==Gagarin==
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.

'''{{wp|Genghis Khan}}''' (Mongolian: '''ᠴᠢᠩᠭᠢᠰ ᠬᠠᠭᠠᠨ''', ''Chinggis Khagan'') (c. 1162 – August 1227), formatted in-game as "Ghengis Kahn," was a Mongolian military leader and politician known for founding the Mongol Empire, which went on to become the largest contingent empire in the world and the second-largest empire overall (behind the British Empire). In [[Mario is Missing! (PC)|the PC version of ''Mario is Missing!'']], he appears as one of the incorrect options for the question "The words of which leader are inscribed at the monument's base?", which Luigi must answer in order to return the stolen [[Monument to the People's Heroes]] to [[Tian An Men Square]].
'''Minister Crepe''' is a character mentioned by Luigi in his stories, as well as in the [[Super Luigi (series)|Super Luigi]] book series, in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''. He is a member of the Waffle Kingdom's government who sends Luigi a letter requesting that he come to the Waffle Kingdom to rescue its Princess Eclair from the [[Goomboss#Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door|Chestnut King]]. Upon Luigi's arrival to the Waffle Kingdom's castle, Crepe provides him with the base of the Marvelous Compass, requesting that he collect its seven missing pieces to help find Eclair.


==Green Bay Packers==
In Super Luigi 5, Crepe is revealed to have transformed the Chestnut King, Princess Eclair's true love, into a monster in a bid for the Waffle Kingdom throne. He is the final opponent that Luigi faces, after he reveals that he had Luigi collect the pieces of the Marvelous Compass so that Crepe could take it for himself and allow the Luff empire to rule again. In the end, he was defeated by Luigi using his hammer after the Marvelous Compass piece in Princess Eclair's tiara showed him Crepe's every move. Although Crepe is only explicitly identified as the true villain in the book, Luigi nonetheless implies something similar occurred when recounting his story to Mario by mentioning a shadowy figure stronger than the Chestnut King, which he fought after he defeated the Chestnut King.
The '''{{wp|Green Bay Packers}}''' are an American football team who, per their name, hail from the city of Green Bay in Wisconsin. They are notable for winning more championships than any other team in the National Football League, including the first two Super Bowls, as well as for their {{wp|Bears–Packers rivalry|longstanding rivalry}} with the Chicago Bears. In the ''[[Mario Party 7 Bon Voyage Quiz]]'', the Packers are the correct answer to the question "In Windmillville, what will you NOT find on this board?"

==Hadrian==
During Luigi's adventure, he fell in love with Princess Eclair.

In the ''[[Club Nintendo (German magazine)|Club Nintendo]]'' comic "[[Super Mario: Coole Klänge|Die Blume meines Herzens]]", [[Max Milliplatt|Milliplatt]]'s plan is to turn [[Mario]] into the new Heino.
'''Breadward''' is a [[Pixl]] that is 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, which she claims is made from "oats and lard". It is not known if Breadward actually exists, however.

==Herbert Hoover==
====Heronicus' Flopside Counterpart====
'''{{wp|Herbert Hoover|Herbert Clark Hoover}}''' (August 10, 1874 – October 20, 1964) was an American politician who served as President of the United States from 1929 to 1933. He is most known for his mishandling of the Great Depression, which resulted in him losing his reelection bid to Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1932. In the ''[[Mario Party 7 Bon Voyage Quiz]]'', "President Herbert Hoover" appears as an incorrect answer for the question "In [[Pyramid Park]], whose face is carved on the Sphinx?"
'''Heronicus' 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' 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 presumably died. Because of this, he and his partner retired out of depression. [[Flamm]] sells [[Map]]s left behind by Heronicus' Flopside Counterpart. His name is not mentioned at any point of the game nor is he even seen.


==Herod==
====King Croacus I====
'''{{wp|Herod I}}''' (Greek: '''Ἡρῴδης''', ''Hērṓidēs''; Hebrew: '''הוֹרְדוֹס''', ''Hōrəḏōs'') (c. 72 BCE – c. 4 BCE) was a Roman Jew who ruled as the king of Judea from around 37 BCE until his death in 4 BCE. He is best known for his role in the Gospel of Matthew, which claims that he ordered the mass slaughter of all male infants in and around Bethlehem to avert the prophecy of the newborn Jesus' ascension as the Jewish Messiah. Today, Biblical scholars consider this event a myth. In [[Mario is Missing! (PC)|the PC version of ''Mario is Missing!'']], Herod appears as one of the incorrect options for one of the questions that Luigi must answer in order to verify the legitimacy of the recovered Damascus Gate (though his name is misspelled "Herrod" in-game).

==Hulk Hogan==
====King Sammer I====
'''{{wp|Hulk Hogan|Terry Gene Bollea}}''' (August 11, 1953 - ), better known by his ring name, '''Hulk Hogan''', is a famous retired American wrestler. In the fifth installment of ''[[Super Mario Adventures]]'', [[Roy|Roy Koopa]] claimed that, "The Hulkster '''himself''' couldn't have stopped her!" when trying to explain why [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] had been able to escape him and the other [[Koopalings]].  The Hulkster was one of Hulk Hogan's nicknames as a wrestler.
'''King Sammer I''' was the first ruler of [[Sammer's Kingdom]] and an ancestor 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, the princes of the Sammer Kingdom.


