Editing List of implied characters

This '''list of implied characters''' is a list of characters that have not physically appeared in any form of media up to this point in time. Regardless of their lack of appearance, the implied characters have been mentioned at least once throughout the [[Mario (franchise)|''Mario'' franchise]]. For a list of non-fictional people who have been referenced throughout the series, please see the [[list of implied people]].

'''Agent O''' (can also be called '''Secret Agent O''') is an implied secret agent in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' episode, ''[[On Her Majesty's Sewer Service]]''. After [[Princess Peach]] recruits [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]], they meet [[Secret Agent N]] and he introduces himself. Luigi says "I see." followed by N saying, "Not C. N." Mario responds with "Oh.", leading N to say, "Not O. N. Agent O's on holiday." Agent O is never mentioned again after this.

[[File:Toad Town News.png|frame|right|Mario and [[Goombario]] reading one of his gossips about Princess Peach from the back side of the Toad Town notice board in ''Paper Mario'']]

"'''A gossip-loving [[Toad (species)|Toad]]'''" is a character who posts scribbles on the back side of the notice board in [[Toad Town]] during the events of ''[[Paper Mario]]''. This character's posts are mainly gossips about Princess Peach. They also report that Mario has been defeated by [[Bowser]] and that [[Tayce T.]]'s cooking class will be canceled for a while. There are also scribblers who sign themselves as "A little Toad", "A scribble-loving little Toad", etc., but the name "A gossip-loving Toad" appears most frequently (5 times in total).

[[File:Auntmaria.jpg|thumb|left|The cloud that resembles Aunt Maria]]

'''Aunt Maria''' is an aunt of Mario and Luigi's who was briefly mentioned by Luigi in ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' episode "[[Crimes R Us]]". While Mario and Luigi were looking at clouds, Luigi commented that one of them resembled their Aunt Maria. An Aunt Maria was also mentioned in the book ''[[Doors to Doom]]'', where [[Donkey Kong Jr.]]'s yell was compared to a cross between Tarzan's ululation and the screech Aunt Maria makes when the Mario Bros. walk on her newly waxed floor.

'''Bachelor's girlfriend''' is the unseen love interest of [[Bachelor]] in the [[Game Boy Advance]] version of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]''. Little is revealed about the character, except that Bachelor implies that she is "hot", and is currently dating her. Like Bachelor, she is presumably a bear herself.

The '''Big Rock Who Watches''' seems to be the deity of the [[Cragnons]] of ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. In the opening of [[Land of the Cragnons|Chapter 5]], two Cragnons are shown praying for the survival of their people, who are being terrorized by the [[Floro Sapien]]s, and when Mario falls into their midst, they believe he was sent by the Big Rock Who Watches to save them. It is possible that Big Rock Who Watches is a fourth-wall breaking reference to the player, similar to other allusions to the player by other characters in the game.

'''Billy''' is a [[crow]] from ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' who is the son of [[List_of_Implied_Characters#Bob|Bob]] and [[Maude]]. His mom is contemplating saving for his college fund after hearing about [[Ronnie]].

'''Bluebeard Baboon''' is a pirate mentioned in the ''[[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' TV series episode "[[The Curse of Kongo Bongo]]". One thousand years prior to the events in the show, his ship, for unexplained reasons, sank, killing him. Every one hundred years afterward, his ghost will rise out of the ocean and deliver to everyone a letter containing "the curse of the double doubloon"; the letter, which is actually a description of the curse, states that anybody who reads it twice will cause the [[Crystal Coconut]] to lose its power and the island to sink into the ocean.

 

 

'''Blumiere's father''' (or '''[[Count Bleck]]'s Father''') was a member of the [[Tribe of Darkness]] and the father of Blumiere, also known as Count Bleck. Little is known about the father, and he is only mentioned in a few of Blumiere's backstory segments in ''Super Paper Mario''.

