'''Toadsworth''' is an elderly [[Toad (species)|Toad]] and [[Princess Peach]]'s longtime steward, introduced in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. He is 60 years old, according to [[Mailbox SP#RDM Issue 2|an e-mail]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. He is constantly worrying about the princess and takes care of the [[Toad (species)|Toads]]. He has an English accent and often utters old-fashioned English phrases like "Tally-ho!" and "Pip pip!", most of which made their debut in ''[[Mario Party 7]]''. Before Toadsworth's introduction in ''Super Mario Sunshine'', the [[Chancellor]] played a role very similar to his and was even similar in appearance.
==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario Sunshine''====
[[File:SMS Mario and Toadsworth converse.png|thumb|upright=1.1|left|Toadsworth along with Mario and Peach in ''Super Mario Sunshine'']]
Toadsworth's first appearance is in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' where he accompanies [[Mario]], [[Princess Peach]], and an entourage of [[Toad (species)|Toads]] to [[Isle Delfino]] for a vacation. While traveling there, he can be seen day dreaming about the relaxation that he can get at the island as well as about the roller coaster at [[Pinna Park]] that he is tempted to ride on, resulting in his ignoring Peach when she attempts to warn him of seeing [[Shadow Mario|a doppelganger]] of Mario in the background of the tour video for the island. However, upon arriving on the island's airstrip, he and the other vacationers find the small island covered with [[graffiti]] thanks to the mysterious fiend known as [[Shadow Mario]] (who eventually frames Mario of ruining the island).
After cleaning [[Delfino Airstrip]], Mario and the group are taken to a courthouse on the mainland, where Mario is put on trial for vandalizing Isle Delfino. The [[Pianta prosecutor|prosecutor]] explains that someone who looks like Mario covered the island with graffiti, and that he is to blame. Peach and Toadsworth attempt to object, but are overruled, and Mario is found guilty. He is then forced to clean the island, as well as find all the [[Shine Sprite]]s.
As Mario attempts to do so to clear his name, Toadsworth at first can be seen simply accompanying the Princess around the island. After she is kidnapped by [[Shadow Mario]] he can be found fretting and worrying in various locations. Often, he can be seen reminding Mario to go rescue the princess. After she is rescued, he and the other heroes can be seen finally enjoying the facilities at [[Isle Delfino]] as originally planned in the ending credits. Toadsworth presumably returns with the rest of the vacationers to the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] later on.
====''New Super Mario Bros.''====
[[File:ToadsworthNSMB.png|thumb|Toadsworth as the host of Toad House]]
[[File:4Toadsworthsoutsideatpeachcastle.jpg|thumb|left|Toadsworth models in the opening]]
Toadsworth replaces [[Toad]] as the host of [[Toad House]]s in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' He gives out items to Mario or Luigi by conjuring up a [[Roulette Block]] with his wand. Some of the Toad Houses also give out extra lives to the Mario Bros. by having them play a card match up game. However, most of these houses require Mario (or Luigi) to pay 5 [[Star Coin]]s in order to enter.
In the opening cutscene, multiple models of Toadsworth are used to create the illusion of Toads running around in a panic once the thundercloud strikes Peach's Castle.<ref>RiazorMC (October 21, 2017).

====''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' / ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions''====
[[File:ToadsworthSS.png|thumb|left|upright=0.95|Toadsworth and the others about to leave the Beanbean Kingdom]]
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', Toadsworth makes a brief appearance in the beginning of the game where he presents [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] with a [[Suitcase]] to take on their journey to the [[Beanbean Kingdom]]. Later he comes to the Beanbean Kingdom himself (along with [[Princess Peach]]). He also provides the Mario Bros. with a spare dress for the Princess just before they set off to Joke's End to rescue the Princess from Bowletta's clutches, anticipating the possibility that she might have damaged it in an attempt to escape. After a while, he spends his time with Peach in the Mushroom Embassy. He is shown near the end of the game to be good friends with [[Lady Lima]].
Toadsworth reprises his role in the game's remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]''.

