List of Super Mario Bros. characters

This is a complete list of characters who have appeared in Super Mario Brothers in order of appearance.

18-Volt
18-Volt is a major human character in the WarioWare series. He is a great friend of 9-Volt and shares his love in video games with him. 18-Volt debuts in WarioWare: Twisted! where he becomes a new student at Diamond Elementary.

4.1 and 4.2
4.1 and 4.2 are Mona's two anthropomorphic, wolf-like pets who debut in WarioWare: Touched!. They only appear during Mona's story. When Vanessa sics The Dinosaurs in their hawk-like plane on Mona when she travels to the Hawt House, 4.1 and 4.2 steal Art from Mona's van. Pizza Joe comes in, along with her three other animals to reclaim him. Unfortunately, Mona's animals utterly fail. Joe then distracts The Dinosaurs long enough for them to come in and use their soccer ball launcher on the The Dinosaurs' plane. Unfortunately, even 4.1 and 4.2 are unable to rescue Art from The Dinosaurs.

5-Volt
5-Volt is 9-Volt's mother and makes a few appearances in the WarioWare series. She is never fully seen, but judging from what is seen of her, she is a human like her son. 5-Volt lives along with 9-Volt and presumably his pet Fronk in a house in Diamond City.

5-Volt debuts in WarioWare: Twisted!, where she shouts at 9-Volt to go to bed since he is playing with 18-Volt all day. 5-Volt is seen only from behind and from the knees down. After 9-Volt has gone to bed, he still furtively plays with his Game Boy Advance SP under the bedspread, but she catches him when she opens his room's door a second time. 5-Volt's silhouette is seen in the doorway.

5-Volt is seen again in WarioWare: Touched! as a silhouette in the Game Over screen of 9-Volt and 18-Volt's stage. She watches her son and his friend eating.

9-Volt
9-Volt is a major human character in the WarioWare series. He is a Nintendo fanboy, collects everything about this company, and loves to play video games. 9-Volt lives with his mother, 5-Volt and his pet Fronk in their house in Diamond City and attends Diamond Elementary. He debuts in WarioWare, Inc.: Minigame Mania as one of Wario's friends who helps him produce microgames.

Since WarioWare: Twisted!, 9-Volt always stars together with 18-Volt in the WarioWare series, who becomes one of his best friends in this game.

A. Coz
A. Coz is a character in the Game Boy Color version of Mario Tennis. Unlike his partner, B. Coz, he is a speedy player and can return almost any ball. In Singles, the player faces A. Coz in the final round of the Island Open. Like the player, it's his first time in the tournament. In Mario Power Tennis, which takes place several years later, he and B. Coz are revealed to be coaches at Factory. Their younger brother, Willy, is the player's final opponent in the Island Open.

Ackpow
Ackpows are sphinx-hat wearing servants working for Mimi in Super Paper Mario. They are featured in Chapter 2-3 inside Merlee's Mansion. Ackpows' roles are to make sure all of the other servants are working and pay them with Rubees after they're done. Also, if Princess Peach glides to the door above the level start, she can find a Question Block containing a Mushroom. Every time Mario or her jump under the Question Block, they have to pay ten Rubees to the Ackpow watching it. According to Tippi, they act like they're all important, but in reality, they're in debt to Mimi just like every other servant. This is very similar to the system of work the Egyptians used. Their style of dress also seems to reference the Egyptians as well. After Mimi is defeated, the Ackpows are released from servitude. This also means that the previously guarded Question Block will release unlimited Mushrooms for free.

Admiral Bobbery
Admiral Bobbery (usually just referred to as Bobbery) is a Bob-omb who is Mario's sixth partner in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. His wife Scarlette, a female Bob-omb, died of a mysterious illness prior to the events of the game.

Advisors
Advisors are similar to Princess Peach's Toads. They serve Queen Bean in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. Advisors are Beanish and they're numerous within Beanbean Castle. During the events of the game, they're captured by Cackletta and Fawful and placed in the Beanbean Castle Sewers. In the intro of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, Cackletta's follower, Fawful is disguised as an Advisor.

Baby Bowser
Baby Bowser (called Prince Bowser by his minions) is a recurring villain in the Yoshi series. He was designed to be the infant form of Bowser. Although not related to him, Kamek is mainly responsible for his child rearing. Baby Bowser looks similar to his adult form's eighth child, Bowser Jr.. The only difference between the two is that Bowser Jr. has a painting on his bib, while Baby Bowser's is blank, or doesn't have one at all.

