Character Profile: Eustass "Captain" Kid

Basic Information

Appearance

General: A tall, muscular man with a pale complexion and bright red hair styled like flames. He has no eyebrows and wears dark lipstick.
Distinguishing Marks: Following the timeskip, he is heavily scarred on the left side of his face and body. He lost his left arm in a battle against the Red-Haired Pirates, replacing it with a mechanical prosthetic made of scrap metal.
Attire: He typically wears a large, fur-collared captain’s coat draped over his shoulders, open-fronted vests, and yellow trousers with black spots.

Personality

Aggressive & Quick-Tempered: Kid is notoriously violent and prone to lashing out at the slightest provocation. He is the polar opposite of Luffy’s "fun-loving" pirate ideal, often killing civilians who laughed at his dream of finding the One Piece.
Fearless Ambition: He possesses an indomitable will and refuses to back down from any challenge, even against the Yonko. He is deeply proud and hates being looked down upon.
Loyalty to his Crew: Despite his cruelty toward enemies, he has a deep bond with his childhood friend and partner, Killer, and the rest of his crew.