Toadsworth also appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', playing a larger role in this game than in its predecessor. He is with Mario and Luigi when Princess Peach takes an experimental trip back in time, and is paranoid that something terrible might happen. He eventually faints from [[shroomshock]] due to his excess worrying for the princess, creating a comedic scene of Mario getting a [[refreshroom]] for the elderly Toad to feel better. His fears later become justified, as when the time machine returns, a [[Junior Shrooboid]] is in it. He is soon attacked by the Shrooboid though Mario and Luigi eventually defeat it. He is still confused when he wakes up and accidentally pushes Mario and Luigi into a time hole. He later teams up with his [[Toadsworth the Younger|younger self]] to teach the Bros. new moves (such as the Toadsworth Twist, Bros. Ball, etc.) and keep [[Baby Peach]] entertained while she stays in the future.
Toadsworth is indirectly responsible for sending Mario and Luigi into the past from the start, as he had accidentally knocked Luigi into a [[time hole]], causing Mario to go in after him. Near the end of the game, a [[Shroob]] character based on Toadsworth called [[Shroobsworth]] appears as a common enemy.
====''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'' / ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey''====
[[File:Toadworthml3.png|thumb|upright=1.1|left|[[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] find Toadsworth in the [[Pump Works]]]]
Toadsworth returns in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and its [[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey|Nintendo 3DS remake]]. He, along with many other Mushroom Kingdom residents, eventually get swallowed up by Bowser after [[Fawful]] tricks Bowser into eating the [[Vacuum Shroom]]. He is then found in [[Pump Works]] of [[Bowser's body]] where he must be rescued by the Mario Bros. Compared to the last game, his role is very small, appearing in various areas, mainly Toad Square. At first, he can often be seen sobbing for the Princess's well being after she is kidnapped by Fawful. After getting over the Princess's well being, and being assured that Mario and Luigi would save her, Toadsworth tries to stop moping and stay strong, and teaches the Mario Bros. about [[bean|beans]]. He is shown to be good friends with [[Toadbert]] as well. Toadbert and Toadsworth are seen having some tea together while waiting for [[Lumbar Nook|Bowser's back]] to heal.
{{br|left}}
====''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team''====
[[File:ToadsworthMLDT.png|frame|left]]
Toadsworth appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', where he, Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, and the Toads are invited to Pi'illo Island for sightseeing. His role is even smaller than in the previous games and is mainly used for comic relief (him worrying about Peach and getting annoyed when [[Dr. Snoozemore]] falls asleep).
===''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''===
[[File:Toadsworth PM2.png|thumb|Toadsworth in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'']]
Toadsworth accompanies [[Princess Peach]] on her trip to [[Rogueport]] during ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. He keeps Princess Peach very close to him, but ends up losing her. When [[Mario]] comes to Rogueport he meets a frantic Toadsworth who is incredibly worried about the missing Princess. Mario assures Toadsworth that he is going to save her, and Toadsworth spends the remainder of the game in Rogueport's [[Inn]]. In the ending he, the Mario Bros., and the Princess leave Rogueport on a boat as they head back to the Mushroom Kingdom.
The second RDM issue that Mario received stated that Toadsworth had frequently been seen with the cook [[Zess T.]] This issue of the RDM also reported that Zess T. said, "What's wrong with spending time with my little Toadle-toes?", referring to Toadsworth.
===''Mario Kart'' series===
====''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!''====
[[File:GPWinners-MKDD.png|thumb|left|Toadsworth driving in the Parade Kart]]
Toadsworth makes a cameo in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' Whenever two characters win a cup, he drives the [[Parade Kart]] that takes them to their trophy. The kart he drives, the Parade Kart, can also be used in the game. He can also be seen in the audience of [[Waluigi Stadium (GCN)|Waluigi Stadium]] alongside a green [[Toad (species)|Toad]] with a blue vest, [[Donkey Kong Jr.]], a [[Hammer Bro]], a red [[Shy Guy]], and a [[Boo]].
{{br|left}}
====''Mario Kart Arcade GP 2''====
While Toadsworth himself does not make an appearance in the arcade exclusive ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP 2]]'', he does receive a notable cameo in the Trick House section of the [[Yoshi Park 2]] course where large paper cut out figures of him as well as [[Toad]] and [[Toadette]] (done in the artwork style of the [[Yoshi (franchise)|''Yoshi'' franchise]] of games) can be seen near the entrance.