==The Human Beinz==
====Legendary Pixl====
'''{{wp|The Human Beinz}}''' is an American rock band that was mentioned by Mario in ''Super Mario Bros.: Favorite Mushroom Party Hits!!!'' which comprised of Joe Markulin, (1946 -) John Belley, (1947 -) Mel Pachuta (1943 -), and Mike Tatman (1947 -) at the time. In the introduction to their song "{{wp|Nobody but Me (Isley Brothers song)|Nobody but Me}}", Mario mentions that they know who the geezer with the pizza, the mensch with the wrench, and the plumber that ain't no bummer is: nobody but Mario.
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. This Pixl also may have been [[Piccolo]], as she is found in the [[Flopside]] version of Heronicus's house.


==Inez Foxx==
====Merlumina's sister====
'''{{wp|Inez and Charlie Foxx|Inez Foxx}}''' (September 9, 1937 – August 25, 2022) was mentioned by Mario in ''Super Mario Bros.: Favorite Mushroom Party Hits!!!''. In the introduction to her song "Mockingbird", Mario mentions that that her brother, Charlie Foxx, and she were about to sing "Mockingbird," a song for [[Birdo]] lovers.
'''[[Merlumina]]'s sister''' is 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 be the origin of the 100 Sammer Guys.


==Ivan the Terrible==
====Pixl Queen====
'''{{wp|Ivan the Terrible|Ivan IV Vasilyevich}}''' (Иван IV Васильевич) (August 25, 1530 - March 28, 1584), better known as '''Ivan the Terrible''' (Иван Грозный), was a Russian Tsar. He was mentioned in the game ''Mario is Missing!'' as the one to commission the building of [[St. Basil's Cathedral]]. The game erroneously refers to him as {{wp|Ivan III of Russia|Ivan III}}. Ivan the Terrible is the father of [[List of implied people#Fyodor Ivanovich|Fyodor Ivanovich]], who was also mentioned in the same game.
The '''Pixl Queen''' is an unseen Pixl spoken of in ''Super Paper Mario''. This rebellious Pixl is only talked about in four of Carson's stories, though quite a bit is revealed about her in these.


==Jackie Chan==
Despite the Pixl Queen being the first Pixl ever created, she seemed to stay largely quiet for what is thought to be 1,000 years after the creation of the Pixls 3,000 years before the setting of ''Super Paper Mario''. However, seemingly long after the passing of her creator (the powerful magician who invented the process of Pixl-making), the Pixl Queen (then of an unknown name) finally rose into power, renaming herself with her only known name of "Pixl Queen." She then began to use her powers of mind control to manipulate all Pixls, causing them to eventually enslave most of the [[Tribe of Ancients]] (who were once their masters) in her name. However, the owners of the magician's twelve original Pixl creations managed to somehow escape this Pixl Uprising and started to fight against the rebellious Pixls, containing them within [[Catch Card]]s and healing them. In the end, only one of these heroic Ancients survived, and he traveled with only his Pixl friends to the Pixl Queen's [[castle]].
'''Fang Shilong''' (Chinese: '''房仕龍''' (Traditional) / '''房仕龙''' (Simplified); Pinyin: ''Fáng Shìlóng''; Jyutping: ''fong4 si6 lung4''; Wade–Giles: ''Fang Shih-lung'') (April 7, 1954 - ), better known as '''{{wp|Jackie Chan}}''' (Chinese: '''成龍''' (Traditional) / '''成龙''' (Simplified); Pinyin: ''Chéng Lóng''; Jyutping: ''sing4 lung4''; Wade–Giles: Ch'eng Lung; Yale: ''Sìhng Lùhng''), is a renowned Hong Kong actor and martial artist. In ''[[Welcome to Greedville]]'', he is referenced in the memo written by [[List of implied characters#Thaddeus P. Gradgrind|Thaddeus P. Gradgrind]], which can be found in the [[Welcome to Greedville#Pyramid Theater|Pyramid Theater]].


==James Cook==
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.
'''{{wp|James Cook}}''' (November 7, 1728 – February 14, 1779) was a British explorer notable for his multiple expeditions throughout the Pacific Ocean. In [[Mario is Missing! (PC)|the PC version of ''Mario is Missing!'']], Cook is mentioned in a pamphlet about the [[Sydney Harbor Bridge]], which states that he was the one who named Port Jackson.


==James Dean==
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.
'''{{wp|James Dean|James Byron Dean}}''' (February 8, 1931 - September 30, 1955) was an American actor. In the ''[[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' episode "[[Hooray for Holly-Kongo Bongo]]", [[Cranky Kong]] sings [[List of Donkey Kong Country (television series) songs#I'm Gonna Be a Star!|a song]] in which he states that he will be "admired like James Dean or [[List of implied characters#Mr. Bean|Mr. Bean]]."

==James K. Polk==
====Prince Croacus====
'''{{wp|James K. Polk|James Knox Polk}}''' (November 2, 1795 – June 15, 1849) was an American lawyer and politician who served as the eleventh president of the United States from 1845 to 1849. He is most notable for instigating the ascent of the United States on the international stage by settling the Oregon boundary dispute with Britian and overseeing the Mexican–American War, which led to the annexations of California, Texas, New Mexico, Utah, Nevada, and Arizona (plus areas that would later be incorporated into Colorado, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Wyoming). In the [[Mario Quiz Cards]], he is mentioned on the back of a card which asks "In which state would you find the Grand Ole Opry and Graceland?"
'''Prince Croacus''' was the deceased (euphemistically referred to as "wilted") prince of the Floro Sapiens in ''Super Paper Mario''. He was [[Queen Croacus II]]'s sibling, and was going to inherit the throne. However, he suddenly wilted in the year 444, leading to the mental decline, corruption, and eventual death of [[King Croacus I|his father]] as well. Queen Croacus the Second eventually took the throne in his place after the fall of Croacus I. 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).


