Volume 1 Important Character Archetypes

Volume 1 Important Character Archetypes

Almost all the important characters in the original "ONEPIECE" have prototypes, such as the real-life "Blackbeard" Edward Teach, Oda is very fond of him, and his name is divided into "Whitebeard" Edward Newgate and "Blackbeard" Marshall. D. Titch has two heavyweight roles.

It's a very interesting easter egg method and characteristics, and I hope to follow one or two, so the important characters in this book also have archetypes.

On the other hand, since it is an easter egg, there should be a surprise, the archetypes of the important characters in this book are not all casually found and pressed, the archetypes are often inextricably linked with the experience, background or personality of the characters in the novel, and intelligent and careful readers are likely to combine the details of the book, as well as the character archetypes, guess a lot of things, and feel the fun of easter eggs.

The initial gang of three, Ah Jin, Wallon, and Alamis, the three are actually the "three musketeers" of the protagonist William, so in addition to Ah Jin as the original character, the other two prototypes are actually characters in the novel "Three Musketeers", and the "Blackbeard" classmates in this group have guessed earlier.

Wallonia: Based on the protagonist of "The Three Musketeers", Du Wallon (Bordos), Wallon in "The Three Musketeers" is loyal and brave, but is crushed to death by a boulder while helping his companions, and is the first of the main characters to die.

Aramis: Based on the eponymous protagonist of The Three Musketeers, he has a bright mind and is more ruthless than his companions.

Edmond: The prototype is the protagonist of "The Count of Monte Cristo", Edmond Dantès, "The Count of Monte Cristo" is also known as "The Revenge of Monte Cristo", the whole film almost revolves around the word "revenge", the old version of the lieutenant general wrote this character to death, old readers have been speculating about what his result will be this time, easter eggs are here, this individual old readers feel that the character they like is not dead, but it still represents "revenge" This background, which leads to the story of the second volume, and, like the archetypal characters, grows after experiencing setbacks and tribulations.

Tony: The name of the protagonist in the classic gangster movie Scarface starring Al Pacino, the prototype of Tony in this book, Manny and Angie are the names of Tony's two subordinates in the movie.

Geseta: In the 10th century, the Venetian copper dollar was called "Geseta", as the world's trade center at that time, a rich commercial area, there were many local handicraft practitioners, so it provided the soil for the survival of tabloids and other institutions that published business information, at first the tabloids were irregularly and sold along the street, the price was one copper dollar, and later this tabloid spread to all parts of Europe, known as Venetian Geseta.

Oliver: The protagonist of "Orphan of the Fog", Edmund saved him in the old version, and in the new version, he saved Edmund.

Arcatio, Aureliano: The Buendía family is based on characters from One Hundred Years of Solitude, in short, this family is a thief.

The three Redbeard brothers, Barbarossa, Hayreddin, and Reis: the names of all three are based on the famous Arab pirates in the history of the earth, Barbarossa "Redbeard" Hayreddin, and Reis is one of the Turkish aliases. The historical Redbeard was both a sailor, a pirate, and a naval marshal of the Ottoman Turkish Empire. As mentioned in this book, there are pirates who wrap pirate flags and throw them on the docks to give them to civilians, referring to the legend of Redbeard.

Norton I: Joshua Norton, the real American emperor in history, was born in England, came to San Francisco in the western United States due to the gold rush, but went bankrupt overnight and became penniless, and finally went crazy and declared himself the emperor of the United States, he became the mascot of the local newspaper and the government to raise his popularity, but it is said that in addition to the self-proclaimed emperor, he behaved more normally and also had a heart to cheer up, but unfortunately it did not have any use.

Morgan William: The main characters are based on two well-known historical figures.

"Henry Morgan" was one of the most famous pirates in the 17th century British invasion of the Spanish Caribbean colonies, who became a pirate leader at a young age, and his status was both an official and a thief, with wisdom and courage from a sea newcomer to a famous pirate, general, governor, and founded the "Pirate Code" to establish the order of piracy.

"'William I'", also known as "William the Conqueror", was originally the Duke of Normandy, known as the "illegitimate son" William, when his cousin Edward the Confessor of England died without an heir, and the great nobleman Harold was proclaimed, William used the excuse that Edward had promised the throne during his lifetime, so he crossed the sea to invade England, defeated his rivals and proclaimed himself king, called William I, known as "William the Conqueror" William.

William I reused and divided the lands to the Normans, suppressed the Anglo-Saxon aristocracy, forced the allegiance of the lords, compiled the Doomsday Book, and was one of the most influential monarchs of the European Middle Ages, whose influences included changes in rulers, changes to the English language, and changes in the upper hierarchy of society and the church.

In addition, it must be mentioned that the Normans were actually a remnant of the original Vikings.

The Vikings and their descendants, once along the river into the interior, robbed Rouen and besieged Paris, although they failed to conquer Paris, but robbed the agricultural areas in the east of France, and finally took the indemnity Shi Shiran left, but did not withdraw to Northern Europe, but settled in Normandy, and later the French king recognized the status of these robbers in Normandy, awarded them the title of duke, and the Vikings also "reciprocated", and in turn recognized the status of the French king.

So strictly speaking, "Conqueror" William is actually a pirate king.