 

Blumiere's father didn't accept the love his son expressed for the human, Lady Timpani, since marrying anyone outside of the tribe was forbidden out of fear that their powerful magic bloodline would become diluted (as explained by [[Carson]]). Upon learning that the two lovers were planning to elope, Blumiere's father stopped their marriage by using his magic powers to curse Timpani to wander the dimensions until the day she died. Losing Timpani spurred Blumiere to steal the [[Dark Prognosticus]] from the care of his tribe so that he could destroy the world that took his love away. Blumiere's father begged him to stop, but Blumiere, now calling himself Count Bleck, killed him and wiped out the rest of the Tribe of Darkness as the first step towards destroying the world.

 

It is not made clear whether the world in which Blumiere's father lived was restored following the destruction of the [[Chaos Heart]] at the end of the game; since the dimension was apparently destroyed before [[The Void]] was opened, it is unknown as to whether the wedding of Blumiere and Timpani would have been capable of restoring it to normal. Thus, the ultimate fate of Blumiere's father and the other members of the Tribe of Darkness remains unknown.

==Bluster's mother==

'''Bluster Kong's mother''' is a character that is commonly referenced in the ''Donkey Kong Country'' TV series. She has been stated to be the owner of [[Bluster Barrelworks]]. Bluster is occasionally heard speaking with her on a mobile phone.

'''Bob''' is a crow from ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', who is mentioned in his wife Maude's conversation with [[Flo]] after [[Doopliss]] is defeated.

{{Quote|I want to marry Bobolink in a shocker wedding.|Swob|Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door}}

'''Bobolink''' is a female [[Bob-omb]] with whom [[Swob]] is in love. During this period of his life, Swob writes about his marriage on a rock on the fiftieth floor of [[Rogueport]]'s [[Pit of 100 Trials (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Pit of 100 Trials]]. He also writes that he wants to have 22 children, so his family can play soccer matches. He believes that any wish written on the fiftieth floor of the Pit will come true. He uses a "special big explosion" to get down to the fiftieth floor and writes the graffiti so fiercely that it would be almost impossible to remove. When he finds out that this is a hoax, he files a request at the [[Trouble Center]]. Mario accepts the trouble and has [[Admiral Bobbery]] destroy the wall after reading the wish.

The '''Bog Monster''' is an apparently horrific creature that, according to [[Klump (character)|Klump]], eats everything in sight. It resides in the [[Forbidden Forest]] on [[Donkey Kong Island|Kongo Bongo Island]], as stated in the ''Donkey Kong Country'' cartoon. As it is never seen, the only physical description given is in the lyrics to one of the songs in an, in which it's described as a monster having crystal skin, giant claws, dripping fangs, beady red eyes, stinky breath that could knock over a rhino, hair full of maggots, ears dripping something yellow, and arms thicker than a tree. Of course, this is when [[Donkey Kong]] saw it and that was [[Cranky Kong]] disguised as a Bog Monster, so there's no way of telling if this is an accurate description.

Oddly, it seems the Bog Monster may have been an actual creature, since, at the end of "Bug A Boogie", Klump and [[Krusha (character)|Krusha]], while trying to help [[King K. Rool]] out of a pit of quicksand he was stuck in, heard a monstrous roar in the Forbidden Forest, seemingly the Bog Monster.

[[Diddy Kong]] also has the unique talent of mimicking the roar of one.

'''Bowser's father''' was briefly mentioned by him in the ''[[Nintendo Comics System]]'' issues "[[Bedtime for Drain-Head]]" and "[[The Buddy System]]". As Bowser's father was only mentioned in passing, not much is known about him, except that he was supposedly a criminal on the run, as Bowser told the captured [[Toad]] that he hoped to see his father on the television program "Kingdom's Most Wanted", which is seemingly a parody of {{wp|America's Most Wanted}}, a show dedicated in helping catch criminals.

Additionally, Bowser also mentioned that his father was the one who taught him the life lesson "'Son, when you put your mind to it, there's no problem big enough to run away from!". Mama Koopa is another non-game character who could have been married to Bowser's father.