===''Mario Tennis'' series===
====''Mario Power Tennis'' / ''New Play Control! Mario Power Tennis''====
[[File:YOSHIPOWER.jpg|thumb|Toadsworth can be seen reffing a game in ''Mario Power Tennis'']]
Toadsworth is the umpire in ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'' and its ''[[New Play Control!]]'' version, where he sits on a high chair and watches characters play. He reminds "not to respond a serve before it bounced once", whenever it is done. During the opening cinematic, Toadsworth is seen at the upper barracks of the [[Peach Dome]] with Peach standing by his side during the night of the final match. After Toadsworth announces the remaining contenders, Mario and Luigi against Yoshi and Donkey Kong, Wario and Waluigi in league with Bowser arrive after Yoshi and Donkey Kong fail to show up, which catches Toadsworth off guard. Further turmoil ensues as explosives fly all over the venue, and Toadsworth catches a glimpse of a horde of explosives stowing aboard the underside of Bowser's balloon.

====''Mario Tennis: Power Tour''====
[[File:PowerShot.PNG|thumb|left|Toadsworth reffing a match in ''Mario Tennis: Power Tour'']]
Toadsworth appears in ''[[Mario Tennis: Power Tour]]'' where he, along with Mario, escort [[Clay]] and [[Ace]] to the Mushroom Kingdom on the [[Toad Express]]. He also acts as the umpire as in the previous game for matches taking place in the [[Peach Dome]].

}}
The [[Mario Baseball (series)|''Mario Baseball'' series]] is Toadsworth's first playable appearance. Toadsworth is a playable character in both ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'' and its sequel, ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]''. He is on [[Princess Peach]]'s team, the "[[Peach Monarchs]]". Throughout the two games, he uses a larger version of his cane as his bat, unlike the other playable Toad characters who use regular baseball bats. He is a very skillful fielder in both games and has a great pitch, but he doesn't hit for power, doesn't run fast, and has low stamina. Despite his good pitching stats, Toadsworth's pitches tend to move slower than what most Toads can pull off.
During the opening cinematic of ''Mario Super Sluggers'', Toadsworth is seen standing by Peach's side, greeting those who are about to arrive at the [[Baseball Kingdom]] on a yacht. In Challenge Mode, Toadsworth frequently worried about Peach's kidnapping and he constantly reminds the player to rescue her. He is first seen near a fountain that is later secured by the statue of [[Princess Daisy|Daisy]]. He watches over the statue, but eventually joins the team when Peach has been rescued. Toadsworth has good chemistry with Peach, Toad, Toadette, Baby Peach, and Pianta, while he has bad chemistry with Goomba, Paragoomba, and Bowser.
===''Mario Golf'' series===
A statue of Toadsworth appears in ''[[Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour]]'' on Hole 7 of [[Peach's Castle Grounds]], while Toadsworth himself physically appears in only ''[[Mario Golf: Advance Tour]]'' on Peach's Castle. A locker containing a fake moustache with his name on the back can also be found in a [[Marion Course|Marion Clubhouse]] locker room.
===''Yakuman DS''===
[[File:Toadsworth Unlockable - Yakuman DS.png|thumb|upright=0.8|Toadsworth being unlocked in ''Yakuman DS'']]
In ''[[Yakuman DS]]'', Toadsworth is the first-ranked and most difficult opponent. He can also be unlocked by beating him in the game. This is Toadsworth's only playable appearance outside of the ''Mario Baseball'' series.
===''Mario Party'' series===
[[File:PartyCruise - MarioParty7.png|thumb|left|Toadsworth as the host in ''Mario Party 7'']]
As a token of his appreciation for all that Mario and his friends have done for the Kingdom, Toadsworth organizes an extravagant cruise in traditional ''[[Mario Party (series)|Mario Party]]'' fashion in ''[[Mario Party 7]]''. He is also the host of the boards. However, the cruise is deterred by Bowser, who is furious about his exclusion from the guest list. Toadsworth also runs the [[Duty Free Shop]] in this game, where players can buy merchandise, view figures they purchased, listen to sounds, and view records. In the [[Neon Heights]] board, a cardboard cut-out of himself appears in the shooting game where if shot, the minigame ends and the player earns no coins.
In ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'', Toadsworth makes a cameo appearance in the Collection mode.
