Story[edit]

Kingdom Hearts[edit]

Yellow Opera KHCOM.pngThis section of the article is astub. You can help byexpanding it.

Design[edit]

TheHeartless Pirate is made to fit in with the crew members aboardCaptain Hook's ship at first glance, though their costumes don't quite succeed in covering the traditional Heartless dark skin and toothy jaw. Bare-chested on their bellies and wearing black turtleneck shirts that are stitched into their chests, covering their upper torsos, save for the Heartless Emblem in between, Pirates are clad in brown and tan-patched pants and matching shoes, a red sash, bright yellow wristbands, and skull-shaped shoulder armor. They wear bright red bandannas on their heads that cover their eyes; in place of one eye is a black eyepatch with a white cross on it, while in place of the other is an angular black spiral.

Pirates wield a sword that boasts a wide, curved blade, similar to aChinese dao; halfway down, the blade is etched with a bright red crack and a yellow angled spiral mirroring the one on the Pirate's bandanna, which make it look like it features a frowning face. There is no hilt, though the blade is held to the handle by a heavy duty clip. The sword's grip is covered in the same bright red fabric as the sash and bandanna.

The Pirate's name is a reference to its stereotypical pirate-like appearance.Pirates were outlaws who sailed the seas, robbing and murdering passing sailors.

Strategy[edit]

Kingdom Hearts[edit]

This Heartless rears back before launching its attack, givingSora plenty of warning. If the attack is avoided, the Pirate will stumble, leaving itself open to acounterattack. If the attack is blocked or deflected, the Pirate will fall over, leaving it open to attack for a longer period of time. If Sora blocks its Aerial Attack or Jump Downswing, he will receive 24Tech Points.
