Sea Hawk is a fictional character in the 1985 animated television series She-Ra: Princess of Power.
Character information[]
Sea Hawk is a pirate with no magical abilities; his skills, developed due to the influence of his father, the Falcon, are the product of hard work.
Twenty years before Sea Hawk joined the Great Rebellion, the Falcon disappeared without a trace. Although his father had instilled him with good morals, Sea Hawk spent many years as a pirate, plundering the seas of Etheria. He later aided The Horde by delivering supplies, though he eventually revealed that he only did for the sum of money The Horde paid him. Underneath all of this, it is established that Sea Hawk is a good man. When he meets Princess Adora shortly after her own defection from The Horde, she shows him that what he is doing is wrong and he joins The Rebellion in their fight against The Horde.
Sea Hawk the Pirate[]
Sea Hawk owns and commands a solar-powered flying ship called the Solar Sailor. His right hand is Swen, the Solar Sailor pilot. His main weakness is that he is obsessed with all things valuable, especially gold. However, he later realizes that freedom is far more important than material items.
Sea Hawk and The Rebellion[]
Sea Hawk joins The Rebellion when he is shown that what he has been doing is wrong. Soon after he joins, his past comes back to haunt him. Sea Hawk is attacked by Admiral Scurvy, his ship destroyed. As the ship breaks up, he is thrown into the sea and is washed up on a desert island. It is on this island that he discovers that his father, the Falcon, has been living, kept alive by the island's magical air. The Falcon is too weak to join his son in the fight against The Horde, but gives him several new weapons, Seven League Boots, an Impact Ring and a photon cutlass. Sea Hawk becomes smitten with the rebel leader, Adora, and they shared kisses a couple of times. He had previously been given a locket by a sea witch. He gives half of the locket to Adora, and keeps the other. With its magic they can each ensure that the other is safe.[1]
Powers and abilities[]
Sea Hawk has no magical powers. Being a pirate, he is a skilled sailor and swordsman, and he possesses some formidable weapons and equipment given to him by his father. He formerly used a Laser Rapier as his primary weapon, as did many of his pirates. After being defeated by his father, he was given his father's weapon to use, a Photon Cutlass.