===''Super Princess Peach''===
Toadsworth reappears in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', where he is seen accompanying Princess Peach on her stroll while the Koopa Troop attacks Peach's Castle and captures the Mario Bros. As Peach sets off to rescue them, Toadsworth initially objects but then gives her the umbrella [[Perry]], whom he had bought from a shop before the events of the game, to accompany her. He is also a guitarist for the [[Peach Hit Five]].
===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
In the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]], there are several items of Toadsworth. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', there is a [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]] of him, as well as two [[Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|stickers]] of him, both of which can applied to any fighter in [[smashwiki:Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]]; one of the stickers, depicting Toadsworth's artwork from ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', boosts the attack power of its user by 10 points, while the other, depicting Toadsworth from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', increases the user's launch power by 5 points. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', there is another trophy of Toadsworth, unlockable by defeating at least eight fighters in [[smashwiki:Cruel Smash|Cruel Smash]]. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', Toadsworth appears as a Novice-class support [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]] which occupies one support slot, and players equipped with the spirit will start battles with a [[Ramblin' Evil Mushroom]]. The puppet fighter of the Toadsworth spirit is [[Mario]] on the [[Princess Peach's Castle (Super Smash Bros. Melee)|Princess Peach's Castle]] stage.
===''Fortune Street''===
{{quote2|Oh dear! I think I spent too much gold shopping here. Toadsworth will never let me live this down!|Toad|[[Fortune Street]]}}
While Toadsworth himself does not appear in ''[[Fortune Street]]'', [[Toad]] provides reference to him throughout the game through his quotations. It is implied that Toadsworth may have some authority over Toad as he appears to be frightened of what Toadsworth would think of his choices at times throughout the game. One of Princess Peach's quotes mentions him as well, where she states that she may need to turn to Toadsworth for financial advice.

''GoNintendo''. Retrieved April 23, 2023.</ref> The [[Toad General]] has a similar role to Toadsworth's in the final film.
==General information==
===Physical appearance===
Toadsworth is portrayed as an elderly Toad with a tan complexion and a beige cap with brown spots. He has a puffy, white mustache, although if the player looks in a locker in ''[[Mario Golf: Advance Tour]]'', they find a fake mustache labeled "Toadsworth", jokingly implying that his facial hair is {{wp|Fake moustache|fake}}. Like other Toads, Toadsworth is short and stout. Despite his age, he is quite energetic. He also speaks with a southern English accent.
He wears a light purple vest with gold buttons that have Toad emblems on them. Layered on top of the vest is a purple, sleeveless jacket that hangs down like a tuxedo with a gold trim. He wears white bottoms underneath and brown, padded shoes like those of all other Toads'. He also wears small, black round glasses and a red bow-tie. He walks around using a stick-like cane that has a brown mushroom cap on top with beige spots on it.
In his [[Toadsworth the Younger|younger form]], he has a brown mustache, small, curious-looking eyebrows, and the same mushroom cap. His attire is more similar to that of other Toads, being a red vest with a golden trim baring his chest, along with his red bow-tie.
===Personality===
Toadsworth is a kind character who tries his best to help others, particularly Princess Peach, whom he cares for very deeply, having had a hand in raising her since she was a baby. Toadsworth constantly worries about Peach when she has been kidnapped by [[Bowser]], and while Toadsworth is quick to panic and flee with the other Toads when danger arises, he sometimes tries to stay and protect the princess or offer advice to the Mario Bros. In ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', Toadsworth was originally hesitant to let Peach go to save Mario, out of fear for her safety. Toadsworth is known for addressing many other characters with the "Master" honorific due to his polite nature. Although kind overall, he does have his limits, as after the Shroob threat was over, he privately admits he's glad that his younger counterpart will be off his back, although denies claiming that when Toadsworth the Younger expresses suspicion of his true feelings toward him.
===Powers and abilities===
Toadsworth's cane appears to possess magical abilities, as in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', he could create [[? Block]]s with it. In addition, he is shown to be able to drive in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', but he has yet to be seen participating in a [[Mario Kart (series)|kart race]]. He is also skilled at playing mahjong, as seen in ''[[Yakuman DS]]'', where he is the highest ranked opponent.
