#[Captain Josep Frascona]

[artofimmy]

Tried doing the Color Wheel Meme as a coloring exercise. It ended up not just being a success, but it REALLY helped me grasp coloring in ways I couldn't before, like limiting a palette per character, keeping an eye on values and saturation, and other things of color theory that, while I know what they are, I have a difficult time implementing it.

Some colors are swapped around on some characters like Rashid's kaftan and cloak, while others like Giovanni, Frascona, and Guy are given adjusted hues not only appropriate of color theory, but even what colors would have been available during the early 18th century. Ruixiong may be unusual given that deep purple would have been impossible to obtain unless you're swimming in money, but hey, it's color practice, he probably stole the dyes and made Abena make his hanfu, or just outright stole from a rich person. Or have the Master give him the bajillion sea snails needed to make the dye WHO CARES?

No, Ulan isn't really that blue.

“Happy holidays, everyone. Eh… hope you all survive the Mariahpocalypse.”

"...the boat has STAMINA?!"

"What kind of a boat has stamina?!"

"Especially one that requires furling up your sails to recover?"

"Nevermind apparently all you need to man it is to just have one person behind the helm and no one else."

"Splendid!! Hey, Devil Pirates!! Our boat doesn't need a whole crew to man it too!"

Oh, no. La Demonia Roja groans as one of her scuppers very slowly leaks water.

Giovanni sobs as he hugs one of the masts. "It's okay, Demonia!! You're still special to us!"

"You made our ship cry!! FIRE!!"

It only took one rinky dink canonball to sink the Hurley Crew's ship instantly.

"OH WHAT THE BLOODY HELL??!!"

"Just gather a couple trees and you can repair your boat."

"But these trees are already harvested despite no one having come here!"

"That's a you problem, then."

(Sins of the sea) Frascona smirks. “Come on, kid,” he states towards Otto. “You can do better than that.”

(Thanks for the @sins-of-the-sea)

"......."

"...I know what you're trying to do, Captain. I'd appreciate it, if you'd stop. You really don't want me to do better than that."

[sins-of-the-sea]

Flop.

[lookthedevilintheeye]

I have no idea what Captain Ravyn and Abena are fighting over. Whoever stole that beautiful candelabra, who got the last chocolate chip cookie, who has the most wonderful husband, who suggested Omar rob a bank all by himself with just a stick and a ball of twine, it can be anything.

Not to mention it’s just outright rude for a man to interrupt a ladies��� fight.

[sins-of-the-sea]

Wheezes as he crawls out of the sea and onto the beach.

Oops, he got yoinked back into the depths.

Etchnicity: arab, european hispanic (Iberian Peninsula).

One picture you like best of your character:

Sorry y'all I'm gonna have to break the rules here because I can't just choose ONE picture I like best😔 here we go:

[First (1) image of Rotgut smiling mischievously is not the mun's art; it is a part of an art trade with the artist @crazy-eyed-doggo on Instagram ; second (2) image of Rotgut has been drawn in an exaggerated cartoonish style to re-imagine what the character would look like if he were a villain in shows like Powerpuff Girls/Billy&Mandy ; third (3) image of Rotgut is directly referencing this meme video. Translation: "and in return, you sign your ass, over to me." ; fourth (4) is a video of Rotgut introducing himself, with two drawings put together featuring his voiceclaim.]

Three h/cs you've never told anyone:

Rotgut enjoys crossdressing! He's curious to experiment with his own gender sometimes, either that or he just wants to feel pretty in a different look. (It's one of those rare cases where he will shower and clean himself up NOT because he's expecting to get laid lol)

Rotgut has collected a good amount of objects and trinkets during his 800 years of life. From old coins that you'd find displayed in a museum today; to ancient books (diaries or bibles), jewelry and clothes.

Sometimes he will go on for so long being unclean (we're talking decades) that actual fungi will start to grow on his body/clothes, specifically stinkhorn mushrooms.

Three things your character likes doing in their free time:

Sex and reading porn aside (to the surprise of absolutely nobody) Gut enjoys watching soap operas and reading classic tragic romance books. (William Shakespeare would be his favourite author in this case)

Playing with marbles. Always brings a bag with him if he's going on a trip!!

Try new recipes while cooking. He likes to expand/improve his cuisine. Sometimes asks Cornelius for guidance or tips.

Eight people your character likes/loves:

His kids, all 30 of them but for the sake of this dash game we will assume that counts as one <3

Himself ofc.

August. (his plague bestie!!)

Edgar the Bug (Men in Black)

Jeremiah.

Taryn.

Cornelius/Versy.

Captain Josep Frascona.

Two things your character regrets:

(During moments of self-awareness) he regrets the person he's become now. He knows his behaviour is unlikeable and indecent, because of this ofc most everyone around him hates him or is scared of him- which leads him to not being able to bring his kids out in public (or alternatively, he gives them a bad reputation when they become adults because of who they're related to) because he's scared they might get hurt as a result of people who hate him; he knows it's his fault for this outcome, but he hates everyone around him (that aren't his children) and just refuses to let go. He resents humanity for how much he has been pushed around, mocked and hurt physically in the past for just existing. He doesn't think anyone is worthy of recieving genuine kindness because deep down they're all just as disgusting as he is. This leads to ego and self-importance that makes him feel superior to others because he's not scared of showing just how revolting one can be + he's not human anymore + he's immortal + he can control/speak to hoards of cockroaches.

