Geppetto is an elderly Italian woodcarver and the creator of [[Pinocchio]]. After he made a wish to have Pinocchio turned into a real boy, the Blue Fairy made his wish come true because he had given countless joy to many people.
After Sora defeats [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness|Ansem]], Geppetto is overjoyed when Pinocchio becomes a real boy.


As a person, he is extremely kind and is very fascinated with gummi blocks that could be used to travel to other worlds.
===''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories''===
During Sora's quest in [[Castle Oblivion]], he encounters a memory-based version of Geppetto within a version of Monstro that is also a figment of his memory. The false Geppetto tells Sora and friends how he came to be swallowed by Monstro; he claims that as long as he and Pinocchio are together, he does not mind where he is. When Sora, Donald, and Goofy notice Pinocchio has gone missing, Geppetto states the puppet is probably off exploring. Sora and the others go off to find Pinocchio; they rescue him from the Parasite Cage and learn that Pinocchio is trying to find a way to escape from Monstro with his father. Sora eventually manages to make Monstro sneeze; this frees both Pinocchio and Geppetto.


When the Heartless came and destroyed his world, he somehow escaped and has been traveling to many worlds to find Pinocchio.
===''Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance''===
====Side: Riku====
In the dreams of [[Prankster's Paradise]], Geppetto has once again been swallowed by Monstro. He meets Riku and tells the boy how sorry he is to see that Monstro swallowed him, as well. Geppetto reveals that Pinocchio has gone missing; he is delighted when Riku offers to find Pinocchio for him.


===Monstro===
Following the defeat of the [[Char Clawbster]], Geppetto is reunited with Pinocchio. He happily embraces the puppet as Riku looks on.
He is first met in the bowels of [[Monstro]], standing on his wooden 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.


===Residents in Traverse Town===
==Design==
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 [[List of Gummi Ship Blueprints (Kingdom Hearts)|blueprints]] for [[Gummi Ship]]s and gives them to Sora for free, so that Sora can use them in the war against [[Maleficent]] and the [[Heartless]].
Geppetto is an old man with black eyebrows, thick, white hair, and a white mustache. His eyes are blue, and he wears frameless, rectangular spectacles. Geppetto's nose is large and round, and his ears are slightly pointed. He wears a light lilac-colored shirt with baggy sleeves under a red-violet vest. Geppetto also wears a belt around his abdomen that is red-violet with gold lining and decorated with gold crosses. Black breeches cover Geppetto's legs; the old man also wears knee-high, grey socks and brown shoes with gold buckles.


In the credits of the first Kingdom Hearts game, he is last seen laughing with Pinocchio after he truly becomes a boy.
==Personality==
Geppetto is a kindly old man whom the Blue Fairy knows delights in bringing happiness and joy to others without any thought of reward. When Pinocchio is given the gift of life, Geppetto immediately decides to raise the talking puppet as his own son and does anything he can to keep him safe. Geppetto also has a great deal of patience, for he does not lose his temper with Pinocchio despite the mischief the puppet gets into. When Sora, Donald, and Goofy rescue Geppetto, the old man returns the favor on a larger scale by providing him with the [[Wishing Star]] Keyblade, as well as various Gummi Ship blueprints.


==Origin==
Though Geppetto's origin dates back to 1881 in Carlo Collodi's novel, ''The Adventures of Pinocchio'', this incarnation of the character made his debut appearance in the 1940 adaptation, ''Pinocchio''. In the film, he carves Pinocchio out of pine and later makes a wish for the puppet to become a real boy for him to love like the son he never had. Due to his kind heart and love for bringing joy to children, the [[Blue Fairy]] grants his wish partially. Unfortunately, Geppetto leaves Pinocchio to go to school the next day, unaware that his conscience, Jiminy, has overslept, which leads to Pinocchio's various escapades. Eventually, Geppetto goes out to search for Pinocchio, and eventually learns that he is on the dreaded Pleasure Island. Geppetto ventures out to see to rescue Pinocchio from the cursed island, but he is intercepted and eaten by Monstro the whale. Fate reunites him with Pinocchio, and they work together to escape from Monstro by making him sneeze. A terrible chase ensues on the ocean surface, with Geppetto almost drowning due to his age, but Pinocchio manages to rescue his father, although at the cost of his own life. Emotionally broken, Geppetto takes his lifeless son back home and grieves for him, but the Blue Fairy appears once again and turns Pinocchio into a human boy, at the same time reviving him. Geppetto takes his son in his arms and celebrates the night away.