{{quote2|You remind me of my kid sister<br>She read so much, she got a blister<br>A big one, I mean big<br>On her brain, what a shnook!|Bowser|"Ignorance is Bliss"}}

'''Bowser's sister''' is one of Bowser's family members. She is only mentioned in the song "[[Ignorance is Bliss]]", when Bowser likens Peach to his sister because they both enjoy reading, which he views disparagingly. According to Bowser, his sister got a blister on her brain from all her reading.

'''Breadward''' is a [[Pixl]] that was mentioned by [[Mimi]] in ''Super Paper Mario''. Mimi (disguised as [[Merlee]]) attempts to swindle Mario and Princess Peach into signing a paper and earning the [[Pure Heart]] in exchange for some [[Rubee]]s. If Mario and Peach refuse to sign the paper four times, she offers them Breadward, who she claims is made from "oats and lard". It is not known if Breadward actually exists, however.

'''Britney''' is the lead female character in ''[[Toad Force V]]'', an implied action TV show mentioned several times in ''[[Mario Party Advance]]''; Britney herself is only brought up briefly by [[Mushbert]] in the mission DVD For Me.

Once of the few things known about Britney is that she surpasses the hero of ''Toad Force V'', [[Jack]], in popularity among the show's fanbase, presumably making her the most popular character in the series. She is Jack's sidekick, and together they are the only known members of the Toad Force V group of protagonists. It is possible that she, like many other characters on the show, is a robotic Toad, but this is theoretical as she is simply identified as a "Heroine", and nothing more.

The '''Cabin Proprietor''' is a character that owns the cabin found at near the starting point of [[Cool, Cool Mountain]] in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''. On a sign outside the cabin is a message from the proprietor telling the player that they can enter the cabin by leaping down into the chimney.

[[File:FirstCannoli.png|thumb|The first family member of the Cannoli clan, Cannoli the First]]

'''The Cannoli clan''' is a family of thieves mentioned by [[Count Cannoli]] many times in ''[[Wario: Master of Disguise]]''. This family has been a family of thieves for generations. Count Cannoli and [[Goodstyle]], who is actually the very first Cannoli, are the only seen family members in the game. It is unknown if there are any members of the family still alive other than them.

It is known that Goodstyle has been passed down in the family, and that each family member has had their own machine (Cannoli had the [[Mad Hat Mk. I]]) and that each machine had a weakness. The [[Mad Hat Mk. II]] has been protecting the Cannoli family for generations, and is probably the whole family's machine.

'''C. Parmesan''' is a book author implied in the [[Study]] in ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]''. In this room, there is a book titled ''Darkness is Their Cheese'', which clues the player about the hidden [[cheese]] found in various rooms throughout the [[Luigi's Mansion (place)|mansion]], which spawn [[Gold Mouse|Gold Mice]] when examined with the [[Game Boy Horror]]. C. Parmesan's name is a reference to {{wp|Parmigiano-Reggiano|parmesan}}, a type of cheese.

 

==The Cap'n==

'''The Cap'n''' is a character that is mentioned in ''Super Mario 64'' and its remake, ''Super Mario 64 DS''. In a cavern accessible by swimming through an underwater tunnel past the ship in [[Jolly Roger Bay]], there is a sign with a message from the Cap'n stating that anybody who enters will "meet certain disaster." At the end of the cavern, another sign near a group of treasure chests contains a second message from the Cap'n, this time stating that in order to obtain his treasure, the player must open the treasure chests in the correct order, but does not explain what the order is. Opening the chests reveals that the Cap'n's "treasure" is the Power Star for the [[Treasure in the Ocean Cave|third mission]].

As the word "cap'n" is simply short for the word "captain", the title has been used in other ''Mario'' games; an example of this is in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', where the captain of the [[S.S. Chuckola]] is referred to as "Cap'n" in one line of dialogue.