==James Naismith==
====Queen Croacus II====
'''{{wp|James Naismith}}''' (November 6, 1861 – November 28, 1939) was a Canadian-American physician and sports coach best known for inventing basketball.

'''Rainbowzilla''' is an implied monster in ''Super Paper Mario''. [[Flint Cragley]] fought it before the events of the game. [[Hornfels]] and [[Monzo]] heard that tale 256 times. One of those times, they were apparently tied up by an unseen and unnamed creature. Its name is a portmanteau of "rainbow" and {{wp|Godzilla}}.

Both faiths additionally view him as the Jewish Messiah prophesied in the Hebrew Bible. In the [[Mario is Missing! (PC)|PC]] and [[Mario is Missing! (Super Nintendo Entertainment System)|SNES]] versions of ''Mario is Missing!'', Jesus is alluded to via the presence of the [[Christ the Redeemer Statue]], which is designed in an interpretation of his likeness which has been standard among Christians since around the fourth century CE. Jesus is also directly mentioned in the statue's accompanying pamphlet; like the artwork's name, the pamphlet refers to him with the title "{{wp|Christ (title)|Christ}}," which is used by Christians to acknowledge him as the Messiah. The statue (and with it, the interpretation of Jesus' likeness) additionally appears in the [[Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games (Nintendo 3DS)|3DS]] and [[Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games (Wii U)|Wii U]] versions of ''Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games'', as they take place in its home country of Brazil.
'''Tiptron Mk. II''' is mentioned as an apparent planned upgrade of [[Tiptron]], a partner of Mario in the game ''Super Paper Mario''. After Mario purchases Tiptron, [[Francis]] states he is going to make Tiptron Mk. II. Francis then orders [[Meowmaid]]s to bring him some [[List of implied items#Nibble-Ums|Nibble-Ums]] to fill his stomach while he works.

'''{{wp|Jim Nabors|James Thurston Nabors}}''' (June 12, 1930 - November 30, 2017) was an American actor and singer. During the events of "[[Captain Lou Is Missing]]", Russian members of the [[Lou Albano]] search team reported to [[Cyndi Lauper]] that "Comrade Louski" could not be found, and requested for her to send more 8-track tapes. When Mario heard the message, he suggested sending the Russians his Jim Nabors tapes.
'''King Shroomses''' was the ruler of a kingdom in the [[Scorching Sandpaper Desert]] mentioned in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]''.


==Joe DiMaggio==
It was said that [[Captain T. Ode]] stole the [[Super Marino|Submarine "Marino"]], and offered the submarine to King Shroomses in exchange for the king's crown. King Shroomses refused and arranged to have Captain T. Ode captured and frozen in a block of ice underneath Scorching Sandpaper Desert.

==Jomo Kenyatta==
===Legendary ramen master===
'''{{wp|Jomo Kenyatta}}''' (c. 1897 – August 22, 1978) was a Kenyan politician and activist who served as the first president of Kenya from 1964 until his death in 1978. In [[Mario is Missing! (PC)|the PC version of ''Mario is Missing!'']], he is mentioned in a pamphlet about the [[Kenyatta Conference Center]], of which he is the namesake. The pamphlet mistakenly refers to him as a "freedom fighter" despite the fact that he was not directly involved in armed combat.
A '''legendary ramen master''' was mentioned by [[Count Cannoli]] in the [[Special Episode Part 2|second special episode]] of ''[[Wario: Master of Disguise]]''. He created a secret ramen recipe that Cannoli wanted to obtain. The ingredients were hidden in [[Sneezemore Cave]], so Cannoli went there to retrieve them, expressing annoyance at the ramen master's choice to hide them in such a cold place. [[Wario]] arrives at the cave right after Cannoli and finds the ingredients first, but he realizes that he is unable to cook the ramen, so he is forced to have Cannoli cook it and share it with him.

He is best known as the primary military leader against Nazi Germany during the Eastern Front of World War II and as the namesake of Stalinism, an ultra-authoritarian interpretation of Marxist-Leninist communism which influenced the policies of multiple other Eastern Bloc states. In [[Mario is Missing! (PC)|the PC version of ''Mario is Missing!'']], Stalin (whose first name is given the alternate spelling "Josef") is mentioned in a pamphlet about the [[Moscow Metro]], which credits him with building the establishment. A scientist in [[Moscow]] additionally states that "Stalin ordered the Metro to begin service in 1935." Additionally, in [[Mario is Missing!

A self-described "hand model" and "finger actor", Handerson heavily implies to be the character that the hand seen in the microgames [[Butterfingers (microgame)|Butterfingers]] and [[Right in the Eye]] pertains to. Handerson claims the most difficult role they landed was catching a hot toast out of a toaster "15 years ago", referencing the Butterfingers microgame in ''[[WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!]]'', released 15 years before ''WarioWare Gold''. In ''WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!'', he was referred to as '''Baby Handerson'''.

