Biography
Buon giorno! I'm Carlo Piro, the older son of Count Piro. I'm a twin - I've got a brother named Claudio, who is younger by eight minutes.

My father was a beggar boy who was given a pear tree that bore fruit all year round. One winter day, a fox asked to take his pears. Dad gave him the pears, and the fox brought it to the king. The next day, the fox bought more pears, and the king asked if his daughter could marry Dad. The fox got Dad a fine suit from a tailor. On the third day, Dad married the princess. Later, the fox told a shepherd that he should say the sheep belonged to Count Piro (Dad's new title), and did the same with a pigherd and a horseherd. He went to the castle of an ogre and ogress and told them to hide in the oven. When the ogre and the ogress hid in the oven, the fox trapped them in. Dad received the new palace.

We live in the palace with our parents. We're very comfortable here. Claudio and I get along very well. Right now, Claudio and I are going to Ever After High. It's a nice school.

What do we do here? We grow pears. We have nice pear trees growing in various places on the school grounds. I'm not too thrilled with taking care of them, though. I'd rather go on an adventure. I wouldn't mind having a fox around to give me good fortune.

I'm the more outgoing of the two Piro brothers, and I'm very friendly. I enjoy chatting with my friends. I'm good friends with Dexter Charming and enjoy spending time with him.

I also enjoy working with foxes. I'm a Royal since I want to continue my father's destiny.
