== Background ==
=== Appearance ===
For being in his forties, Jack looks young and handsome. He has chocolate brown hair and eyes. As a pirate, Jack doesn't have thatmuch greatclothing. He also wore a faded black tricorne, red bandana, and rings on his finger. He also notably wore four rings, one of them belongingto Angelica.
He had two tattoos on his right forearm marking him as a pirate; one, the distinctive "P" brand marked on pirates by members of the East India Trading Company—this one in particular administered by Cutler Beckett—and a tattoo of a sparrow flying across a setting sun. This was a well-known identifying mark, signifying that the bearer has sailed all of the Seven Seas. Jack's back was also extensively tattooed with a 15th century poem called the 'Desiderata', although this was rarely seen as it was only visible on Jack's bare back. On Jack's left wrist was a tattered shred of old lace, which was a trophy piece from Angelica, which was most likely given to him some time after Jack had retrieved the Black Pearl from Barbossa's cursed crew
=== Personality ===
When Jack was a young man, he tended to be a trouble-maker, often being labelled as one of the "biggest troublemaker in the Seven Seas." Jack has also displayed some heroic traits.  This makes Will claim that though Jack may be a pirate, he is a good man. He is rather comical, but later on grows as a character. 
Jack is also serious several times within the series, despite being all laughs. One, is when Bilbo is in trouble, Jack yells at him for almost getting killed.  However, this could be because Bilbo bears the Mark of Calypso. Another time is when Elizabeth believes they returned to the World of the Living he seriously tells her they are not back. 
Jack also shows signs of being heroic at times. For one, Jack refused to let Elizabeth and Bilbo drown, so he goes inside the ocean and rescues the both of them. Another time is that afterhe knocks Bilbo out and basically kidnaps him, Jack sees his compass pointing the otherway to the crew, and nowJack realizes that is what he wants most: to help his friends. AtWorld's End, Jack seeks out immortality and when he gains it, Jack will free Will's father and ferry the souls into the next world.
However, when it comes time to stab it, Jones kills William, now causing Jack to do the right thing and let Will stab the heart, thus ensuring his friend and opponent a life of immortality. He also forcibly drags a distraught Bilbo Baggins and frantic Elizabeth Swann to safety. 
In On Stranger Tides, he goes far to rescue Mr. Gibbs from his prison sentance and becomes protective over Bilbo, the bearer of Calypso's mark
== Relationships ==
=== Will Turner ===
Despite the fact Will betrayed Jack numerous times, Sparrow still considered Turner a friend and would even stab the heart of Davy Jones to free Bootstrap.
