Personality and traits:
Confident and persuasive, ruthless and cunning, Hector Barbossa combines experience with almost reckless daring. Barbossa was grim and rough-edged, to say the least, but he had a knack for dry humor. He was also very inspiring when it came to pep-talking his mates and was never short some wise advice. At his worst he was cruel, wily, manipulative, and bloodthirsty. He could be merciless and often turned agreements to his own favor, but nevertheless he stated that he had a merciful nature and sense of fair play, though this was possibly only an example of his morbid sense of humour. He was not completely without honor, however; he claimed to be a man of his word, and defied the Pirate King when told not to free Calypso, in order to fulfill his promise of freeing her. He considered himself a gentleman of the seas and possessed a certain eloquence which he frequently used to his advantage. Being a vain person, Barbossa liked to wear fine clothes and enjoyed setting himself in scene and holding powerful speeches, for example in the cave at Isla de Muerta or on the Brethren Court. Like many other pirates he considered the Pirate Code to be "more guidelines than actual rules", but nevertheless he respected the right of Parley and preferred interpreting the Code in his own favor instead of breaking it openly. Barbossa had an apparent fearlessness, which could be interpreted by some as suicidal insanity—much to the dismay of his crew, he did not hesitate to sail right over the waterfalls at World's End, nor did he show much concern for sailing the Black Pearl straight into the massive maelstrom created by the enraged goddess Calypso and took part in the battle at the center of it.

Equipment:
Barbossa wore fine clothing befitting a man of his stature and status, and he carried many valuable items about his person.
His suit consisted of dark brown, full breeches, a brown, double-breasted waistcoat elaborately ornamented by a pattern and a grey coat with black cuffs, black liner and thin black brims around the buttonholes, fitted with buttons made from melted down Inca silver stolen from Spanish ships.
He also wore brown leather swash boots and a faded light-green bandanna. At the end of his time as the Cursed Crew's captain his shirt was dirty and grey, but after his resurrection he wore a shining white one. An orange with yellow sash worn under a leather belt with a patinated bronze buckle and a leather baldric with a big, frame-shaped silver buckle, a smaller silver loop and a silver cover at the end, all three elaborately ornamented, complete his outfit. On his left hand he wore a black leather gauntlet, presumably in order to protect the hand. He was rarely seen without his big, round, dark hat which is decorated with blue ostrich feathers as a show of vanity.
At the point after becoming a privateer for England, Barbossa abandoned his pirate regalia and wore instead a Naval officer's black and gold bicorne, along with a set of fine clothes, including a white cravat, blue privateer's waistcoat with gold trimmings, white gloves and a dark blue coat with gold trimmings and crimson cuffs. While his clothing changed, Barbossa still wore his hair long and scraggly, along with his signature moustache and beard, unless he wore his powdered wig in the presence of higher-class persons. After losing his leg, Barbossa began sporting a peg leg in place of his right shin and foot, which contains a rum supply and a cup. He also used a wooden crutch fashioned for him by an admiralty carpenter. This crutch was used both for balance and for combat as shown during his fierce duel with Blackbeard.
The jewelry he wore consisted of a silver ring, which bore the image of a lion's head, plundered from a Venetian ship and signifying Barbossa's status as leader of his pirates on his right ring finger, a silver snake pendant on a 26-inch long metal chain which features four white crystals set in a square around a much larger shining red stone at the centre of the piece. And a silver earring with an attached fang of an unknown big carnivore in his right ear. It is unknown whether the last two items have any symbolic meaning.
Hector Barbossa carried a broadsword and a flintlock pistol. He won his elegantly engraved pistol in a duel against a Spanish pirate - a foolish opponent who lost his life - and allowed him to kill his enemies in the way of a gentleman. After the loss of his leg and commission as a privateer, Barbossa switched out both in favour of his new weapons: a rapier-esque sword with a lethally-poisoned blade and an elegant flintlock with a handle of polished walnut with gold livery. Though he kept the pistol upon his return to piracy, the sword was left at the Fountain in lieu of his mighty new blade, the legendary Sword of Triton.

Skills:
He was a master seaman, who had excellent navigational abilities, a strategist who could plan ahead and outwit his opponents and an able yet brutal and unforgiving leader as evidenced when he shot Pintel in the heart in order to see if the curse has been lifted. These abilities not only gave him many advantages in his pirate life but also earned much respect both among his subordinates as well as among his enemies; these skills, combined with his exceptional fighting abilities, were in fact the reason why Barbossa managed to survive a life of piracy for several decades and contributed to his reputation and his high-ranked position during this time. Barbossa rose through the ranks, and through treachery and cruelty he swiftly became captain; the mutiny he led robbed Captain Jack Sparrow of his beloved ship the Black Pearl.
Barbossa had a controlled and defensive style of combat; he normally attempted to win through building his forces up to something big without allowing himself to be torn back down. Therefore, when he participated in a battle he preferred not to fight on the front but to stay behind the fight and command his subordinates from a safe position. However when he was forced into a duel, he was a deadly enemy. Barbossa was a skilled swordsman, hinting at a lifetime of experience, where he just had a sword on his belt and learned how to skewer people and survive. Only a few people could match his swordsmanship. Barbossa proved capable of holding his own against numerous enemies at once and also fatally injured the legendary pirate Blackbeard, although it should be noted that Blackbeard was distracted when Barbossa iniciated his final strike, cutting him on the hand when looking at his back and then stabbing him in the chest when he turned around afterward. Before challenging the legendary pirate, Barbossa poisoned his sword, saying he wasn't foolish enough to fight Blackbeard without a "venomous advantage". During his duel with Blackbeard, Barbossa was hindered by the loss of his right leg and lost his balance a few times but still managed to fight his opponent as an equal and might have defeated him in a fair fight if not for his lost leg. He also used his crutch as a weapon in battle, weilding it along with his sword against Blackbeard. The two cutlasses on his flag possibly signifies these swordsman abilities. It is likely that he did not receive training at a finishing school, but instead learned through brawls since his teenage years, therefore his fighting style was quite dirty, however he had an extensive knowledge of killing manoeuvres such as beheading. Barbossa used hand grenades as well on some occasions and sometimes he kicked his opponents in sensitive points like the head or the stomach area, like he did with an attacking East India Trading company Marine whom he kicked in the face.
In addition to his remarkable swordsmanship he was also an accurate and experienced marksman, so that while residing on Devil's Anvil he could give people who visited him shooting lessons.
Aside from English, which was his native language, Barbossa also fluently spoke Spanish.
