*Captain Hook has always been an extravagantly vengeful pirate who lives life on the edge. But now his intense hypervigilance has been amplified even further, so he can perceive the minutest of flaws and weaknesses in others, and strike them where it hurts the most.*
### Mirrorverse Role

*In the Mirrorverse reflection of Neverland, Captain Hook has become the ultimate sword-swinging duelist on land or sea. Ever watchful of his enemies, Hook thrives on testing his amplified skills against the Fractured, challenging their most fearsome fighters to one-on-one contests… and always walking away the winner.*
### Battle Supplies

*Elegantly fitted for a battle to the finish, Captain Hook sports an extravagant ensemble wrapped in crocodilian-motif armor to announce to the entire Mirrorverse that he is a fearsome force to be reckoned with. In one hand, he holds his trusty pirate steel and in his other… well… his hook.*
### Mirrorverse Abilities

*Captain Hook lives to prove that no one can compare to his skills with the sword. While other Guardians succeed by teaming up on their opponents, he’s at his best when he’s dueling them in single combat. His lightning-quick blade and fearsome hook have spelled the end for a countless number of the Fractured.*
## Design

“*Hook, an extremely vengeful pirate who is often just shy of becoming a nervous wreck, has had his intense vigilance amplified even further by Stellar Magic, making his greatest flaw into his greatest strength! Able to percieve the tiniest weaknesses in others, Hook excels at striking his foes where it hurts the most.*”
―*The World of Disney Mirrorverse,* pg. 133

The alligator skin on his coat is *not* Tick-Tock, the idea of this design is to show him "owning" his greatest fears. His accessories were designed to invoke the elegance of Hook and not anything gruesome. However, his skin coat and sword are set as reminders that he is still a competent villain despite his goofiness.
