− | The word "kappa," from which Kapp'n is derived, is the name for a river ''yokai'' (supernatural creature) in Japanese folklore. They are mischievous in nature and reptilian in appearance. His name also plays on how a sailor would pronounce "captain," abbreviating certain sounds so that it becomes a phonetic pronunciation. His name reflects the way he speaks; he talks like a stereotypical pirate, saying things like "yar!", "sprat," and "garr," and he will sometimes refer to the [[player]] as a [[fish]] or [[sea creatures|sea creature]], such as "[[scallop]]," "[[Sea Bass|sea bass]]," or "[[Sea Urchin|urchin]]." | + | The word "kappa," from which Kapp'n is derived, is the name for a river ''yokai'' (supernatural creature) in Japanese folklore.