[[File:GodoJyconsWWMI.png|thumb|Statue of the Voice from ''WarioWare: Move It!'']]
'''The Voice from above''', also known as simply '''the Voice''', is the deity of [[Caresaway Island]], the main setting of ''[[WarioWare: Move It!]]''. It bestowed the [[Form Stones]] upon the people of the island and taught them the Forms they could perform with them. Its appearance in statues is similar to [[Orbulon]]; in his stage in ''WarioWare: Move It!'', Orbulon is confused for the Voice and worshipped by the [[Woods Watchers]].


==Louis IX==
A statue of the Voice is also depicted on the title card for "Lava at First Sight", the stage for [[Volcano Wario]]; normally, the title cards would depict the character(s) that the stage belongs to. In this stage, [[Wario]] decides to ransack the shrine at [[Perspiration Peak Volcano]] of its treasures, starting with the same statue of the Voice depicted on the stage's title card. However, removing the Voice's statue of its place causes a hand of lava from a hole to drag Wario into it and merge him with the volcano.
'''{{wp|Louis IX of France}}''' (April 25, 1214 – August 25, 1270) was a French nobleman who ruled as King of France from 1226 until his death in 1270. In [[Mario is Missing! (PC)|the PC version of ''Mario is Missing!'']], he is mentioned in a pamphlet about the [[Cathedral of Notre Dame]], which describes it as his "big project."

'''{{wp|Louis XVI}}''' (August 23, 1754 – January 21, 1793) was the king of France from 1774 until his execution in 1793 during the French Revolution. He is most known for his support for the American Revolution and his mishandling of the financial crisis in his home country that followed, with the latter culminating in his deposition and the consequent end of the ''Ancien Régime'', the original dynastic monarchy of France. In the [[Mario Quiz Cards]], one card lists his death as one of the incorrect options for the question "What event marked the beginning of the French Revolution?" Louis XVI is also mentioned in the explanation of the correct answer provided on the back.

==Lyndon Johnson==
===''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]''===
'''{{wp|Lyndon B. Johnson|Lyndon Baines Johnson}}''' (August 27, 1908 – January 22, 1973) was an American politician who served as President of the United States from 1963 to 1969. He is best known for his domestic reforms, including the passage of the Civil Rights Act in 1964, and for the widespread protests he faced over his handling of US involvement in the Vietnam War, ultimately becoming the last incumbent president to withdraw from his reelection campaign until Joe Biden in 2024.<ref>{{cite|author=Scott Stump|date=July 23, 2024|title=How rare is it for a president to withdraw this late in the race?|url=https://www.today.com/news/politics/president-drop-out-campaign-history-rcna163012|publisher=Today|language=English|accessdate=September 10, 2024|archive=https://web.archive.org/web/20240806214447/https://www.today.com/news/politics/president-drop-out-campaign-history-rcna163012}}</ref><ref>{{cite|author=Michael Bartiromo|date=July 21, 2024|title=Biden is one of few presidents to end a reelection campaign: Who were the others?|url=https://www.conchovalleyhomepage.com/news/biden-is-one-of-few-presidents-to-end-a-reelection-campaign-who-were-the-others/|publisher=Concho Valley|language=English|accessdate=September 10, 2024|archive=https://web.archive.org/web/20240723042231/https://www.conchovalleyhomepage.com/news/biden-is-one-of-few-presidents-to-end-a-reelection-campaign-who-were-the-others/}}</ref> Johnson is mentioned on the back of one of the [[Mario Quiz Cards]], which asks players when the US began observing Mother's day. The card states that Johnson was the one who declared Father's Day a national holiday in 1966.
====Super Seadrings====
The '''Super Seadrings''' are a team of superheroes mentioned by [[Seatoon]] in ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team'', who mistakes Mario, Dreamy Luigi, and Prince Dreambert for the group. According to Seatoon, they are named Red Seadring, Green Seadring and Orange Seadring, have full beards, are always snacking on cheese, and protecting damsels in distress.


==Madonna==
====Watchoverer====
'''{{wp|Madonna|Madonna Louise Ciccone}}''' (August 16, 1958 -) is a famous American singer. During the events of "[[Fortune Teller]]", it was revealed that the first-place prize of the Big Time Celebrity Prize Sweepstake Giveaway was a night on the town with Madonna.
The '''Watchoverer''' is a deity revered by the [[Nommon]]s of [[Pi'illo Island]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]''. When [[Starlow]] assumed the Nommons revered the petrified [[Pi'illo]]s as deities, they corrected her by stating that they actually revere the Watchoverer and that the petrified Pi'illos are just their playthings. It is heavily implied that the Watchoverer is actually the [[Zeekeeper]].


==Malik==
===''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]''===
'''{{wp|Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan}}''' (Arabic: '''عَبْد الْمَلِك ٱبْن مَرْوَان ٱبْن الْحَكَم''') (7th century - October 9, 705), referred to in-game as '''Malik''', was the fifth Umayyad caliph, reigning from 685 until his death in 705. In [[Mario is Missing! (PC)|the PC version of ''Mario is Missing!'']], a pamphlet in [[Jerusalem]] states that he founded the Dome of the Rock in 691.
====Paper Koopalings====
:''For the Koopalings' appearance in Paper Mario: Color Splash, see [[History of the Koopalings#Paper Mario: Color Splash|Koopalings § Paper Mario: Color Splash]].''


