''﻿Natalia's husband, a talented shoemaker. For 20 years, he's fussed over every instep and insole. Not to long ago, Ciccio heard about wondrous shoes that turn their wearer into a speed demon, and would give anything for a peek at them.''

PS3/Xbox360
During Natalia's modeling days, Ciccio was one of the many suitors that was in love with her. Despite her turning many heads however, Ciccio somehow managed to win her over. He later proposed to Natalia with a lovely blend of flowers, and she accepted his proposal. Ciccio and Natalia later got married and had two children; first a boy who they named Elio and later a daughter who they named Lucia.

As they years passed, Natalia began to gain weight, but Ciccio continued to love his wife without doubt. At some point in his life, Ciccio became a shoemaker and a skilled one at that too, though he was very fussy about his work. He would later come to know well about Professor Pickle, who became a regular customer at his shop.

During the events of Sonic Unleashed, Ciccio was one of the many people that had heard that Professor Pickle had been kidnapped. Sometime after the kidnapping however, Ciccio heard from his customers that Professor Pickle had been rescued by Sonic, Chip and Tails, and was glad to hear it. He later met Sonic and Chip, and expressed his gratitude to them for bringing Professor Pickle back.

Not long after Professor Pickles return however, Ciccio started to notice that Elio had mysteriously been going for walks late in the evening. This behavior made Ciccio very concerned about Elio's whereabouts and what he was doing, and he began to worry about Elio all day long. He later met Sonic and asked him to look for Elio on his behalf. As Sonic accepted Ciccio's request, he thanked Sonic and told him that he appreciated it. After Sonic found Elio, Ciccio asked Sonic if Elio had anything to say for himself, but is disappointed to hear that Elio did not say anything. During the following days, Ciccio started to notice that Lucia was acting strange as well. She had now begun to steal Natalia's food, which was strange since Lucia did not eat much, and made Natalia chase after her.

Eventually, Ciccio's worries was put to rest as he learned from Sonic that his children had been planning for his wife's birthday and now understood their strange behavior. Ciccio had however noticed that Natalia had been in a very bad mood lately due to their children's antics, so he asked Sonic if he could get some oranges for Natalia, which she had loved since her modelling days, so he get her in a better mood. Sonic soon after returned with the oranges, and Ciccio believed these would cheer her up. However, Cicco shortly after realized that by giving Natalia these oranges, it would make Lucia's effort be for nothing. Ciccio nevertheless however told Sonic that the oranges would be enough.

As his wife birthday approached, Ciccio noticed that Elio was having trouble and wondered why. Not long after, he learned from Sonic about his children's birthday gifts, and started to think about how quickly his kids seem to grow up. Ciccio however, did not want to his children to outdo him, and he wanted to give Natalia a gift as well. He therefore ordered a bouquet from Milos in Apotos, but he could not pick it up himself as he was swamped with work. He therefore asked Sonic the favor of going to Apotos and pick it up for him. Sonic soon after came back with it, and Ciccio thanked Sonic for the trouble, but was then pleasantly surprised to see that it was the same bouquet he had used to propose to his wife years ago. Despite having his gift ready however, Ciccio continued to wonder about the kids' gift.

At the night of his wife's birthday, Ciccio was ready give Natalia his gift. He was however told by his kids to wait for them at Restaurant Swa, where they had planned to hold Natalia's birthday. Not long after, Natalia arrived and together with his family, Ciccio celebrated his wife's birthday. During the party, Ciccio admits to Sonic that he had never thought that his children would do so much and that he thinks this is Natalia's best birthday ever. During the following day, Ciccio thanked Sonic for all his help and said that "there is nothing like family".

Ciccio later watched on in horror with the rest of her town, as Dark Gaia began to cast the world into darkness, but rejoiced as the world returned to normal following Perfect Dark Gaia's defeat at the hands of Super Sonic and the Gaia Colossus.
