When I make fan OCs, I do it right. My goal was to make a crew that you could easily see existing in One Piece. I like to think I succeeded.

Meet the Calico Pirates, lead by captain "Calico" Jack Rackham, the user of the Metal Metal Fruit (logia). His name comes from the real life pirate who both Jack Sparrow and Red Rackham were based on, and the creator of the iconic Jolly Roger. Why Oda hasn't used this name yet is beyond me. Maybe's got bigger plans than mine, who knows.

If I had the time, I'd turn this in to a full fledged fan comic styled after the movies and mail it straight to Oda as a love letter. But I don't, so I won't. Maybe one day.

Calico crew members, from left to right are as such-
Petro (Lion Fish Fishman, shoots poison darts from his wrist), Herne Herne (the crew's master huntsman) , Brigid Belenus (the crew's doctor), Kipp (the crew's engineer and user of the Monkey Monkey Fruit), Jack Rackham (the crew's captain and user of the Metal Metal Fruit), Primo Carne (the crew's cook/first mate and an expert boxer), Macha (the crew's navigator and former resident of skypiea), Tom P. Hobbes (the crew's historian and user of the Yarn Yarn Fruit), Arawn (expert swordsman and spiritual adviser)

Most names are taken either from historical figures or celtic dieties, not sure why I chose celtic. (Petro and Kipp are completely made up) One of them is a linguistic pun, as Oda loves to make. Primo Carne is named after the famous italian boxer, Primo Carnera, but the name "Primo Carne" directly translates to "first meat". He is both the cook and the "first mate". Hehe.