Battle T.
Battle T. is a Toad in Mario Party 2 and Mario Party 3. In Mario Party 2 (where he had no name yet) he is the host of the Mini-Game Stadium in the Mini-Game Land. In Mario Party 3, Battle T. is the guide in Battle T's Battle Room. He has a normally white cap with mint green spots and orange shirt. The orange shirt of Battle T. has an orange Mushroom on it.

Big Bad Wolf
The Big Bad Wolf, or the just simply the Wolf, is a villainous, yet somewhat refined anthropomorphic wolf, who lives in the Mushroom Woods. Although he will go to any length to devour a defenseless human, the Big Bad Wolf works alone, and refuses to share or cooperate with any other predators. The Big Bad Wolf is shown to have several spare winter coats, which are actually wolf skins. Whether the Big Bad Wolf wears them over or in place of his natural skin is unknown.

Big Bob-omb
Big Bob-omb, sometimes called King Bob-omb due to his crown, is the king of the Bob-ombs. He's the first boss who is fought in Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS. Guarding the Power Star, which Bowser entrusted him with, he will not give it up without a fight. Interestingly, he makes many more appearances in Mario games.

Birdo
Birdo (Japanese: キャサリン Kyasarin) is a recurring character in the Mario series. In fact, there have been multiple characters known as "Birdo," similar to the multiple Yoshis that have appeared throughout history. The concept of a Birdo character was not solidified until the same pink Birdo began appearing in various spin-off titles. The central Birdo character (that appears in the Mario Kart series, the Mario Party series and the various sports titles) wears a red bow and a diamond ring. She also has some sort of relationship with Yoshi, as they are the automatic partners in various competitions.

Boo
Boos (originally known as "Boo" Diddley) are common ghost-enemies in the Mario series that first appear in Super Mario Bros. 3. They are a type of white spherical ghost with menacing and constantly open mouths. They are known for their large tongues and small "arms" of some sort. However, the most distinctive characteristic of the Boos is their shy personality where they cover their faces when someone looks them directly at the face but will uncover their faces once the subject turned around. Goombario's tattle for the Boo Igor in Paper Mario states: "He probably was a merchant before he became a Boo," implying that current Boos may have once been living beings. It is revealed in Super Mario Galaxy that they speak in Booish.

Bowser
King Bowser Koopa (Japanese 大魔王クッパ Daimaō Kuppa "Great Demon King Koopa", in English also Lord Bowser, King Koopa commonly in other media) is the main antagonist of the Mario series, the supreme leader of the Koopa Troop, King of the Koopas, and the arch-nemesis of Mario. He has repeatedly kidnapped or attempted to kidnap Princess Peach and take over the Mushroom Kingdom. He has on other occasions attempted to conquer the entire Mushroom World, as well as the entire universe.

Since his debut, Bowser has been in nearly every Mario game, including the main series, spin-offs, and crossovers. Besides being a primary villain, Bowser has at times played an anti-villain in all of the Mario RPGs, with the exception of Paper Mario.

Cranky Kong
Cranky Kong is Donkey Kong's fourth wall-breaking, constantly complaining and rambling grandfather. He can also be described as a cantankerous old curmudgeon. He is supposedly the original Donkey Kong from the Donkey Kong arcade game.

Crocodile
Crocodiles are vicious reptiles that can be found on parts of Mushroom World. The Kremlings are a race of advanced crocodiles, but typical crocodiles have made a few appearances throughout the Mario series as well. They mainly appeared in The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! episode "Crocodile Mario", where they were portrayed with voracious appetites, and inhabited Down Under Land.

In "Crocodile Mario", Kangaroo Koopa stole a Magic Statue from a town in Down Under Land that repelled crocodiles. Without the Magic Statue, the crocodiles were free to roam the town. The crocodiles came close to eating everyone there, almost eating the entire general store and the tree that everyone took refuge atop of in the process. Mario and Luigi eventually retrieved the Magic Statue and liberated the town from the crocodiles, who chose to pursue Kangaroo Koopa instead.

In Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, a species of fawfulized crocodiles called Crawfuls appeared in the game as enemies. They resemble bipedal crocodiles with large faces that have Fawful's signature glasses and toothy grin.

