Geppetto

Geppetto, a common nickname for Giuseppe, is an elderly Italian woodcarver and the creator (and thus "father") of Pinocchio. He is first met in the bowels of Monstro, standing on his wodden ship, which monstro had swallowed whole. It is never explained exactly how this occurred, since Monstro swims between worlds in Kingdom Hearts, and Geppetto had no way of traveling there. Nevertheless, he requests the help of Sora, Donald, and Goofy, asking them to bring back his son, Pinocchio. After the Monstro ordeal, he, like many other refugees, later moves to Traverse Town and opens up shop in the First District. At this shop he designs blueprints for Gummi Ships and often gives them to Sora for free.