==Relationship to Peach==
[[File:Mpt intro 2.png|thumb|upright=1.1|Toadsworth alongside Princess Peach in the intro of ''Mario Power Tennis'']]
There is much confusion surrounding Peach and Toadsworth's relationship. It is said on the official site for ''Super Mario Sunshine'' that he is Peach's father, which would make him [[Mushroom King]].{{ref needed}} The page for ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'' also says this.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20130118221831/http://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/c6e9969e-692f-47e1-b82a-8b765cc42fe5 "Bidden by Toadsworth, Peach's father, to find his daughter, the bros. travel to the Mushroom Kingdom of yesteryear by jumping through mysterious time holes which suddenly appear."]</ref> Nevertheless, it has been stated in games and game booklets that Toadsworth is Peach's attaché and thus is subordinate to her. Additionally, in ''Mario Superstar Baseball'', when naming all of the players on Peach's team, [[Lakitu]] says ''"And... your grandpa?! Oh, pardon me! Venerable Toadsworth!"'' While not made entirely clear, Lakitu may have at first been mistaken, but then corrected himself. Peach also addresses him as "Toadsworth" (not as "father" or "grandfather") in ''Super Mario Sunshine''. Regardless of his position, he cares deeply for the Princess, very much in a fatherly manner, and has taken care of her since she was a baby, similar to [[Kamek]] and [[Bowser]]'s relationship. They also have good chemistry with each other in the ''Mario Baseball'' series.

{{quote2|[[Mario|Master Mario]]! [[Luigi|Master Luigi]]! You must save [[Princess Peach]]!|Toadsworth|[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]}}
'''Toadsworth''' is an elderly [[Toad (species)|Toad]] and [[Princess Peach]]'s longtime steward, introduced in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. He is 60 years old, according to [[Mailbox SP#RDM Issue 2|an e-mail]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. He is constantly worrying about the princess and takes care of the [[Toad (species)|Toads]]. He has an English accent and often utters old-fashioned English phrases like "Tally-ho!" and "Pip pip!", most of which made their debut in ''[[Mario Party 7]]''. Before Toadsworth's introduction in ''Super Mario Sunshine'', the [[Chancellor]] played a role very similar to his and was even similar in appearance.
==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario Sunshine''====
[[File:SMS Mario and Toadsworth converse.png|thumb|upright=1.1|left|Toadsworth along with Mario and Peach in ''Super Mario Sunshine'']]
Toadsworth's first appearance is in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' where he accompanies [[Mario]], [[Princess Peach]], and an entourage of [[Toad (species)|Toads]] to [[Isle Delfino]] for a vacation. While traveling there, he can be seen day dreaming about the relaxation that he can get at the island as well as about the roller coaster at [[Pinna Park]] that he is tempted to ride on, resulting in his ignoring Peach when she attempts to warn him of seeing [[Shadow Mario|a doppelganger]] of Mario in the background of the tour video for the island. However, upon arriving on the island's airstrip, he and the other vacationers find the small island covered with [[graffiti]] thanks to the mysterious fiend known as [[Shadow Mario]] (who eventually frames Mario of ruining the island).
After cleaning [[Delfino Airstrip]], Mario and the group are taken to a courthouse on the mainland, where Mario is put on trial for vandalizing Isle Delfino. The [[Pianta prosecutor|prosecutor]] explains that someone who looks like Mario covered the island with graffiti, and that he is to blame. Peach and Toadsworth attempt to object, but are overruled, and Mario is found guilty. He is then forced to clean the island, as well as find all the [[Shine Sprite]]s.
As Mario attempts to do so to clear his name, Toadsworth at first can be seen simply accompanying the Princess around the island. After she is kidnapped by [[Shadow Mario]] he can be found fretting and worrying in various locations. Often, he can be seen reminding Mario to go rescue the princess. After she is rescued, he and the other heroes can be seen finally enjoying the facilities at [[Isle Delfino]] as originally planned in the ending credits. Toadsworth presumably returns with the rest of the vacationers to the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] later on.
====''New Super Mario Bros.''====
[[File:ToadsworthNSMB.png|thumb|Toadsworth as the host of Toad House]]
[[File:4Toadsworthsoutsideatpeachcastle.jpg|thumb|left|Toadsworth models in the opening]]
Toadsworth replaces [[Toad]] as the host of [[Toad House]]s in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' He gives out items to Mario or Luigi by conjuring up a [[Roulette Block]] with his wand. Some of the Toad Houses also give out extra lives to the Mario Bros. by having them play a card match up game. However, most of these houses require Mario (or Luigi) to pay 5 [[Star Coin]]s in order to enter.