==Chestnut King==

{{about|the character encountered by Luigi in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''|the recurring boss with the same name in various languages|[[Goomboss]]|section=yes}}

According to [[Luigi]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', the '''Chestnut King''' is the villain who kidnaps [[#Princess Eclair|Princess Eclair]] from the [[List of implied locations#Waffle Kingdom|Waffle Kingdom]] and brings her to [[List of implied locations#Hatesong Tower|Hatesong Tower]]. Luigi travels to the tower by using the [[List of implied items#Marvelous Compass|Marvelous Compass]]. Once there, Luigi challenges the Chestnut King to a battle. The king eventually loses to Luigi and his [[hammer]]. However, before Luigi can deliver the final blow, Princess Eclair appears and stops him. It turns out that the Chestnut King and the princess are actually lovers, much to Luigi's dismay. The King was transformed into a monster through the magic of [[#Minister Crepe|Minister Crepe]] of the Waffle Kingdom. Eventually, Luigi defeats Crepe, presumably restoring the Chestnut King to his former self. Luigi never admits that he was wrong in believing that the Chestnut King was the Princess's captor, and Mario can only read about it in the [[Super Luigi Series|''Super Luigi'' book series]].

The character [[Goomboss]], originally known as the Goomba King, shares the same name as the Chestnut King in various European translations and the original Japanese version of the game. Goombas are known as ''kuribō'', meaning "Chestnut People", in Japan, which is where Goomboss's name is derived, whereas the Chestnut King may be following the convention of food-related Waffle Kingdom names. It is unknown if they are meant to be the same character, as Goomboss was never said to be a transformed monster (Bowser using the Star Rod to make him into a king in ''Paper Mario'' aside) and has appeared since ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''{{'}}s release.

Chief Quimby, who was only ever referred to as "The Chief", had a minor role on ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'', in the live-action segment "[[Defective Gadgetry]]". In it, he called Inspector Gadget on his top-secret gadget phone, and asked when Inspector Gadget would be coming over. As Inspector Gadget was awaiting repairs at [[Mario Brothers Plumbing]], he told the Chief that he would be on his way as soon as Mario and Luigi repaired his gadgets.

'''Colonel Hubert Jefferson''' is [[Lucy Belle]]'s great grandfather, and consequently [[Bones (character)|Bones]]'s second great uncle or cousin three times added (though the exact relation is left unspecified), who was mentioned in the ''[[Saturday Supercade]]'' episode "[[Double or Nothing]]". He had left behind a will stating that [[Mr. Bancroft and Hugo|Mr. Bancroft]] would inherit his mansion unless Lucy Belle solved a certain {{wp|rebus}} puzzle by the midnight following the will's reading, in which she would inherit the mansion instead.

{{quote2|Fear the curse, but find your Eclair.|Cranberry|[[Super Luigi series#Super Luigi Volume 4: The Shards of Truth|Super Luigi 4]]}}

 

Luigi met Cranberry in Rapturous Ruins, where he was found sleeping. With a sneeze (a soft call in the ''Super Luigi'' novelization), Luigi awoke Cranberry and earned the ability to speak his language; Cranberry explained that the Luffs were once a great empire because of their use of the Marvelous Compass's powers, but they were cursed because of their greed. Seeing his own people fall into ruin, Cranberry decided to split the compass into seven parts to avoid the repetition of the Luffian fate, hiding six Marvelous Compass pieces and keeping one with himself in Rapturous Ruins. For a thousand years, Cranberry awaited a hero to complete the Marvelous Compass and save Princess Eclair. Luigi turned out to be this noble-hearted hero, and Cranberry promptly gave him the last compass piece. His purpose fulfilled, Cranberry then faded away with a joyful smile.

The '''Dark Mage''' is a character mentioned in the English localization of ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. The only thing known about the Dark Mage is that he sent [[Culex]] to Mario's universe to fight on his behalf, though it turns out that Mario's world is uninhabitable by his kind. The Dark Mage is a possible reference to the iconic [[Black Mage]] class that appears throughout the ''Final Fantasy'' series. He is unmentioned in the Japanese version<ref name=Mato>[http://legendsoflocalization.com/culex-is-quite-different-in-japanese-super-mario-rpg/ Culex is Quite Different in Japanese Super Mario RPG - Legends of Localization.] Retrieved February 2, 2016</ref>.

