Ay! Avast!
Name:: William Turner
Age:: 20 years
Family:: Bootstrap Bill Turner || soon to be married to Elizabeth Swann
About Your Character:: Will is the son and only child of the pirate "Bootstrap Bill" Turner. He bears a great resemblance to his father, both in appearance and in physical ability. He never saw his father during his years in England and thought he was a merchant seaman. When his mother died 12 year old William went looking for his father in the Caribbean but his ship was attacked by the Black Pearl, he was the only survivor. He was rescued by LT. James Norrington and Weatherby Swann. Years later Will becomes a blacksmith, and when Elizabeth is captured by the Black Pearl he seeks Captain Jack Sparrow. He rescues Jack from jail, and they get rescue Elizabeth. But the crew on The Black Pearl discover that Will is Bootstrap's only son, and they need his blood, so they capture him. In the end Captain Barbossa "dies" and Elizabeth and Will's relationship blossoms.
Will and Elizabeth are later arrested by a wealthy man named Lord Cutler Beckett. Beckett deals with Will and says that if he gets Captain Jack Sparrow's compass then he will free Elizabeth and him, but if not they shall both be hung. And so William goes off to look for Jack. He finds him on an island where the natives think he is their God. Will is put in a spherical cage of bones by the natives, but escapes the cage with the rest of the crew. Will flees the island with the last of the Pearl's crew and saves Jack, who makes it to the Pearl just in time to escape with his life. Once Will explains his situation to Jack, Jack tells him that he will give him the compass if he finds a certain key on Davy Jones' ship. Will meets his father Bootstrap Bill when he is enslaved by Davy Jones. Will plays a game of Liar's Dice to discover the location of the key to Davy Jones' Chest, although Bootstrap is enslaved eternally in the process. Will successfully steals the key and promises to destroy the Heart of Davy Jones hidden within the Chest, free his father, and free all the crew of the Dutchman. Once the Dutchman submerges itself to hide from Jack, Ex-Commodore Norrington and Elizabeth, Will makes his way to the shore of the island of Davy Jones' Chest. However, once the Chest is opened, Will brings Jack to the point of his sword, intending to stab the Heart to fulfill his promise, but is instead caught in a three-way battle between himself, Jack and Norrington, all who wish to claim the heart for their own purposes. Although Jack makes it to his boat with the Heart, Norrington steals it and flees, making his way back to Port Royal. Will later devises a plan to help the crew of the Pearl from the Davy Jones' beast, the Kraken. He gathers all the gunpowder and (to the crew's dismay) rum on the ship, ties them in a net, and lets Jack shoot them in order to singe and fend off the Kraken. However, this only serves to anger the beast, and Will escapes the scene with what is left of the Pearl's crew, except for Jack, who was tied to the ship's mast by Elizabeth so the Kraken would no longer chase them. However, the escape is not entirely satisfactory to Will, as he was made witness to a long and passionate kiss between his beloved fiancee and Sparrow. Obviously this bothers Will because he does not know that the kiss was plainly just a trick to get Jack to go down with his ship. Will agrees at the end to help get Jack back.