Donkey Kong
Donkey Kong, also known as DK, is a powerful hero Kong from Donkey Kong Island. He is a carefree simian who spends his days collecting Bananas and spends time with his friends, particularly his buddy Diddy Kong. However, when trouble arises, Donkey Kong jumps headfirst into the action to help his friends and protect his island. Donkey Kong's character design was created by Shigeru Miyamoto for the Donkey Kong arcade game.

Donkey Kong Jr.
Donkey Kong Jr. (sometimes referred to as DK Jr. or just Junior) is the son of the original Donkey Kong. He first debuted in Donkey Kong Jr., an arcade game first released in 1982. He has yet to make any playable appearances since Mario Tennis. Donkey Kong Jr. may be the modern Donkey Kong from the Donkey Kong Country series, or the father of the modern Donkey Kong, while Junior's father assumed the name Cranky Kong.

Diddy Kong of the Donkey Kong Country series was first intended to be a redesign of Donkey Kong Jr., but Nintendo didn't like the extreme changes Rare, Ltd. was making to the character, and ordered that the Donkey Kong Country sidekick be made into a completely new character.

Goomba
Goombas are one of the major species of Mushroom World and are among Mario and Luigi's most persistent foes. Since their first game appearance in Super Mario Bros. they have appeared as a common foe. Goombas resemble small, brown mushrooms and are a fungus-based species like Toads, Amanitas, Spooks, and Shroobs. Goombas are physically weak and are not much of a threat to Mario, since a single stomp usually defeats them, although a number of different Goomba sub-species have emerged throughout the years. The Goombas, as a collective race, used to be allied with the Mushroom Kingdom. However, many of the Goombas have turned traitorous and joined the Koopa Troop, an organization led by Bowser. While a vast majority of Goombas allied themselves with him, others became independent thieves or even formed peaceful Goomba communities.

Hildy
Hildy is an ugly, witch-like woman and an apparent inhabitant of Rotunda Land, whose ruler, Queen Rotunda, she appears to be friends with.

In The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! episode "Love 'Em and Leave 'Em" Hildy is employed by Queen Rotunda to create for her a love potion that would make the handsome Prince Pompadour fall in love with her. Setting to work, Hildy created the Passion Potion, a powerful love potion which could make it's drinker instantly fall in love with the first person they saw.

Later, after Queen Rotunda was informed by one of her Beezo minions that she had prisoners, Hildy gave Queen Rotunda some of her Passion Potion in a container, to be used in case Queen Rotunda ran into Prince Pompadour while going to see her recently captured prisoners.

Hildy was later seen at the wedding of Mario and Queen Rotunda, who, through an accident, had ingested some Passion Potion and become madly in love with Mario.

Eventually, after Queen Rotunda and Prince Pompadour, who had been among the attendees of the wedding, fell in love with one another after drinking some Passion Potion sneaked to them by Luigi, Hildy decided to make a toast to Queen Rotunda for not marrying Mario; unfortunately, Hildy, during her toast, drank some wedding punch that had a large amount of Passion Potion accidentally dropped in it by Luigi. Drinking this Passion Potion filled punch, Hildy instantly fell in love with the first person she saw after ingesting it, Luigi.

Having become obsessively in love with Luigi, Hildy began to chase him and the nearby Mario, Princess Toadstool and Toad all the way out of Rotunda Land.

Hootenanny
Hootenanny is a Wiggler in Mario Party 2. She appears in Western Land where she runs a milk shop. When a character passes by her shop, they will have the option to give her 20 Coins to start a Hootenanny. If the Player accepts her offer, then all the other characters come to the Milk shop area for a Hootenanny, which brings everyone to the character.

Kamek
Kamek is an old, yet powerful, Magikoopa and apparent advisor to Bowser (or at least high-ranking member in the Koopa Troop). He first appeared in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. He is also Baby Bowser's caretaker, and continues to look after Bowser, even in the present day. Kamek's name comes from the name for the Magikoopa species in Japanese: Kamekku (カメック), which is derived from kame, the Japanese word for "turtle". He is the main villain of the Yoshi series.

King Koopa's mother
King Koopa's mother (alternatively known as Bowser's mother) is the mother of King Koopa, who she appears to be somewhat disappointed in and continously dots on; King Koopa's mother is portrayed as being loudmouthed and overbearing, and is also hinted at being somewhat of a glutton. King Koopa constantly refers to her as Mama, while she calls King Koopa, Koopums.

