Heat Headcanons (One Piece)

Hello 💜 Nerds, I’m Manda (the name of my One Piece persona) here with headcanons for, Heat, the fire-breather of the Kid Pirates. Heat content is sorely lacking and I’ve brought it upon myself to share mine with the Tumblr community.

🔥 Heat’s animal resemblance is a salamander for his unexplained fire breathing abilities. In some folklore and mythology, the salamander is a creature that both creates and extinguishes flames or is merely resistant to fire. It may stem from real-life salamanders, that hibernate in logs during the winter, because of their damp and moist skin, they can resist being tossed into a campfire long enough to wake up and run away.

🔥 His specific number is 8 or 12. I chose 8 and 12 (for his birth month) because in a tarot deck, depending on what version you have, the wand suit depicts salamanders on the Eight of Wands. The Eight of Wands represents action, communication, and long-distance. The Knight of Wands, more or less, is the twelfth card in the wands suit, represents swiftness, departure, or spiritual adventure. The wand category also represents fire. To relate this to Heat, I took into consideration the situation of the Kid Pirates, who were separated throughout the Wano arc until recently, and are now ready to make a comeback, take action, revenge, etc. as they continue their adventure through the New World.

🔥 The obvious choice is blue for Heat’s specific color, but I also say orange. Blue and orange are complementary colors on a color wheel and really help Heat stand out.

🔥 Heat smells like metal, gasoline, and seawater.

🔥 His favorite season is summer on a spring island.

🔥 Heat’s favorite food is chicken, but for something extra he really enjoys phall (sometimes spelled fall, faal, fahl, phaal, phal or paal), a British Asian curry dish. His least favorite foods are anything cold or raw.

🔥 If Heat had a real-world nationality, he would either be Scottish like Kid and Killer or Welsh.

🔥 Heat would bathe every other day. He likes the temperature to be warm or mild rather than scathing hot or chillingly cold.

🔥 He sleeps from 10 PM to 4 AM, approximately six hours but he may go over or under this amount depending on the circumstances.

🔥 His handwriting is rather sloppy. It tends to be shaky with crooked letters and words heavily spaced out. The only indication that he has autographed something is the very large “H” at the beginning. He autographs things using his name and a little drawing of a flame at the end.

🔥 If Heat had a real-world occupation, he’d own a Tattoo/Art studio. When he gets drunk patrons in the studio, he never gives them what they ask for because it’s usually something stupid. So, he does whatever he wants, but he hasn’t gotten any complaints about his designs. The drunkards eventually come back (while sober) for another "artist's choice" tattoo.

🔥 As seen in chapter 506, Heat can be seen wielding two swords. So it can be speculated that he may be a swordsman with abilities in Nitoryu (二刀流, meaning: "Two Swords Style"). Whether he is a novice or master with a sword is yet to be seen, but I would say he’s at least proficient. He’s not dead, he probably knows how to handle it. But wait there’s more.

🔥 Heat has an unexplained ability to breathe fire, which I offer an explanation for, right now. Heat has the amazing ability to control his abdominal and esophagus muscles, allowing him to regurgitate material in his stomach and throat. From this, I speculate that Heat hides a bag of gasoline at the bottom of his throat or in his stomach, contracts his muscles to squeeze said bag, and subsequently releases its contents. He then lights the gasoline on fire with a flint hidden in his mouth.

🔥 If played in a video game, I would say Heat has average attack prowess but is lacking in the speed department. His defensive stats are rather high and he has decent stamina. While he does wield swords for melee combat, he would be a character best used if the player focuses on his “specials” or (energy/mana/chakra/gauge/etc.) based attacks.

🔥 Sailing from island to island especially in the New World will change every day and Heat is an adaptable babe. Since he’s one of the few named members of the Kid Pirates, he probably has command over most of the crew when they can’t pull themselves together to get things done. Is there a storm and the railings are broken? Heat is one of the people the rest of the crew go to so they can be /told/ what to do. Otherwise, he doesn’t have a specific role outside of being a combatant.

🔥 Heat has a lot of respect and a high reverence for Kid. So, he isn’t someone to take command. Despite crew members going to him for instruction, he will hand the job over to Killer. Heat also thinks its best for crew members to figure out simple problems themselves. He can pretty much do any job needed on the ship, but if there is nothing more to do, his hobbies include tattooing or drawing. Based upon his own tattoos, Heat appears to be the one to give other crew members tattoos with the help of Wire.

🔥 At the end of the day, he returns to a barren room. All his belongings can fit into a duffle bag or backpack. The only things in it are probably necessities and a few knickknacks and tools for drawing/tattooing. He doesn’t have a desk or table to draw on. So, he will sit in bed with papers and drawing utensils sprawled out on a wooden box next to him. He sleeps in a twin-sized bed (or at least one that can fit him).

My headcanons can also be found on Quotev and One Piece Amino. I’m rarely on Tumblr. Yet, here I am.

Thanks for stopping by,

Manda 💜