In the opening cutscene, multiple models of Toadsworth are used to create the illusion of Toads running around in a panic once the thundercloud strikes Peach's Castle.<ref>RiazorMC (October 21, 2017).

===''Mario & Luigi'' series===
====''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' / ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions''====
[[File:ToadsworthSS.png|thumb|left|upright=0.95|Toadsworth and the others about to leave the Beanbean Kingdom]]
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', Toadsworth makes a brief appearance in the beginning of the game where he presents [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] with a [[Suitcase]] to take on their journey to the [[Beanbean Kingdom]]. Later he comes to the Beanbean Kingdom himself (along with [[Princess Peach]]). He also provides the Mario Bros. with a spare dress for the Princess just before they set off to Joke's End to rescue the Princess from Bowletta's clutches, anticipating the possibility that she might have damaged it in an attempt to escape. After a while, he spends his time with Peach in the Mushroom Embassy. He is shown near the end of the game to be good friends with [[Lady Lima]].
Toadsworth reprises his role in the game's remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]''.

Toadsworth also appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', playing a larger role in this game than in its predecessor. He is with Mario and Luigi when Princess Peach takes an experimental trip back in time, and is paranoid that something terrible might happen. He eventually faints from [[shroomshock]] due to his excess worrying for the princess, creating a comedic scene of Mario getting a [[refreshroom]] for the elderly Toad to feel better. His fears later become justified, as when the time machine returns, a [[Junior Shrooboid]] is in it. He is soon attacked by the Shrooboid though Mario and Luigi eventually defeat it. He is still confused when he wakes up and accidentally pushes Mario and Luigi into a time hole. He later teams up with his [[Toadsworth the Younger|younger self]] to teach the Bros. new moves (such as the Toadsworth Twist, Bros. Ball, etc.) and keep [[Baby Peach]] entertained while she stays in the future.
Toadsworth is indirectly responsible for sending Mario and Luigi into the past from the start, as he had accidentally knocked Luigi into a [[time hole]], causing Mario to go in after him. Near the end of the game, a [[Shroob]] character based on Toadsworth called [[Shroobsworth]] appears as a common enemy.
====''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'' / ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey''====
[[File:Toadworthml3.png|thumb|upright=1.1|left|[[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] find Toadsworth in the [[Pump Works]]]]
Toadsworth returns in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and its [[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey|Nintendo 3DS remake]]. He, along with many other Mushroom Kingdom residents, eventually get swallowed up by Bowser after [[Fawful]] tricks Bowser into eating the [[Vacuum Shroom]]. He is then found in [[Pump Works]] of [[Bowser's body]] where he must be rescued by the Mario Bros. Compared to the last game, his role is very small, appearing in various areas, mainly Toad Square. At first, he can often be seen sobbing for the Princess's well being after she is kidnapped by Fawful. After getting over the Princess's well being, and being assured that Mario and Luigi would save her, Toadsworth tries to stop moping and stay strong, and teaches the Mario Bros. about [[bean|beans]]. He is shown to be good friends with [[Toadbert]] as well. Toadbert and Toadsworth are seen having some tea together while waiting for [[Lumbar Nook|Bowser's back]] to heal.
{{br|left}}
====''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team''====
[[File:ToadsworthMLDT.png|frame|left]]
Toadsworth appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', where he, Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, and the Toads are invited to Pi'illo Island for sightseeing. His role is even smaller than in the previous games and is mainly used for comic relief (him worrying about Peach and getting annoyed when [[Dr. Snoozemore]] falls asleep).
===''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''===
[[File:Toadsworth PM2.png|thumb|Toadsworth in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'']]
Toadsworth accompanies [[Princess Peach]] on her trip to [[Rogueport]] during ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. He keeps Princess Peach very close to him, but ends up losing her. When [[Mario]] comes to Rogueport he meets a frantic Toadsworth who is incredibly worried about the missing Princess. Mario assures Toadsworth that he is going to save her, and Toadsworth spends the remainder of the game in Rogueport's [[Inn]]. In the ending he, the Mario Bros., and the Princess leave Rogueport on a boat as they head back to the Mushroom Kingdom.
