Picture:
Personality:
Jack Sparrow is noted for his unusual demeanor, characterized by a slightly drunken stagger and wild, flailing arm and hand gestures that made him appear unfocused and possibly ataxic. This was possibly due in part to the hot climate of the Caribbean, and a large amount of time spent on the deck of various ships–though it should be noted he seemed fairly sure-footed onboard a ship. However, it is more likely that his demeanor is due to a common affliction of most sailors of that era–a combination of lots of rum, very few fruits and vegetables, and a tendency to accidentally hit one's head quite often on low-hanging bulkheads below the decks of a ship. It was rumored that Jack suffered heat stroke while marooned on a desert island after Hector Barbossa's mutiny aboard the Black Pearl.
Jack could be extremely serious on occasion, such as after shooting Barbossa on Isla de Muerta. Jack's seemingly-perpetual drunkenness may have been the cause of his slurred speech.
Average in height and build, Sparrow relied more on intelligence, agility, and quick wit to protect himself, rather than physical strength. He frequently outmaneuvered enemies with his words but when forced to fight he was still a formidable opponent.
Sparrow was decent if self-serving, man who adhered to the Pirates' Code. He believed pirates could still be "good men," which was his evaluation of Bootstrap Bill Turner. Unusually altruistic for a pirate, Sparrow would risk himself to save others, most notably Will and Elizabeth. Even after being bent on achieving immortality, Jack would not do so if it came at the cost of others. It was shown when he was choosing to stab Davy Jones' heart himself or letting Will Turner stab it, and when he admitted having less interest in using the Fountain of Youth after learning it required the sacrifice of another individual. It was partly this benevolence that led the crew to the mutiny aboard the Black Pearl, according to Barbossa.
As often as Sparrow saved Elizabeth and Will, however, he also tricked them to serve his own purposes and even offered up Will to Davy Jones in exchange for himself; when asked if he could condemn an innocent and friend to serve Jones forever while Jack himself roamed free, Jack merrily replied, "Yep! I'm good with it!" after a brief hesitation. In a moment of cowardice, he deserted his ship and crew to save himself from the Kraken. However, after checking his compass, he chose to return and save his shipmates.
Further evidence of his morality is when he refused to transport slaves for the East India Trading Company, and when his criminal record is read during his attempted execution at Port Royal; though it is quite extensive and includes arson and kidnapping, there is no mention of murder or rape. Jack also claimed to be a man of his word, and often expressed surprise that people doubt his truthfulness.
Jack is known for having created or at least contributed to, his own reputation. For example, when Gibbs tells Will Turner that he escaped a desert island by strapping two sea turtles together, Jack embellishes the story by claiming that the rope was made from his own back hair. Will later threw this back at him when he asked how Will escaped from the Flying Dutchman. When Will responded with the same story, Jack remarked, "Not so easy, is it?"Sparrow was usually in a lot of debt, commonly for more than simply money. He owed Anamaria a boat after stealing the Jolly Mon and most notably had a debt with Davy Jones, with his soul as payment. Jack also revealed he was in debt with all Pirate Lords at the meeting at Shipwreck Cove; Sao Feng was particularly hateful towards him. After their relationship didn't work out, Jack owed a debt to Angelica after breaking her heart, which he repaid by saving her life at the Fountain of Youth.
Whenever he made an escape, Sparrow often gave the farewell of, "This is the day that you will always remember as the day that you almost caught Captain Jack Sparrow!", which was sometimes humorously cut off.
Jack wore the clothing and effects common to pirates of his time, though marked himself apart from his fellow crewmen by adopting a dress style that projected an air of flamboyance and a touch of the dandy.