In The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! episode "Do You Princess Toadstool Take This Koopa...?", King Koopa, unable to think of any friends to invite to his wedding to Princess Toadstool, who he had blackmailed into marrying him, had Mouser invite his mother, who he stated would come for the cake.

Having apparently received Mouser's invitation, King Koopa's mother arrived at her son's castle as King Koopa was instructing his Koopa Troopa band to play better. Immediately showing praise for her son at having finally found a wife to settle down with, King Koopa's mother, upon seeing Princess Toadstool, proclaimed that after Princess Toadstool and her son were married, they would honeymoon with her in the foulest, smelliest swamp in seven worlds. This news caused Princess Toadstool to begin sobbing, which King Koopa's mother misinterpreted as Princess Toadstool being overcome with joy.

When Princess Toadstool and King Koopa's wedding was about to begin, King Koopa's mother noticed that her son wasn't dressed for the occasion, and immediately sent him away to get dressed. As King Koopa put on his wedding jacket and pants, which were earlier ruined and recently repaired by Mouser, his mother evidently became impatient and shrieked for her son to hurry; the sound of his mother's voice prompted King Koopa and Mouser to rush to the wedding, not noticing that King Koopa had left behind his Magic Scepter, which Mario managed to claim.

Before Princess Toadstool could say "I do" to King Koopa during the wedding, Super Mario, Super Luigi and Toad appeared to interrupt it with a hail of fireballs. As the various attending Koopa Troopas and Goombas went into a frenzied panic, King Koopa's mother seemingly managed to avoid the chaos and the collapse of the wedding cake. After things died down and Princess Toadstool, after having learned that King Koopa had changed all the Mushroom People into stone once again after he freed them, broke off her marriage to King Koopa, his mother voiced her outrage at her son. Hitting King Koopa on the head with a drum, his mother yelled that she had to tell all their relatives that King Koopa was still a bachelor before telling King Koopa to sit in the corner for six days, an order which caused King Koopa to faint.

Bowser's father is another non-game character who could have been married to King Koopa's mother. Poopa La Koopa is her implied father, as he is Bowser's grandfather. Alternatively, Poopa La Koopa could also be the father of Bowser's Father.

Koopa Kid
The Koopa Kids are minions of Bowser who have only appeared in the Mario Party series. They are known as Mini-Bowsers in PAL territories, Mini Koopa in Japan (Bowser's name in Japan is Koopa) and Baby Bowsers in Mario Party, Mario Party 2 and Mario Party 3. The Koopa Kids resemble miniature versions of Bowser (and are therefore very similar in appearance to Bowser Jr. and Baby Bowser). Originally, the Koopa Kids were nothing more than minions indirectly fought by the Mario crew when the Koopas attempted to crash their parties, but in Mario Party 5, one was finally made playable (despite this, Bowser shows them no mercy when they land on his space. This is obviously so players using Koopa Kid do not have an advantage).

It is unknown how many Koopa Kids there are. Originally, there seemed to be only a few, but Mario Party Advance seemed to imply that there are close to hundreds of them.

Mario Party 5 also introduced Green K. Kid, Red K. Kid and Blue K. Kid who, as their names imply, are colored differently. The aforementioned colored kids are one Koopa Kid split into three. It is unknown if other Koopa Kids are capable of duplicating like this also.

In Mario Party 7, Koopa Kid is no longer playable. He has his own orb that Bowser sometimes sells in his shops. When it's used it will add a Koopa Kid Space to the board.

Koopa Kid's future is uncertain, as he did not appear in Mario Party 8 or Mario Party DS. Additionally, Bowser Jr. made his Mario Party debut in Mario Party DS (and soon to appear again in Mario Party 9), implying that Koopa Kid may have been retired in favor of him, although this is unconfirmed.

Koopa Troopa
Koopa Troopas (usually Koopas, occasionally Troopas, Japanese ノコノコ Nokonoko) are common enemies in the Mario series, usually displayed as foot soldiers of the Koopa Troop, under the direct leadership of Bowser. Since Super Mario 64, however, many Koopas have appeared who do not work for Bowser (or any other villain), some of whom even act as allies to Mario during his adventures. Koopa Troopas are turtle-like creatures with shells that come in many different colors, with red and green Koopa Troopas being the most common. Koopas, along with Goombas, are some of Mario's most common foes.

