Kingdom Hearts II

Pirates of the Caribbean (2003)

A very talented swordsmith. As a boy, Will was rescued at sea after pirates burned his ship and left him to drown. About the same time he was rescued, the pirate medallion his father had given him disappeared.

Young Elizabeth Swann was aboard the ship that rescued Will, and they've been friends ever since. As Elizabeth's father is governor of Port Royal, Will is a bit shy and rather formal around her.

Story

Kingdom Hearts II

First Visit

Will first approaches Sora after the town is cleared of Heartless and tells about the kidnapping of Elizabeth Swan. Sora, Donald, Goofy, and Will approach Captain Jack Sparrow and ask him to sail them all to the Isle De Muerte where the pirates have taken Elizabeth. After arriving Jack and Will sneak in the cave but Jack is hit in the head with an oar and rendered unconscious by Will. Will gets Elizabeth away from the pirates and takes her back to the boat where Sora and company are waiting they then set sail for Port Royal, leaving Jack behind.

While mending Elizabeth's wound Will learns that the pirates need his blood, not Elizabeths, to lift the curse after Elizabeth retells the story of how she found Will. The Black Pearl catches up to the Interceptor and in order to save his friends Will threatens that he will commit suicide if Barbossa doesn't let his friends go. Barbossa agrees but ties everyone up in the captains quarters aboard the Interceptor and places explosives and heartless on the deck. Jack sets them all free with his hidden knife and with Sora's help, manages to save the ship and give chase to the pirates. On the island Sora, Jack, Donald, and Goofy defeat Barbossa and Will lifts the curse so Jack can finally kill him. Barbossa's crew members are either killed or thrown in jail and Jack, Sora, Donald, Goofy, Will, and Elizabeth sail back to Port Royal and Will and Elizabeth share an embrace.

Second Visit

Prior to the trio's re-visit, Port Royal is once again haunted by cursed pirates (and Nobodies), so Will and his crew travel to Isla de Muerta to find out if the curse has been reawakened. However, his crew is attacked and wiped out by Luxord and his Gambler Nobodies while on the island. Luckily, Will manages to make to back to the ship, barely alive.

Being too worried to wait, Elizabeth travels across the ocean with Sora, Donald, Goofy, and Captain Sparrow and finds Will injured. After Sora, Donald, Goofy and Jack get blown to another ship, which is later sunk. Will and Elizabeth go to the Ship Graveyard to find them. Together, they travel around Port Royal to find the coins from the cursed Aztec treasure and return them to the chest from whence they came.

After Sora, Donald, Goofy, and Jack defeat the Grim Reaper, Will and the others throw the chest with the cursed gold into the sea, lifting the curse.

Personality

Will is a brave man. He will do anything to make sure Elizabeth is safe. He also is not afraid of pirates. He bravely threatens to commit suicide on Barbossa's ship if the pirates won't release Elizabeth, Sora, Donald and Goofy. Will is a caring person. He cares very much about Elizabeth and he also cares about Sora, Donald and Goofy. Later in the game, he also starts to care about Jack.

Appearance

Will has shoulder-length brown hair that is slicked back, brown eyes, and a faint mustache and goatee. He wears a white shirt with bishop sleeves and a v-neck, exposing his chest. The collar of this shirt is folded over a brown vest that is only halfway buttoned at the bottom. The vest sports a small pocket on either side, below a brown belt with a gold buckle that Will wears at his waist. Will's pants are dark grey or navy blue breeches with three vertical buttons on the far side of either leg. Completing his outfit are light grey knee-high socks and brown buckled shoes.

Origin

Will Turner originally appeared in the 2003 film Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. In that film, Will's role is similar to his role in the first visit to Port Royal in Kingdom Hearts II. Will also appeared in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest and in Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End. It is not sure if he will appear in the next Pirates movie, because Orlando Bloom, the man who plays the role of Will in the movies, has said that he doesn't want to play his role anymore.

Trivia

• In the Japanese cutscene, Will points a pistol to his own neck, threatening to commit suicide and "be lost to Davy Jones's Locker", true to the scene from the Pirates of the Caribbean film, although it was pointed at his head in the film. This is changed to lowering the pistol at Barbossa (quite aimlessly, as he can't die, and it is himself Will threatens to kill), in the North American version.