He also regrets having placed his distaste for humanity so high he's passed it down on his first generation of children. For the most part, this has caused a few of his children to distance themselves from him, like for example Judith and Kolvenik, which hurt him deeply. Kolvenik flat out blames his father and his hatred for humanity as to why he's developed his genetic disorder that has caused him to permanently shed off his human disguise as he got older (which is completely incorrect just to clarify; how Rotgut feels towards mankind has nothing to do with Kolvenik's genetic issue, he just hates and resents his father mostly as a form of projecting his own self-hatred living as a humanoid bug monster that can't have a human form).

Rotgut tries to better himself non-stop when it comes to raising his newest kids, because he wants to see them be happy and make friends and connections, be likeable and be liked by others regardless of what species they are, unlike him. This makes him a bit hypocritical since when he's on his own, he openly goes back to his old ways & antics- with his kids however he just kind of puts on a mask.

Two phobias your character has:

Philophobia -> fear of genuinely falling in love.

Athazagoraphobia -> fear of being forgotten by loved ones/forgetting someone important to him.

"Watching the men play 'chicken fight' in the pool is always a joy!

"That is, granted, you exclude Giovanni, Phoebus, and Rashid."

"That just leaves me, Ruixiong, and Guy!! Unless you join and make it an even 2 vs 2!"

"Only if Rashid is on my team."

"Ha ha."

"No, he should stick with Phoebus. At the very least if Phoebus is riding on Rashid's shoulders and the worst happens to him, he still won't fall off."

"That's why Rashid is banned from playing too! And Gio if he takes on gold form! Which he can do a lot!"

"You're all killjoys."

"Well, it's also because you two tend to displace the water in the pool."

"Gold will be gold."

[lookthedevilintheeye]

After a particularly bitter battle where the Crew of the Barracuda obtained a Key of St. Emilio...

"Oh, seriously? We won this battle, Captain Wrath can eat my ass."

[sins-of-the-sea]

"Why did they use the term 'orgy'?!!?"

"Because that's what it is?"

"This is an educational show!! They should-"

"Oh, it's educational, all right! Look at how the little froggies are jumping across Alpine snow!! I didn't know there are frog species capable of living in the Alps! And look how promising those spawn are! They're going to hatch into big, beautiful babies!"

"I guess I'm glad you're taking something from this...."

"And not you, Mister Naturalist Wannabe?"

"They used the word 'orgy' in an educational program!!"

The TV: "Frogs... in the hundreds race towards the water. None want to miss ... the annual orgy."

"An-yer-al....... orgy..."

[sins-of-the-sea]

”You need a horse to joust? I thought you needed a spear? or another pole like weapon. It seems to me anyone with at least one hand and two feet could hold the pole weapon in place and charge at an opponent… but it has to be a horse for it to be real jousting Josep-San?” Kaban is of course picturing Friends not regular animals.

"Oh, jousting can be done on foot! That's one of the first things I had to master first while horseback riding had to be practiced separately before both were combined eventually."

Blink blink.

"Though I suppose on this island it's less horseback and more horse....shoulders?? Wouldn't that just be a game of 'chicken fight' or just 'chicken' but with running and-

"Wait, no, forget what I said! Does this island even know what 'playing chicken' even means?!"

Character Headcanon Generator

"NO!! CEASE!! OR ELSE-"

"Huh. Not bad. I do like synth and the '80s metal scene..."

"Not going to admit you put Madonna and Cyndi Lauper on during long car drives?"

"I like them!!"

"Well, it does explain why she is terrible in the kitchen..."

"I swore I turned the burner off!"

"That doesn't explain why the galley was flooded with boiling water!!"

"Is it really 'headcanon' if it's actual canon?"

"Shut up."

"Don't we know it. You never did explained to me how you had four squid beaks somehow latched onto your face at 4 AM. Sober."

"*Grumble.* I lost a bet with Guy."

"That raises more questions!"

"Once again--Is it really 'headcanon' if it's actual canon?"

"Now if we change the 'eat' part to 'swallow'..."

"NO!!!"

"We say it one more time--Is it really 'headcanon' if it's actual-"

"We get it! *Sob!*"

"UWAAAAAH!!"

"It's okay, Giovanni! We're all going to Hell!"

"UWAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!"

"Not helping, Captain."

"Cease."

[sins-of-the-sea]

"Don't remind my crew I was trained in and have participated in joust back home in Barcelona prior to me running away from home in the early 1500s. For one, I never won a proper duel or tournament. Secondly, we currently don't have a horse, nor can we afford to care for one in the ship. And third...

"Who jousts nowadays outside of equestrian theatrics? I'm not going to get myself hired in Medieval Times just to show off what my father trained me to do five hundred years ago."

[sins-of-the-sea]

"Sorry, that isn't the case for mine or my Crew's. It's already sold off in a contract. If you want it, dispute over it with our Master. Maybe you can strike a deal-"

"No. Hands off."

"Okay then."

{{ L }} " Your Soul is Mine. "

[sins-of-the-sea]

"Ewww. Josep."

His snort-laughing is reaching next levels of ugly.
