Gangplank is a cruel pirate captain who maintains his power through fear alone. As such, he can be exceedingly brutal in his methods, even torturing members of his own crew should they step out of line. With bone-carving and mutilation, Gangplank also showcases an artistic side in his own sick and twisted way. In his quest to be feared, Gangplank often touts his own reputation to frighten people into submission. He often remarks at how many have tried (and failed) to kill him, and shows a remarkable resistance to pain when he orders a doctor to amputate his arm without a fuss. Gangplank is shown to have little remorse for his cruel behavior, killing {{cbis|Miss Fortune|Sarah Fortune}} mother without mercy. |

== Abilities == |
|||
Having grown rich preying upon the trade routes of the Twelve Seas, Gangplank has made himself many powerful enemies. In {{fi|Ionia}}, he incurred the wrath of the deadly {{fi|Shadow Order|Order of Shadow}} after ransacking the Temple of the Jagged Knife, and it is said that the {{ci|Swain|Grand General}} of Noxus himself has sworn to see Gangplank torn asunder after the pirate stole the 'Leviathan', {{cis|Swain}} personal warship and the pride of the Noxian fleet. |

''(TBA)'' |
|||
== Relations == |
|||
While Gangplank has incurred the wrath of many, none have yet been able to bring him to justice, despite assassins, bounty hunters, and entire armadas being sent after him. He takes grim pleasure in the ever-increasing rewards posted for his head, and makes sure to nail them to the Bounty Board in [[Bilgewater]] for all to see whenever he returns to port, his ships heavy with loot. |
|||
=== {{cbi|Illaoi}} === |
|||
Gangplank and {{cbi|Illaoi}} were in a relationship over a decade ago, but eventually broke up. After subjecting him to a {{ai|Test of Spirit|Illaoi}} in order to get him back 'in motion', {{cbi|Illaoi|the Kraken Priestess}} ordered the Serpent Islander chiefs to support the Saltwater Scourge in retaking Bilgewater. They would lead Gangplank to Buhru artifacts that could control the Black Mist. {{cbi|Illaoi}} was Gangplank's first love. She would eventually oppose him alongside {{cbi|Ahri}}, {{cbi|Braum}}, {{cbi|Miss Fortune}}, {{cbi|Pyke}}, and {{cbi|Yasuo}} in [[Ruined King]]. |
|||
=== {{cbi|Thresh}} === |
|||
In recent times, Gangplank has been brought down by the machinations of the bounty hunter {{ci|Miss Fortune}}. His ship was destroyed with all of Bilgewater watching, killing his crew and shattering his aura of invincibility. Now that they have seen he is vulnerable, the gangs of Bilgewater have risen up, fighting amongst themselves to claim dominion over the port city. |
|||
Gangplank would enter a partnership with {{cbi|Thresh}} in [[Ruined King]], in order to awaken and subjugate {{cbi|Viego}} to conquer Bilgewater. Viego's power would prove too strong for Gangplank and ended up controlling him instead. |
|||
=== {{cbi|Swain}} & {{cbi|Zed}} === |
|||
Despite receiving horrific injuries in the explosion, Gangplank survived. Sporting a multitude of fresh scars, and with a newly crafted {{ii|Dead Man's Plate|metal arm}} to replace his amputated limb, he is now determined to rebuild his strength, reclaim what he sees as rightfully his - and to ruthlessly punish all those who turned against him. |
|||
{{cbi|Swain}} and {{cbi|Zed}} want Gangplank dead for stealing from each of them. Namely, Gangplank stole {{cis|Swain}} personal warship known as ''the Leviathan'' and ransacked the Temple of the Jagged Knife belonging to {{cbis|Zed}} {{fi|Shadow Order}}. |
|||
=== {{cbi|Miss Fortune}} === |
|||
{{cbi|Miss Fortune}} managed to overthrow and 'kill' Gangplank in revenge for him murdering her mother back when she was a girl. Gangplank had only thought of {{cbi|Miss Fortune}} as the most persistent of bounty hunters, unaware that she is the daughter of the gunsmith he killed when she refused to hand over {{ai|Impure Shots|Miss Fortune|the twin pistols}} he had commissioned in order to spearhead his rise to Reaver King of Bilgewater. |
|||
Miss Fortune would defeat Gangplank again in [[Ruined King]] and had him detained in order to publicly execute him as a show of power. He would escape before his execution and entered a massive gang war against Fortune. |
