'''Captain Hook''' is the leader of the pirates who sail the waters of [[Neverland]], and [[Peter Pan]]'s nemesis. He appeared in ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'', and ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]''.

While looking for treasure on the island of Neverland, Hook and [[Mr. Smee]] are attacked by a swarm of [[Unversed]], but are rescued by [[Terra]]. Hook tells Terra that a young boy has been tormenting him for quite some time, attempting to steal "the [[light]]" inside Hook's chest. Terra at first believes that the boy may be [[Vanitas]], but Hook tells him that the boy's name is [[Peter Pan]], and requests Terra to take the chest to Skull Rock and guard it from the thief. Once they arrive, Smee informs Hook of a [[Star Shard|shooting star]] which landed not far from where they are. Hoping to find more treasure, Hook leaves the chest in Terra's care and departs to find the shooting star. He finds it, and captures [[Tinker Bell]], as well. Although he is confronted by [[Ventus]], Hook escapes with Tinker Bell and reunites with Terra inside Skull Rock, showing him the imprisoned fairy, who he plans to use to trap Peter Pan.  

However, Terra frees Tinker Bell, having learned the truth about Hook during a confrontation with Peter Pan. Just as Hook prepares to engage Terra, the Crocodile appears and Hook makes another run for it. Shortly afterward, Ventus finds him waiting at the Cove, wondering if Peter Pan has been defeated yet. Ven defeats Hook in battle, ending by knocking him into the water, where he is chased off by the Crocodile.

Some time later, when [[Aqua]] lands on the island, the Lost Boys tell her that Hook has stolen their treasure once again. Aqua, Peter, and the Lost Boys eventually track Hook down, but as Hook gloats, he opens the treasure chest only to find nothing but the Boys' toys and other keepsakes (including Ventus's [[wooden Keyblade]]). As he curses, the Crocodile appears and he runs away.  

Some time after [[Master Xehanort]]'s defeat, Hook's hat is stolen by Peter.

In the following decade, Captain Hook is recruited by [[Pete]] to be a part of [[Maleficent]]'s council of [[villains]]; however, unlike [[Jafar]], [[Ursula]], [[Hades]] and [[Oogie Boogie]], Hook remained in the dark about the purpose served by the [[Princesses of Heart]]. Intrigued by Maleficent's army of [[Heartless]], Captain Hook replaces his pirate crew with them, with the exception of [[Smee]]. With their dark powers, Hook was able to traverse the universe on his pirate ship. Hook attended the meeting to watch the Heartless attack [[Traverse Town]], becoming shocked that [[King Mickey]]'s subjects had joined forces with the [[Keyblade wielder]]. When comparing them to bilge rats, Hook was insulted by Oogie and snapped at him, but was silenced by Maleficent, who was interested in seeing where [[Sora]]'s path would lead him. Following [[Jasmine]]'s abduction and Jafar's defeat, Hook is called in by Maleficent to take [[Riku]] to find [[Kairi]].

By this point, Hook had captured [[Wendy]], hoping she was one of the chosen ones, and had also managed to lock [[Peter Pan]] in the brig of his ship. After finding [[Kairi]], Hook sailed his ship back to [[Neverland]]. However, he came upon the [[Gummi Ship]] near by and rammed it, taking Sora, [[Donald]], and [[Goofy]] captive and locking them in the brig. Though annoyed that Riku kept bossing him around, Hook complies with him as the boy had more control of the Heartless than him. Riku later informs him that Wendy is not a [[Princess of Heart]], and then hears from Smee than the prisoners escaped. Hook manages to capture [[Tinker Bell]], demanding Sora hand over the [[Keyblade]], but then the [[Crocodile]] arrives and scares him into the ship. Peter Pan later tricks him out and Hook fights the heroes, ultimately getting knocked off the ship and chased away by the Crocodile.

===''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories''===

Hook appears as a figment of Sora's memories. Upon meeting the "stowaways" on his ship, Hook reveals that he captured Wendy and is using her as bait to lure Peter Pan to his doom. However, Peter Pan does arrive and saves Wendy. Hook nearly falls into the ocean when he goes after the hero, but he stops himself just in time and fights against Sora in rage.

Hook also appears in Riku's memory-worlds as a token of the indelible [[darkness]] within him.

Captain Hook and Smee are once again digging around the island, searching for treasure. However, instead of treasure, they find Heartless, who are attracted to Captain Hook's greed. Eventually, it is revealed that [[Pete]] is the mastermind behind it. Pete had created a series of maps leading to the Heartless, hoping to turn Hook into a Heartless. When Smee digs up the final hole, Captain Hook is ecstatic that this one has real treasure. Just when he is about to collect his rewards, Pete turns the treasure into a Heartless. Luckily, [[Roxas]] is there to dispatch [[Ruler of the Sky|the giant Heartless]], allowing Captain Hook to escape to his ship. In the end, however, his greed comes full circle when the Heartless crashes into his ship.

==Design==

Captain Hook is a thin man with curly, black, shoulder-length hair that drapes over his shoulders, a large, hooked nose, a thin, black mustache that angles upward sharply, and a large chin. He wears a frilly, white shirt underneath a red justacorps coat with gold lining and maroon cuffs. Each of these cuffs sports two yellow buttons. He also wears an orange sash over his right shoulder that holds his sword scabbard at his left hip. Hook wears maroon knee breeches with long gray stockings that extend up to his thighs underneath, as well as black shoes with a pink buckle decorating each one. The tongues of his shoes are enormous, reaching halfway up his shins. He wears a large, maroon hat with a round brim and a huge, white feather stuck in it. He carries a rapier with a gold handle and guard as a weapon.

==Personality==

Captain Hook is very arrogant and full of himself, and gets angry if someone insults him. He tends to hold a grudge against Peter Pan for stealing his hand and feeding it to the crocodile. He is an excellent manipulator and liar. An example of this is when he manipulated Terra, in ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep''. He is cowardly and sometimes acts like a wimp, particularly when he hears the sound of the [[Crocodile]] coming close by. However, he is also an excellent sword fighter and a bomb expert, making him a challenge in combat.

He first appeared in Disney's ''{{w|Peter Pan (1953 film)|Peter Pan}}'' as the main antagonist of the film and tries to seek revenge on [[Peter Pan]] for causing him to lose his hand to the [[Crocodile]].  

*Captain Hook's English voice actor, Corey Burton, also voiced many additional characters such as [[Yen Sid]] and [[Ansem the Wise]] in two of the series's installments. His Japanese voice actor in ''Kingdom Hearts'' and ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories'', Chikao Otsuka, is the voice of [[Master Xehanort]] and the real-life father of {{w|Akio Otsuka}}, the Japanese voice actor of [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]] and [[Xehanort]].
