~ Pit to Medusa.
Pit is the titular main protagonist of the Kid Icarus series.
He is an angel who serves under the command of Palutena, the Goddess of Light. Despite his inability to fly and general stupidity, Pit regularly battles against— and triumphs over— numerous underworld enemies, including Medusa and Hades, through sheer determination and skill.
He and his dark counterpart, Dark Pit, are voiced by Minami Takayama in the Japanese version and Antony Del Rio in the English version, the latter who also voices Reptil in The Super Hero Squad Show and Ekko in League of Legends. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, as with Lucas, he was voiced by Lani Minella.
In the original Kid Icarus, Pit appears as a young, Putto-like angel wearing a simple, white chiton, and a pair of sandals and metal cuffs. He has short, brown hair and white wings that are incapable of flight. Starting in Of Myths and Monsters, he now possesses blue eyes and a laurel crown.
Pit was given a significant redesign by Masahiro Sakurai in Brawl, which was approved by Pit's creator and inspired by the evolution of Link's design over the years. Pit now looks to be roughly 13 years of age and stands at 5'3" (160 cm). He has large, blue eyes and fluffy, brown hair, with a small cowlick poking out from the back. His chiton is now decorated with red and gold hems along the bottom, which is fastened on the shoulder by a golden fibula with a red gem in the center. He wears the outfit with a brown belt lined with silver and a gold, triangular buckle on his waist. Pit also wears navy blue tights beneath his chiton. The angel now has a pair of bronze and gold cuffs around his forearms, and singular gold rings on his upper left arm and right thigh. His brown sandals are decorated with crossing beige bands, and are edged at the top with white wool.
Personality[]
Pit is peppy and outgoing, and has a strong sense of justice. He has no problem fighting against monsters many times his size and is quite willing to help the humans when they are in need. The angel has a notable humorous side and enjoys cracking jokes and bantering with Palutena. Pit is also very confident, which makes him bit of a show-off at times. He can, however, become a little reckless due to his gung-ho and naive personality, which causes him to get into trouble at times. Nonetheless, Pit is a good-natured and amicable character. He is described by Viridi as "insufferably upbeat" and by Dark Pit as "annoyingly cheerful." He is also shown to be moderately gullible at times, often believing Palutena's words to be true even when she is joking.
Pit has unwavering trust in Palutena, but he is shown to be somewhat anxious on his own, such as during the ascent of the Lightning Tower. Without Palutena to back him up, he steadily becomes quieter and quieter. While in Hades's body, Pit also tries to replicate Palutena's helpful dialogue as she can't contact him. He becomes very self-conscious doing this, but it helps to reassure him.
Powers and Abilities[]
Pit is a master of combat. He uses many different types of weapons, has great physical strength despite his looks, and with the power of Palutena, he can fly at intense speeds (though only for 5 minutes). He also had a weapon called the Great Sacred Treasure which he obtained and used in the final battle of Kid Icarus: Uprising. However, he no longer has it, since it was broken by Hades.
