'''Captain Blackeye''' is a large pirate who sits in the back room of [[Jolly Roger]]'s Tavern in [[Jolly Roger's Lagoon]]. He appears to be a pirate and he drinks perpetually. Captain Blackeye rants continuously about how a bear who looked just like [[Banjo]] (or so he believes) stole his glory. Captain Blackeye was originally planned as the main antagonist of ''[[Dream: Land of Giants]]'', which was scrapped and redeveloped into ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]''.

'''Captain Blackeye''' is a recurring character in the [[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|''Banjo-Kazooie'' series]].


==Characteristics==
A portrait of Captain Blackeye's head appears in [[Mad Monster Mansion]] of ''Banjo-Kazooie''. The head was directly taken from Blackeye's official artwork for ''Dream''.
Captain Blackeye is a large human pirate originally planned as the main antagonist of the cancelled game ''[[Dream: Land of Giants]]''. He is a perpetual drinker with depression, which is implied to be because he "had a dream once" where a bear stole his glory.


==Biography==
His purpose in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'' is very minor. If the player talks to him three times, he will threaten to attack Banjo and [[Kazooie]] if they do it again. On the fourth attempt, he will try to attack the duo (as implied by his dialogue). Blackeye is too seasick (which is also hinted to from his green face) and falls over on his back, so instead he gives Banjo and Kazooie two [[Doubloon]]s to fetch him a glass of water. However, he then faints in a comical fashion and can still be talked to as he spouts off his infamous remarks.
===''Banjo-Kazooie''===
Captain Blackeye first appears in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', although only as a cameo in the form of a portrait 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''===
He makes a cameo appearance in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts]]'' on the Boot in a box weapon. His picture is also on a wanted poster and there is also a shop called "Blackeye's Boat Hire" near the [[Logbox 720]] doors.
In ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', Captain Blackeye has a minor role, sitting in the back of a [[Jolly's|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 [[Doubloon]]s to fetch him a glass of water. Captain Blackeye then faints, but can still be interacted with as he spouts off his remarks.
 
===''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 ''[[rarewiki:Grabbed by the Ghoulies|Grabbed by the Ghoulies]]'', pictures of Captain Blackeye can be seen in various rooms of [[rarewiki:Ghoulhaven Hall|Ghoulhaven Hall]]. They look very similar to his picture in ''Banjo-Kazooie''.
 
In ''[[rarewiki:Viva Piñata|Viva Piñata]]'' and ''[[rarewiki:Viva Piñata: Pocket Paradise|Viva Piñata: Pocket Paradise]]'', a statue of Captain Blackeye called the "Pirate Statue" can be placed on the garden. In ''[[rarewiki:Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise|Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise]]'', piñatas can also wear the "Blackeye Patch."

*'''Pirate Statue description:''' "''This statue was built to remember a dream, so that we should never forget...''"
*'''Blackeye Patch description:''' "''Captain Blackeye wore one just like this. Funnily enough, the name has extra meaning. Piñatas often get a black eye from wearing this due to the fact that the patch screws up their depth perception causing painful accidents walking into things.''"

*According to Grant Kirkhope, Captain Blackeye owned a ship named "The Mudplugger".<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20130131200357/http://grantkirkhope.com/blackeye.html Grant Kirkhope's website] (Wayback Machine)</ref>

*Captain Blackeye breaks the fourth wall when you continue to speak to him, saying that if you press {{button|N64|B}} another time he will "run ye through".
*In 2015, [[Gregg Mayles]] had a unique picture of Captain Blackeye as his Twitter profile picture. The render did not have any hair nor beard.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20150616030146/https:/twitter.com/ghoulyboy Gregg Mayles (@Ghoulyboy)'s Twitter account] on Wayback Machine from 2015.</ref> Gregg later said that the render was the one they did for ''Dream: Land of Giants''.<ref>[https://twitter.com/Ghoulyboy/status/1281137790076497920 Gregg Mayles on Twitter: "It was a render @WinkySteve did for Dream, the game we worked on before scrapping it and turning it into #BanjoKazooie" / Twitter] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20200709081349/https://twitter.com/Ghoulyboy/status/1281137790076497920 archive.org])</ref>
*There's an Easter egg where if you talk to him enough, he'll say three quotes: "Arr! I had a dream once...", "I were in this fine game...", and "A bear stole me glory...looked a bit like you, 'e did!". Captain Blackeye is referencing to how he was reduced to a minor character, and how Banjo took the spotlight from him.
