The backstory also relates to the role they fulfill in the crew. All the people you listed except Jinbe would be useless extras who already have their own shit to do, and I only exempt Jinbe because he already agreed, despite having his own shit to do. Find me a backstory that is actually relevant to a position on the crew.
