User:James Maccus

This if fake. James Maccus was born to a pirate father. His father was killed by a hooded man when he was 15 years old. Captain Barbossa came and took him away to the Black Pearl. The people of the Pearl called him Scratch. He found a friend named Clubba. Scratch searched and searched for his father’s murderer but he wasn’t on the ship. Scratch became cursed along with the rest of the crew upon finding the Chest of Cortés, and spent the following years hunting down all 882 gold coins to lift the curse. He also searched for his father’s murderer. When The Black Pearl raided Port Royal he was one of the first to land. He found a woman wanting to join them. Her name was Tayler Teucher. He later was there when Elizabeth dealed with Barbossa. He also realized that his father hadn’t died by the hooded man but was suffering instead. So a man named Gillette killed his father. Later on Isla de Muerta he scares Elizabeth by making a “silt your throat” movement with his knife. During a battle for the Cursed Gold he is at the bow of the Black Pearl shooting the HMS Interceptor. He later fought on the HMS Dauntless. He sword fought Captain Gillette. Tayler went to go get a boat and stabbed anyone in her way. Clubba was sword fighting William Turner with Jacoby and Monk. But he was unsuccessful and one of Jacoby’s bombs were shoved inside of Jacoby. Before that however the trio were stabbed by a long pole, combined together. The bomb exploded sending Clubba and the other two pirate skeletons flying in different directions. Soon after, Scratch stabbed Gillette in the heart. When the Curse is lifted he is escaped with Tayler on a man boat and came across the Flying Dutchman. Clubba was hooking himself together when the curse was lifted. We felt the wound on his chest as he landed on a stalagmite. He crawled onto a piece of wood and sailed into the ocean barely alive. The captain, Davy Jones, was a new type of human creature. The whole crew was. He turned Scratch and Tayler into creatures. Scratch became Maccus and Tayler became Grubby. But Maccus called Tayler by her real name. Davy told them that Clubba passed away in Isla de Muerta. But he was lying. As with other members of Jones' crew, over time Maccus took on characteristics of the sea flora and fauna they resided amongst; most notably, his scarred head had the appearance of that of a hammerhead shark, and had sharp, fang-like teeth much like those of a shark; He had three eyes- two on either side of his head, and one in front, with the other gone, having been migrating across his face to the side of his head. Maccus' body was covered in coral, barnacles and starfish, and his left forearm and hand was encased in a lobster-shell gauntlet. Several pairs of crab legs grew out of his back. Tayler also grew characteristics of her own. She became somewhat of a Puffer fish. Her face was filled with spikes and her head could inflate and deflate.

Maccus was called to be the Jail Master. He was told to execute all in the jail. He soon found out that every crew member had two lives. Maccus was one of the most trusted members of the crew, and seemed to share Jones' penchant for causing pain and destruction. After three days had passed he executed all of the crew members except two. Jim Busoon, Maccus’s father’s murderer’s father, and Clubba. He slit Clubba’s throat and threw Jim into the ocean with a cannon tied to his foot. When Jones ordered his crew to summon the Kraken to destroy the Black Pearl, Maccus gave the command with an evil, leering smile. One day a man washed ashore named Jake Busoon. He told Maccus that his father had killed Maccus’s father. Jake said that his father was one of the men Maccus had killed in the jail. Jake told him that his father survived and ran away. Maccus got mad and locked him in a brig. He was also an expert swordsman, as evidenced during the fight for the Dead Man's Chest on Isla Cruces. Here, Maccus and Tayler battled the trio of Elizabeth Swann, Pintel and Ragetti, fighting them into a corner before they were rescued by William Turner and James Norrington. His main weapon of choice was a single-handed sword. After he fought on Isla Cruces, he came back and shot Jake in the stomach. After Maccus got on the bow, he saw Jake and his father swimming away. Maccus continued to serve on the Dutchman during the reign of Lord Cutler Beckett. During the battle between the Black Pearl and the Flying Dutchman in the maelstrom, Maccus attempted to kill William Turner, but was in turn attacked by Jack the monkey. The monkey threw Maccus overboard. Maccus landed on a cannon door. He climbed back up and saw Jake still alive and attacking Tayler. He shot a net with five barrels in the net. The barrels all landed on Jake. Barley alive he gave his last words to Tayler, “If you don’t kill me, your idiotic friend will kill me.” Maccus appeared and stabbed him in the heart. While he was dying he asked him if he still was an idiot. Jake’s dad, Jim came aboard and saw his son’s dead body on the floor. He charged at Tayler, throwing his sword into her chest. Maccus saw what had just happened and he shot Jim in the hand. He turned into a sort of dog-like creature. Maccus shot himself in the hand and he turned back into a human and all of his scars and bruised were gone. He shot Tayler’s dead hand and she came back to life. He stabbed Jim in the chest and threw him into the maelstrom. Palifico then came into the room and threw his sword into Tayler’s stomach. The sword was now sticking out of her back. She toppled over dead. He kept on shooting her in the hand but nothing happened. Palifico reminded him that the healing only worked once. Maccus kneed Palifico in the head, making his sword fly up in the sky and shoved the sword of Palifico into Palifico’s chest and watched as he toppled over into the maelstrom. Davy Jones was later killed and the curse of the crew was lifted. James got in a man boat and sailed back to his home.