The second RDM issue that Mario received stated that Toadsworth had frequently been seen with the cook [[Zess T.]] This issue of the RDM also reported that Zess T. said, "What's wrong with spending time with my little Toadle-toes?", referring to Toadsworth.
===''Mario Kart'' series===
====''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!''====
[[File:GPWinners-MKDD.png|thumb|left|Toadsworth driving in the Parade Kart]]
Toadsworth makes a cameo in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' Whenever two characters win a cup, he drives the [[Parade Kart]] that takes them to their trophy. The kart he drives, the Parade Kart, can also be used in the game. He can also be seen in the audience of [[Waluigi Stadium (GCN)|Waluigi Stadium]] alongside a green [[Toad (species)|Toad]] with a blue vest, [[Donkey Kong Jr.]], a [[Hammer Bro]], a red [[Shy Guy]], and a [[Boo]].
{{br|left}}
====''Mario Kart Arcade GP 2''====
While Toadsworth himself does not make an appearance in the arcade exclusive ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP 2]]'', he does receive a notable cameo in the Trick House section of the [[Yoshi Park 2]] course where large paper cut out figures of him as well as [[Toad]] and [[Toadette]] (done in the artwork style of the [[Yoshi (franchise)|''Yoshi'' franchise]] of games) can be seen near the entrance.
===''Mario Tennis'' series===
====''Mario Power Tennis'' / ''New Play Control! Mario Power Tennis''====
[[File:YOSHIPOWER.jpg|thumb|Toadsworth can be seen reffing a game in ''Mario Power Tennis'']]
Toadsworth is the umpire in ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'' and its ''[[New Play Control!]]'' version, where he sits on a high chair and watches characters play. He reminds "not to respond a serve before it bounced once", whenever it is done. During the opening cinematic, Toadsworth is seen at the upper barracks of the [[Peach Dome]] with Peach standing by his side during the night of the final match. After Toadsworth announces the remaining contenders, Mario and Luigi against Yoshi and Donkey Kong, Wario and Waluigi in league with Bowser arrive after Yoshi and Donkey Kong fail to show up, which catches Toadsworth off guard. Further turmoil ensues as explosives fly all over the venue, and Toadsworth catches a glimpse of a horde of explosives stowing aboard the underside of Bowser's balloon.

Toadsworth appears in ''[[Mario Tennis: Power Tour]]'' where he, along with Mario, escort [[Clay]] and [[Ace]] to the Mushroom Kingdom on the [[Toad Express]]. He also acts as the umpire as in the previous game for matches taking place in the [[Peach Dome]].

}}
The [[Mario Baseball (series)|''Mario Baseball'' series]] is Toadsworth's first playable appearance. Toadsworth is a playable character in both ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'' and its sequel, ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]''. He is on [[Princess Peach]]'s team, the "[[Peach Monarchs]]". Throughout the two games, he uses a larger version of his cane as his bat, unlike the other playable Toad characters who use regular baseball bats. He is a very skillful fielder in both games and has a great pitch, but he doesn't hit for power, doesn't run fast, and has low stamina. Despite his good pitching stats, Toadsworth's pitches tend to move slower than what most Toads can pull off.
During the opening cinematic of ''Mario Super Sluggers'', Toadsworth is seen standing by Peach's side, greeting those who are about to arrive at the [[Baseball Kingdom]] on a yacht. In Challenge Mode, Toadsworth frequently worried about Peach's kidnapping and he constantly reminds the player to rescue her. He is first seen near a fountain that is later secured by the statue of [[Princess Daisy|Daisy]]. He watches over the statue, but eventually joins the team when Peach has been rescued. Toadsworth has good chemistry with Peach, Toad, Toadette, Baby Peach, and Pianta, while he has bad chemistry with Goomba, Paragoomba, and Bowser.
===''Mario Golf'' series===
A statue of Toadsworth appears in ''[[Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour]]'' on Hole 7 of [[Peach's Castle Grounds]], while Toadsworth himself physically appears in only ''[[Mario Golf: Advance Tour]]'' on Peach's Castle. A locker containing a fake moustache with his name on the back can also be found in a [[Marion Course|Marion Clubhouse]] locker room.
