Basic Details
Age: 31
Species: Human
Physical Appearance:
{Are you blind? I thought I gave you pretty little images already, bloody bilge rats.}
Personality:
"He possesses the meticulous style and old-school manners of a proper gentleman, but beneath that veneer lies a vindictive enemy who will not rest until all his enemies have been defeated… and humiliated." [Hook's Casting Call]
Hook has vast spectrum of personality, ranging from a flirtatious gentleman to vengeful pirate, using whichever one he needs to put up an act to get what he wants and manipulate who he wants. Somehow, he still manages to hold up the manners of a gentleman, even if he's snuck into your palace and stabbed your guard in the neck. He's sly, like most pirates are, pretending to be the "good guy" to convince others to get what he wants. (Or get what another person wants.) As long as there's a sweet bargain at the end for him, Hook will most likely join the cause. Like gold, rum, women, or...revenge on a crocodile. He's shown somewhat of a "respectable" side, especially when he gives back Aurora's heart to Mulan to make the fight fair.

Weaknesses
Psychological Flaws...
Tick. Tock.Yep bringing in this flaw.It may not be "cannon" in Once Upon a Time, but it was a big thing for the original Disney's Captain Hook. Hook has a horrid fear of clocks, mostly because the ticking reminds him of the "crocodile" (or in this case, Rumple) that took his hand. (The crocodile had swallowed a clock that continues to tick.) It scares him out of his wits, making him call upon Mister Smee to save him quite often.SwagPride
Hook is a fearsome Captain with a reputation of living by a "code," and doesn't back down from any duels if he is challenged. He always plays fair, but the fact that he never backs down for a challenge could put him into danger. Especially if he underestimates his opponent and has no chance of winning.
Physical Flaws...
Mortal
Hook is human, so therefore he can be killed, harmed, poisoned, butchered, maimed, plagued, what have you. He's already lost one hand, I think that's prove enough.
Other Flaws...
I'll slay that crocodile!
Anyways, Hook has sworn vengeance on Rumple for taking his hand as well as the life of his beloved Milah. Who can say if this rage could blind him within a fight and cost him more than he bargained for? Heck, it's already led him to working with Cora.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
History....
{Before the Curse}
Before becoming Captain Hook, he was known as Killian Jones. He first met Rumplestiltskin and Milah at a tavern where he was entertaining Milah with stories of the lands he had visited. Rumplestiltskin approaches the table and asks Milah to come home with him, to which she declined. Jones made a comment about how Rumplestiltskin was taller than Milah described, before Baelfire appeared in the tavern.
At her son's appearance, she left with him and Rumplestiltskin. The next day, Jones and his crew seemingly kidnap Milah, and Rumplestiltskin goes to his ship to ask him to give Milah back to him. Jones says that he is a man with a code of honor, and that if Rumplestiltskin can fight him and win, he will allow Milah to go back with Rumplestiltskin. But when he throws the sword to Rumplestiltskin, Rumplestiltskin won't fight, and so concedes to Jones.
Several years later, Jones returns to the same tavern where he met Milah and proceeds to drink and enjoy a good time with his crew. In the alley outside the tavern, he is bumped into by a seemingly helpless beggar, whom he then makes fun of calling him less of a rat and more like a crocodile. The beggar begins to laugh hideously, and casts off his cloak to reveal that he is none other than the Dark One and therefore, Rumplestiltskin.
Rumplestiltskin asks Jones where Milah is, and at first Jones pretends not to know her, then tells Rumplestiltskin that she died years ago. Rumplestiltskin challenges Jones to a duel, but takes Jones' sword, saying that he finds something poetic about killing Jones with it. The two battle and Rumplestiltskin eventually gains the upper hand by plunging his hand into Jones' chest to rip his heart out.
At this moment, Milah appears and orders Rumplestiltskin to stop, saying that she will give him the magic bean held by William Smee if he will spare both hers and Jones' life. She also reveals that she and Jones are lovers, and she joined his crew of her own free will. Rumplestiltskin agrees and the next day meets both Jones and Milah on board the ship. Milah offers him the bean, but then tosses it to Jones as Rumplestiltskin moves towards her in a fit of rage. Jones clenches it in his fist as he watches Rumplestiltskin rip Milah's heart out. He runs to her side and holds her in his arms as Milah tells him she loves him. She dies in his arms as Rumplestiltskin crumbles her heart into dust.
Rumplestiltskin demands the bean, but Jones refuses. In response, Rumplestiltskin cuts off his left hand, which supposedly holds the bean. Jones cries out in pain, then grabs a hook near Milah's corpse and drives it into Rumplestiltskin's chest. Rumplestiltskin laughs and disappears in a cloud of dark red smoke, leaving the hook to clatter to the deck. Jones takes the hook and replaces his left hand with it, before burying Milah at sea. He then tosses the magic bean, which was concealed in his other hand, into the sea, and states that he and his crew are going to a place where youth is eternal. When Smee asks the name of this place, Jones, now Hook, says, "Neverland".
