Name: Usopp
Age: 16 (?)
Gender: Male
Personality: Usopp is a compulsive liar, but most of the time it’s harmless. He’s... quite exaggerated in every way, and tends to overreact to things. He likes to be the one to make people smile or laugh, and is quite prideful of whatever he does. However, he can also be very moody when pushed over the edge, and wears his heart on his sleeve, unwilling and unable to hide his emotions. He can be a softie at times, and is quite fun-loving and enthusiastic. He loves all of his friends dearly and would fight to the end for them.
Despite this, Usopp is quite well known for his cowardice, and has a tendency to make up excuses (particularly fake diseases such as "I'lldieifIgoonthatisland disease") to stay away from dangerous situations, and often cries when things go wrong. When a situation really calls for it though, he can push that aside and step up to the plate, even if it’s not his favourite thing in the world to do. He would far prefer to run away from a fight than face it.
Usopp has a cheery and upbeat demeanour on the surface, but is self-proclaimed to be the king of negativity. This has been proven for a fact. Usopp acts as a shipwright- though minimally skilled- a mechanic, a lookout, and most prominently as a sniper, with his weapon of choice being a slingshot and self-made projectiles, ranging anywhere from rubber bands (not an exaggeration. He calls it the "Usopp-Rubber-Band of Doom") to explosives to shurikens (ninja stars) and is the master of crafting new tools and weapons.
Usopp is very sensitive in every way and often denies it, although it’s very visible, but even in the middle of an emotional breakdown, most of the time, he ends up coming around when he needs to. Sometimes he doesn’t know when it’s time to let things go, and has to be pushed in the right direction. Despite his apparent idiocy, Usopp is- disturbingly- often one of the more mature members of the Straw Hat pirates. He’s very determined and focused, and is a fast-thinker at his finest, and a sharpshooter. He’s not particularly confident, but... he’s trying.
Usopp has a dream to become a brave warrior of the sea. He’s trying his best, but old habits die hard. He often feels inferior and useless to the crew in comparison to the likes of Luffy and Zoro, and has in the past expressed this.
History: Usopp was born and raised in Syrup Village. When he was very young, his mother fell ill, and Usopp tried to make her better by shouting that pirates were coming, and that maybe his father was coming home. This did not make his mother any better, but it did lift her spirits. Even after his mother passed on, Usopp still shouted about the pirates coming. He spent some time alone after his mother's death, and eventually befriended the young lady Kaya, to whom he told his false stories gladly, and was delighted when she appeared to soak them up, even if she didn’t particularly believe them.
Usopp founded the "Usopp Pirates", which were a small band of youth running around with wooden swords screaming "Arrrrr!" and more or less playing pretend, with Usopp as their Captain, until Luffy and Zoro showed up in Syrup Village and recruited him so he could follow his dream and become a brave warrior of the sea one day. Kaya granted them their ship the Going Merry as a gift and sent them off. Usopp has sailed with the crew ever since, pursuing his dream actively and...doing his best, even if most of the time, he’s not really all that successful.
