» Name: Killian Jones, AKA Captain Hook
» Canon: Once Upon a Time
» Reference: http://onceuponatime.wikia.com/wiki/Captain_Hook
» Canon Point: 2x11
» Gender: Male
» Age: At least 300. Physically, around 30. He’s spent an unknown amount of time in Neverland where he didn’t age, so it’s hard to say precisely how old he is. However, Rumplestiltskin is 300, and Hook’s at least as old as him.
CHARACTER INTERPRETATION
» Appearance: Killian Jones looks every bit the dashing swashbuckler. He’s got dark hair and s short, scruffy beard. His eyes are bright and blue. He mostly wears black leather with various rings and necklaces and a single earring to show off the wealth he’s accumulated through pirating.
Also he’s got a freaking hook where his left hand should be.
» Suitability: N/A
» Orientation: Hook is predominantly heterosexual. He’s mostly only interacted with female characters and been incredibly flirty with all of them, and he’s been shown in a romantic relationship with one female character and obviously pursuing another female character. He’s very flirtatious with everyone, though, so it’s possible there is some fluidity there.
» Personality: Killian Jones, or Captain Hook, outwardly oozes sexuality. He enjoys flirting with every woman he comes into contact with and can get a lot just by being pretty and smiling in just the right way. He hasn’t interacted with many men on screen, but even with them he has a tendency to stand a little too close and be a little too touchy. However, for the most part he doesn’t mean anything by the charm. It isn’t that he’s opposed to random hook-ups (excuse the pun), he just doesn’t find them nearly as interesting as a woman who proves a challenge. When a woman really interests him, he redoubles his efforts, leveling up from smarm to godawful innuendo.
Killian is unapologetically a scoundrel, not only with his thirst for revenge but with his tendency to steal as much as he can. He is a pirate by trade, after all. He can be very immature as well, and overdramatic. He does have a noble, courageous side as well, but it doesn’t come out much. It used to come out more before Milah died, but he’s abandoned that for revenge. He’s still kept his sense of humor, though. He enjoys making jokes about his lack of a hand and incredibly blatant and somewhat terrible innuendo. Verbal banter still amuses him, and he frequently mocks others.
He is a very selfish character. Once, he was driven by love. After the woman he loved was killed, he was driven by revenge. Three hundred years later, the revenge has stopped being about making Rumplestiltskin pay for what he did for Milah and more about making Rumplestiltskin pay for what he did to Killian. Cutting off his hand had hurt, of course, but far more painful was watching Milah die in his arms. Killing Rumplestiltskin is nearly impossible, so Killian’s settled for hurting him. And by hurting him, I mean hurting the woman Rumplestiltskin loves because Killian’s learned that it hurts so much more to lose love than to die. This is why I’m convinced it’s his own pain he’s concerned about and Milah’s death is just the excuse.
Between the revenge and the pain, Killian has been twisted from a good-hearted scoundrel to a villain that’s rotten through the core. The worst part is, he knows it. Killian sees the world in very black and white terms. There are good guys and there are bad guys. He doesn’t really consider the possibility of doing good things for bad reasons or vice versa. He’s long ago given himself over to being a bad guy. For a while, he tried to cling to some semblance of good, keeping to a sort of code, but in pursuit of revenge, he’s given all that up. He’ll go to whatever depths are necessary if it’ll get him his revenge.
But he doesn’t like the person he’s become, and he doesn’t enjoy the semblance of living he’s been clinging to. Living for revenge isn’t really living at all, and he’s been doing it for 300 years. Somewhere along the way, he started to want it all to end. He isn’t desperate enough to actually kill himself, but he certainly has very little regard for danger. Whether he kills Rumplestiltskin or Rumplestiltskin kills him, he’ll have won. If he can hurt Rumplestiltskin along the way, so much the better.
