The Devil's Fruit

The Yami Yami no Mi, a Logia-type Devil Fruit.

Devil's Fruits are mysterious, mystical fruits that give those who eat them strange, interesting, and perhaps even powerful abilities. Because encounters with them are rare, a number of rumors about them have risen making it difficult to tell whether some things are fact or fiction. The average person knows nothing or very little about what they are. Their potential power makes them highly sought after, even given the drawbacks, making them as priceless as some artifacts.

The Devil Fruit, when consumed, gives the consumer a power or special trait, though they won't immediately become aware of it. They come in different shapes, colors, and all Devil Fruits have swirl marks on them of some kind. There can be only one of each type of fruit at a time. Only one bite is needed for the user to gain the power of a Devil Fruit, after which the Devil Fruit becomes a simple, useless, disgusting fruit. Swallowing the fruit whole has the same effect, or peeling off the skin and eating it piece by piece also works. However, the powers granted by the fruits are nearly impossible to identify without consuming it, so eating one is a major gamble.

With this new power comes a weakness: the sea rejects the new Devil Fruit user and they become helpless while submerged in water. This applies to any standing body of water, but rain or waves don't weaken a Devil Fruit user. If a user is not completely submerged, they can still use their powers from the parts of their body that are above the water.

There are three types of Devil Fruit:
Paramecia: The most common of the three classes, users of Paramecia Devil Fruits gains super-human physical abilities. Other users can alter features of their bodies or their environment. Finally, there are some users than can manipulate and generate some kind of substances.
Zoan: The users of Zoan class Devil Fruits gains the ability to transform into an animal (and acquire every ability affiliated with the said animal). The user can also transform into a human-beast hybrid form. There are Zoan Devil Fruits not only for common animals, but for prehistorical animals and mythological creatures as well.
Logia: The rarest of the three classes, users of Logia Devil Fruits gains the abilities to manipulate and transform themselves into an element. They also gain every ability related to that element and gains the skill to regenerate every part of their bodies (even their whole bodies) from that element.

Devil Fruit in your game
Devil Fruit allow characters interesting new abilities, each fruit being different, but they have one universal flaw. The user automatically fails any Swim checks, and is considered Helpless underwater, being at risk for drowning. The fruits can only be consumed by those who have a working, normal metabolism. Only one Devil Fruit power may be possessed by a single creature; if they consume another, their bodies and soul are ripped apart from the inside, killing them instantly and making it impossible to bring them back by anything less than a Wish spell, which can be used to undo the effects of the last Devil Fruit they ate. They can then be revived normally.

((Creator's note: As this is a work in progress, applying Devil Fruit abilities to objects will be held off until it's clear how it happens, and when I figure out how to work it into the system.))

Gomu Gomu no Mi (Gum-Gum Fruit)
The Gomu Gomu no Mi turns the user's body into rubber, allowing them to stretch their body to amazing lengths at will. The abilities this Devil Fruit grants:

Strength +4.
Immunity to Electricity.
Damage Reduction 5/slashing or piercing. This damage reduction increases by 5 for every 4 HD the user possesses.
The user can increase their reach by a number of feet equal to (Str mod * 10) at will.
Blunt projectiles such as bullets and cannonballs bounce right off of the user's body, dealing no damage.


Bara Bara no Mi (Chop-Chop Fruit)
The Bara Bara no Mi makes the user immune to slashing attacks, and they are able to split their body into pieces, allowing them to control each and every segment of their own will. The abilities this Devil Fruit grants:


Immunity to weapons of the slashing type.
The user can split several parts of their body off at will, as a free action once per round; Head, Torso, either or both of their arms, either or both of their hands, either or both of their legs, and either or both of their feet. Each part must be within 10 ft/HD of another. Aside from their feet, each part has a fly speed equal to half their base ground speed, with perfect maneuverability. Their feet stay on the ground, moving at their base ground speed. Each part is treated as having 1/10th of the user's full HP, and has an AC of 15 (10 base, +5 Dodge) plus the user's Dexterity modifier. The user's hands can be manipulated as normal, making attacks as a Dancing weapon, whether they have a weapon in hand or not. When two parts are adjacent to each other they can combine again as a free action, combining their HP, until every part of the user is combined again.


Yomi Yomi no Mi
This Devil's Fruit allows the user to come back to life after dying at their choice, as the True Resurreccion spell. This can be used once in their lifetime, but isn't limited by any amount of time since the death. A soul has to spend time looking for their body, however, be it in the most insignificant speck possible. This requires a DC15 Knowledge (the planes) check to acknowledge what plane the body died on, a DC 20 Knowledge (geography) check to acknowledge what region or area within 100 miles/HD the body died in, and a DC25 Search check to find the body each day. Checks need to be done in order, and if the user passes one check, they need not do it again before they find their body.

Samu Samu no Mi (Samu-Samu Fruit)
This Devil's Fruit makes the user automatically fail all Perform(comedy) checks. Their jokes are utterly horrible.

Gero Gero no Mi
This Devil's Fruit makes the user so hideous, all NPCs are treated as one step less friendly than they usually would be unless they cover themselves up sufficiently (DC 10 Disguise check).

The only ones that have actually appeared so far were the twinning and oil fruits; most of the effects I just adlib, but as for logia I figured as Regeneration = HD, bypass with bodies of water, seastone, or specific vulnerability.
