Runners Roan

Runners Roan (ランアーズ • ロアン) is the sharpshooter of the Turncoat Pirates, as well as one of Shigel's best friends and a former member of the Donquixote Pirates, defecting after becoming increasingly fond of Dasai and Cinth.

Background
Roan was born in Zou but raised in Dressrosa with his adoptive mother, finding a place in Corrida Colosseum after she fell sick and was left in the care of a local doctor who would later become his stepfather. Doflamingo had already taken over the country by then and the Warlord recognized the boy's potential as a warrior, offering him a place in his pirate crew.

In order to stop him from worrying about his family, Doflamingo had Sugar turn Roan's family into toys, leaving the couple in a dungeon where Roan would never find them. However, despite being a part of the Donquixote Pirates, Roan wasn't on particularly great terms with other residents of the castle because they knew of his status as a mink-and-giant hybrid.

This built up a certain insecurity within Roan, resulting in him always hiding his face, tail and fur.

He wasn't an executive and was known as someone with relatively large amounts of influence, but he was poor and continued to fight in the Colosseum to win prizes as it was the only thing he knew how to do.

Once Joon-K, Salar, Cinth and Dasai arrived, the latter two being placed in the same block as Roan, he found himself being spoken to by the two humans. Unaccustomed to this behavior, he attempted to close off but became shy, following them around like a lost puppy. Eventually they came to trust each other and Roan revealed himself as a half-mink and was shocked by their uncaring and passive response, having a complete disregard for his race and still treating him the same, but being more mindful of how they spoke.

Touched, when they revealed they were here waiting for their captain (as pirates), Roan insisted he help them escape.

Appearance
Roan is a very tall teenage cheetah mink with curly dirty blond hair and amber eyes. Because of his inhuman appearance, Roan usually wears a brown hoodie with a wide black arrow up the front, several gun rounds attached to the inside with a pair of handguns in holsters on his either hip.
