Of all the things Oda has pulled on us in his manga, it's safe  to assume Chopper's mere existence if proof he's off the deep end. Brilliant,            but crazy, right?             
Chopper is, put simply, a reindeer-human, better known as a   Human Reindeer, as he was once a reindeer who ate the Hito Hito no Mi, or the            Human Fruit. This means he's a Zoan-class Empowered, and one who combines the            best of worlds in humanity and in reindeer... dom. By nature, this fellow            believes everything he hears, even Usopp's lies, so that right there ought to            tell you that he's got some credibility issues. It doesn't matter in the end,            though, for two reasons. First, Chopper is a kind, gentle creature. Second, he            can WHIP YOUR ASS if he wanted to. How that relates to what I just said, eh, who            knows.             
To return, Chopper was, from a young age, introduced to   medicine through Doctor Hiruluk, and properly conditioned by Doctor Kureha.            Because of that history, he's naturally garnered talent at fulfilling his dream            (to "be a panacea which can cure any disease"), and is skilled at diagnosing and            treating injuries ranging from simple frostbite to ridiculous full-body wounds            (which he promptly wraps in bandages from his neverending stash). For all his            lack of recognizing lies and falsehoods, Chopper actually knows a TON about            medicine, and in fact, that led to his greatest discovery, the Rumble Ball.                        
Though he lacks in basic physical strength in his Beastman   Form, Chopper is quite strong in Manbeast Form and retains his agility in Beast            Form. That isn't the end to his bag of tricks, though, as the "Rumble" comes to            bat. To summarize, the Rumble Ball distorts the brainwave patterns of the            Devil's Fruit, allowing Chopper to, for a span of three minutes, utilize            additional forms. When a Rumble is initiated, the "Forms" of the Devil Fruit            become "Points," including Heavy (Manbeast), Brain (Beastman), Walk (Beast), and            four other forms that have been introduced thus far. With the sort of            versatility given by this invention, Chopper may well be the most adaptable            Strawhat.             
First appearing in his own, character-specific arc, the Drum   Arc, Chopper came into the crew with a simple invitation from Luffy: "SHUT UP!!            LET'S GO!!!" Finesse isn't Luffy's forte, as you know, so that may not come as a            surprise to some readers.             
            
Chopper's Past

What makes the measure of a man? Is it existence, or   recognition? Is it actualization, or acknowledgement? What if, by some token,            you aren't really a "human" at all? For one reindeer, those questions became            deathly serious when a stray fruit eaten happened to be a Devil's Fruit. Cursed            by the sea and thrown into a half-and-half world of human and reindeer, the            beast who would one day be named as Chopper was shunned and thrown from his            herd. Subsequent ventures to befriend humans met an end with gunshots and cries            of "MONSTER!"             
There was another misfit in Drum, too, though. They called him   Hiruluk. Though in their first meeting Chopper assaulted the Quack Doctor, it            was Hiruluk's kindness and devotion that assured the reindeer his peace, and            when he awoke, he lay in the bed of Hiruluk's home. For some time the two            remained together, and it was during this time that they bonded, becoming like a            father and his son. Then, one day, Hiruluk cast Chopper from his house, going so            far as to shoot at him, so that he wouldn't see the doctor die from his mortal            disease.             
After hearing the story of Hiruluk from a conversation with   Kureha, Chopper vowed to cure his father, and through great struggle brought            make an Amiudake Mushroom, which Hiruluk received cautiously. Chopper, bloody,            beaten, and void one antler, asked his loved one if he could be a doctor            someday, to which Hiruluk responded by embracing him and vowing that he could.                        
And then... He was gone. Chopper, upon learning that the   Amiudake was poisonous from Doctor Kureha, rushed to the King's Castle to see            his father one more time, but just as he reached the top of the Drum Rockies,            there was a great explosion: Hiruluk, rather than die by the means of his son's            unknowing deed, had committed suicide by a different solution. Wapol, the King            of Drum at the time, mocked the doctor's death, laughing and hollering.             
That was enough. Chopper burst open his bandages into hi strong Manbeast Form, and enraged, charged the Castle Gates to be restrained by            the Guard Captain Dalton. Dalton, who had seen Hiruluk's sacrifice and heard his            stirring last words, sent Chopper away, and confronted the King himself to stand            up for the "quack doctor's" beliefs.             
Waving the flag of the sakura-petaled Jolly Roger, in front of  Doctor Kureha's home, Chopper made his promise: There was no disease that            couldn't be cured, and he would prove it. He would become the great doctor            Hiruluk had thought he would be! Kureha agreed to take him in, after having            remembered Hiruluk's prompting just before his death to teach the reindeer, and            so for some time Chopper was trained as a doctor by the 139-year-old Witch            Doctor.             
Later, of course, he would meet the Strawhat Pirates, and there  he found his calling as a friend, as a doctor, and as a human.
