P-T0 MK XXXIV

**P-T0 MK XXXIV**, more commonly referred to as **Pito**, is a character in the *Devils Might Surrender* continuity of Nat19. He is an artificial intelligence created by Briar to control and maintain the Geno Angelo armor. As an NPC, he is portrayed by *Logan Laidlaw*.

## Personality

Pito shares a degree of his demeanor with its creator. He has a somewhat sarcastic and occasionally dark sense of humor. He has a great disdain for Machiavelli, as well as Mundus. So much so that he distrusts Ardyn Doyle, a distant descendant of Mundus, and often advocates for killing him despite his efforts against the forces of hell. He also distrusted Geno when they first met, believing him to be Machiavelli.

Pito cares greatly for his creator, Briar, and wishes to see him again.

## History

Pito was originally created to inhabit and control the Geno Angelo armor, but was incompatible with it. He was later deactivated and left unused by Machiavelli for an untold number of years.

## Role in Plot

Pito was first seen inside the Anchor of Epiphany, where he was discovered by the DMS Party in a state of hibernation. When Geno reactivated him, he was immediately skeptical of Geno's identity, believing him to secretly be Machiavelli due to their similar demonic energy. Despite this, he offered his aid to the party in reaching the top of the anchor and deactivating it. Eventually being convinced that Geno was not Machiavelli, Pito agreed to help the party further, though his suspicions were raised once he learned Ardyn was a distant relative of Mundus. When Geno inquired to Pito as to his true identity, Pito offered only speculation. However, he did agree to unlock the full potential of Geno's body once the means to do so were available to him.

After reaching the top of the Anchor of Accomplishment, Geno allowed Pito access to its systems, and he once again greeted the party. After suggesting several times that Ardyn should be killed to no avail, he followed through on his promise to unlock the Geno Angelo armor's heightened combat state. He also scanned the city for several individuals, such as Zinnia and the Echo of Ambition. He offered to accompany the party by placing himself inside Geno's body, but the party decided it would be best to keep him the anchor and have him manage the temperature of the surrounding area.

Once Geno tethered the final anchor to the human world and let Pito into it, the latter inquired about the former's new combat abilities. When Geno informed him that they did not work despite being in sufficient danger, Pito could offer no concrete reason for the failure, but speculated that Geno might not have enough of Machiavelli's demonic essence to activate the suit's heightened combat mode. He then showed the DMS Party a video of Machiavelli attempted to activate the Geno Angelo armor, and Briar's sabotage of the process.

As the four anchors began to retract into the earth, Pito offered to come along with Geno inside his head, to which Geno hastily agreed. The group then escaped the retracting tower, and witnessed the arrival of Adrammelech into the human world. Pito informed the group that Adrammelech was likely resuming its production operations due to the immense heat it was giving off. He also noted that Adrammelech was holding open a gate to the region of hell that Mundus was banished to.
