Character personality: Marvelous is a man that keeps his true self and intentions masked, with varying levels of success. On the outside, he is a pirate through and through. He is rebellious and takes orders from no man. If he sees something he wants, he takes it, and if he sees anything he doesn't like, or something that bothers him, he wrecks them.
Often times, he can come across seemingly disinterested or annoyed with something if it isn't a part of his goals. Other times, if it's something he finds exciting, he will follow it through with an enthusiasm that is next to impossible to stop. However, throughout everything, he will often come across people in need or those that need saving...
In the end, he always ends up helping these people. Many times, that disinterest is feigned. He will shrug off any praise for helping people, will not dare call himself a hero, and will laugh or roll his eyes at anyone who does. He is a pirate, and he has a reputation to uphold. But despite how rough around the edges he may be, how much he may not APPEAR to care about the perils of those in danger, he is at his heart a good man. As a good man, he will always find a way to do the right thing in the end... even if he has to make up an excuse to cover his good deed.
Protecting dreams is very important to him, as is protecting his crew. His crew is his family, and those he cares the most about. Anything that puts them in danger will be faced with a gun and/or sword to the face. He will do ANYTHING to protect the other Gokaigers, no matter how much danger it puts his own health in. It is not just his crew's dreams that are important, though - upon realizing his own view of what it means to be a leader and a Captain, he has come to realize the importance of protecting the dreams of those who can't otherwise do it for himself. He will, of course, do this in a pirate fashion... but as it is said above, he will usually find a way to do the right thing in that regard.
So while he may come across to others as uncouth or uncaring, or even a sarcastic or greedy asshole, he does care quite a bit. Far more than one would think upon first impression. He is a pirate first, but in the end, he is also the leader of a Super Sentai. Both of these are now badges he wears with the utmost honor.
Digimon partner personality: Machalcon is, to put things mildly, eccentric. In his previous form, before he was tamed by the Gokaigers, he ran wildly and free across the Engine World, breaking every traffic law in sight as he sought to just race as far and as fast as he could. He even dismissed the words of his parents, Speedor and BeaRV. Cocky and rowdy, even after he mellowed a bit, he was still always concerned about hitting things at full speed with his engines always revved and ready to go at a moment's notice.
Now, however, he's been stuck in the body of a Digimon. He has no wheels, he lacks the speed he once had, and actually is actually a lot more vulnerable than he's used to ever having been, in spite of his new found ability to evolve. This frustrates him terribly, something he tries to hide from Marvelous... and does so very poorly, and is likely to get him several swift kicks in the ass. Now that he is NOT a giant robot race car, though, his mouth is liable to get him in a lot of trouble. He has quite the habit of shooting it off, quickly and often.
He is completely loyal to Marvelous and all the Gokaigers. He pretty much thinks himself a Gokaiger anyway, so he's just as protective of them as Marvelous might be. They were people who accepted him for what he is, and that is something he is not liable to forget anytime soon.
Character abilities: Marvelous is skilled with numerous weapons and fighting styles, but his largest skill lies in a keen swordsmanship and pinpoint marksmanship. He is no slouch in hand to hand combat, either.
Even untransformed, Marvelous can summon up and wield his Gokai Gun and Gokai Saber. The Gokai Gun has seemingly infinite ammo, firing small round bullets, but only tends to provide minimal damage against armored opponents. The Gokai Saber is an extremely strong blade, meanwhile. It is theoretically possible to utilize his "Final Wave" attacks detailed below untransformed, but it would likely end up hurting him in some manner or another, so it's not generally ADVISED.
Using the red Gokaiger Ranger Key in conjunction with his Mobirates transformation device, he can transform into Gokai Red, leader of the Pirate Sentai.
As Gokai Red, Marvelous' strength, resistance, and leaping ability is greatly increased. He can withstand a number of attacks to his person he wouldn't be able to otherwise, including slashes from a blade. Despite being skin tight, his suit acts as armor. He can, and has, been injured, cut, and shot through the suit but it takes a particularly strong hit to penetrate it. Even if the suit isn't penetrated, he'll still be hurt from directly blows suffered. He is, after all, still human... even if it's a Space Human.
