Appearance
Physical appearance
August is short and small, having dark brown skin, short reddish-brown hair, and light brilliant sap green eyes.
Civilian attire
On his left wrist, August wears a gold bracelet that has a sign which is spell his name. He wears a white and purple striped hood-less baby onesie jumpsuit along with plain white leggings and purple shoes.
As Gigantitan
Gigantitan's eyes were light brilliant mulberry color with blue-violetish black pupils and light brilliant harlequin sclerae. He wore a purple hood that protected his entire head with a green object on his forehead and a pink mask covering his face. He also wore a purple one-piece bodysuit with pink sleeve cuffs and a green and purple colored bracelet on his left wrist. On the center of the bodysuit was a logo which was mostly green with a magenta outline that has a picture of a pacifier on it. Gigantitan also wore pink and green ankle cuffs that were attached to his ankles, above his feet.
Personality
August is a very content, lively, and positive child. He likes to play around with objects and is, for the most part, well-behaved. However, according to his mother, he can be very stubborn. He has a tendency to cry if he loses items important to him or doesn't get what he wants, and sometimes he doesn't immediately calm down, as is common for young children. Even though he is too young to eat them, he adores sweets and becomes very enthusiastic and eager when he comes across them. He knows how to be polite, thanking Ladybug and Cat Noir when they return him to his mother.
As Gigantitan, he was inquisitive, joyful, and bold. He liked to play with any object that he discovers, but he wasn't very attentive to his surroundings, and when not able to discover anything to entertain himself, he got upset and downhearted until he was satisfied by another object or distraction. Not old enough to know and understand many things, including common virtues, he often disobeyed or misunderstood Hawk Moth's orders, and he didn't have an issue sticking structures or humans in his mouth because he mistook them for lollipops.
Abilities
As Gigantitan
Due to his enormous strength and size, Gigantitan could easily pick up almost any object with a single hand, and he could throw them a great distance. His weight and strength made it easy for him to destroy or crush objects, such as pulling the string of Ladybug's yo-yo, causing it to cut the Eiffel Tower, and he traveled distances faster when following or chasing other objects.
