As shown since the ''Super Mario Picture Books'', Ludwig is a conceited show-off, with the recent official bios also underlining his intelligence. In terms of physical appearance, his most notable traits are his large, wild, blue hair, his overbite on the upper snout from which a single tooth is protruding, and his eyebrows that are kept at a peculiar angle, conferring a serious, mature look. He resembles and was named after composer [[Ludwig van Beethoven]]. | ||