Inserting a Ranger Key into either the Gokai Gun or Gokai Saber, he can summon a "Final Wave" finishing attack. For the Saber, this is either a powerful energy blade launched from the sword, or the energy can be contained within the Saber to attack physically with increased power. The Gun's Final Wave is a powerful, energized shot.
On his own, he can only preform one Final Wave at a time. Any other Ranger Key can be inserted into both weapons at the same time, though, allowing him to use both the Slash and Blast Final Waves at the same time. Since the previous 34 teams' powers were returned, this would require using a teammate's Key for the second weapon. Likewise, all main five Gokaiger weapons are interchangeable - Marvelous can use any of the other main five's Saber or Gun, and vice versa. Though Marvelous fights primarily with the Gun & Saber most of the time, this is a technique the others use to compliment their varied styles.
Any Gokaiger can summon the Gokai Galleon Buster, a large bazooka which fires powered shots of energy. Utilized on its own, it just shoots standard shots. If five Gokaigers all insert their Ranger Keys into it, though, it preforms a "Charged" attack of the main color Key used in it's primary ignition slot and attacks with the combined power of all five Keys. For instance, if Gokai Red is the one whose Key is the main one used, it preforms a "Red Charge." For Pink, it'd be a "Pink Charge" and so forth. Either way, the result is the same - it shoots a large energy blast of their combined power, in the shape of the Gokai Galleon. (Though not nearly close to its SIZE.)
However, it will require five Gokaigers present to ever use that attack - without that, all it can be used for is a bigger gun, just without the significantly bigger boom.
Special Note/Request #1: The Gokai Galleon.
With permission, I'd like to request that Marvelous enters the Digital World with the Gokai Galleon in tow.
The Gokai Galleon is a large pirate ship... with wings. And rocket boosters. It's an airship, and though capable of interstellar travel in canon, Yggdrasil's machinations will prevent it from breaching the Digtial World's atmosphere.
The Galleon is built more like a battleship than any old pirate vessel, as it's hull is made of a strong metal. This is because in the Super Sentai world, the Gokai Galleon is the housing for four other machines, and when all five unite together, they form a giant robot named Gokai-Oh. Naturally... this will not be allowed to happen in this world. I will leave it to the mods discretion of what happens to the other Machines - they technically belong to the other Gokaigers, but it's obvious we'd not be able to get any of those other machines active. So whether they're just deactivated or simply banned from the world, I will leave to the non-Gokaiger apping moderators.
Regardless, the Galleon isn't a super robot by itself, and for the most part is just a ship. That flies. It has some moderate forms of defense beyond its heavy armoring - including port side cannons and guns mounted onto its wings. The front of the ship is also home to a massive sword, which I'd doubt an enemy would like plowing into their own vessel.
The Gokai Galleon, technically being Gokai Red's machine, is primarily controlled by him. It has an autopilot, but for more precise controls in battle Gokai Red must be at the helm. And though it can function without him, it's regardless still tied to his Ranger Key - if power to the ship is lost for any reason or another, or if it has a crash landing, it's not going to start back up unless he plugs his Key in. The Galleon also has navigation systems that can map the world they're on, and computer systems that can tap into a world's general information network.
Inside, as well, are quarters for the team, a kitchen, a work lab, and a large general living area. If the Gokai Machines are removed from inside it entirely, there will also be a significant amount of extra storage space within the ship.
Primarily, I'm asking permission for the Galleon because a group of pirates need a ship to be rightful pirates, or else Marvelous is going to waste little time trying to commandeer other vessels anyway.
Special note/Request #2: With the Galleon, I'd also like to request Navi, Marvelous' robot parrot sidekick, enter the Digital World with him. Navi has no real combat abilities, and without a Doc/Gokai Green, she's the only one in the crew otherwise that would have any idea of how to deal with the more intricate computer systems. She is also very tightly connected to Marvelous personally, as she is one of the last remaining things from Marvelous' mentor, AkaRed. It is effectively much the same as a Pokemon Trainer coming in with one of their Pokemon.
