Geppetto

Geppetto is an elderly Italian woodcarver and the creator 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, moves to Traverse Town with Pinocchio and opens up a shop in the First District after Leon helps him find a home. At this shop he designs blueprints for Gummi Ships and often gives them to Sora for free.

In the credits of the first Kingdom Hearts game, he is last seen laughing with Pinocchio after he truly becomes a boy.
