Peppino is a portly Italian chef wearing a black t-shirt, black pants, a white tank top, and a chef's hat. He also has black hair and a small mustache under his long nose. He shows signs of both anger and anxiety, frequently shifting between the two. He is only shown to be happy when he accomplishes something, for example, when Peppino collects a key or treasure, and during the True Ending. Despite his rough emotional state and portly figure, he is shown to be rather strong, as he can pick up.
