Portgas D. Ace

Whitebeard Pirates, leader of Whitebeard's second division.

Ace was much more intelligent, polite, and generally more bearable than Luffy, leading the Straw Hats to wonder if he was truly related to their captain. While several people who knew Gol D. Roger pointed out that Luffy was similar to the last Pirate King, Whitebeard claimed that Ace's personality was nothing like his father's. It seems that among the few things the brothers shared was their recklessness as pirates (and nearly bottomless stomachs). Also, Ace loved parties as much as his brother does.

He suffered from extreme narcolepsy. He tended to randomly fall asleep while eating and talking, with strangers coming around him wondering if he had died.

His facial features were almost similar to his biological father Gol D. Roger in his youth and without his mustache. Ace's tattoos are marked among his most notable features. He had a tattoo on his back with Whitebeard's symbol (purple bones forming a cross behind a purple skull with a white mustache), which he described as his pride and joy. Ace had another tattoo on his upper left bicep that read "ASCE" vertically with the "S" crossed out. The S is very similar to the one Sabo wrote in the letter to Ace and Luffy.

Ace looked a lot like his adopted brother, Luffy. However, Ace was much more serious than Luffy's cheerful design, and was also a bit taller and more muscular. He also sported freckles that gave him a rather childish appearance and tended to make an incredulous face expression by raising his left eyebrow.