Jack wore long sea boots and long, hard-wearing linen trousers. A knotted striped-red sash was tied around his waist, where he would stow his pistol when not in use. On Jack's back was a long brown coat that he would remove when the need arose to either swim or if the air got too hot. A faded blue waistcoat with a shorter lightly-colored back area and a torn white undershirt made up the rest of the ensemble. The left cuff of the undershirt was ripped, and it was through this hole that Jack slipped his left hand. A red bandanna was always wrapped around his head, complemented by his piece of eight (a small, ancient Siamese coin woven into Moroccan beads) draped over his forehead. After his piece of eight was destroyed in the ritual to release Calypso he replaced it with a Kraken tooth, Jack later replaced the Kraken tooth with a new trinket that had finger bones with a Chinese luck coin tied to some copper wire around one, and a barrel bead around the other, a red bead, and Jack's tooth.
Jack's first belt was too long for his waist and so was tied to fit his frame, until about a year later when Jack would come by a second belt with a much more decorative buckle. On this new belt, he attached some odd new additions; a chicken foot, two small different pieces of animal pelt, one longer than the other, and two small trinkets.
Jack's distinctive look was accentuated by dreadlocked dark brown to black hair and a goatee beard. He seems to have a perpetual sore or abrasion on the right side of his chin, next to his goatee that never seems to heal. The first of these two beads, one red and one white, were given to him by Tia Dalma as a means of unlocking the eye of Stone-Eyed Sam. Jack braided these into his hair during a confrontation with the spirit of Hernán Cortés. His hair was adorned with all manner of beads and trinkets gathered from all over the world, each one reminding him of a different adventure, including metallic Kuchi beads on the left. He would later add some pieces of red ribbon to his hair.
Jack's hat was his most valued part of his appearance; a faded-black tricorne that still served its purpose, despite its aged appearance. The hat brim was used to drink water from when arriving at a well and in the crown area were trapped scorpions of a deadly variety.
Jack wore four rings on his hands, though he originally only wore one. The first of these was a silver skull ring set with a single green emerald which Jack wore on the index finger of his right hand. The second was a silver and jade oriental dragon ring which he obtained during an adventure in the Far East. Jack wore this ring on his left index finger until he stole his third ring, a gold and amethyst Greco-Roman ring from Tia Dalma. Jack then wore this new acquisition on his left index finger and moved the dragon ring to his left thumb. Jack's final ring was a gold onyx Spanish flower ring which he stole from a wealthy Spanish widow. Along with the rings, Jack saw fit to tie pieces of worn fabric onto his hand. As well as four rings, Jack also wore a shredded wristband on his right wrist.He had two tattoos on his right forearm marking him as a pirate; one, the distinctive "P" brand marked on pirates by members of the East India Trading Company—this one in particular administered by Cutler Beckett—and a tattoo of a sparrow flying across a setting sun. This was a well-known identifying mark, signifying that the bearer has sailed all of the Seven Seas. Jack's back is also extensively tattooed with a 15th-century poem called the 'Desiderata', although this is rarely seen in the movies - its only appearance on film is during the Davy Jones' Locker sequence. It is visible on the bare back of one of the Jack Sparrow copies shortly before he is stabbed by the 'real' Jack.
Among the beads and trinkets in his hair, there was a reindeer shin bone hanging off of a single strand. On his arms and chest, there were many scars and gashes, the result of some of his previous adventures. On Jack's left wrist was a shred of old lace, which was a trophy piece from a young lady after he had reacquired the Black Pearl

History:
Jack Sparrow is an infamous pirate captain in the Caribbean. The son of Captain Edward Teague, Jack was born onboard a ship caught in the middle of a typhoon, off the coast of India. In his childhood, Jack had embarked on many adventures and quests. Sometime later, Jack was employed in service for the East India Trading Company and was given command of the Wicked Wench. However, after he set free a cargo of slaves, his employer, Cutler Beckett, had Jack branded as a pirate and the Wench to be set aflame and sunk. After failing to rescue the Wench, Sparrow struck a bargain with the ghostly captain of the Flying Dutchman, Davy Jones, to resurrect his beloved vessel, renamed the Black Pearl, and began a new life as a pirate. At some point in his career, Jack obtained the title of Pirate Lord, his domain is the Caribbean Sea.
