Carpaccio

“Look, buddy! When you got a mind like a steel trap like mine... Plus the coldest heart in the biz... And fan-freakin'-tastic hair like this... Then maybe we'll talk more. Until then, you're wastin' my time.”

—Carpaccio, Wario: Master of Disguise

Carpaccio is a rival to Wario who appeared as one of the two secondary antagonists in Wario: Master of Disguise. Carpaccio is a thief who, like Wario and Count Cannoli, is after the legendary Wishstone. He comes from a wealthy family and owns a company that produces various weapons. Carpaccio also has a global company called Sigil Securities. He shares his name with the carpaccio, an Italian raw meat dish typically served as an appetizer.

In Episode 4, "A Third Thief Brings Grief", he challenges Wario to a battle in his superpowered form, Head Honcho Carpaccio, but is defeated by Wario. Later, he forms an alliance with Count Cannoli to stop Wario, but this too fails. Finally, in Episode 9, "More Shocking than the Next Episode?!", he challenges Wario to a rigged footrace, which Wario also wins.

Carpaccio then flees to Allergia Gardens to retrieve the final piece of Wishstone, as Wario gives chase.

In special Episode 3, Carpaccio issues a challenge to Wario and Cannoli to find parts to a new machine, saying whoever does so can keep the machine.

Carpaccio was actually trying to prevent Terrormisu, the demon sealed within the Wishstone, from being released. Wario pieced the stone back together, and she arrived, planning to devour the souls of the world. Before Wario defeated her, Count Cannoli and Carpaccio managed to escape unharmed.

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.
