==Characteristics==
 
The late captain was a pirate of great renown, with tales of his exploits reaching even the farthest continents. He was a properly paranoid man with such a reputation, and designed his hideout as a briney labyrinth to ward off would-be bandits. His cleverness was matched only by his greed--so great is his love for treasure that even his specter will fight to the bone to protect his booty.

While players may hear subtle mentions of the pirate throughout their quest, Captain Crow does not become involved with the story until the player learns that he tried to reach [[Empycchu]] by finding a magic sea-chart that could show the way inside the unapproachable land. He had grown too old for sea travel by the time he found the chart, however, and soon perished, becoming a ghost in order to protect the sea-chart from the unworthy.

Captain Crow can be encountered and fought in ''Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 2''. If beaten, the Rank S pirate will join the team, no scouting required. His pre-battle ability Rabble Rouser sometimes gives the party's tension a +5 boost before fighting even begins. Another added bonus is that one of the [[Mischievous mole|mischievous moles]] in the Arena will give the Hero a loyalty card on hearing of this. The loyalty card gives the player reduced prices when using the item vending machine on the [[Albatross]].
