'''Carpaccio''' is one of the two secondary antagonists in ''[[Wario: Master of Disguise]]'' and a rival to [[Wario]]. He has a tendency to constantly flip his hair while standing still. Carpaccio is a thief who comes from a wealthy family and owns a global weapons company called [[Sigil Securities]]; like Wario and [[Count Cannoli]], Carpaccio also seeks the legendary [[Wishstone]]. His name is derived from the {{wp|carpaccio}}, an Italian raw meat dish typically served as an appetizer.

==Story==
Carpaccio first meets Wario in [[Sneezemore Cave]]. Wario chastises Carpaccio for robbing the [[Smithsnorian Museum]] before he could, but Carpaccio scoffs at his protests, claiming that results are what "separates the winners from the whiners." He then blocks off the path to him with four stone doors, forcing Wario to search the cave for four [[Crystal (Wario: Master of Disguise)|crystals]] to open them. Once Wario confronts him again, he fuses with four [[Sir Lance-A-Lot]]s to become [[Head Honcho Carpaccio]]. However, Wario defeats him, and he surrenders his Wishstone piece. Later, he forms an alliance with Count Cannoli to stop Wario, installing the [[Barfatronic Lavachomper]] in [[Sweatmore Peak]] to make his journey through the volcano more difficult, but this also fails. Once Wario confronts Carpaccio again in [[Carpaccio's Lab|his lab]], Carpaccio calls off his alliance with Cannoli and challenges Wario to a rigged footrace for the second-to-last Wishstone piece. When Wario wins, Carpaccio flees to [[Allergia Gardens]] in an attempt to protect the final Wishstone piece. He steals the [[Crimson Diamond]] in an attempt to stop Wario from reaching the Wishstone piece, but Wario retrieves it and makes it back to the Wishstone piece before Carpaccio.

When the Wishstone is reassembled, it is revealed that it was actually a seal that had restrained [[Terrormisu]], a soul-devouring demon, for ages, and that Carpaccio was attempting to stop the Wishstone from being reassembled for this reason. Terrormisu emerges from the Wishstone and strikes Carpaccio with lightning as he tries to explain everything to Wario. Terrormisu then reveals that the Carpaccio and Cannoli families had spent centuries trying to prevent the tablets from being reassembled; as she prepared to begin devouring souls, Count Cannoli swoops in and rescues Carpaccio, leaving Wario to fight and eventually defeat Terrormisu.

In [[Special Episode Part 3]], Carpaccio challenges to Wario and Cannoli to find parts for a new machine, with the machine itself being the prize for whoever succeeds.

==Personality==
Carpaccio appears to care a lot about his looks as he is often seen stroking his own hair during cutscenes. He is also very arrogant, looking down and disrespecting those who he deems as inferior like Wario or Cannoli. He displays his disrespect by throwing sarcastic lines at his interlocutor like asking Wario if he had ever heard of a shower making fun of his poor hygiene or calling Count Cannoli as an ally less than useful. But he really does not approve of disrespect towards himself as illustrated in the fourth episode when Wario says openly to Carpaccio that he does not care about who he is or what kind of company he is running, Carpaccio's initial reaction is by trying to destroy Wario after disrespecting the president of Sigile Securites as well as his company.

That being said he is capable of admitting defeat and acknowledges when he underestimated his enemies such as Wario and tries not to repeat the same mistake. He also seems to be quite intelligent as illustrated by the fact that he managed to develop a technology that allows him to transform into Head Honch Carpaccio. Another display of his intellect is the fact that he does not rely on brute force to take down Wario but instead takes a more strategic approach by spying on Wario to figure out his weaknesses so Carpaccio can develop a plan to eliminate him without using brute force.

==In-game description==
''A brilliant, pompous chemist, and the current president of Sigil Securities. He lives to find the Wishstone, but also enjoys fine suits from the best tailors in the land.''
