THE THEM!!!

A reference sheet for a snail themed pirate named Calypso. They are yellow with pink extremities like a sunset, with dark hair and bangs covering their eyes. They wear cropped shorts and suspenders, jewelry, and have a large blue shell on their back.

 On the left is a standing pose to show many details. On the right is a handful of doodles. The one at the top shows a fighting pose and is labeled "Fishman Tai Chi". The middle has them grinning with laughter bubbles, each saying 'purupurupuru' to mimic the sounds of a den den mushi ringing (labeled "den den mushi laugh"). The bottom has them holding a den den mushi in one hand, and seemingly telepathically connecting to it with the snail like stalks coming from their hair (labeled snail telepathy). 

In the middle there is a large title for the name (Calypso), a color pallette, and idenitfying details about the character. "Sea Snail Fishman" (for race) "They/Them" (for pronouns) and "Age 39" - "292 cm (9'2)" (for age and height).

ALL HAIL THE SNAIL !!! The One, The Only, the ass kicking, wire tapping, telepathic snail pirate-- they're here to eat raw lettuce and bench press ships: EVERYBODY GIVE IT UP FOR CALYPSO!!! ((Booming Crowd Cheer SFX))

Ok to be very for real, this originally started as a complete joke concept... but I've grown to love this character immensely. The first fan character I make in half a decade and it's a One Piece OC. Luckily im not the only one-- I hope to be posting more about the little fan crew me and some good friends have made, with each of us having our own weirdos to flesh out the ranks. For now, a little bit about Cal ! Former member of the Sun Pirates, now set off on their own adventure with a rookie crew, Calypso is a sea snail fishman who serves as a first mate, informant slash tactician, and emergency navigator. Their snail heritage gives them the unique ability to tap into the telepathic frequencies of den den mushi, and their penchant for digging up secrets without explanation has given them quite the reputation as some sort of oracle.... and they're more than fine with not correcting people on it.

For (eventually?) more about Calypso, their toyhou.se page can be found here!