Sometime later, Hook returns to Fairytale Land and breaks into the Evil Queen's palace to learn from Belle how to kill Rumplestiltskin. Belle cannot provide him with an answer but the Evil Queen steps in and informs Hook that she plans to cast a curse that will transport all to a Land without Magic, where Rumplestiltskin could be destroyed much more easily. In exchange for this information she asks that he travel, via Jefferson's hat, to Wonderland and rip out the heart of her mother Cora; to do this, the Queen enchants the Captain's hook to be able to perform the task. She requires that her mother's corpse be returned to her homeworld, so she sends a dead soldier with him.
Upon arrival at Cora's palace in Wonderland, where she is known as the Queen of Hearts, Hook attempts to rip out her heart, but she had since removed and hidden it. Hook then tells Cora that her very own daughter Regina sent him to kill her. Hook is then swayed into a partnership, when Cora tells him that it would be impossible for him to enact his revenge in the Land without Magic, as he would no longer remember. If he would help Cora get close enough to Regina to rip out her heart, Hook was promised that he would not forget his hatred for Rumplestiltskin.
Returning to Fairytale Land soon before the casting of the Dark Curse, Cora and Hook change plans after Regina confesses she still loves her mother. Instead, the two flee to an island over which Cora casts a protective shield that keeps them and all of the Safe Haven's inhabitants safe from the curse. There, Hook learns from Cora, they will wait and plan for 28 years until the curse is broken.
{After the Curse}
In present day Fairytale Land, Captain Hook is shown standing on a seashore near the small island hamlet where the survivors of the Dark Curse live. Cora approaches and stands beside him, she then shows him the ashes of the wardrobe. He asks if the ashes can get them to the other world, and Cora replies by saying it's a start. Hook responds by saying that Cora will get to meet her daughter, and he will get to skin a crocodile (referring to Rumplestiltskin).
Princess Aurora discovers Captain Hook beneath a pile of bodies, and Hook attempts to deceive the four of them by stating he survived Cora's attack on the camp by hiding under some dead bodies. Emma is not buying his story and pulls a knife on Hook's throat, stating that she wants the truth and she can tell when a person is lying. She ties Hook to a tree and whistles for the ogres, and begins to walk away. Hook then reveals his true identity as a shocked Mary Margaret pulls his hook out of his satchel.
He states that he was working with Cora, but will now join forces with Emma and her team. He then tells Emma he knows a way to get to Storybrooke, and Emma wants to know why he would want to go to Storybrooke. He states he wishes to confront Rumplestiltskin for the loss of his hand. Emma then cuts him free. He leads them to a giant beanstalk stretching up into the sky, stating that there is a magical compass at the top, but first they must deal with the giant.
In the Fairytale Land, Hook tells the others that this beanstalk and giant are the last of their kind upon their arrival. He reveals to the four women that he possesses a counterspell from Cora that was originally intended to allow him and Cora to climb the beanstalk. Now that he has chosen to align himself with Emma and company, he can take one of them up the beanstalk with him to get the compass.
After Mary Margaret cuts Hook free from his bonds and Emma volunteers, he slaps a black cuff on Emma that glows gold briefly, and allows her to climb the beanstalk. After Emma speaks to Mulan, Emma and Hook then begin their climb.
On the beanstalk, Emma and Hook are making good progress while climbing the stalk. Hook then asks Emma about her past, to which Emma is reluctant to reply. Hook then tells her that she has a son, to which Emma replies that it is common knowledge. He then also says that Emma herself was an orphan, and that she does not want to leave Henry in that situation. Emma asks how he could possibly know that, and Hook states that while in Neverland, he spent time in the company of a group of orphans known as the Lost Boys, so he can easily recognize another orphan.
He then asks if Emma has ever been in love, and she replies never. At the top of the beanstalk, Emma and Hook arrive in the realm of the Giant. Emma asks why the place is so run down, and Hook asks her what she knows of giants. She tells him what she knows of the story of Jack and the Beanstalk. After hearing her brief synopsis, Hook states that while it is a good tale, its not quite how it happened. He reveals that there was a man named Jack who led an invasion of the giants' realm, killing everyone but one giant.
Emma then asks him about the tattoo on his arm for Milah, and Hook mentions that it is in memory of someone he knew long ago. Emma states that he loved Milah, and Hook states that he did, and for Emma as a woman claiming not to have fallen in love, she is perceptive in love. Emma acknowledges then that she may have been in love once. Hook takes a human bone and uses it to pound on a massive metal shield to summon the Giant from his lair.
The Giant then comes storming out and sees Hook. Hook then leads the Giant around towards Emma by taunting him. The Giant follows him and then Emma throws the potion in the Giant's face, knocking him unconscious. At first, Emma believes Hook to be smushed, but Hook shows up and congratulates her on knocking the Giant out cold before proceeding inside. In the Giant's home on top of the beanstalk, Hook and Emma wander through the place, Emma looking for the magical compass while Hook seems to have more of an eye on the treasure all around him.