==Manolete==
The '''Paper Koopalings''' are presumably paper versions of the Koopalings that were briefly mentioned in the game ''Mario and Luigi: Paper Jam''. At one point in the game, Roy questions about the existence of Paper Koopalings, but Wendy thinks that they are "busy back home", explaining their absence in the game.
'''Manuel Laureano Rodríguez Sánchez''' (July 4, 1917 – August 29, 1947), better known as '''{{wp|Manolete}}''', was a Spanish bullfighter widely considered one of the greatest of all time. In [[Mario is Missing! (PC)|the PC version of ''Mario is Missing!'']], Manolete is mentioned in a pamphlet about the [[Ventas Bullring]], which mentions his acclaim and fatal goring during one of his fights.


==Mao Zedong==
==''[[Mario Party (series)|Mario Party]]'' series==
'''{{wp|Mao Zedong}}''' (Chinese: '''毛澤東''' (Traditional) / '''毛泽东''' (Simplified); Pinyin: ''Máo Zédōng''; Jyutping: ''mou4 zaak6 dung1''; Wade–Giles: Mao Tse-tung; Yale: ''Mòuh Jaahk-dūng'') (December 26, 1893 - September 9, 1976) was a Chinese communist military and political leader, serving as the first head of state of the {{wp|China|People's Republic of China}} from 1949 until his death in 1976. He was mentioned in a pamphlet in the game ''Mario is Missing!'' as the one to {{wp|Proclamation of the People's Republic of China|announce}} the formation of the state in front of the [[Forbidden City|Gate of Heavenly Peace]] in 1949. Later, when Luigi tries to return the gate after it is stolen by the Koopa Troop, one of the questions he must answer to prove its legitimacy asks "Who built the heavenly gate?" Two of the incorrect options are both Mao Zedong – one option features this exact romanization, while the other uses the {{wp|Wade–Giles}} romanization that was commonly used within his lifetime, formatted in-game as "Mao Tse Tung."
===''[[Mario Party 3]]''===
====Princess Daisy's father====
[[File:Daisy's_father_KC_Mario.jpg|thumb|right|Daisy's father in ''[[Super Mario Land (manga)|Super Mario Land]]'']]
[[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?"''


==Marilyn Monroe==
Daisy's father also makes a brief appearance in the first volume of [[Super Mario (Kodansha manga)|KC Deluxe's manga]], where he beats Mario for taking fun at Tatanga's height, fearing for the alien's technology, immediately bowing to him.
'''{{wp|Marilyn Monroe}}''' (June 1, 1926 - August 4, 1962) was an American actress, singer and model. She is mentioned in the ''[[Nintendo Comics System]]'' comic "[[The Mario Bros. Guide to Grooming Your Moustache]]", where Luigi, showing Mario with a wavy mustache, says: "If Marilyn Monroe had grown a moustache, it would have looked like this."


Marilyn Monroe also appears as a puzzle in the original release of ''[[Mario's Super Picross]]''. In re-releases of the game, the puzzle is changed to a giant tortoise.
===''[[Mario Party Advance]]''===
====Britney====
'''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]].


==Martha Graham==
One of the few things known about Britney is that she surpasses the hero of ''Toad Force V'', [[Jack (character)|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.
'''{{wp|Martha Graham}}''' (May 11, 1894 – April 1, 1991) was an American dancer and choreographer best known for her substantial impact on the evolution of American dance. One entry in the [[Mario Quiz Cards]] asks players who Graham was, with the back of the card featuring a photo and short biography of her.


==Mary Pickford==
====Spore King====
'''Gladys Louise Smith''' (April 8, 1892 – May 29, 1979), better known by the stage name '''{{wp|Mary Pickford}}''', was a Candian-American actress known for her huge popularity during the silent movie era. In the [[Mario Quiz Cards]], she is mentioned on the back of one card which asks "When was the end of the silent movie era?"
The '''Spore King''' is the villain of ''[[Toad Force V]]'', a popular television program mentioned in ''Mario Party Advance''.


==Mehmet==
In all of ''Mario Party Advance'', only one reference is made to the Spore King. This single reference is made when selecting the "[[#Toxic Toad Z|Toxic Toad Z]] Figure." option at [[Junk]] during [[Lantern Ghost]]'s Nerd Force V mission. When this option is selected, [[Koopa Paratroopa|Paratroopa]] will proclaim the character a "hard-core fan" of ''Toad Force V'' and begin spilling out information regarding Toxic Toad Z; as he does this, he mentions the Spore King (who happens to own the robotic Toxic Toad Z) a few times. In these mentions, he describes how the Spore King, "outguns Toad Force V" and how he ruthlessly plagiarized his minion's design from plans stolen from a laboratory.
'''{{wp|Mehmed II}}''' (Ottoman Turkish: '''محمد ثانى''', ''Meḥmed-i s̱ānī''; Turkish: '''''II. Mehmed'''''), also known as '''Mehmed the Conqueror''' (Ottoman Turkish: '''ابو الفتح''', ''Ebū'l-fetḥ''; Turkish: '''''Fâtih Sultan Mehmed'''''), was a sultan of the Ottoman Empire, ruling from 1444 to 1446 and again from 1451 to 1481. In [[Mario is Missing! (PC)|the PC version of ''Mario is Missing!'']] (which spells his name as "'''Mehmet'''"), he is mentioned in a pamphlet as the one who built the [[Topkapi Museum]].


