Captain Kidd (キャプテンキッド, Kyaputen Kiddo), also known as C. Kidd, is a character in the World Heroes series of fighting games. Dr. Sugar Brown recruited him from the year 1572 AD.

## Story

A great and renewed pirate with a indomitable soul who won the seven seas during the Age of Discovery. Being a pirate aboard his flying ship Empire, Captain Kidd loves treasures, dangerous things and crisis. Kidd is certainly no gentleman but he has a good heart. He is accompanied by the triplets Taka, Gee and Boo, and a vulture named Peter. While still a kid, Kidd had a pet shark named Blue Thunder, until a stormy night threw Kidd into the sea. Blue Thunder protected him from the other sharks, dying in the process. Blue Thunder's soul has since then lived within Kidd's fists.

He aspires to compete and win in the legendary Underworld Blood Bash, where strong warriors fight. He even wishes to challenge Erick the Viking, but is disappointed to find out he's from another era. Learning about the second World Heroes competition, where the strongest warriors from different eras gather, Kidds invades the tournament on board of his flying ship to challenge the fighters, mad he wasn't invited for the tournament. The reason for this is because he already robbed all of the treasures he could find,. Erick and Kidd develop a rivalry in the tournament, as both are men of the sea.

In the tournament he ends up finding the treasure of Diego del Fuego Gonzales, which he was looking for a long time. He orders his men to load the treasure to his ship. However, there's so much treasure that the ship is unable to hold itself together and breaks apart due to the weight. Captain Kidd is left adrift, desperate that the treasure is now lost in the sea. The ship Empire is remodelled by Dr. Sugar Brown and given to Kidd with a time machine inside of it.

Now returning back to his tedious days searching for treasures on the seven seas he rules, Kidd receives the news of a new World Heroes tournament and decides to participate out of boredom, this time joining properly. He ends up stealing the treasures of Zeus in the process. Now aboard his new flying ship capable of time travel, he wonders to which era he can travel to steal their treasures alongside his pirate crew.