Emma states for Hook to pay attention and that she needs the compass. Hook tucks a golden coin in his belt and then walks past Emma, stating all they need is right in front of them. Back in the Giant's lair, Emma and Hook stumble across the skeleton of Jack the Giant Killer. All that remains is his bones, a few tattered bits of cloth, and a large sword with Jack's name inscribed on it. As Hook prepares to search further, Emma grabs a hold of him to save him for tripping over a tripwire. Hook takes this as a sign of affection from Emma, which she refutes immediately. The two then resume the search for the compass.
Back in the Giant's lair, Hook believes he sees the compass on top of a golden bird cage. He asks Emma to give him a boost, to which Emma retorts she should be the one being boosted. He asks Emma to trust him. Emma remains silent for a few moments before they hear the sound of the Giant pounding up behind them. Roaring in fury, he storms towards them, and his movements loosen stones from the ceiling and seemingly crush Hook beneath them.
After fighting the Giant,Emma then goes to Hook and pulls him out from under the rocks, and shows him the magical compass. Hook reaches for it, but Emma tucks it back into her coat pocket. Then she clamps a manacle on Hook, stating that she cannot fully trust him. She turns and leaves as Hook roars at her for her to come back and free him. When Emma jumps to the ground with the compass in her hand, Aurora asks about Hook, to which Emma responds he is fine but that he is a bit held up.
Later, Hook is shown to be climbing down the beanstalk, and landing at the bottom, hears Cora speak behind him. The two talk, and Hook tells her that he was planning to bring her the compass once he had gotten it from the Giant, but that Emma had taken it. Cora dimisses this saying it may have seemed boring to Hook but to her it was a betrayal. Hook asks if she is going to kill him and challenges her to try.
She tells him that she is not going to kill him, but that she was going to leave him alone with his vengeance unfulfilled. He attacks her, but she disappears, leaving him face down in the dirt. The next time Hook is seen, he is waking up Aurora in her cell and setting her free. She asks why he is letting her go, and he replies that he wants to see Cora suffer. He asks Aurora to deliver the message that his deal with Emma still stands, and that he still wants to help her.
She leaves. Later, in Aurora's empty cell, Cora comes in to find Hook there. She binds him to the wall, and says that she will have to kill him, but he replies he should be thanking her and that he brought her a gift. He tells her that it is in the satchel which Cora takes and looks into. A few minutes later, he is seen with Cora as she listens to Aurora and her companions through her heart.
He comments on something he told her, and then Cora congratulates him on taking out a heart. Hook proposes that they continue to Storybrooke together, and once Cora agrees, he leaves, presumably to get the compass from Emma.
With Aurora's heart in hand, he and Cora trap Aurora, Mulan, Emma and Mary Margaret in Rumpelstiltskin's old cell having used Aurora to lower the cell gate against her will. When the three women attempt to confront Aurora over her 'betrayal', Cora unveils Aurora's heart from beneath her cloak, and when it is believed Cora was the one to take it, Hook reveals otherwise as Cora gently squeezes the heart, causing Aurora great pain. As he and Cora leave the cell, Hook confronts Emma on leaving him atop the beanstalk when she tries to make him reconsider.
He shows her a 'souvenir' from his encounter with the giant - the dead and last magic bean that formerly hung around the giant's neck - and taunts her that much like Emma herself, the bean is something that was once magical and full of hope but is now 'dried up, dead and useless.' He leaves with Cora, but not before stating to Emma he is done with her. To restore enough magic to the wardrobe ashes, Hook and Cora go to Lake Nostos, whose water Cora restores in order to create the portal.
Hook throws the ashes into the water to create the portal but as he and Cora prepare to enter it compass in hand, Mary Margaret arrives alongside Emma and Mulan and fires an arrow shooting the compass out of their hands. He and Emma fight for the compass while Mulan battles Cora and Mary Margaret fires arrows between the two in assistance but in fighting her, Cora disappears within a cloud of smoke save the satchel that holds Aurora's heart.
Mulan manages to momentarily catch it on the tip of her sword however her movements direct it within course of the portal. While the others can only watch helplessly, Hook, mid-fight and using Emma as a counter weight, literally bends over backwards over the portal and catches Aurora's heart before tossing it to Mulan and becoming both the man who stole Aurora's heart and the man who saved it. He defends that he may be a pirate but he bristles at the thought of a woman losing her heart, unless over him. With Aurora's heart in Mulan's care and being rushed back to Aurora, Hook and Emma continue their sword-fight however, in the belief that he is winning, Emma retrieves the compass and knocks Hook out cold.
After the portal closes upon Emma and Mary Margaret's return to Storybrooke leaving only the waters of Lake Nostos, Cora looks at the waters in disappointment that they have failed however Hook once again reveals the 'souvenir' from his possession in the knowledge that the waters will restore the magic the bean once held and transport them to Storybrooke. It is with this that while the newly reunited Charming family enter Granny's diner in celebration in Storybrooke, Hook's ship emerges through the fog gliding across the sea surrounding Storybrooke with Hook and Cora on board.
