Pit (Kid Icarus)
Pit (ピット Pitto?), earlier called Kid Icarus, is a fictional character and the protagonist of the Kid Icarus series, first appearing in Kid Icarus for the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1986 and later appearing in Kid Icarus: Of Myths and Monsters for the Game Boy in 1991. Pit is the protagonist of the 2012 video game Kid Icarus: Uprising, with director Masahiro Sakurai claiming that Pit would feel like a brand new character for Uprising, with various new weapons and abilities. Pit has appeared in various media, as well as making various cameo appearances in other Nintendo games. He appeared as one of the playable fighters in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, as well as one of the recurring characters in Captain N: The Game Master cartoon series, though in the latter he was known as Kid Icarus.
Pit's character takes elements from three of Nintendo's biggest franchises; he can jump like Mario, uses ability-enhancing objects like Link, and shoot enemies like Samus. IGN's Lucas M. Thomas, in a feature about Pit, commented that Pit's inspiration in Greek mythology was more prominent than Sony's God of War series and that Pit could be viewed as a combination between Eros and Icarus. Thomas noted Pit's speech, saying it could become a distinguishing difference between him and other Nintendo characters such as Link. Thomas said that both his bow and his wings were his most iconic characteristics. In addition to Eros and Icarus, Pit shares several characteristics with Perseus, the hero sent by Athena (who Palutena is thought to be based on) to slay Medusa. Pit and Palutena's designs was updated for the former's inclusion in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and was retained for Kid Icarus: Uprising.
Pit is very confident, boldly going up to fight enormous monsters many times his size. Pit's age is about 13–14 years old (in human years). Despite his sometimes stern looks, he is known to be a light-hearted boy who cracks jokes and looks on the bright side of things, which should come as no surprise since he is an angel.
Pit's weapon is the bow called "Palutena's Bow" (パルテナの神弓 Parutena no Kamiyumi?) that he got from Palutena. It fires "arrows of light". Palutena gave Pit the bow so he could defeat Medusa (メデューサ Medyūsa?), the Goddess of Darkness (闇の女神 Yami no Megami?). The Palutena Bow can split into two short swords that Pit holds, one in each hand. Another weapon he uses is the "First Blade" he uses in Kid Icarus: Uprsing in the first chapter "Return of Palutena" as the first weapon he uses, after that your choice of weapon is unlimited.
