Revision as of 21:23, 5 July 2021
This is a list of the secondary characters that have been part of the Pizza Tower universe with a minor role in the story.
Noisette
"Noisette is Beyond Annoying. It takes a noisier noise than The Noise's noise to annoy The Noise."
— Toppinbot.
Noisette is The Noise's girlfriend. She mostly resembles The Noise's physical appearance, but wears a pink overall-like dress with a red undershirt and shoes of the same color. She also wears a pink mask adorned with bunny-like ears from which a couple of strands of hair protrudes.
She has only appeared in one of The Noise's taunts as well as one of the Peppino & Noise comics, but is planned to run the tower's gift shop, where players can buy alt colors, tips and tricks (such as how to do the harder moves), OST CDs (including unused tracks), and perhaps more.
Noisette was going to be disguised as a character Mr.Incognito in a conceptualized comic about Peppino and Gustavo in the desert. Mr.Incognito would antagonize them. He wears a fedora, a trench coat, gloves, and shoes.
Before PTG revealed Mr.Incognitos identity, many noted his similarities to Mr. Stick, however it was confirmed that it is not him. The reason their identity was revealed outside of the comic was because the comic was confirmed to never be finished.

Snick's Gang
Snick's Gang is a group of characters made of Snick and his friends. During Snick's development, PTG made some sprites showing what the rest of Sonic the Hedgehog's cast would look like in Snick's style. He then proceeded to make an image showing Snick having a birthday party with the characters he made, but then said the image was not canonical to the Pizza Tower lore. It is composed following members: Snick, Tail, Boots, Shadow Snick, Dr. Bad Breakfast, Aluminium Snick, Snick.exe and finally a unnamed pink porcupine with a bow.
-
Tail (made to represent Tails, Sonic's best friend and sidekick in the games).
-
Boots (made to represent Knuckles, Sonic's old friend and rival).
-
Shadow Snick (made to represent Shadow, Sonic's arch-rival). PTG said that his catchphrases are "im the coolest" and "im the greatest living thing my duderino" (the latter being a reference to Shadow's title as "the ultimate life form".)
-
Dr. Bad Breakfast (made to represent Sonic's biggest enemy, Dr. Ivo Robotnik)
-
A unnamed pink porcupine, possibly Snick's girlfriend (made to represent Amy Rose, which has Sonic as a love interest).
-

Dougie Jones
Dougie Jones is a Pizzard who first appears as Noise's assistant in the ??? Comics, and so far is his only appearance. He doesn't seem to have any design differences from any other Pizzards, but has been distinguished as his own character despite this.

John E. Cheese
John E. Cheese is a now deceased farmer Cheeseslime who formerly owned Fun Farm. He mostly resembles others of his species, with the difference that he is slightly bigger and wears a pair of circular glasses, a straw hat, and a pair of black shoes on his retractable legs.
He has been revealed to be The Vigilante's grandfather and seems to be related to lore in some way. His ghost will appear in The Wasteyard. Various pictures of him can be seen inside the barn sections of the Fun Farm. He also appears on a milk carton in the Freezer, and on a box in Kids' Party.

Pizzamancer
Note: Lore may be outdated.
Pizzamancer is a character that has only appeared in concept art of the game and mentioned by PTG as part of the lore. He looks like Pizzaface, except his nose is a tomato instead of a mushroom. He has a regular mouth, and differing from Pizzaface, Pizzamancer has limbs; white hands and feet. He also wears a Pizzard's hat and a big cape.
There isn't much information known about Pizzamancer, except that he cursed Peppino's ancestor and his whole family for disrespecting pizza. The curse was that they wouldn't be able to make pizza in peace anymore. But even with that, the ancestor still defeated him. It is also mentioned that he was the original creator of the Pizza Tower, as well as the possible original owner of the Cheese Dragon.
He died after several years when the war ended, which lead to Pizzaface to conquer the Tower afterwards, becoming its new owner. It is speculated that Pizzaface came to life thanks to Pizzamancer's powers.

Santa Clause
Santa Clause is a character that appears in the Peppino's Xmas Break demo as a one-off character.
He first appears at the beginning of the demo, where he carries Peppino off the title screen in his sleigh and flies him toward the Strongcold. He later appears in the Strongcold level in the second to last room, but once Peppino enters the room, it's revealed that it wasn't actually Santa, it was actually The Noise, who then proceeds to pull out a Noise Bomb and a boss battle commences. Santa himself doesn't appear anywhere else in the demo but his sleigh appears at the end of the demo where Peppino and his friends use it to run away from the tower before it explodes.

Peshino, also known as Animatronic Peppino is a follower in the Kids Party level, absorbing hits from the Kids Party monsters. If Peshino survives through the level, he will come to the hub world and hang out. He was originally a transformation very early in development, before being thought to be reused as a life system in the kids party level much later in development.

Trivia
- John E. Cheese's name is likely a reference to Chuck E. Cheese's, a popular pizza and arcade chain of restaurants.
- The Noise bombs outside the Jester Gnome's house may mean that there's some sort of connection between the two.
- Mr. Orange was originally planned to be a co-op character for Peppino, having old Noise's moveset and some Peppino's moves. That, however, was left as an idea.
- Mr. Orange's name is based on Mr. Green from Yo! Noid, similar to how the Noise is based on the Noid.
- Mr. Orange was originally named Kenneth, referencing the mentally ill Kenneth Lamar Noid who held a Domino's hostage after thinking they named the Noid after him. PTG quickly renamed him after learning that there was more to it than just a hostage situation, realizing the name was very insensitive of him.
- It was considered to just call him Ken, but that also got changed due to the reference still being too apparent despite the name being shortened.
- Another early name for Mr. Orange was Scott, as a reference to one of the presidents of Domino's Pizza, most infamously known for his appearance in the Hatsune Miku Domino's App promotion, however this name was quickly dropped for Mr. Orange shortly after.
