He wears a red leather jacket, maroon armored tasset, white poofy pants with a flame design, armored boots, and his signature headband. After the timeskip, Corey is now shirtless with bandages wrapped around his arms, waist, and around his neck. He no longer has his ponytail and now has a spiky hair appearance. He wears black, baggy pants with a white belt around his waist. He still dons his read headband, and has black leather boots. In both however, Corey has a skinny, yet very toned physique. He carries around two katana swords, wearing them around his waist. He also has a tatoo of a spear impaling a man, symbolizing that he was once a slave.

Personality
Corey is polite, spunky, and energetic during the pre-time skip. At the beginning of the time skip however, he becomes moody, depressed, and conflicted. He eventually works up to becoming his old self. In both however, he treats his crew like a family. When a crewmate or friend gets wounded, injured, or killed, he goes ballistic. His happy-go-lucky is now changed into a more violent, dark Corey.

Swordsman
Corey is experienced in dual sword combat. He doesn't remember how he learned the skills, but he uses them to an advantage. He deals out swift, but deadly strikes that can do some serious damage to the average man.

Martial Artist
Corey will use hand to hand combat during his fights if needed, or by request. He is experienced in Judo and Shotokan Karate.

Agility
Corey is very agile in combat, and is not afraid to show it. He is very flexible, that means his back can bend to an extent. Corey also is very fast when it comes to running. But his relexes are his strongest point.

Endurance
No matter how many times he gets knocked down, whether it's by a fist, hammer, or cannon, he will get back up and continue fighting. He can last a pretty long time in battle before becoming fatigued.

Strength
Corey Talbain has enough strength to stop a bull from charging, punch through walls (even though he prefers slashing), lift objects twice his weight.

Kenbunshoku Haki
Corey has mastered this Haki, and is one of the only crew members to do so. Before timeskip, he can only sense eight hundred meters away. After the time skip, not only can he sense two miles away, but can some what predict the future.

Busoshoku Haki
Corey has is experienced in this Haki. He uses it in a few techniques of his. He usually uses it for his swords, but rarely uses it for armor.

Devil Fruit
Eating the Hito Hito no Mi Model: Demon at the age of eight, Corey was granted the rage of a demon, one of the varying affects of the Devil fruit also granting him the three infamous levels of the Demon. Before the timeskip he could hardly control it, causing him to go into a demon frenzy each time he's near death. Eventually, he learns to master level one, but could only remain in level two for only an hour. After the timeskip, Corey can maintain level two for hours on end, and can maintain level three for only a half hour.

Will of D.
As in Corey's name, he has the powerful Will of D. This grants him very incredible constitution and willpower, but doesn't grant him the Haoshoku Haki. He can survive almost anything. He's still killable, but it takes more then average means to kill him.
