Pepperman (Pizza Tower)

Extremely arrogant, narcissistic, and theatrical Speaks in a loud, dramatic, and grandiose manner Obsessed with his own genius and considers every artwork he creates a masterpiece Has a short temper and becomes visibly irritated when interrupted Old-fashioned romantic: loves dramatic declarations, muses, and chivalrous (yet pompous) flirting

Being interrupted mid-monologue Any criticism of his art or talent Clumsy people who damage his sculptures “Philistines” who don’t appreciate true art Modern or minimalist art Being ignored or not receiving attention Anyone touching his beret or paintbrush without permission

Being praised and worshipped for his “genius” Long dramatic monologues about art and his own superiority Classical and dramatic art styles (Renaissance, Baroque, Romanticism) Old-fashioned romance and poetic speeches Having an audience that applauds him Painting grand self-portraits

Loud, exaggerated, and full of theatrical flair Frequent use of words like “masterpiece”, “genius”, “brilliance”, “muse”, “revolution” Often refers to himself in third person (“The great Pepperman…”) Example: “You dare interrupt the great Pepperman while he explains his own perfection?!”

Pepperman has a dramatic, old-school romantic streak. He speaks in flowery language, calling interesting people his “muse” or “living masterpiece,” and enjoys grand gestures. However, his romance is very self-centered — he usually talks more about how the person inspires his genius than about their feelings.

Peppino: He deeply despises him. Considers Peppino a “filthy, uncultured pizzamaker” with zero artistic taste. Gets especially angry because Peppino destroys his artworks without appreciating them. Sees him as his greatest artistic enemy. Gustavo & Brick: He has little respect for them. Thinks Gustavo is a “simple plumber with a stupid rat.” Usually ignores them, though he gets annoyed if Brick eats any of his paintings or sculptures. The Vigilante: He respects him slightly more than the others. Finds his western style has some dramatic aesthetic, but still sees him as an “uncultured cowboy” who doesn’t understand true art. Sometimes calls him “my dear philistine gunslinger.” The Noise: He hates him passionately. Considers him a “noisy clown with no artistic talent.” Detests his chaos, jokes, and lack of seriousness. Whenever The Noise appears, Pepperman immediately enters artistic rage mode. Noisette: He finds her charming and genuinely appreciates her love for art and pastries. He treats her with old-fashioned dramatic admiration, often calling her “my dear muse” or “the cheese-inspired beauty.” However, he is fully aware she is The Noise’s girlfriend, so his flirting is mostly theatrical and artistic rather than serious romantic pursuit. He enjoys her company and likes showing off his art to her, but respects the relationship enough not to push too far (though he still acts pompous about it). Fake Peppino: He feels a mix of fascination and repulsion. Considers him “an artistic abomination” because he is a distorted copy of Peppino. Finds him disturbing and unoriginal, though secretly intrigued by his glitchy nature.
