Darwin the Pirate[1] is a Pirates minifigure introduced in 1989.
Description[]
Darwin wears a red-and-white striped sleeveless shirt, grey pants, and a blue bandanna. His face is printed with black hair, a large mustache, and stubble. This gives him a similar appearance to many other pirates from the theme, including the pirate/sailor and Lolbroek.
Background[]
Darwin the Pirate is an accident-prone member of Captain Redbeard's crew aboard the Black Seas Barracuda. Despite his clumsiness, he always emerges unscathed. Due to heat stroke and too much "pirate juice", his competency as a sailor is always lacking.[1]
Despite his loyalties to Redbeard, Darwin also worked alongside Captain Ironhook, with the two pirates sailing a rowboat together in an effort to plunder the treasures of Enchanted Island.
In LEGO Legacy: Heroes Unboxed, Darwin is an Explorer attacker with the abilities "Clumsy Cutlass", "Hit the Deck", and "Grog Walk". In the Piptown United campaign, Darwin holds a grudge against Pirate Princess Argenta, since she cheated him out of gold and left a hole in his boat, and therefore he initially refuses to take Paramedic Poppy and Hedley the Headsman to Captain Redbeard.

A clumsy attacker who's hard to pin down. He's actually a fairly competent sailor when he's not swaying on his feet from a combination of heat stroke and too much "pirate juice"... which is to say "never." Trivia Arrty-Nine Lost arrt Sea No Quarrtarr! |

Notes[]
- Darwin the Pirate's minifigure is frequently assumed by fans to represent Flashfork, who is similarly portrayed in 6255 Pirate Comic and other Pirates media as having a mustache and wearing a blue bandana, striped shirt, and grey pants. However, Flashfork's shirt is meant to be red-and-blue striped instead of red-and-white, and there has yet to be any known official media canonically identifying this minifigure as Flashfork.