Luigi
Luigi (Japanese: ルイージ, Ruīji) is Mario's younger, taller, and slightly thinner twin brother. Luigi has assisted and fought alongside his brother on many occasions. Throughout his life, he has lived in Mario's shadow, developing both cowardly and heroic tendencies. Mario Bros. marks his first appearance in the Mario series, and his debut in general. Originally a palette swap of Mario, Luigi was created to facilitate a second player option. Since the two player mode was dropped from most main Super Mario games beginning with Super Mario Land, Luigi had gained his own identity and personality.

Mario
Mario (Japanese: マリオ, Mario) is the eponymous main character and protagonist of the long-running and highly successful Mario series. He was created by Japanese video game designer Shigeru Miyamoto and also serves as the main mascot of Nintendo. Mario made his first appearance as the protagonist of the arcade game Donkey Kong, released in 1981. Since Super Mario Bros., his trademark abilities have been his jumping and stomping powers, with which he defeats most of his enemies, and his ability to change size and gain powers with a plethora of items, such as the Super Mushroom and Fire Flower. Games have always portrayed Mario as a silent character without a distinct personality. According to Nintendo's philosophy, this allows Mario to fit in many different genres and roles. In most games, he is the hero that goes on an adventure to save Princess Peach from the evil Bowser, but he has shown doing other things besides adventuring, such as racing and sporting.

Millenium Star
The Millennium Star is the name of two known star entities, one false and one who is the real. They both appeared in Mario Party 3.

The imposter Millennium Star is a silver, mustachioed star who will grant the wish of any player who passes his test. The Millennium Star fell on Peach's Garden while Mario and his friends were resting. Mario and his friends argued about who would get the star, which resulted in Lakitu coming and suggesting that they have a contest to see who get the star.

When the player first meets Daisy during the story mode, Daisy makes the Millennium Star fall in love with her. When the player beats Waluigi's Island, the Millennium Star then says that the player has one more opponent. The player doesn't understand so the Millennium star tells the player that it is him. The Millennium Star then challenges the player to the Stardust Battle. After the player beats the Stardust Battle, the Millennium Star then says that he isn't the real Millennium Satr. Tumble then opens the top of his die cap to reveal another, much different Millennium Star; the one Mario and his friends had been trying to please was an imposter. The real Millenium Star is a white star that emits an intense rainbow-colored halo and truly has the power to declare the Superstar of the Universe.

Mr. I
A Mr. I is one of the more spooky-oriented species in the Mario series. Its name is self-descriptive; they seem to be nothing more than a giant eyeball. Additionally, Mr. I is always completely immobile, as it can only rotate around in place.

Mugga
Mugga is a woman from the The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!. Mugga is a medicinal caveman who lives with the Cave Mushrooms in Caveman Land. She does not know how to speak Mario's language, so she uses hieroglyphics and her Cave Mushrooms to communicate with him and his friends. Her only appearance was in the episode Quest for Pizza. In the episode, Mario, Luigi, Princess Toadstool, and Toad were searching for Mugga. Mario's friends discovered her shelter behind a waterfall. Since Mario was in an unconscious state due to a snake bite, Mugga decided to help them. After trying a number of failed treatments, Mugga whispered "pizza". Mario's friends interpreted that she wanted them to feed Mario pizza. They completed the pizza, but needed to cook it. Mugga used a hieroglyphic Fire Flower to tell them that they needed a Fire Flower to cook the pizza.

Mushroom Genie
The Mushroom Genie, also known as the Genie of the Lamp, is a magical entity first appearing in Mario Party 2. When a player rubbed a Magic Lamp, the Mushroom Genie appeared and took them to the host, where a star could be purchased. It reappeared in Mario Party 3, and also had a counterpart in this game: the female Mushroom Jeanie of the Lucky Lamp, who will instead change the Star's location. In Mario Party 4 the Genie appeared as a morbidly obese carrot figure. Unlike in previous games, the Genies would not have the player ride on its back to the star. Instead, it would simply jump and land, causing a huge rumble that would send a player to the star. In Mario Party 5 and afterwards, a Flutter took over the Mushroom Genie's role.

