The Undead Pirates are the crew members of the pirate ship The Black Pearl. These pirates helped first mate Hector Barbossa mutiny Jack Sparrow, their former captain, and steal the cursed Aztec gold of Isla de Muerta. After Barbossa's death, the remaining pirates allied with Luxord during Sora's second visit, who granted their immortality back to them.

[edit] Personality

The Undead Pirates don't talk, so not much is known about their personality. They are loyal to their captain Barbossa and they follow his orders.

[edit] Appearance

[edit] Abilities

The Undead Pirates from Port Royal come in three different varieties, each with differing and similar abilities. All Pirates, for example, are invulnerable unless exposed to the moonlight and are very susceptible to Elemental magic (Fire, Blizzard and Thunder). Each type of Pirate has a different way of attacking:

• The Axe-wielding pirate will attack you with his twin blades, but has a set of Reaction Commands, Backshuffle > High Counter, which deals 300% damage.
• The Knife-wielding pirate will act more defensively than its peers, and is able to toss bombs, which deal fire-type damage.
• The Crossbow-wielding pirate fights from a distance, shooting bolts at its enemies. The Reaction Command Return Fire allows these attacks to be reflected, however.

[edit] Origin

The Undead Pirates originally appeared in the 2003 film Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. In that film, the role of the Undead Pirates is similar to their role during the first visit in Kingdom Hearts II.

[edit] Trivia

• The Undead Pirates are three particular members of Barbossa's crew from the the first film: Jacoby (the bomb and knife pirate), the Bo'sun (the ax pirate), and Twig (the crossbow pirate).

• The Undead Pirates who wield crossbows wield rifles in the Japanese versions of the game. These were altered to resemble crossbows for the English version of the game, yet still sound like firearms when used.

• The Undead Pirates are the only generic enemies who are neither Heartless nor Nobodies.

• While in Kingdom Hearts II, the Undead Pirates can only be killed when under the moonlight (which reveals their cursed form), in the movie, the pirates were immortal because of the curse. This is explained by Pete early that because the Keyblade has magic not from there world it could kill them when their true forms were shown.

• The Undead Pirates were able to be caught on fire in the Japanese versions of Kingdom Hearts II. In the North American version this feature was removed.

• All three pirates are voiced by John Dimaggio, who also voiced Wakka in Final Fantasy X (Wakka's Kingdom Hearts counterpart is voiced by Dee Bradley Baker).
