Appearance

His long black hair is bound into a ponytail, and a stitched scar runs diagonally across his face from the right brow down to the left cheek. Red coloring marks the right side of his face while a teardrop motif sits on the left. He sports a strapped vest over diamond-patterned purple garb and a yellow fur collar, the whole ensemble evoking a court jester.

Personality

Pin Joker fights without scruples, striking at Zoro while the swordsman is pinned holding up a descending ceiling and lacing his weapons with poison gas to gain an edge. He bristles when Zoro fails to remember him. A recurring joke is his fondness for Chinese proverbs, which he constantly mangles into puns and is then corrected on, much to his irritation.

Abilities

As the Trump Pirates' lead swordsman he duels with a rapier, and the feathers covering his costume are loaded with Skunk One's gas, letting him paralyze foes before cutting them down. His signature move, Hari Hari Ken, scatters a volley of these gas-laden feathers at the target.

He and Zoro had crossed blades once before, the clash that gave Pin Joker his facial scar, though Zoro retained no memory of it. During Clockwork Island Adventure he warned the crew about Zoro's presence, played cards with Nami while awaiting Luffy, and later ambushed the pair when they were trapped by a rising floor, stabbing Zoro and hauling him to Bear King. During the final rematch his Hari Hari Ken rebounded on him, as Zoro called up a sword-made gust to fling the needles right back, and an Oni Giri strike then felled him. His fate is left open, as he lay unconscious when the island crumbled.
