Pizza

"Hey HEY! You, my friend, are in the right place at EXACTLY the right time! Why, you ask? Well, listen to this! If you give me a sugarstar, I'll create a Warp Point for you right here! Once I got this Warp Point set up for you, you'll be able to warp here any time you like. So, what do you say? Do we have a deal?"

- Pizza's introduction in Magical Starsign

Pizza the Warp Dude, also known as Mr. Warp Shop Pizza, is a recurring character in the Magical Vacation series. He is a peculiar man hailing from 4th Dimensional space. In Magical Vacation and Magical Starsign, he helps the party by registering Warp Points on the world map.

Personality
Pizza is very charming and upbeat, speaking as though he were a stage magician. In Japanese, he uses odd transliterations of English words, some examples being ミ～ Mi~ (Me) はろぉ～ Haroo~ (Hello), and シ～ユ～ Shi~yu~ (See you).

Appearance
Pizza is a stout teal-skinned humanoid with red eyes and pink lips. He dons a big blue hat, a red robe, and brown shoes. He also carries a cane in his right hand.

Gameplay
By interacting with Pizza's blue hat on the ground, he pops up and fines the player to register a Warp Point. In Magical Vacation, he asks for five pinecones, whereas in Magical Starsign, he wants one sugarstar. Tapping Warp Points on the world map instantly teleports the party near his hat.

Early life
It is said that Pizza once lived in the 4th Dimension, but moved to the common dimension after becoming enamored by pinecones and opened his warp shop. He started using his powers of omnipresence to help people fast travel across the universe, asking for pinecones as payment.

Magical Vacation
While the protagonist and Pistachio were exploring Mimolette Forest in the Light Realm, they encountered Pizza outside Forest Cave. He gave them a map of light and taught them how to use Warp Points to make traveling easier. The party would meet with Pizza several more times on their journeys in the Light, Dark, and Abyssal Realms.

Magical Starsign
After the protagonist and Lassi escaped Gumbo Gaol on Erd, they spotted Pizza in the Forgotten Land. He told them how to warp using the world map, and met with their other classmates in many places throughout the Baklava solar system.