'''Dobson''' is part of the main reason behind ''[[Kroop]]'' having incredibly huge eyebrows covering his eyes. He was briefly mentioned in a bit of dialogue and then never spoken of again.

==Flight==

'''Flight''' is a friend of [[Lakilester]] (whom he calls by his nickname, "Spike") in the game ''Paper Mario''. When Flight learns that Lakilester was helping Mario he sends Lakilester a letter saying he will not forgive him unless he defeats Bowser, which Flight doubted would ever happen.

'''Fluffy''' was Wario's pet hamster who died in the year 1986, as explained in a ''[[Wario's Warehouse]]'' article.

'''Footsteps of Meat''' is a [[List of characters|character]] (possibly a [[Sammer Guy]]) mentioned by [[Tippi]] in ''Super Paper Mario''. While using her [[Tattle]] on [[List of Sammer Guys#Footsteps of Coins|Footsteps of Coins]], she will reveal that he has a less-known brother called Footsteps of Meat. It may be a reference to Bowser's ability to collect [[Meat]] in his intermissions of ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' and how his brother puts [[coin]]s in all [[level]]s, implying that Footsteps of Meat disperses the meat throughout Bowser’s levels.

'''Genghis Koopa''' was an ancestor of Bowser mentioned in the Nintendo Adventure Book ''Double Trouble''. When Mario is pursuing Iggy Koopa down the hallway inside Fort Koopa, he accidentally bumps into a statue of Genghis Koopa, causing it to fall over and shatter. A mouse then crawls out of the statue and scurries away. He is most likely a parody of notorious Mongol leader Genghis Khan.

'''Grandma Mia''' is a grandmother to Mario and Luigi, who was briefly mentioned by Mario in ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'' episode "[[The Fire of Hercufleas]]". After Mario and his friends had helped train the obese [[Hercufleas]] back into shape, Mario remarked that Hercufleas was even stronger than his Grandma Mia's garlic chip cookies. Grandma Mia, however, may even be another name for [[Grandma Mario]], as [[Mama Mario]] is often referred to as "Mama Mia" by Mario and Luigi, and Mario once stated that his grandmother's full name is Grandmama Mia Mario.<ref name="Mario Mario">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AAjhjLuWbC8</ref>

'''Grandpapa''' is [[Mario (film character)|Mario]] and [[Luigi (film character)|Luigi]]'s paternal grandfather, who was mentioned by Mario once in the [[Super Mario Bros. (film)|''Super Mario Bros.'' movie]]. In the film, the Mario Bros. came from a long line of plumbers, and their tools had been passed down to them by their [[Papa]], who had received them from Grandpapa. Mario briefly mentioned him at {{wp|San Diego Comic-Con}} 2012, implying that his real name is actually Grandpapa Pio Mario before cutting himself short.<ref name="Mario Mario"/>

'''Hamma Jamma's father''' is the father of [[Hamma, Bamma, and Flare#Hamma Jamma|Hamma Jamma]] who is mentioned twice in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''. He is notable for being the only known [[Business Bro]].

Little is known about Hamma Jamma's father, other than being one of Hamma Jamma's many family members that left to join the [[Glitz Pit]]. Unlike Hamma Jamma's beloved [[#Hamma Jamma's grandfather|grandfather]], references to him are very rare. Hamma Jamma's first mention of him states that he dropped out of Hammer Bros. school, choosing to enroll in Business Bros. school. This act seemed to have embarrassed and confused his son. The last mention of him, however, seems to suggest that Hamma Jamma may still love his father: When referring to his dad this time, Hamma says that he's actually attending his fight that day (which could mean that he appeared in the audience during one of Mario's fights), and he wishes to win and impress him.

