➳abilities / powers; Nami is a highly skilled navigator and cartographer, showing an uncanny talent even as a young girl. Her ability to predict weather patterns is borderline supernatural, seeming to sense them with her body. She's able to steer ships safely through dangerous waters even while life-threateningly ill and on the most unpredictable sea. She's also an incredible thief, hence her epithet, and places great value in money. Often leaving battles to steal the foe's treasure or pickpocketing useful items from them.
➳weapons; Nami's abilities allow her to use the Clima-Tact, an extendable and collapsible rod that manipulates weather to powerful results. She can handle herself without it, but mostly in regards to stamina and intelligence rather than strength.
➳personality; After many years in an unsafe environment, Nami has learned how to disguise her true feelings from those who would harm her. She comes across distant and guarded to strangers, some would even say cold, but it's far from her genuine self. Nami is a bold, spirited woman who is unafraid of standing up for what she believes in. She's extremely empathetic to those who have gone through tragedy (especially children) and refuses to ignore cries for help. But she's also fairly greedy and manipulative, all treasure her crew obtains automatically goes to her first, and she's not above charming people into submission (or outright threatening them).
➳history; A marine officer named Bellemere adopted Nami and her sister Nojiko after surviving a harsh battle and finding the two girls alone and likely orphaned. Bellemere decided that she was going to turn her life around and become the best mother she could possibly be to the young girls, but love can't always provide what money can. The family was poor, Bellemere's livelihood coming from her tangerine farm that simply didn't earn them consistent wages. Nami grew up wearing Nojiko's secondhand clothes, and Bellemere resorted to skipping meals in order to have enough for her daughters. When pirates captained by a cruel fishman named Arlong sieged their village, they demanded ransom money. Anyone who couldn't pay, would die. Bellemere had enough either for herself, or for her two daughters. To her, the choice was simple. Nami was then recruited into the Arlong Pirates as a cartographer. Arlong had offered her a deal: if she could raise enough money to buy the village back they'd all be free, but until then she's an official member of his crew. The following years were filled with blood, sweat and tears as Nami switched between stealing money from other pirates and drawing maps for the man who murdered her mother and held her village hostage. Then she met Monkey D. Luffy. The boy who just wouldn't give up on her, even when she stole his ship and treasure, even when she did everything in her power to drive him away. The boy who destroyed Arlong Park, stood atop its rubble, and yelled for all to hear: "You're a part of my crew!" ...And so she was.
