PePe Waccabrada

is a Quincy and a member of the Wandenreich's Sternritter with the designation "L" - The Love.

Appearance
PePe is a large, dark-skinned man with dark fingernails and a long, light-colored beard that encloses his mouth and forms an upside-down V shape. He is bald, and wears a pair of dark sunglasses. PePe is very fat, and wears pointed shoes, a white sweatshirt, a long white cape with the Wandenreich emblem on the back, and white pants. He usually transports himself on a floating white disk.

Personality
PePe holds great faith in the power and influence of love, believing it is responsible for all conflicts and allows one to overcome all obstacles in the pursuit of a goal. He believes his body is pure and makes everyone want to love him. However, he cannot comprehend someone being unable to accept his love, and is enraged when this occurs.

He considers Gremmy Thoumeaux a monster who should have been left locked up instead of being released to fight Kenpachi Zaraki.

The Thousand-Year Blood War arc
Upon receiving the orders of Yhwach, PePe and the other Sternritter gather at the Gate of the Sun before traveling to the Seireitei in order to participate in the conquest of Soul Society. Upon arriving, he and the other Sternritter create pillars of blue flames prior to engaging the Shinigami in battle. Later, he watches and laughs as Jidanbō Ikkanzaka attacks the Shinigami Research and Development Institute.

PePe is present with the other Sternritter when Yhwach announces that Uryū Ishida will be his successor. Later, when Askin Nakk Le Vaar breaks up a confrontation between Bazz-B and Jugram Haschwalth, he warns the two that they should be wary of onlookers. Surely enough, PePe spies on the exchange from behind cover, with the use of his staff. He laughs to himself when he is noticed.

Much later, PePe finds Askin watching the fight between Kenpachi Zaraki and Gremmy Thoumeaux, and confirms his observation of Gremmy being too dangerous to release into the wild because he is a monster. When Askin notes that he is also a monster, PePe points out that this applies to both of them. When Askin gets up, PePe asks him if he is going somewhere, prompting Askin to admit he does not want to get caught up in the fight. PePe notes this is true, as they are not safe even at the distance they are at. Later, PePe watches as the meteorite which Gremmy summoned hurtles toward the Seireitei.

Soon afterward, PePe, NaNaNa Najahkoop, and the Unnamed Male Sternritter confront Ichigo Kurosaki alongside five other Sternritter and prepare to battle him. PePe watches as several more Shinigami confront the Sternritter. Soon afterward, PePe rushes toward the Shinigami alongside the other Sternritter, who have activated their Quincy: Vollständig. As the battle proceeds, Pepe uses his ability to gain control of 9th Division Lieutenant Shūhei Hisagi, who he has attack 6th Division Captain Byakuya Kuchiki. Pepe then launches another heart, aimed at Liltotto Lamperd and Meninas McAllon. He succeeds in gaining control of Meninas, who then attacks Liltotto.

As Hisagi continues to attack Byakuya, PePe notes conflicts are very sad things because they stem from love, which also causes them to be beautiful. However, Byakuya interrupts him by incapacitating Hisagi and states he will kill PePe to free his puppets. Calling Byakuya scary, PePe fires a heart at him before proceeding to fire a continuous heart-shaped beam, which Byakuya moves around to avoid. Eventually, Byakuya deflects the beam with his Zanpakutō and points out how PePe cannot take control of objects without hearts, only for PePe to ask him why he blocked with his Zanpakutō if he knew this. As Byakuya is attacked by his own Zanpakutō, PePe reveals he knows that Zanpakutō have hearts, which is why he did not steal any Bankai during the previous invasion. When Byakuya throws his Zanpakutō aside, PePe wonders why he is doing this and points out that Byakuya is giving him an opportunity as Hisagi picks up Byakuya's Zanpakutō. As Hisagi begins attacking Byakuya once more, PePe proclaims the power of love is very noble before using Love Kiss, which hits Byakuya's shoulder. Despite this, Byakuya manages to defend himself from Hisagi, prompting PePe to wonder if his heart is devoid of love before entering his Quincy: Vollständig, Gudoero, and using Love Rope, which pierces Byakuya with thick strings of hearts. Hisagi moves to attack Byakuya, only for PePe to stop him before pulling a bow and arrow out of his mouth and preparing to shoot Byakuya. However, PePe is interrupted by the arrival of the zombified Kensei Muguruma and Rōjūrō Ōtoribashi, the former of whom kicks him in the head.

Powers & Abilities
