Biography
Origin
Donquixote Doflamingo (Japanese: ドンキホーテ・ドフラミンゴ, Hepburn: Donkihōte Dofuramingo) was a male human born as the son of Donquixote Homing and was the older brother of Donquixote Rosinante.
Around 10 years ago, the 31 year old Doflamingo started building his powerful reputation by stealing money from the World Nobles and blackmailing the World Government to attain the position as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. One night, Doflamingo appeared at Dressrosa in Riku Doldo III’s chambers. After Riku recognized him as a descendant of the Donquixote Family and commented on his feats as a pirate, Doflamingo stated his demand which was a 10 billion Beli fee until the dawn of the next day in exchange for leaving the country alone. To avoid war, Riku Doldo decided to agree to the demand and went out begging the citizens of the kingdom for the money to pay off Doflamingo. Just as the money was being gathered, Doflamingo, from behind the scenes, used his Devil Fruit ability to control Riku and made him rampage in the city of Sebio. As panic and confusion spread throughout the kingdom, Doflamingo proceeded to take control of the soldiers as well, making them attack innocent civilians against their will. As he gleefully watched from the shadows, Doflamingo and his top three subordinates waited for the right moment to step in and act as heroes in the eyes of Dressrosa's citizens. While Doflamingo continued to control Riku Doldo III, his subordinates managed to take control of the castle with the help of an inside spy named Monet and also took princess Viola hostage. Once the citizens' trust for their king was shattered and they gave in to despair, Doflamingo, Diamante, Pica and Trebol appeared and defeated the king and his army, passing themselves off as heroes and setting the grounds for the Donquixote Pirates' takeover of the island. He then held Doldo captive at the palace. When Kyros arrived to confront Doflamingo, he told the former gladiator that he had sent subordinates to kill his wife and child. When Doflamingo was about to execute Doldo, Kyros attempted to attack him, losing his leg and getting transformed into a toy by Sugar in the process. Despite this, Kyros managed to escape the palace with Doldo.
After that night, Doflamingo ascended to the throne. He claimed that the former king was responsible for making Dressrosa a poor country and promised wealth to the citizens. In the meantime, he had his subordinates hunt down anyone with an affiliation to the previous king. Because he found Viola's Devil Fruit ability to be useful, he spared Riku Doldo's life on the condition that she would aid the Donquixote Pirates. With the castle bearing his smiley, the Donquixote Pirates used the island as their base. Doflamingo used his weapon trading to instigate wars by supplying arms to various factions including the enemies of the Kano Country. Doflamingo, using Sugar's Devil Fruit ability, turned those who opposed him into living toys, erasing their past and making the people close to them forget who they were. In addition, he enacted two laws that created segregation between humans and toys. At some point, the Bellamy Pirates came to swear their allegiance to Doflamingo, and were permitted to use his Jolly Roger.

Overview
Personality and attributes
In appearance, Donquixote Doflamingo was a male human who was very tall light blond-haired, very lean and muscular man with tan skin. Within the criminal underworld, he was known by his alias of Joker (ジョーカー, Jōkā?) where he was a notorious broker. His status as a World Noble and his sadistic nature also led to him being known by the epithet of Heavenly Yaksha (天夜叉, Ten Yasha?, English versions: "Heavenly Demon").
Being a member of the Donquixote Family makes Doflamingo a descendant of one of the twenty kings who founded the World Government 800 years ago, and thus, a World Noble.
Powers and abilities
He came to eat the Ito Ito no Mi (イトイトの実, String-String Fruit) that was a Paramecia (超人パラミシア系, Paramishia-kei) type Devil Fruit (悪魔の実, Akuma no Mi) that granted him the ability to create and manipulate strings. As a String Human (糸人間, Ito Ningen?), it gave him the power to generate and control white, wafer-thin, razor-sharp strings attachable to seemingly any surface and even to control people's bodies like puppets by using some form of psychokinesis.
Among the techniques known to him included:
- Parasite (寄生糸パラサイト, Parasaito?, literally meaning "Parasite String") :
- Sora no Michi (空の道, Sora no Michi?, literally meaning "Sky's Path") :
- Goshikito (五色糸ゴシキート, Goshikīto?, literally meaning "Five Color Strings") :
- Overheat (超過鞭糸オーバーヒート, Ōbāhīto?, literally meaning "Excess Whip String") :
- Tamaito (弾糸タマイト, Tamaito?, literally meaning "Bullet String") :
- Black Knight (影騎糸ブラックナイト, Burakku Naito?, literally meaning "Shadow Knight String") :
As a result of his parentage, Donquixote was a World Noble making him one of the Celestial Dragons (天竜人, Tenryūbito?, literally meaning "Heavenly Dragon Folk") that comprised the leadership of the World Government.
Doflamingo came to be the captain of the Donquixote Pirates (ドンキホーテ海賊団, Donkihōte Kaizoku-dan). They also operated a crime family and thus were also known as the Donquixote Family (ドンキホーテファミリー, Donkihōte Famirī?).
