CAPTAIN DAVY JONES

Davy Jones, a human and a great sailor, fell in love with

Calypso, a sea goddess. She entrusted him with the task of
ferrying the souls of those who died at sea to the next
world.[10] Calypso gave him the Flying Dutchman to
accomplish this task. She swore that after ten years, she
would meet him and they would spend one day together
before he returned to his duties. However, when Jones
returned to shore after ten years, Calypso failed to appear.
Believing Calypso had betrayed him, a heartbroken and
enraged Davy Jones turned the Pirate Brethren against
her, saying that if she were removed from the world, they
would be able to claim the seas for themselves. They
assembled in the First Brethren Court and Jones
successfully taught them how to imprison her into her
human form.[11]
Despite betraying her, Jones still loved Calypso, and in despair and guilt for what he had done,
he carved out his own heart from his body and placed it in the "Dead Man's Chest". The Chest
was sealed and placed within a larger wooden chest, along with Jones' numerous love letters to
Calypso and all other items having to do with her, except his matching musical locket. The chest
was then buried on Isla Cruces. Jones kept the chest's key with him at all times, leaving the
locket beside the massive pipe organ aboard the Dutchman. With Calypso gone, Jones
abandoned his duties and returned to the Seven Seas. As a result of this, Jones gradually
became monstrous, his physical appearance merging with various aquatic fauna. Sailors
everywhere would fear him to the death, for Davy Jones had turned fierce and cruel, with an
insatiable taste for all things brutal. Jones recruits dying sailors by promising them a reprieve
from death in exchange for 100 years of service aboard the Dutchman. During this time, he
comes to command the Kraken, a feared mythological sea monster.
