It's simple
We use the World of One Piece as it was created by Oda
however since no one should be allowed to use Characters other than the creator, in order to avoid any conflict, we assume Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, Usop, Nami, Franki, Robin, Choper, Brook, etc to have never existed, and begin history from the moment the pirate king was executed, any character that appeared to be alive after that instant is not of our right to manipulate as we can't control them.
Just pretend you never knew them, the club aims to improve, we want you to create your own story, your own adventure, doing so in a world created by someone else will not help you unlock your true potential
It is said "Philosophers are bounded by the society they live in"; this means you can only go so far trapped in the mindset of today, even if you where a genius your imagination can only go so far.
So why trap yourself in a box, here we're giving you the box, we're giving you your OWEN world to live in, even better a world were others ideas will help you create even more fabulous stories

In general your OC should have no ties what so ever to any Character from One Piece as mentioned above; however, you can still submit fanart irrelevant to your OC or even a picture with him and an OP character. Just don't go around inventing fanfict about how tight your OC is with Luffy, or how you won a fight against Shanks in the past They don't exist in this world
And remember your OC's reference sheet can't have OP Characters

That is completely dependent on the contest. We are after all a One Piece club.
in it

Yes you can add it any way you like we accept all form of art, this includes but not limited to drawn, written, even cosplay; however, as mentioned above any fanfict you post in this club can't have any ties to actual One Piece characters

Just one, at least for now

A member can only claim a fruit after he/she submit an OC; however, you can target a fruit, in witch case it would still not be claimed, but it will tell other people that you're after it.
In case someone else attempts to claim it, you will be noted and both of you will be forced into art duel(unless someone says I don't want it) of your choosing(both must agree) it could be drawing, literature, etc..
Kinda lick Blackbeard killing his nakama to get what he wants.
Targeted fruits will be marked in the library by ()
