Captain Jack Penguin

There are many rumors about Jack's past but it is likely he was born in Club Penguin itself. He was never educated and seemed to have no future. He despised all authority and made an enemy of the PSA very quickly (there was no EPF back then.) It is believed he attempted a coin robbery at a young age. Unfortunately he was caught; he then fled and broke another law by stealing the Hydro Hopper Boat.

He soon learned that on open sea he could easily rob penguins in other small boats. Later in life he realized that he wanted to be more than a small time pirate thief, so he built the 'Privateer.' The ship was one of the biggest ships at the time, rivaled only by the ‘Migrator’, which drew Jack's attention to Rockhopper. He became obsessed with becoming a greater pirate than him and would sometimes even open fire on him.

Later, at pirate cove, Jack noticed a shadow hiding at the back of the room. It was an ex-ninja (called Solitare) of whom he recruited for his crew.

One day, after a very dark and cold winter. Jack claimed that a penguin mermaid came to him in his dream. She told him how to defeat Rockhopper. The mermaid story is most likely not true but Jack did eventually work out how to defeat Rockhopper (At least for a while)

What he did was, with the help of the ex-ninja, de-fused the light bulb on top of the lighthouse. Jack decided if Rockhopper couldn't find Club Penguin then he would be defeated, because Club Penguin has always been there for Rockhopper.

Of course the penguins of Club Penguin eventually did repair the Lighthouse and soon Rockhopper was back. Jack has kidnapped Rockhopper many times, but has only been captured once himself. This was in 1974, the CNIC had started a whole new disguise ship, which could not be seen through a telescope only by an eye. By the time Jack saw the CNIC ship it was too late.

He soon escaped though and still threatens sailors and am drills, but his quest to defeat Rockhopper is all he cares about now. His crew just comes along for the ride (and treasure).

Involvement
Captain Jack Penguin is a well-known Pirate. He is less popular than Rockhopper as he only sells his cargo to other criminals and steals from all who he meets on the sea. He is well known among agents in the EPF and agents in the former PSA ranked him as Public Enemy number #2. He was only beaten by Herbert P. Bear. Agents rarely receive missions concerning him though as he is out of their jurisdiction. The CNIC do, however, make it one of their sole duties to capture and arrest Jack. He is their Public Enemy Number One. His only real friend is his black puffle, Fire. Fire received his name as every time Jack said 'FIRE' Fire would swallow an O-Berry, ignite, and then fly across all the cannons while lighting them all so they would all fire at once.

Unlike Rockhopper, Jack does accept other crew members. One of his well-known crew members was Dustin Farlight. An ex-ninja who was banished never to walk amongst decent penguins again by the sensei. It is unknown exactly what he did to deserve such a fate, as Jack never asks.

His crew is extremely loyal and will follow him anywhere he goes. The ship battle during the Island Adventure 2010 was a reenactment of a famous battle between jack's crew and a crew of a CNIC ship. He is obsessed with his hat and has vowed never to lose it. Once, in a battle, CNIC sailor scratched it slightly. Jack then did every thing he could to get revenge for his hat. His hat's name is Jasmine.

Fire
As mentioned above, Fire received his name because every time Jack would yell "FIRE!” the puffle would ignite himself then light all the snowball cannons at once. Fire was discovered in the Hydro Hopper boat Jack stole. He found him hiding in the box of snacks the three penguins that drove the boat had.

Jack named him only when he had built his ship the "Privateer" as before then there was no cannons on the Hydro Hopper boat so, (as ship captain very often name puffles to the word the respond to) Fire had never heard the word "fire" and re-act in the way he famously does.

He cannot speak penguin, but he seems different from normal puffles. For one he has an eye patch and he also seems obsessed with Yarr as Jack is with Rockhopper. Yarr has noticed Fire (unlike Rockhopper with Jack) and they frequently have one on one battles.

Like the black elite puffle, Fire can also wield, this helps in fixing the ships during battles with Larry (Chief of repairs on the 'Privateer'). His background before meeting Jack is completely unknown, even where he comes from is unknown as his eye patch was not one from Club Penguin even though he was found in a Club Penguin Hydro-Hopper boat. The biggest mystery about Fire is what happened to his eye.

The Privateer
Built by Jack after a few years of being a small time Pirate in a Hydro-Hopper boat. It is read with a large tub of cream soda just below the crow’s nest. He has also filled a treasure chest with cream soda as it his (and most other pirate's) favorite drink.

His cannons must be loaded by throwing snowballs into the buckets above them, but can also be loaded by lighting the wick at the end of the cannon but only Fire has been known to do this. Below deck is three other cannons and where the crew (except Solitare, the ex-ninja who sleeps up on the crows nest.) sleeps. A few hammocks are set up; this room is very smelly and also has a large table set up in the middle. This is where they eat. In the next room is the Captain Quarters, Unlike Rockhopper Quarters, Jacks looks a little like Herbert’s lair with plans spread out around the room. He keep a scale model of the Migrator next to his bad with a tiny Rockhopper holding an even tinnier Yarr. He uses this a snowball target when he is bored.

Jack did not build it alone; he offered Rory 10,000 Club Penguin coins to help him but Rory turned it down saying that he would never help scum like Jack. Larry was working for Rory at the time and couldn't resist such an offer. He helped build the ship and taught Fire how to weld. Afterwards Jack hired him as Chief of repairs on the Privateer making Larry the very first crew member (discounting Fire).

The Privateer was once one of the biggest ships to roam the Antarctic sea (as mentioned before) only to be equaled by the Migrator, which was built shortly before.

Apparently he named it the Privateer because in very small print at the bottom of Fire's Eye patch it say's "The Privateer."

Jasmine
Jasmine is Jack's prized hat, which he never takes off (not even when he is sleeping. There is no other hat like it as Jack made it himself although he claims otherwise. He made an oath to Jasmine never to lose her and vows revenge on anyone who causes damage to her.

It is completely unknown where he got the name from (He claims the hat told him it's name) but Jasmine must have been some sort of Penguin who was a mentor of some sort, or a family member. Either that or he picked the name from no where.

For the record

Trivia
em is never named. To Rockhopper Jack is just another enemy Pirate Caiptain.
 * Dan Beronews hates him because he deleted Dan's prized ship, the 'Master of the Sea'
 * He is obsessed with his prized hat, almost as much as the Vase and Stamm
 * He has a very loyal crew
 * Willy the Penguin has often tried to join his crew, but has been turned down on several occasions.
 * Despite his constant attempts to out-do Rockhopper, Rockhopper himself has barely heard of Jack. This is because that when Jack's plans that actually work the penguin that caused them is never named. To Rockhopper Jack is just another enemy Pirate Captain.
