Mirage
CharacterMirage serves as the cunning second-in-command of the criminal outfit Flower Angel and acts as the chief villain's right hand in the Game Boy Color title Grand Line Dream Adventure Log. A master hypnotist, he torments the Straw Hats with illusions and stolen navigation tools.
Appearance
Mirage presents as a man marked by a large nose, a tuft of beard at his chin, and cropped brown hair. His wardrobe runs to a black coat trimmed with a dark blue collar, crowned by a broad black top hat ringed with upward-pointing decorations shaped like pink and yellow petals.
Personality
Cold and self-serving, Mirage indulges a personal obsession with hoarding Log Poses and Eternal Poses, happily lifting them from whoever he meets. He felt no qualms about abandoning the Straw Hats stranded on a crippled vessel with nothing to steer by. Though he answers to Dandelion, he frames their bond as purely a mutual exploitation, privately branding his boss an idiot while still respecting his raw power and caring nothing for his goals.
Abilities
As Flower Angel's staff officer, Mirage operates as the trusted lieutenant to its leader Dandelion. His real menace lies in formidable hypnosis. He brainwashed Luffy into a destructive frenzy, made the crew hallucinate their own dreams to throw them into confusion, and used a special scent to warp the senses and hide a colossal warship behind an undetectable barrier, a trick that can be broken by a strong enough counter-smell. He can also conjure duplicate fighters called shadows, though whether these stem from hypnosis or a separate power is never made clear.
