Sogeking's Story:
Soge King was originally Usopp of the Straw Hats pirate crew. Usopp had been kidnapped and bought onto the sea train that headed
towards Enies Lobby, the place where criminals are held and are to never see the light of day again (Ahh kowai ;_;).
On the same train, his former crew mate, Nico Robin, is also being bought to Enies Lobby.
Sanji, a member of the Straw Hats pirate crew pursued Robin onto the train to save her. While kicking an incredibly huge amount of ass
he randomly bumped into Usopp who was hopelessly tied up in a bunch of chains and wrapped up in a sack. Sanji explained the situation
to Usopp and told him Robin had to be captured in order to let all members of the Straw Hats crew to escape safely from a town called Water 7, Including Usopp.
Touched on the inside, Usopp pretended to not give a dang about Robin since he had already left the crew, however he follows his former crew to rescue her
in a diguise no one would ever see through! As Soge King!
Character Description:
Sogeking wears a yellow mask which somehow resembles that of a mexican with implanted lenses! Binoculars no more!
...It also looks like the sun with the blinding yellowness only missing a few more of its rays.
He also has a fwooshing crimson cape that wraps around his shoulders, flying behind him and reaching down to his feet, very heroic indeed.
Sogeking now carries around a giant green slingshot that's as tall as him, superly powerful too as he launches
giant fireballs burning down flags. Apparently the name of his sling shot is called "Kabuto" (Pokemon anyone? xD).
To try to keep his identity secret He changes the way he speaks (slightly), the sharp quirky voice that belonged to Usopp
has been replaced with a deepened tone and he addresses people with "San" and "Kun" on the end of their names.
During times of panic, he sings along to his Sogeking theme song to keep up his courage while his knees are still quivering with fear.
(Don't give up and don't forget we're rooting for you Sogeking!).
