Count Cannoli
Count Cannoli (a.k.a. "The Silver Zephyr") is the main antagonist of Wario: Master of Disguise. He's a gentleman thief who stars on a TV show that Wario watches, inspiring him to jump into the show himself, and steal the Count's wand, Goodstyle. Throughout the game, Count Cannoli pursues Wario, attempting to get his wand back. Through the game he is also a rival of Carpaccio, another thief.
He has an Italian accent and shouts "Mamamia" when defeated in the second and third (against him) boss fight. Cannoli has a family, that has each his own machine. Though it's unknown if any other members of the Cannoli family are still alive, Cannoli's machine is the Mad Hat Mk. I. The Mad Hat Mk. II is probably the entire family's machine. Using his company and cutting-edge technology he made the Mad Hat Mk. III
Cannoli owns a company called International Evil Concerns Inc.
Trivia
- Count Cannoli's name most likely comes from the cannolo, an Italian dessert often called by its plural form of "cannoli" even when used in singular number.
- Wario insists on calling Count Cannoli "The Silver Heifer." A heifer is a cow.
- Count Cannoli may be a magician due to the fact that he is constantly appearing and disappearing to catch up with Wario and the fact that he wears a top hat.
- Every time Wario battles Cannoli, he says "Buongiorno" at the beginning of the battle which is Italian for "Good morning." Occasionally when he attacks, Cannoli says "bambina" which is Italian for "baby girl".
