Pit: The main protagonist of the NES game, "
Kid Icarus". Born a human, he died after ingesting chlorox, became an Angel and was trapped in the underworld (i'm not making this up, people..let's all give a warm round of applause to the nintento copywriters for their *brilliant* work). Queen
Palutena, ruler of Angel Land, contacted Pit to find the 3 sacred treasures stolen by
Medussa. Eventually,(after 12 hellishly hard levels), he puts an arrow through Medusa and saves Queen Palutena.
For reference, there were 3 endings: 1) Pit grows into a man 2) Pit and Palutena kiss and 3) Pit grows large wings and leaves the underworld
Example:
Although
affected by a Surfer-cum-Latin accent (ex: like for sureikus!) in
the Captain N: The Game Master cartoon,
Pit doesn't speak in the video game.
