Borbas Koganusan

''“This is not our purpose! This is not Justice! This is murder of the blackest kind, and I will condone it no longer.” ''– Borbas Koganusan, shortly before the Drusus Incident.

Borbas Koganusan is a former Marine Rear Admiral, turned pirate captain and loose Revolutionary Army ally. Trained for the Marines since a young age, he rose to the position of Rear Admiral before a crisis of conscience - followed by a crime of passion -  drove him to desert the Marines and sail the seas to remain true to his ideals. Reserving a seething hatred for the Marines and the World Government as a whole, Borbas seeks to disrupt and ruin Government operations wherever possible, which has lead to a number of incredible victories – most notably, the wounding of Admiral Kizaru, the deaths of Vice Admirals Onigumo and Greer, and the Sack of Fort Korenis.

Commanding a pirate crew known as the Reaver Pirates, Borbas haunts the seas of the Grand Line and Blues alike. The crew ally with other crews as necessary, usually to bring down larger or more dangerous crews. Crews defeated by the Reavers are offered the chance to become allied to the group, with the subordinates being considered equals to them. The Reaver Pirates’ fleet is centred around the captured Marine Buster Call ship No Quarter, formerly the Divine Justice.

More recently, Borbas has begun a bloody campaign against Marine holdings across the world, with the Reaver fleet launching attacks on multiple Marine fortresses and convoys worldwide. This has led to the death of at least one Marine Vice Admiral, the destruction of at least two battleships, and the reassignment of multiple task forces to stem the Reaver’s rampage.

Appearance
“Damned be I if I take Quarter, or give any to you, Vice Admiral!” – Borbas Koganusan

Koganusan wears the classical suit-and-coat of the Marines’ Vice Admirals, albeit altered to fit his outsize frame. The coat he wears as a cape; it bears numerous signs of battle damage, severely burned at the edges and holed by musket shots. Partly to mock the Marines, the ‘classical’ Jolly Roger has been stitched onto the coat’s back and the front of his suit. Borbas keeps his black hair shaven, and sports several scars across his face from old injuries.

Following the time skip, Koganusan display several alterations to his appearence. His coat is more visibly damaged, and he wears gloves to hide the severe burn scars on his hands from a run-in with an old rival. His face has been tattooed to create a shadowed effect around each eye, and his teeth are filed to sharpened points as a means of intimidation. One of his ears has been partly cut away. Finally, he has taken to carrying a sword once held by a deceased crewmate, supposedly to honour his memory and sacrifice.
