Cara One Piece Valor

Cara, the Merfolk Captain.
Dorky fan of humans and pirates, rather muscular, loves her pet land shark.

Ever since she was a kid, Cara had dreamed of being a commander in the Merfolk Guard. By working hard, she managed to get close to her dream and made friends in the Guard. But then a cute mermaid she had a crush on murdered her best friend and framed her for the crime, all to climb up into the rank both her and her friend had occupied. Sentenced to death, Cara managed to escape from prison by having her shark help her wrest free the bars on her window. She promptly fled the Merfolk kingdom to the human lands she'd dreamed of. After spending some time on the human islands, she heard about the daring pirates and Gold Rogers and promptly became excited, deciding to become the greatest pirate captain ever. She promptly began putting into becoming a pirate all the passion she had put into the Merfolk Guard. Meantime, Kasa climbed higher up in the ranks, eventually becoming the leader of the Merfolk Guard...

World concepts: the Merfolk kingdom, possibly the fishmen (either allies or eternal rivals/enemies), the Merfolk Guard

Major NPCs:
Kasa (possibly a different name if you can think of a better one). Think Dahlia Hawthorne as a mermaid, only with actually considerable combat strength. Basically, cuteness belying her actual evilness (she certainly fooled Cara). Blackmailer, framer, murderer, tyrannical commander who's managed to impress the native young king into letting her do whatever she wants.

The other members of the Merfolk guard, Cara's former friends. Some of them take the charges against her seriously, while others don't believe she'd do such a thing. Those that've publicly expressed misgivings about Kasa've wound up in prison or simply disappeared.

Companion
Level Progression: Slow
Cost: 6/4 SP
Effect: You gain access to a Companion. The Companion takes up its own space and has a Move of 4, and defends using your Active Attributes. Companions may substitute defenses as normal, and suffer no penalty for substituting. Companions are immune to the effects of Weaken Cores or status conditions, but any Weaken Core effects applied to you also apply to the Companions as well.
Companions do not possess their own Actions, Skills or Techniques. When using a Technique, you may have the Technique originate from the Companion instead. Companions move on your Move Action. Companions do not have their own Health, whenever a Companion is hit by a Technique, it is disabled and cannot move or have Techniques originate from it. You may use a Support Action to revive a disabled Companion, after which it can be used as normal.
Special: You must take this Skill to take and use any other Skills in the Companion category. If an enemy hits your Companion with a Technique that inflicts damage, they are disabled. If a disabled Companion is within your Zone of Control, you can revive them with a Support Action. Companions share the benefit of any active boosts and Transformations when applicable.
Level Up: You gain access to an additional Companion.

As a Support Action, you may stop riding the Companion, and it re- enters the battle in a space adjacent to you.