Oogtar
Oogtar is a cave boy resident of Dome City in Dinosaur World. He sometimes causes trouble and appears exclusively in the Super Mario World television series. He wears an animal skin cave man shirt and he has yellow hair. His nickname for Yoshi is "Dino Dude". He also acted as a replacement for Toad.

Oogtar is perhaps the mischief-maker of the Cave People, as he pulls all sorts of pranks on everyone. Yoshi seems to be his best friend, as evidenced by the fact that Oogtar is usually seen with him.

His first appearance was "Ghosts R Us". He hides out in the Enchanted Forest, with Mario, Luigi, Princess Toadstool, and Yoshi trying to find them. While they're searching for them, Mario, Luigi, and Peach were kidnapped by the Magikoopa, Wizardheimer. Yoshi finds him and they set off to rescue Mario, Luigi, and Peach.

He appeared in other episodes like "Rock TV". Three episodes which prominently feature Oogtar are "The Night Before Cave Christmas" and "A Little Learning" and the one above, "Ghosts 'R' Us". The other episodes feature him but not as much. When he appears in other episodes, he's usually for a gag or part of a crowd shot. However in "Rock TV", it's revealed that Oogtar lives with his parents and that he has a sister.

Pauline
Pauline (initially known as Lady or the Lady in Japan) was Mario's original girlfriend and the original damsel-in-distress in the arcade game Donkey Kong who was captured by Donkey Kong (though the Donkey Kong Country games have stated that it is actually Cranky Kong who kidnapped her). She is one of the few damsels in the Mario series who is not a princess, but simply a normal citizen of the world.

Princess Peach
Princess Peach Toadstool (Japanese: ピーチ姫, Pīchi-hime) is the princess of the Mushroom Kingdom. Peach first appeared in Super Mario Bros.. She was created by Shigeru Miyamoto to be the damsel-in-distress throughout most Mario games. She resides in her castle along with many Toads. Her kingdom is often attacked by the Koopa Troop, led by Bowser.

Peach has an affinity for the color pink, which accents her feminine personality and kind temperament. Peach's girlish nature and role as the damsel are often represented with her heart abilities and Princess emblems. Peach's initial design was said to represent her stubborn, yet cute, appearance.

Since her debut, Peach has appeared in installments related to the Mario game series for over 20 years. Peach is occasionally a key supporting character in mainstream games, and almost always playable in spinoff installments. Her most prominent appearance to date is as the heroine of Super Princess Peach.

Peach is portrayed as Mario's love interest and the frequent damsel-in-distress. She is also good friends with Luigi, Toad, and especially Princess Daisy.

Professor Fungi
Professor Fungi is a Toad professor in Mario Party 2. He can be found in Option Lab and can be seen typing the player's records on his typewriter (Or Computer as it's called in the game). The records Professor Fungi wrote contain how many times the player played the game-boards in the game, how many times the characters won, mini-game records that the characters will attempt to beat the record in the mini-game, and Driver's Ed records when the player unlocks the mini-game as the player can attempt to beat the record when playing the mini-game.

He also has an assistant that has a garbage can next to him. If the player wants to delete the player's save file, Professor Fungi will throw the player's records in the trash can.

Shy Guys
Shy Guys (Japanese: ヘイホー, Heihō) are timid troublemakers known for their robes and masks. Their first appearance was in the non-Mario game Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic. They originally worked for Wart in the dreamworld Subcon, but later joined the general canon as common enemies in the Yoshi series. They are famous for their many subspecies.

Steamer
Steamer is a mustachioed locomotive found in Western Land of Mario Party 2. The characters can ride Steamer by hitting a block. If the character hits it and gets a Toad, Steamer goes forward, but if a Goomba appears, Steamer goes backward.

Steamer makes a cameo appearance in Mario Party 3. It appears in the Duel Minigame End of the Line.

Steamer then makes a minor cameo in the Mario Party 4 board Toad's Midway Madness.

In Mario Party 5's Super Duel Mode, the Steamer appeares as one of the machines the player can make. It is very fast, but has poor control. Its Weapon is the Pokey Tower.

In Mario Party DS, a toy Steamer makes an appearance in the 1-Vs.-3 Minigame Track Star. One player stand on the toy train and the rest stand on the rails and try to run away from it. The player is given the choice to either go left or right. If a player chooses the opposite way of the Steamer, they jump in a mine cart along with other players who chose the same way and watch the player who chose the other way. If a player chose the same way as the Steamer, they must tap repeatedly at the two buttons that are shown on the screen to run faster. The player on the Steamer must press A repeatedly to try and catch the fleeing player.

