Stephen D. Oscura

"The Man with true plans, the political idealist who raises above all others. The one who gains countless supporters, the man who has the means to take down a whole country all his own from the inside out. The man who caused three islands to break apart and fight against each other, in a massive civil war. Just by using tricks and his words, making the ball roll. One of the main figureheads of the Ametsumi Island Genocide, by using his words again to roll the ball of chaos. The man who uses chaos as his main reason to create his grand vision of a Golden Age, free of corrupt Government and ruled by a single and all knowing being. The man who is the messenger of the Divine and the Demonic Philosopher, who says that he is among the chosen few. To follow the ways of the true God, an angel that was sent before to convert the sinners of this world……….."

—The Jester Prince

Appearance
Stephen has a very mysterious appearance; he is a tall and lean muscled man. But with his size of an average man, he sounds to be a man in mature and cold tones. He is a man in his late 40’s early 50’s, his eyes much like Siam Sao’s are piercing and stabbing at the soul. He smells of a strange combination of both of poisonous gases, cigar smoke and rum. His face has never been revealed, also unlike many of the members of the Hakuri Pirate. Stephen’s outfit doesn’t really change from the per to post time skip, his outfit stays constant.

In both of the time periods, his face is covered in red bandages, save for his right eye and mouth, and he tied two intersecting belts around his head, one passing over where his left eye should be. He wears a long, red cape with an odd, angular cut taken out at the chest, the edges of which are yellow. This cut exposes a similarly oblong white symbol on a pitch-black shirt. Overtop this shirt; Stephen wears what seems to be grey, segmented armor over his sides and abdomen. His legs are covered by a long, black cloth like dress lined with yellow, which itself has several brown straps pinned onto the front, seemingly for no purpose other than to create yet another angular pattern. On a yellow sash that hangs around his waist are three brown pouches, descending downward diagonally on his left hip. These pouches are all identical, all sporting the same design on the top flap, and all closed by a darker brown strap that attaches to a silver button on the right ride, a grey tassel hanging from each button.

Stephen is often seen with some accessories and other things; he is sometimes with a black cane in his hands. Often slamming it onto the ground to get attention or to call something to order. He also is often carrying around a black book, which is believed to be his own journal to keep his ideas and other things together. His main weapon is an axe, which he can summon through the use of his Devil fruit. The axe is a large, double-headed battle axe with a pair of rounded blades and a slit-eye pendant in the middle of its focal point. Despite it being roughly the same size as him, Stephen wields his weapon with a single hand relatively easily.
