The Noise

The Noise, AKA, Theodore Noise, is an actor and news anchor for NTV. He is a short Human being with a long nose, a single bucktooth, a slight lisp, and short, black hair. His typical outfit consists of a yellow jumpsuit and mask, an orange cape, and white gloves. As part of this outfit, he also has a thin, curled, mustache that doesn’t seem to connect to his nose while his mask is on.

His mannerisms are usually immature, energetic, bold, and cartoonish. He frequently summons random, often wacky objects out of thin air, as seen in his moves. He also appears to have an awareness of the fourth wall and a tendency to break it. The Noise exhibits very little concern for others. This is shown within his enjoyment of pranks, propensity to cheat, rough handling of Mort, and disregard for the lives of the gnomes. In contrast to his goofy mannerisms and appearance, he can also do a devilish appearance when desired, like when becoming furious or using it to horrify even Fake Peppino. There are implications that some of The Noise's behavior is, in part, a persona. This is hinted at within one of The Noise's idle animations, where he solemnly lights a cigarette and takes a puff before returning to his typical, goofy grin. This is further explored in his depiction within the comics.

Noise's personality helps him serve as a foil to his rival, Peppino. While Peppino is short-tempered, anxious, and relatively fair, The Noise is short-tempered, confident, and dishonest. This contrast is shown in The Noise's boss fight iteration and even more prevalently as a playable character. There are several instances of cheating within his campaign differences and most of his animations depict him as cheerful, unbothered, and/or smug. For example, prior to boss fights if the player plays as him, The Noise yawns and pulls out his bombs with a smug smirk, where as Peppino breaks into a nervous sweat and screams. The Noise's frequent craftiness and tool use also contrasts with Peppino's propensity to use his bare hands.

Trivia:

His design and character are based on The Noid, the anti-mascot of the real-life food chain Domino's Pizza.

Noise's rabbit costume was seen in the ending costume party picture and the Halloween update was likely designed to make him look even more like The Noid.

The Noise is said to hate pizza, preferring candy instead.

This is also a reference to The Noid, since he also hates pizza, spending most of his time trying to destroy them with his signature Pizza Crusher and other wacky gadgets, only failing to Domino's Pizza, whom he is the mascot of.

The name of the Noise's boss fight soundtrack is officially recognized as "Pumpin' Hot Stuff." However, in the sound test room, it is labeled "Pimpin' Hot Stuff."

There is a possibility this is a typo. However, it may be a reference to the Noise boss fight from the Peppino's Xmas Break demo, which bears the same name.

McPig stated that The Noise's voice is designed to sound similar to Jazz Jackrabbit, from the series of the same name.

On a stream, McPig mentioned that The Noise is of Mexican descent.

The Noise originally could have been based on Hatsune Miku, but him being inspired by The Noid was ultimately decided on.

It is also worth mentioning the 2017 fangame Yo! Noid II: Enter the Void, as the final boss is an original character named Mike Hatsune, designed to be Hatsune Miku's father. His inclusion is a reference to the discontinued Japanese food delivery mobile app Domino's App feat. Hatsune Miku, and its' announcement trailer which has garnered an infamous reputation online for the awkward presentation from then-President and CEO of Domino's Pizza Japan, Scott Oelkers.

It has been said that the Noise's full name is Theodore Noise, which is shortened to The Noise.

Noise's full name was originally Theodore J. Noisester, but got changed to just "Theodore Noise".

Upon entering his stage, the game's window will rename itself to "Fighting an Idiot in the Pizza Tower".
