Stars are a race of celestial beings who have played major roles throughout the Mario series. They live high above Mushroom World and are ruled by the Star Spirits.
History
Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
In Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, Geno is a Star being from Star Road who was sent by a "higher authority" to aid the Mushroom Kingdom in its hour of need against the Smithy Gang. He decided to join Mario on his quest to save the kingdom when he realized he could not do it alone. Although Geno is a type of Star being, it is unknown if he is directly related to the Star species.
Paper Mario
In Paper Mario, Stars are known to live in a city above Shooting Star Summit, called Star Haven where they are led by the Star Spirits. Stars begin their lives as Star Kids in Starborn Valley under the care of Merle and some Ninjis. Twink, a notable Star Kid aided Princess Peach while she was kidnapped by Bowser.
Super Mario Galaxy
Super Mario Galaxy features star-shaped beings, which are called Lumas. Lumas are protected and led by Princess Rosalina and reside on her Comet Observatory. Many Power Stars and Grand Stars are shown in the game and act as the source of power for the Comet Observatory and allow it to travel across the universe.
Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story
In Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, a species of Star known as Star Sprites appear. Unlike regular stars, Star Sprites have spherical yellow bodies with small feet and have stars perched on their heads. Only four members of this species are shown, the first being Starlow, who appears in the present time-line of the game, and the other three are elderly Star Sprites, who were shown in a flashback and were responsible for sealing away the evil Dark Star.