After two years of being captain, Jack lost the Pearl by a mutiny led by his First Mate, Hector Barbossa, while searching for Isla de Muerta, which hid the treasure of Cortés. With the aid of William Turner and Elizabeth Swann, Jack had the Pearl in his possession once again, after lifting the curse of Cortés and defeating Barbossa. Jack later began his search for the Dead Man's Chest in order to settle his debt to Davy Jones in his favor, which ended with him being taken to Davy Jones' Locker by the Kraken. Jack escaped from the Locker to help the resurrected-Hector Barbossa rally the Brethren Court to stand up and fight against Cutler Beckett's armada, which included the Flying Dutchman. After the War Against Piracy, Jack lost the Pearl again and began a perilous quest to find the Fountain of Youth, where he was reunited with Angelica. Throughout the voyage, Jack encountered many dangers along the way, including zombies, mermaids, and Blackbeard, the captain of the Queen Anne's Revenge.
Over the course of time, Jack became the stuff of legend and many tales were told of his exploits, with most of these tales, however, were fabrications concocted by Sparrow to bolster his reputation. Despite his many deceptions though, Jack did embark on a great number of adventures, many of which involved the supernatural and various legends of pirate lore. Indeed, Jack's ultimate ambition was to achieve immortality and the freedom to sail the Seven Seas as a legendary pirate for eternity and he has become immortal to sail the ocean's and he has even crossed to see the 21st century and it's weirdness of how people dresses and make their actions Jack thinks it's very peculiar and interesting century and to live to see is well rare would you not say so eh, savvy?

Sample Post(First character needed others are entirely up to you):
RP Sample:
Jack rested himself on the railing of his ship. It was nights like these he often enjoyed. The quietness that filtered around him settled him and helped ease his weary worn mind. He had many things to do; a lot of thoughts racing through that had of his. He could barely keep up with his own imagination. Jack found himself often wondering if this life was worth it. He never had anything, and anything he had it was often taken away from him. Anything he longed for, sojourned for; sought after; treasured--it was all taken away at the drop of the hat, and more times than one it was his hat that hit the deck along with his thoughts, imaginings, future plans--sometimes they all crashed and burned around him; however, sometimes--oh sometimes they actually worked out for him; but quite often his own allegiances and alliances rather got in the way. The Black Pearl was docked at Nightshade Bay at the moment and anyone could walk onboard if that same person had a dinghy.
He glanced at Gibbs as he began to speak "Ye know me, sir, I am like a thief amongst wolves listening after pirating news or regarding yer ship that we have now back but the tales sir I am about to tell ye a woman came earlier this evening asking bout ye, I told her ye were in town so she cursed some in Spanish ye know of whom I am tellin bout sir that girl from Seville the one ye heartbroken sir..."
Jack's brow quirked at the discovery. Angelica was it? She had come by had she? Inquiring of him, even. It seemed surreal; unreal; unusual; however simply expected at the same time. He nodded his head and continued to listen; not yet speaking as he mulled over this new information, trying to figure what he could do and make of this current situation. "So how is it going with ladies sir, i told ye women are bad for a ship sir but no one listens to me I am just a superstitious fool aye?"
Jack nodded his head as he sipped from his bottle that sloshed greedily in his hand; nearly losing some of the contents onto his precious ship below. "Latest news in the pirating world sir, is something about a sword that controls every ship with black magic i think it is the same sword that captain Blackbeard bestowed sir, and something about Port Royal ah yes, i think i know what tis means Jack..., yes the spaniards sir on that merchant there were mentioning it, they had a passanger who asked about the Sword and that same person was going to find Beckett, aye that is what i heard sir..."
Jack mulled the news over in his mind momentarily before glancing back at the waves below. "What am I to do about it Gibbs? Take the current as it serves; no turnin myself back now Gibbs... a man with out a plan; always seems to be better than a man with all his findings figured out all at once... savvy?" Jack sipped his rum momentarily before turning and walking the deck of the Pearl, taking in the sea salt air around him. He rather enjoyed the weather outside; the alluring temptations of the atmosphere; Jack loved the ocean and the ocean was what Jack truly was.
