Peppo

Role in the Story
Peppo was one of the bandits in the beginning of the story who kidnapped Albert.

She later accepts employment as a maid in the Morcerf household.

Peppo falls in (unrequited) love with Albert but helps him rescue his ex-fiancee, Eugenie, from a marriage to the fake aristocrat Andrea Cavalcanti.

The Count of Monte Cristo noted that Peppo was a boy.

Personality
Her personality is brusque and straightforward. She is honest to a fault. Her bluntness is uncharacteristic of aristocratic diplomacy and often provokes offense. She tends to chastise those who deny uncomfortable truths and plays a consistent role as a personified "reality check."
