'''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]]''.

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.

Captain Blackeye is a large human pirate who sits in the backroom of Jolly Roger's Tavern in Jolly Roger's Lagoon 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 served as the main antagonist of Dream: Land of Giants that was redeveloped into Banjo-Kazooie.

A portrait of Captain Blackeye's head appears in Mad Monster Mansion of Banjo-Kazooie. It used artwork from Dream.

His purpose in Banjo-Tooie is 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 (as hinted with his green face) and falls over on his back, so instead, he gives Banjo and Kazooie two Doubloons to fetch him a glass of water. However, he then faints and can still be talked to as he spouts off his remarks. There is an Easter egg where if the player talks to him enough times, he will 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 how he was initially the main antagonist of Dream: Land of Giants.

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.
