Captain Hector Barbossa gets his way. he doesnt care or how, he just wants it done. He doesnt feel emotion and cares not that his crew may die. He is a ruthless and cruel hearted.History:
He takes pride in salvaging other ships cargo when plundering. He took his flag, the skull and two rapiers from Captain Calico Jack, he enjoys tormenting people and showing off when he has done something right.
Barbossa and the crew found the Aztec treasure and became cursed—undead skeletons whose hideous forms were only visible in the moonlight. To lift the curse, the crew must return every coin to the chest and offer their blood. They also need their former shipmate, "Bootstrap Bill" Turner's blood, the lone holdout against the mutiny. Believing the crew deserved to remain cursed for betraying Jack, he sent one coin to his son, Will. In retaliation, he was tied to a cannon and thrown overboard. For years, Barbossa searched for the last coin that has since come into the possession of Elizabeth Swann, Governor Weatherby Swann's daughter. Barbossa sets sail for Port Royal after detecting a "signal" when the coin touches the sea. Unknown to him, Jack Sparrow is also in Port Royal.Sample Post:
Believing Elizabeth is Bootstrap's daughter (and thus, the means to breaking their curse), Barbossa makes off with her and the medallion. He reveals their cursed state en route to Isla de Muerta. Upon arrival, Barbossa performs a ritual offering Elizabeth's blood, mistakenly believing her to be Bill Turner's child; the ritual fails. Will and Sparrow rescue Elizabeth, and they escape with the medallion. An unconscious Jack Sparrow is left behind and taken prisoner aboard the Pearl. Barbossa pursues the Interceptor. Catching them, Barbossa learns Will's true identity. He maroons Jack and Elizabeth and imprisons Will and the crew. Before he can finish performing the ritual using Will's blood, Sparrow makes another unexpected return and strikes a bargain with Barbossa with the intent of betraying him.
While the pirates battle the Royal Navy, Jack duels Barbossa, having secretly swiped a cursed coin while bargaining with him. Now both are undead, unable to defeat one another. When it looks like Jack and Will are ready to turn the tables, Barbossa pulls a gun, threatening to shoot the newly arrived Elizabeth Swann. Jack then shoots Barbossa with the pistol he received when he was marooned. At this point Will returns the final coin to the Chest and breaks the curse; thus, Barbossa is fatally shot. As blood gushes from the now-mortal Barbossa's wound, he says "I feel... cold." It is the first physical sensation he has experienced since the curse was put upon him. After he falls dead, an eerily content expression is on his face. A green apple rolls from Barbossa's hand; his favorite fruit now symbolizes his lost life.
"Whats left now, Jack? We be two immortals locked in combat 'till Judgement say... Then what?" He continued to cross blades with Jack Sparrow. He backed up a hill, "Sparrow was never a respected captain on my Ship!" He pulled out his Pistol and fired one meaningless shot towards Sparrow, it missed him by an inch. He used the Gun as a clobbering weapon now.Ever Roleplayed before?: Yes
He continued to back up the hill, "Jack... Always the coward...Always trying to make a deal. Well guess what laddy? Its not going to change! Your Pathetic Sparrow!" Spit sprayed from his mouth. "Should have seen the threat of me taking over the ship a long time ago! The Crew all saw it from the start!"
He effortlessly through down his sword, "Now what? I can't die Jack..." he smiled at his victory, then frowned as a realisation occured "...And neither can you..."