Hamma Jamma, a fighter in the Glitz Pit and member of the Hamma, Bamma, & Flare team, continually cites his grandfather as his inspiration. Apparently, his grandpa once owned his beloved [[hammer]] and is one of Hamma's several family members he left behind to pursue a career in fighting.

Hamma Jamma stated that [[World 7-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 7-1]] from ''Super Mario Bros.'' is his grandfather's "'hood".

==Heronicus's Flopside Counterpart==

'''Heronicus's Flopside Counterpart''' is mentioned by a few characters in ''Super Paper Mario'' (mainly [[Hatch]]). He is a brave explorer who went hunting for a legendary Pixl but his partner's [[Game Over|game ended]] while Heronicus's Flopside Counterpart saved the Pixl, so he continued exploring solo. The Pixl he rescued turned out to be [[Piccolo]] who was found in his house. [[Heronicus]] contrasts from what his counterpart did and rescued his partner while his Legendary Pixl died. Because of this, he and his partner retired out of depression. [[Flamm]] sells [[Map]]s left behind by Heronicus's Flopside Counterpart. His name isn't mentioned at any point of the game nor is he even seen.

==Hizza==

'''Hizza''' is a giant, two-headed snake that Luigi fights during his adventure to assemble the Marvelous Compass and rescue Princess Eclair. In ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', the people of [[Plumpbelly Village]] are forced to sacrifice young maidens to the monstrous snake Hizza. Eventually, the mayor's daughter is the next to be sacrificed. As such, Luigi puts on the young woman's dress and travels (with his new partner [[Jerry (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Jerry]]) to Hizza's lair. During the epic battle that follows, Luigi manages to trick Hizza's two heads into eating each other, thus destroying the creature for all eternity. As a result, the citizens of Plumpbelly Village no longer have to live in fear, and the mayor gives Luigi a piece of the Marvelous Compass.

'''James''' is apparently the greatest thief who ever lived. He was mentioned in the enemy glossary of ''Wario: Master of Disguise.'' Although he steals well, he isn't very good at the "escaping" part. James is deceased, and his soul is inside the [[Sir Steal-A-Lot]].

==Johnson (Airship crewman)==

'''Johnson''' is a character who was alluded to briefly in ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]''.

A member of the [[airship]] near the [[The Crimson Tower|Crimson Tower]], Johnson was supposed to lift up the anchor tethering the ship once they have drained the Crimson Tower and the surrounding area of its color. However, by the time they were due to leave, he had clearly neglected to do so, causing the airship to jolt and freeze in place, resulting in at least one [[Shy Guy]] falling off the bucket down to the tower, as well as the captain chewing out Johnson for his incompetence before asking Mario to untether the anchor.

==Johnson (X-Naut)==

'''Johnson''' is an [[X-Naut]] Trooper who appears briefly in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''.

After Mario beats a tutorial battle with [[Lord Crump]] (in an attempt to save Goombella from him), the disgruntled X-Naut official summons several of his henchmen to attack Mario and his new friend. Goombella and Mario manage to escape the melee safely, leaving the X-Nauts to pummel Lord Crump. Angrier than ever, Crump calls off his force to realize that his enemies had vamoosed. He addresses Johnson, asking him where they went, before quickly opening the question to anyone who might know.

==[[Kaptain Skurvy]]'s father==

'''Kaptain Skurvy's father''' is the unnamed father of Kaptain Skurvy. He was a pirate, much akin to the rest of his family. When Kaptain Skurvy was a young man, his father told him legends of his great-great-great grandpappy, [[#Quint Skurvy|Quint Skurvy]].

==King Bask==

'''King Bask''' is mentioned by [[Aster]] in ''[[Mario Tennis Aces]]''. He was a former king of the [[Kingdom of Bask]]. It is known that many years prior to the game's events, he heard of [[Lucien]]'s power and took for himself, only for it to destroy his kingdom. However, King Bask managed to strip Lucien of its power and divided the power between the five [[Power Stone]]s, and hid Lucien in a secret room in his temple.

