"Losing what you were, bit by bit, 'til you end up... end up like poor Wyvern here."

―"Bootstrap Bill" Turner to William Turner^[src]

Wyvern was a crew member serving aboard the Flying Dutchman under Captain Davy Jones.

[edit] Biography

"Open the chest with the key, and stab the heart. No-no-no-no. Don't stab the heart. The Dutchman needs a living heart, or there'll be no captain. And if there's no captain, there's no one to have the key."

―Wyvern to William Turner^[src]

So long had Wyvern spent paying off his debt to Jones, his body had, over time, slowly merged with the ship itself, until he appeared to be growing out of a wall on the lower deck.

Wyvern's body was covered with coral and barnacles, and was almost indistinguishable from the hull of the Flying Dutchman. His outstretched right arm held aloft a ship's latern, and, by the time William Turner joined the crew, Wyvern was able only to separate the front of his head from the hull.

Although Wyvern had been all but assimilated into the ship, he still retained a degree of humanity, and aided Will Turner in his quest to obtain the key to the Dead Man's Chest from Davy Jones. Wyvern offered Turner a small measure of advice before retreating back into his habitat, becoming virtually invisible against the hull. His fate is unknown, however it is likely that he was freed along with the rest of the crew when Will Turner became the Dutchman's new captain.
