Captain Hook Captain James Hook is a fictional character, the antagonist of J. M. Barrie's play "Peter Pan; or, the Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up" and its various adaptations, in which he is Peter Pan's archenemy. The character is a pirate captain of the brig "Jolly Roger"; Barrie identifies him as Blackbeard's former bo'sun. His two principal fears are the sight of his own blood (supposedly an unnatural colour) and the crocodile who pursues him after eating the hand cut off by Pan. An iron hook replaced his severed hand, which gave the pirate his name. After getting a taste of Hook, the crocodile pursues him relentlessly, but the ticking clock it has swallowed warns Hook of its presence.

Nicholas Llewelyn Davies Nicholas "Nico" Llewelyn Davies (24 November 1903 – 14 October 1980) was the youngest of the Llewelyn Davies boys, who were the inspiration for J. M. Barrie's Peter Pan and the Lost Boys. He was only a year old when "Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up" hit the stage in 1904, and as such was not a primary inspiration for the characters of Peter and the Lost Boys. However he was eight years old when the novel adaptation "Peter and Wendy" was published, and in later editions of the play, the character Michael Darling's middle name was changed to "Nicholas." He was the first cousin of the English writer Daphne du Maurier.