{{main|King Croacus I}}

{{main|King Croacus III}}

'''King Koopa's great-great grandkoop''' is King Koopa's paternal great-great grandfather. He was mentioned in ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'' episode "[[Raiders of the Lost Mushroom]]" by King Koopa (or Kolonel von Koop, as he was called throughout the episode), who explained that his great-great grandkoop left the [[Lost Mushroom]] to him, so it was rightfully his property. [[Indiana Joe]] later made a reference to King Koopa's great-great Grandkoop, stating that he was the one who built the [[Temple of Koopa]], presumably to hide the Lost Mushroom.

'''King Sammer I''' was the first ruler of [[Sammer's Kingdom]] and the great-great-grandfather of [[King Sammer]], who is the kingdom's current king. King Sammer I was mentioned by [[Garson]] at [[The Underwhere (bar)|The Underwhere bar]] in [[Flipside]] in the game ''Super Paper Mario''. When [[#Merlumina's sister|Merlumina's sister]] was sent to Sammer's Kingdom to deliver the purple Pure Heart, the two fell in love and had 100 children together, possibly the 100 Sammer Guys.

The '''Legendary Pixl''' is a Pixl who is briefly mentioned by Heronicus during the events of ''Super Paper Mario''. Heronicus has spent a large portion of his life searching for it, and he also mentions that he found it once, but before he could get it from the cave it was in, he and his partner were caught up in a rock slide and Heronicus chose to save his partner's life instead of the Pixl.

'''Leonardo da Vinci Rooney''' is a Renaissance artist and the master of Leonardo da Vinci. In "[[The Painting]]", [[Howard Stevens]] explains that da Vinci's famous painting, "The Last Supper", was actually a copy of Rooney's painting, "The Second-to-Last Supper". During this time, da Vinci's classmate, Leonardo da Vinci Mahoney, copied his master's ideas and signed Rooney's name on it. Rooney's painting is thought to be lost completely, and is worth, according to Howard, one hundred zillion dollars.

== Maitre Delish ==

'''Maitre Delish''' was a famous legendary chef. He made a [[Cookbook]], a book that could teach anyone how to be a perfect chef. He was mentioned in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''.  

One of the copies of his book is left in [[Creepy Steeple]] by an unknown person thought to have once lived there; Mario later finds this book ([[The Creepy Steeple Boo]] also helps him find the book [[Mailbox SP|via email]].) The book is not necessary to find in the overall plot of ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', although [[Zess T.]] requests the book for her [[Trouble Center|trouble]], and, if Mario completes it, she rewards him with a [[Honey Shroom]] and announces her newfound ability to cook two foods at once.

[[Wonky]] makes another reference to the chef saying that he once ate food made by him in [[Poshley Heights]], suggesting that he may have worked there in his lifetime. Maitre Delish is indeed thought to be dead, as Zess T. states that he existed "ages ago".

===Names in other languages===

|FraM=Nico Neat Toque

===Trivia===

*Maitre Delish's name is derived from "maître d'" (or "master of the hall") and "delicious". His name literally means "Master of the Delicious".

'''[[Merlumina]]'s sister''' was mentioned by Garson at The Underwhere bar in Flipside in ''Super Paper Mario''. He states that she was given the purple Pure Heart, which she had to deliver to [[King Sammer I]] in Sammer's Kingdom. However, according to Garson, she fell in love with the king, leading to the two having 100 children, which could possibly be the origin of the 100 Sammer Guys.

'''Minister Crepe''' is the one who sent Luigi the letter about the Waffle Kingdom's troubles in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''. He is mentioned by Luigi in the book series, ''Super Luigi''.

 

He is also the one who transformed the [[#Chestnut King|Chestnut King]] into a monster and he was the final boss Luigi faced. He set the whole thing up so Luigi could collect the Compass Pieces so Crepe could rule the world. In the end, he was defeated by Luigi using his hammer after Princess Eclair's compass piece showed him Crepe's every move. Although explicitly identified in the book, Luigi nonetheless implies something similar occurred in the version he told Mario by mentioning a shadowy figure fought him after he defeated the Chestnut King.