==Mel Gibson==
====Toxic Toad Z====
'''{{wp|Mel Gibson|Mel Columcille Gerard Gibson}}''' (January 3, 1956 - ) is a famous [[United States of America|American]] actor who passes through [[Brooklyn]] in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' live-action segment "[[Marianne and Luigeena]]." [[Marianne]] and [[Luigeena]] notice him while searching for [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]]. As a result, they quickly lose interest in [[Lyle Alzado]] and leave to track Mel Gibson back to his home. Lyle Alzado then grumbles about Mel Gibson stealing Marianne and Luigeena from him.
'''Toxic Toad Z''' is one of the handful of known characters from ''Toad Force V'' mentioned in ''Mario Party Advance''. Toxic Toad Z is a Toad-based robotic villain in the series, and the henchman of Toad Force V's arch-nemesis, the [[#Spore King|Spore King]].


==Merlin==
When Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, or Yoshi accept Lantern Ghost's Nerd Force V challenge, they are directed to go to Junk, Paratroopa's [[Item Shop|item shop]]. On this specific mission, Junk is up and running with two items: A "Toad Force V" figurine (actually one of Jack) and a figure of Toxic Toad Z. While selecting the Toad Force V figurine is the correct action for this mission, it does not hurt to select the one of Toxic Toad Z; such an action will result in Paratroopa revealing much about the Toxic Toad Z character.
'''{{wp|Merlin}}''' is a mythical magician who is featured in the legend of King Arthur. [[Kaptain Skurvy]] mentions him and his crystal ball in the ''[[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' episode "[[Bug a Boogie]]" during the song "[[List of Donkey Kong Country (television series) songs#The Booty Boogie|The Booty Boogie]]".


==Michael Collins==
Paratroopa seems to know quite a bit about him, though, and, for an unseen character, there actually is a notably large amount of known information about him. According to him, Toxic Toad Z fights with lasers and giant [[missile]]s, and his design was stolen (by the Spore King) from the Toad lab. Also, it apparently takes a "hard-core fan" to buy a figurine of Toxic Toad Z, presumably because he is a villainous (and possibly minor) henchman; despite this statement, Junk was all out of his figures at the time the player attempted to buy one, although they were apparently expecting a new shipment of them to arrive soon. Indeed, the game's ending sequence states that Paratroopa made a fortune by selling Toxic Toad Z figures, indicating that the shipment did eventually arrive sometime during the course of ''Mario Party Advance''.
'''{{wp|Michael Collins (astronaut)|Michael "Mike" Collins}}''' (October 31, 1930 – April 28, 2021) was an American astronaut best known as the third crew member in the Apollo 11 mission, which carried Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin to the [[Moon]] and allowed them to become the first humans to walk on its surface on July 21, 1969. Unlike Armstrong and Aldrin, Collins did not set foot on the lunar surface, as he had to continue piloting the command module so that the three of them could safely return to Earth. In the [[Mario Quiz Cards]], Collins is mentioned on the back of a card which tasks players with identifying the first men to walk on the moon; the card names him as one of the three men who piloted the Apollo 11 spacecraft (the card refers to the mission with the unconventional formatting "Apollo XI"; even official NASA iconography uses Arabic numerals for the mission's name rather than Roman ones).

Jackson makes a cameo appearance in the ''[[Club Nintendo]]'' comic [[Super Mario: Coole Klänge]] as one of the musicians waiting for an appointment with [[Max Milliplatt]].
==''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]''==
 
===Destiny Del Vecchio===

'''Destiny Del Vecchio''' is a character mentioned in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'' with whom Mario and Luigi went to high school. When Mario sees a news broadcast about a flood in Brooklyn, he sees it as a chance to save Brooklyn, saying, "''Luigi, this is our chance! Destiny is calling!''" This prompts Luigi to say, "''Destiny Del Vecchio from high school?''", mistakenly believing Mario is referring to her.
'''{{wp|Miguel de Cervantes|Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra}}''' (September 29, 1547 – April 22, 1616) was a Spanish writer best known for penning ''Don Quixote'', a satire of chivalric literature widely considered the first modern novel. In the [[Mario Quiz Cards]], one card tasks players with identifying Cervantes as the book's author.

Bluebeard Baboon is a pirate mentioned in the Donkey Kong Country TV series episode "The Curse of Kongo Bongo". One thousand years before 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. His name is a reference to Edward Teach, an infamous pirate better known as Blackbeard.

Bog Monster

The Bog Monster is an apparently horrific creature that, according to Klump, eats everything in sight. It resides in the Forbidden Forest on 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 is 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 this may not be an accurate description.

In the Donkey Kong Country episode "Bug a Boogie", it is revealed that Donkey Kong secretly feared the Bog Monster, as, when he was young, Cranky Kong told him that if he ventured into the Forbidden Forest, the Bog Monster would get him; one day, Donkey Kong disobeyed Cranky Kong and decided to go into the Forbidden Forest, only to encounter and subsequently be scared by a Bog Monster. It is later revealed to Donkey Kong by Cranky Kong that he had, in actuality, simply made up the story of the Bog Monster, and that it was him who scared Donkey Kong when he entered the Forbidden Forest, wanting to teach Donkey Kong a lesson in disobeying him.

It seems the Bog Monster may have been an actual creature, since, at the end of "Bug a Boogie", Klump and 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 talent of mimicking the roar of one, while Funky Kong apparently growls like one when he sleeps.

In the episode, Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong are fishing when they pull a letter in a bottle out of the ocean. This letter is from the Federation of Future Rulers, who have elected Monkey Kong as the future ruler of all future rulers for a five-year term beginning tomorrow. Donkey Kong misreads the letter and thinks it is addressed to himself, leading him to believe that he must leave Kongo Bongo Island. However, he reads it correctly at the end of the episode, prompting Cranky Kong to check himself and reveal that the letter was not addressed to Donkey Kong after all.

