'''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.  

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]].

 

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

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

==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.

In the original book, Captain James Hook is the Pirate Captain of the Jolly Roger. His origins are all but unknown, only showing that he was a school teacher and a sword champion before his life of crime. Hook came to Neverland because he thought that there would be treasure, and he was right as the book makes reference to Peter Pan and the Lost Boys having fun by stealing his treasure and making him find it all over again. A connoisseur of the fine arts, Hook has a passion for Shakespearian literature, sometimes interrupting his current situation to recite passages and wax poetic. Hook also makes references to "Good Form", something he picked up in his teaching days. When ever he fights Pan, he always tries to make the fight to "Good Form" as a habit. But when given the opportunity, he will try to trick Pan in order to gain the upper hand. Peter would call him on this behavior by saying "Bad Form", but Hook would always find a way of making it good again, usually by saying his life was at risk. One point that the game doesn't use is how cruel Hook really is. This point is made both in the book and in the 1953 film, when Hook shoots one of his men. The Disney film made this a little child safe by making Hook get annoyed with his singing. In the book, Hook shoots him unprovoked, just to have a little fun.

*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]].