Thwomp
Thwomps are animate cinder-blocks found mostly in the Mushroom Kingdom. They are spike-encrusted living stones that are usually rectangular in shape and made their first appearance in the game Super Mario Bros. 3. They typically attempt to fall on and flatten or squash whoever passes below them, although some move horizontally or diagonally as well. They can only be defeated by being touched by Mario when he is powered-up with a star, uses hammers as Hammer Mario, uses a tail swipe as Raccoon or Tanooki Mario, or when Mario is giant. It is suggested in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time that Thwomps may in fact be born from volcanoes.

Toad
Toad (Japanese: キノピオ, Kinopio) is Princess Peach's attendant and a long time protector of the Mushroom Kingdom. He is actually a singular character among an entire species of look-alikes (much like the Yoshi is to the Yoshi species). He usually has the role of a supporting character who tries to help Mario on his adventures; however, he is occasionally a playable character and a main protagonist at times as well. Despite being reliant on Mario and the other heroes on times of disaster, Toad has made his own fair share of heroic acts such as in his starring role in Wario's Woods where he saves the Mushroom Kingdom from Wario's antagonistic rule, and his status as one of four hero characters in Super Mario Bros. 2. He once made many appearances in the mainstream Mario games, but has lately been reduced to being a playable character in the Mario spin-off titles, while Toadsworth has taken over many of his previous roles.

Wario
Wario (Japanese: ワリオ, Wario) is the obese, yet surprisingly muscular, hot-tempered, greedy anti-hero, and Mario's yellow-and-purple clad rival. Wario's greed pushes him to commit malevolent acts, such as the seizing of Mario's Castle. Due to his money grubbing personality, he is disliked by many citizens of the Mushroom Kingdom. Wario has also proven to be very cunning as he has tricked Mario on more than a few occasions. He often goes out on his own adventures, from stealing treasure to running a minigame making company. Wario has helped heroes of the Mushroom Kingdom on a few separate occasions as well.

Wario is a creation of the late game developer and Game Boy creator Gunpei Yokoi and designed by Hiroji Kiyotake. His name is a combination of Mario and the Japanese word warui (悪い), meaning "bad".

Whomp
Whomps are large, stone enemies that resemble stone rectangles with faces, hands and arms, and feet (without legs). They are the minions of Bowser and the Whomp King. They debuted in the game Super Mario 64. Whomps are related to Thwomps, enemies that are also made out of stone.

Woody
Woody is a kind, smiling, sentient tree that appears in the Mario Party series. He first appears in Mario Party 2, where he resides in Mini-Game Park. After the player plays a Mini-Game, Woody will offer that game for sale when the player visits him. The player can use his Coins to purchase the games. When a Mini-Game is purchased, it shows up in Mini-Game Park. When the player warps into the park, there he can meet the trees that hold games that can be bought. There is one tree for each Mini-Game type. Once all the mini-games have been purchased, Woody will be bearing a pear on his left, which when selected, will take the player to a whole new mini-game, Driver's Ed. Woody has an evil twin, known as Mean Woody. In Mario Party 3 Woody has his own board called Woody Woods. This is where Mean Woody is introduced.

In Mario Party 6, in Towering Treetop, Woody can be seen at the top of the giant tree. In daytime he is good; however, in nighttime Mean Woody replaces him. Apart from the similar names and appearances however, there is no evidence for both of these being the same character.

Yoshi
Yoshi (sometimes specified as Green Yoshi) is one of the heroes of the Mushroom World and an ally of Mario and Luigi. He is a member of the Yoshi species and has aided his brethren in saving their homeland on multiple occasions. Yoshi has also saved other kingdoms from the villain Bowser as well. In his youth, Yoshi managed to rescue and protect Baby Mario and Baby Luigi from the wrath of Kamek and the Koopa Troop. According to Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, Yoshi is the only one of his species who can speak the language of the other characters. However, in later games, he doesn't speak the language (as shown in Mario Superstar Baseball and Mario Super Sluggers). This is contradicted once again, in Super Mario Galaxy 2, when Yoshi speaks in perfect English. Yoshi made his very first appearance, game-wise, in the Super Mario World level, Yoshi's Island 2. The roles he plays in the series varies from game to game.