Quint Skurvy

Quint Skurvy was the great-great-great-grandfather of Kaptain Skurvy and General Klump. According to Kaptain Skurvy's father, Quint Skurvy was a fierce pirate who ruled the seven seas.

Cranberry

“Fear the curse, but find your Eclair.”
—Cranberry, Super Luigi 4

Cranberry is the last of the Luffs. He played a very short, but integral part in Luigi's adventure during the events of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.

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.

Cranberry is similar to Merlumina in many ways. Both are members of ancient civilizations who slept for unthinkable amounts of time awaiting heroes to accept the fragments of treasure they held.

During the battle that follows, Luigi manages to trick Hizza's two heads into eating each other, thus destroying the creature for all eternity as well as gaining a piece of the Marvelous Compass. As a result, the citizens of Plumpbelly Village no longer have to live in fear.

Upon Luigi's arrival to the Waffle Kingdom's castle, Crepe provides him with the base of the Marvelous Compass, requesting that he collect its seven missing pieces to help find Eclair.

In Super Luigi 5, Crepe is revealed to have transformed the Chestnut King, Princess Eclair's true love, into a monster in a bid for the Waffle Kingdom throne. He is the final opponent that Luigi faces, after he reveals that he had Luigi collect the pieces of the Marvelous Compass so that Crepe could take it for himself and allow the Luff empire to rule again. In the end, he was defeated by Luigi using his hammer after the Marvelous Compass piece in Princess Eclair's tiara showed him Crepe's every move. Although Crepe is only explicitly identified as the true villain in the book, Luigi nonetheless implies something similar occurred when recounting his story to Mario by mentioning a shadowy figure stronger than the Chestnut King, which he fought after he defeated the Chestnut King.

Princess Eclair

Princess Eclair was the damsel-in-distress that Luigi rescued from the clutches of the monstrous Chestnut King in the Waffle Kingdom.

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 fiancée, 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.

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 be the origin of the 100 Sammer Guys.

Pixl Queen

The Pixl Queen is an unseen Pixl spoken of in Super Paper Mario. This rebellious Pixl is only talked about in four of Carson's stories, though quite a bit is revealed about her in these.

Despite the Pixl Queen being the first Pixl ever created, she seemed to stay largely quiet for what is thought to be 1,000 years after the creation of the Pixls 3,000 years before the setting of Super Paper Mario. However, seemingly long after the passing of her creator (the powerful magician who invented the process of Pixl-making), the Pixl Queen (then of an unknown name) finally rose into power, renaming herself with her only known name of "Pixl Queen." She then began to use her powers of mind control to manipulate all Pixls, causing them to eventually enslave most of the Tribe of Ancients (who were once their masters) in her name. However, the owners of the magician's twelve original Pixl creations managed to somehow escape this Pixl Uprising and started to fight against the rebellious Pixls, containing them within Catch Cards and healing them. In the end, only one of these heroic Ancients survived, and he traveled with only his Pixl friends to the Pixl Queen's castle.

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 telepathy in her battle against the Ancient survivor, making these possible ability candidates.

Prince Croacus

Prince Croacus was the deceased (euphemistically referred to as "wilted") prince of the Floro Sapiens in Super Paper Mario. He was Queen Croacus II's sibling, and was going to inherit the throne. However, he suddenly wilted in the year 444, leading to the mental decline, corruption, and eventual death of his father as well. Queen Croacus the Second eventually took the throne in his place after the fall of Croacus I. Prince Croacus dying in 444 is an example of a common Japanese (and Chinese) association of the number four with death, as the characters for "four" (四) and "death" (死) have similar readings (shi, in Japanese).

The Cannoli clan

Goodstyle reveals his true form at the end of Episode 10 from Wario: Master of Disguise
The first family member of the Cannoli clan

The Cannoli clan is a family of thieves mentioned by Count Cannoli many times in Wario: Master of Disguise. They have been thieves for many generations. Count Cannoli and Goodstyle, who is actually the very first Cannoli, are the only family members seen in the game.

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.

James

James is reportedly the greatest thief who ever lived, according to the enemy glossary of Wario: Master of Disguise. Although he steals well, he is not very good at the "escaping" part. James is deceased, and his soul is inside the Sir Steal-A-Lot.

Legendary ramen master

A legendary ramen master was mentioned by Count Cannoli in the second special episode of Wario: Master of Disguise. He created a secret ramen recipe that Cannoli wanted to obtain. The ingredients were hidden in Sneezemore Cave, so Cannoli went there to retrieve them, expressing annoyance at the ramen master's choice to hide them in such a cold place. Wario arrives at the cave right after Cannoli and finds the ingredients first, but he realizes that he is unable to cook the ramen, so he is forced to have Cannoli cook it and share it with him.

Stuffy the 5th

Stuffy the 5th is the name of the never seen 5th king of the Dolphinian empire from Wario: Master of Disguise. He served a short, yet troubled reign, and a statue was built in his honor. The statue appears as an enemy in Blowhole Castle.

The Voice from above

Statue of the Voice from WarioWare: Move It!

The Voice from above, also known as simply the Voice, is the deity of Caresaway Island, the main setting of WarioWare: Move It!. It bestowed the Form Stones upon the people of the island and taught them the Forms they could perform with them. Its appearance in statues is similar to Orbulon; in his stage in WarioWare: Move It!, Orbulon is confused for the Voice and worshipped by the Woods Watchers.

