Captain Blackeye is a large human pirate, planned to be the main antagonist of the cancelled game, Dream: Land of Giants, which was redeveloped into Banjo-Kazooie. He is a perpetual drinker with depression, which is strongly implied to be because the game he was going to be an antagonist in was never released.
History
Banjo-Kazooie
In Banjo-Kazooie, a portrait of Captain Blackeye appears in the mansion of Mad Monster Mansion. The portrait depicts his artwork from Dream: Land of Giants, but is cropped to his head.
Banjo-Tooie
In Banjo-Tooie, Captain Blackeye has a minor role, sitting in the back of a bar in Jolly Roger's Lagoon. If Banjo talks to him three times, he threatens to attack him and Kazooie. On the fourth attempt, he tries to attack them (as implied by his dialogue). However, Blackeye is too seasick, as shown from his green face, and falls on his back. Instead, he gives Banjo and Kazooie two Doubloons to fetch him a glass of water. Captain Blackeye then faints, but can still be interacted with as he spouts off his remarks.
Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts
In Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, Captain Blackeye makes a cameo on the Boot in a Box weapon. His picture is on a wanted poster, and there is a shop called "Blackeye's Boat Hire" near the LOGBOX 720 doors.
Other appearances
In Grabbed by the Ghoulies, pictures of Captain Blackeye can be seen in various rooms of Ghoulhaven Hall. They look very similar to his picture in Banjo-Kazooie.
In Viva Piñata: Pocket Paradise, a statue of Captain Blackeye can be placed at the garden.
