Like most [[Nintendo]] protagonists, Pit is goodhearted, | Like most [[Nintendo]] protagonists, Pit is goodhearted and heroic. Pit possesses a strong sense of justice, and believes in protecting humanity and the heavens from those that seek their destruction. He is generally very upbeat no matter what the situation (although he can be genuinely serious when needed), which certain characters, including both foe and ally, can find it a nuisance. Pit has a notable humorous side, and he likes to frequently banter, crack jokes, make outrageous puns, and constantly break the fourth wall. He has made references to other Nintendo games such as [[mariowiki:Dr. Mario (game)|''Dr. Mario'']], [[metroidwiki:Metroid (series)|''Metroid'']], ''[[smashwiki:Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'', and [[wikipedia:Nintendogs|''Nintendogs'']]. | ||
His loyalty to Palutena is unmatched, and he always formally addresses her as "Lady Palutena". Pit even openly states the main reason he fights in the first place is because of her. Also, in many of his speeches towards the enemy, he always mentions fighting under Palutena's name. However, his absolute trust and dependence on the goddess of light has shown to be a major weakness, as Pit's courage and morale (and in some cases, his sanity) will falter if she is not present. | |||
Besides his loyalty to [[Palutena]], other notable traits of Pit are his selflessness and compassion. Pit values the lives and safety of others far more than his own, and he easily gets upset when others are hurt or killed. He speaks with great remorse upon finding out [[Gaol]] was a human and that he could have almost killed her. The angel also becomes sad over the wars the humans engage in. Not only does he show concern for humans, but for his own troops as well, as Pit would prefer not to see them get hurt. He is also the one responsible for rescuing [[Dark Pit]] from the clutches of the [[Chaos Kin]], despite knowing the [[Power of Flight]] will burn off his wings. This act nearly costed Pit's own life. Pit also grieved over the death of the [[Chariot Master]] in great guilt, believing he was responsible for the old warrior's end. Pit even displayed anger upon the death of his long-time enemy, [[Medusa]], when [[Hades]] destroyed her for her disobedience. Pit seems to see the good in most people, even in those that have committed heinous acts. Despite [[Viridi]]'s actions of trying to wipe out humanity, it is clear Pit does not necessarily view her a bad person. Pit appears to feel the same towards his dark counterpart. | |||
Although not the smartest angel around, he is shown to be quite knowledgeable with video games, particularly from other Nintendo franchises. Even Viridi was impressed by his "gaming IQ", and called him a "video game historian". Pit possesses a large appetite (which may have rubbed off from Palutena) and will eat almost anything regardless of where it comes from, but seems to have a preference for unhealthy junk food. Overall, his mind never seems to be too far from food, even during battles. He is shown to be a devout lover of [[Hot Spring|hot springs]], which Palutena (and once, Viridi) will occasionally conjure up for him. Pit strongly follows the "angel's code of conduct" to the point he even refuses to remove his clothes when entering water. However, the truth behind this is because the angel is frugal and wants to save on laundry. Pit is also very strong-willed, and appears to possess a powerful soul, as the Chariot Master claims he has a "deep reservoir of strength". Pit has a low tolerance for poor attitude, as he states to [[Pandora]]'s nonchalant behavior that he can take anything but indifference. | |||
Due to his young age, Pit is childish, gullible and naive. He is unfortunately not the brightest angel either (but he can still have his moments). Pit openly claims he never learned how to read (but this could just be a joke the writers added for humor), and has trouble understanding complex vocabulary used by Palutena. Some characters even sarcastically insult his intelligence, and his inability to detect sarcasm makes things easier for others, Ironically, Pit can sometimes make sarcastic statements himself. Pit can become oversensitive, especially when someone brings up the topic regarding his inability to fly, or when someone insults his goddess. He can even come off slightly narcissistic at times, believing he is an attractive-looking person. However, he can become insecure when being compared to someone else with better looks. According to Palutena, Pit embarrasses easily, and Pit himself admits he gets stage fright. Despite his position as captain of an army, he seems to strongly prefer working alone (with the exception of Palutena), as Pit shows reluctance whenever someone offers help, and the angel states that he doesn't need his or her assistance. Regardless of Pit's quirky and sometimes immature behavior, Palutena and the centurions view him as a respectable servant and captain. | Due to his young age, Pit is childish, gullible and naive.

Despite Pit being a flightless angel, he is still a skilled and versatile fighter. He originally started out as an archer that mainly specialized in using the bow, but over the years he has become more experienced with using various weapons like the [[Blade]], [[Claws]], [[Cannon]], and [[Staff]]. Even though Pit has a childish appearance, he seems to possess great physical strength, and is capable of utilizing massive weapons like the [[Arm]] or [[Club]]. He is commonly described to be the most powerful warrior of Palutena's Army. [[Viridi]] even comments he is destructive as "a hundred [[Reset Bomb]]s", and [[Magnus]] comments he's the only member of his own army to be able to pull his own weight. The angel has no actual magical powers of his own, he can utilize impressive abilities known as [[Powers]] which are granted by Palutena. Although Pit has access to numerous weapon classes, he has preference for bows, specifically the [[Palutena Bow]], which is also his signature weapon. | Despite Pit being a flightless angel, he is still a skilled and versatile fighter.
