What Prevents Him From Being Pure Good?[]
- While he did do them in order to ensure the safety of Elizabeth and his father, he was willing to betray Jack and his crew and make deals with antagonists Sao Feng, Davy Jones and Beckett, which can be kinda reckless choices whereas the latters doesn't respect the agreements. Because of it, he didn't think to the consequences of his acts.
Trivia[]
- He and Elizabeth Swann are the only Pirates of the Caribbean heroes to be Near Pure Good, which makes sense as, despite technically being pirates, they were one of the few characters not to be at the start of the series, which makes them one of the few characters to not be anti-heroes.
