Jake (Pirate)

Jake is a young pirate boy who is under the wings of Peter Pan and serves as the main protagonist of the Disney Junior series Jake and the Never Land Pirates, voiced by Collin Ford.

Personality
Jake is a young pirate who was given the task to protect Never Land while Peter Pan left the island to explore the outside world. Before Peter left Jake was given a wooden sword made from a special tree in Never Land with special abilities so he can be a good leader.

Jake is a natural born leader, handsome, fearless, caring, and daring who cares very much for his crew and ship and is easily annoyed by Captain Hook's schemes. Jake treats Cubby much like a little brother and Izzy like a sister more than a pirate crew. Jake's closet friend and sidekick is his parrot Skully.

Jake's mermaid friend, Marina is said to have feelings for him as well. In the episode Jake's Starfish Search, Captain Hook kidnaps Marina's pet starfish and unlike most of the other times Hook's nabbed certain things, Jake seemed more worried than angry like usual most likely due to their feelings for one another. He seemed disappointed and worried when he invited Marina to a dance party but realized he doesn't know how to dance, believing he'll embarrass himself.

Jake and the Never Land Pirates
In the show Jake constantly challenges Captain Hook and his crew as they commonly steal Jake, Izzy and Cubby's treasure. Along the way to get Captain Hook, the pirates collect gold doubloons which act as rewards for completing a task, which are called "pirate problems". At the end each episode, Jake and his crew gather up all of their gold doubloons and store them in their team treasure chest.

Disney Parks
Jake made his Disney Parks debut at Disney's Hollywood Studios during a Disney Junior party as part of a social mom bloggers event along with character meet and greets, and is scheduled to make regular meet and greets at Disney's Hollywood Studios beginning November 13, 2011 as he is currently the most requested character at Walt Disney World. Beginning a week later, on November 20, Jake will be on hand to meet and greet fans at Disney California Adventure at the Disneyland Resort. Jake will also be joining the ‘Play ‘n Dine’ character meal at Hollywood and Vine. It is rumored that Jake will be aboard the Disney Fantasy cruise ship when it sets sail in 2012.

Jake attended the 2011 D23 Expo where he, Captain Hook and Smee held a meet and greet with fans, and appeared with Sharky and Bones at a Los Angeles Dodgers baseball game. Recently, Jake joined Madison Pettis, who voices Izzy, at the recently renamed Shane Victorino Nicetown Boys and Girls Club in Philadelphia (along with over 200 volunteers) to help build a new playground in conjunction with the KaBOOM! Foundation.

Disney Junior Live
Jake appears as a puppet in the live musical stage show at Disney California Adventure and Disney's Hollywood Studios. During Jake's segment Captain Hook steals their treasure chest where they keep their gold dabloons and pretends to be Tick Tock the Crocodile to scare Hook off.
