Scopper Gaban

Scopper Gyaban was a former crew member of the Roger Pirates before Gol D. Roger's execution. His current whereabouts are unknown.

Appearance
He is a tall well built man with long black hair, tan skin and a narrow chin. He wears a large blue shirt with rolled-up sleeves and he is always seen wearing a pair of round black sunglasses.

Personality
He appears to be rather jolly and he used to enjoy teasing the crew's pirate apprentices Buggy and Shanks. He was also fearless in battle and was a loyal crew member.

Abilities
Not much is known about Scopper's strength or abilities, but the fact that he was a member of the strongest pirate crew in history is a testament to his skill. He was also known as the "Left Hand of the Pirate King", suggesting that he held similar or equal status and power to Silvers Rayleigh, the first mate and right hand of Gol D. Roger. In the past he was shown wielding an axe and it can be presumed that he is quite skilled with it.

Battle at Edd War
Twenty-seven years ago, Scopper Gyaban was present with the rest of the Roger Pirates in the sea known as Edd War, where they were confronted by Shiki, the captain of the Golden Lion Pirates who demanded to form an alliance with the Roger Pirates in hopes of taking over the world and if they did not agree Shiki would destroy them with his armada. While this event occurred Scopper tried his best to calm down Buggy who was hoping to surrender to Shiki, but in the end Roger refused the alliance thus resulting in an epic battle where the entire crew, including Scopper fought it out and luckily fate was on the Roger Pirate's side as during the battle a massive wave formed and sunk half of the armada, resulting in the Roger Pirates' victory. This event was forever know as the Battle in Edd War.

The Pirate King's Execution
It is unknown whether or not he attended his captain's execution at Loguetown, but soon after their captain's death the entire crew disbanded and went their own separate ways. What became of Scopper is unknown.