A statue of the Voice is also depicted on the title card for "Lava at First Sight", the stage for Volcano Wario; normally, the title cards would depict the character(s) that the stage belongs to. In this stage, Wario decides to ransack the shrine at Perspiration Peak Volcano of its treasures, starting with the same statue of the Voice depicted on the stage's title card. However, removing the Voice's statue of its place causes a hand of lava from a hole to drag Wario into it and merge him with the volcano.

Mario & Luigi: Dream Team

Super Seadrings

The Super Seadrings are a team of superheroes mentioned by Seatoon in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, who mistakes Mario, Dreamy Luigi, and Prince Dreambert for the group. According to Seatoon, they are named Red Seadring, Green Seadring and Orange Seadring, have full beards, are always snacking on cheese, and protecting damsels in distress.

Watchoverer

The Watchoverer is a deity revered by the Nommons of Pi'illo Island in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team. When Starlow assumed the Nommons revered the petrified Pi'illos as deities, they corrected her by stating that they actually revere the Watchoverer and that the petrified Pi'illos are just their playthings. It is heavily implied that the Watchoverer is actually the Zeekeeper.

Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam

Paper Koopalings

For the Koopalings' appearance in Paper Mario: Color Splash, see Koopalings § Paper Mario: Color Splash.

The Paper Koopalings are presumably paper versions of the Koopalings that were briefly mentioned in the game Mario and Luigi: Paper Jam. At one point in the game, Roy questions about the existence of Paper Koopalings, but Wendy thinks that they are "busy back home", explaining their absence in the game.

Mario Party series

Mario Party 3

Princess Daisy's father

Daisy's father bowsing to Tatanga
Daisy's father in Super Mario Land

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?"

Daisy's father also makes a brief appearance in the first volume of KC Deluxe's manga, where he beats Mario for taking fun at Tatanga's height, fearing for the alien's technology, immediately bowing to him.

Mario Party Advance

Britney

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.

One 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.

Spore King

The Spore King is the villain of Toad Force V, a popular television program mentioned in Mario Party Advance.

In all of Mario Party Advance, only one reference is made to the Spore King. This single reference is made when selecting the "Toxic Toad Z Figure." option at Junk during Lantern Ghost's Nerd Force V mission. When this option is selected, Paratroopa will proclaim the character a "hard-core fan" of Toad Force V and begin spilling out information regarding Toxic Toad Z; as he does this, he mentions the Spore King (who happens to own the robotic Toxic Toad Z) a few times. In these mentions, he describes how the Spore King, "outguns Toad Force V" and how he ruthlessly plagiarized his minion's design from plans stolen from a laboratory.

Toxic Toad Z

Toxic Toad Z is one of the handful of known characters from Toad Force V mentioned in Mario Party Advance. Toxic Toad Z is a Toad-based robotic villain in the series, and the henchman of Toad Force V's arch-nemesis, the Spore King.

When Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, or Yoshi accept Lantern Ghost's Nerd Force V challenge, they are directed to go to Junk, Paratroopa's item shop. On this specific mission, Junk is up and running with two items: A "Toad Force V" figurine (actually one of Jack) and a figure of Toxic Toad Z. While selecting the Toad Force V figurine is the correct action for this mission, it does not hurt to select the one of Toxic Toad Z; such an action will result in Paratroopa revealing much about the Toxic Toad Z character.

Paratroopa seems to know quite a bit about him, though, and, for an unseen character, there actually is a notably large amount of known information about him. According to him, Toxic Toad Z fights with lasers and giant missiles, and his design was stolen (by the Spore King) from the Toad lab. Also, it apparently takes a "hard-core fan" to buy a figurine of Toxic Toad Z, presumably because he is a villainous (and possibly minor) henchman; despite this statement, Junk was all out of his figures at the time the player attempted to buy one, although they were apparently expecting a new shipment of them to arrive soon. Indeed, the game's ending sequence states that Paratroopa made a fortune by selling Toxic Toad Z figures, indicating that the shipment did eventually arrive sometime during the course of Mario Party Advance.

Many years before the game's events, he heard of Lucien's power and took it for himself, only for it to destroy his kingdom. However, King Bask managed to strip Lucien of its power, divided the power between the five Power Stones, and hid Lucien in a secret room in his temple.

Mario + Rabbids series

Tutanbwaaahmon

Tutanbwaaahmon is an ancient Rabbid figure in Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle. A parody of Tutankhamun, he is represented as a large statue in Sherbet Desert, donning stereotypical pharaoh garments such as a nemes, a false beard and a shendyt. His tomb is decorated with sarcophagi that depict his visage.

Telesio

Telesio is a descendant of the owners of the Winter Palace on Pristine Peaks in Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope. According to the Memory of the Winter Palace, he is a curator of the Winter Palace who restricts access to the library with an ingenious mechanism, most likely referring to the statues and constellation puzzle.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie

Destiny Del Vecchio

Destiny Del Vecchio is a character mentioned in The Super Mario Bros. Movie with whom Mario and Luigi went to high school. When Mario sees a news broadcast about a flood in Brooklyn, he sees it as a chance to save Brooklyn, saying, "Luigi, this is our chance! Destiny is calling!" This prompts Luigi to say, "Destiny Del Vecchio from high school?", mistakenly believing Mario is referring to her.