Once he arrived at the stronghold, he confronted the dark Pixl Queen herself, who immediately hid from the hero and shot a barrage of disturbing images to his mind telepathically. Although this greatly weakened the Ancient hero, one of his Pixls helped him through the tragedy and ended up defeating the Pixl Queen itself, although it was destroyed in the process of doing so. Afterwards, it was shockingly revealed to the hero who owned the Pixl that the Pixl Queen was the first created of the Pixls (perhaps created even earlier than the magician's so-called "original" twelve Pixls) and that the magician's motives for creating her involved the study of the Dark Prognosticus. The Ancient survivor, attempting to stop such a tragedy as the Pixl Uprising from ever happening again, then took the Dark Prognosticus with himself to unknown parts, likely founding the Tribe of Darkness known to once have possessed the dark book. Afterwards, the Pixl Queen's mutinous efforts led to the fall of the Tribe of Ancients and the outlawing of Pixl creation.

Though these are the only known actions of the seemingly late Pixl Queen, more is indeed known about the Pixl herself. Although the spirit united with the Pixl vessel that formed the Pixl Queen had previously been described as "demonic", Carson later stated that a certain one of the magician's apprentices books revealed that the Pixl Queen's spirit was actually derived from a [[human]] rather than a demon. It was on this principle that Carson theorized that the Pixl Queen's spirit may have been that of the magician's own daughter (who did indeed get a Game Over during her father's life due to a deathly illness), although he later seemed to have not been sure about this theory in his statement that the author disavowed it. It is also unknown if the Pixl Queen had any helpful ability, although she was indeed able to control all Pixls and used the power of {{wp|telepathy}} in her battle against the Ancient survivor, making these possible ability candidates.

'''Poopa La Koopa''' is the grandfather of [[Bowser|King Koopa]] who was briefly mentioned by him in ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'' episode "[[Butch Mario & the Luigi Kid]]". He is said to be a cheater and liar (his motto being "Cheat, beat an' be merry!").

===Trivia===

*Poopa's motto may be a pun on King Edward VII of Great Britain's since his is "Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we die!"

'''Prince Croacus''' was the deceased (euphemistically referred to as "wilted") prince of the Floro Sapiens in ''Super Paper Mario''. He was [[#Queen Croacus II|Queen Croacus the Second]]'s sibling, and was going to inherit the throne. However, he suddenly wilted in the year 444, which not only caused his death, but that of [[#King Croacus I|his father]] as well. Queen Croacus the Second took the throne in his place.

 

*Prince Croacus dying in 444 is an example of a common [[Japan]]ese (and Chinese) association of the number four with death, as the characters for "four" (四) and "death" (死) have similar readings (''shi'', in Japanese).

[[Princess Daisy]] mentions her father in ''[[Mario Party 3]]'', stating she has never lost to him, however not much else is known about him. She also mentions him in ''[[Fortune Street]]'', as she asks ''"Can my daddy put a little extra gold in my bank account?"''

'''Princess Eclair''' was the damsel-in-distress that Luigi rescued from the clutches of the monstrous [[#Chestnut King|Chestnut King]] in the Waffle Kingdom. However, as it turns out, the Chestnut King was actually Princess Eclair's lover, who had been turned into a monster by the sinister Minister Crepe. This story is told by Luigi when Mario talks to him throughout the events of ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''.

During Luigi's adventure, he fell in love with Princess Eclair. However, after he discovered that the Chestnut King was Princess Eclair's fiancee, Luigi lost the hope of ever forming a romantic relationship with the princess. Since Luigi embellished his stories so much, it is unknown whether any of it really happened as he described (or whether she even exists at all.)

She is also mentioned in Luigi's five-book series, called ''Super Luigi'', which is sold in Rogueport's shop during the events of ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''.
