Biography
"You brought us here for nothing!" "I won't take questionin' nor second guesses, not from the likes of you, Master Twigg!"

- Twigg and Hector Barbossa

Twigg was recruited along with many other crewers by Jack Sparrow prior to the quest to find Isla de Muerta. Twigg participated in the mutiny led by Sparrow's First Mate, Barbossa, that led to Jack being marooned on a desert island. Now-Captain Barbossa led the crew to the island, where they discovered and stole the treasure of Hernán Cortés, thereby bringing down a curse upon themselves. Twigg became undead, and joined the rest of the skeletal crew in tracking down all 882 pieces of treasure in order to lift the curse.



Twigg participated in the attack on Port Royal, laying siege to the Port Royal Prison with his companion, Koehler. while searching for the armory, they encountered Jack Sparrow, and inadvertantly revealed to him the nature of their curse. Twigg and Koehler returned to the Black Pearl as it set sail for Isla de Muerta with Elizabeth Swann as the crew's captive. When Swann's blood proved unable to lift the curse, Twigg was the first to voice doubts about Barbossa's leadership, though joined the crew in searching for Swann and the missing medallion when William Turner launched his rescue attempt.

Barbossa's crew pursued Swann and Turner, aboard the HMS Interceptor, whereupon Barbossa ordered Twigg and Koehler to run a powder magazine over to the enemy ship. They rigged the vessel to explode after its crew were brought aboard the Pearl, and subsequently returned to Isla de Muerta for the sacrifice of Will Turner. However, the HMS Dauntless arrived in time to distract the pirates, who launched an assault on the Royal Navy troops. Twigg and Koehler engaged the marines in single combat, though were overcome when the curse was lifted by Turner and Sparrow. Koehler was killed by James Norrington, and Twigg was placed under arrest along with the rest of the survivors.

Twigg was presumably hanged at Port Royal for his crimes, though it was known that at least two crew members, Pintel and Ragetti, escaped this fate.