===''Yakuman DS''===
[[File:Toadsworth Unlockable - Yakuman DS.png|thumb|upright=0.8|Toadsworth being unlocked in ''Yakuman DS'']]
In ''[[Yakuman DS]]'', Toadsworth is the first-ranked and most difficult opponent. He can also be unlocked by beating him in the game. This is Toadsworth's only playable appearance outside of the ''Mario Baseball'' series.
===''Mario Party'' series===
[[File:PartyCruise - MarioParty7.png|thumb|left|Toadsworth as the host in ''Mario Party 7'']]
As a token of his appreciation for all that Mario and his friends have done for the Kingdom, Toadsworth organizes an extravagant cruise in traditional ''[[Mario Party (series)|Mario Party]]'' fashion in ''[[Mario Party 7]]''. He is also the host of the boards. However, the cruise is deterred by Bowser, who is furious about his exclusion from the guest list. Toadsworth also runs the [[Duty Free Shop]] in this game, where players can buy merchandise, view figures they purchased, listen to sounds, and view records. In the [[Neon Heights]] board, a cardboard cut-out of himself appears in the shooting game where if shot, the minigame ends and the player earns no coins.
In ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'', Toadsworth makes a cameo appearance in the Collection mode.
===''Super Princess Peach''===
Toadsworth reappears in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', where he is seen accompanying Princess Peach on her stroll while the Koopa Troop attacks Peach's Castle and captures the Mario Bros. As Peach sets off to rescue them, Toadsworth initially objects but then gives her the umbrella [[Perry]], whom he had bought from a shop before the events of the game, to accompany her. He is also a guitarist for the [[Peach Hit Five]].
===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
In the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]], there are several items of Toadsworth. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', there is a [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]] of him, as well as two [[Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|stickers]] of him, both of which can applied to any fighter in [[smashwiki:Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]]; one of the stickers, depicting Toadsworth's artwork from ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', boosts the attack power of its user by 10 points, while the other, depicting Toadsworth from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', increases the user's launch power by 5 points. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', there is another trophy of Toadsworth, unlockable by defeating at least eight fighters in [[smashwiki:Cruel Smash|Cruel Smash]]. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', Toadsworth appears as a Novice-class support [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]] which occupies one support slot, and players equipped with the spirit will start battles with a [[Ramblin' Evil Mushroom]]. The puppet fighter of the Toadsworth spirit is [[Mario]] on the [[Princess Peach's Castle (Super Smash Bros. Melee)|Princess Peach's Castle]] stage.
===''Fortune Street''===
{{quote2|Oh dear! I think I spent too much gold shopping here. Toadsworth will never let me live this down!|Toad|[[Fortune Street]]}}
While Toadsworth himself does not appear in ''[[Fortune Street]]'', [[Toad]] provides reference to him throughout the game through his quotations. It is implied that Toadsworth may have some authority over Toad as he appears to be frightened of what Toadsworth would think of his choices at times throughout the game. One of Princess Peach's quotes mentions him as well, where she states that she may need to turn to Toadsworth for financial advice.

''GoNintendo''. Retrieved April 23, 2023.</ref> The [[Toad General]] has a similar role to Toadsworth's in the final film.
==General information==
===Physical appearance===
Toadsworth is portrayed as an elderly Toad with a tan complexion and a beige cap with brown spots. He has a puffy, white mustache, although if the player looks in a locker in ''[[Mario Golf: Advance Tour]]'', they find a fake mustache labeled "Toadsworth", jokingly implying that his facial hair is {{wp|Fake moustache|fake}}. Like other Toads, Toadsworth is short and stout. Despite his age, he is quite energetic. He also speaks with a southern English accent.
He wears a light purple vest with gold buttons that have Toad emblems on them. Layered on top of the vest is a purple, sleeveless jacket that hangs down like a tuxedo with a gold trim. He wears white bottoms underneath and brown, padded shoes like those of all other Toads'. He also wears small, black round glasses and a red bow-tie. He walks around using a stick-like cane that has a brown mushroom cap on top with beige spots on it.
In his [[Toadsworth the Younger|younger form]], he has a brown mustache, small, curious-looking eyebrows, and the same mushroom cap. His attire is more similar to that of other Toads, being a red vest with a golden trim baring his chest, along with his red bow-tie.
===Personality===
Toadsworth is a kind character who tries his best to help others, particularly Princess Peach, whom he cares for very deeply, having had a hand in raising her since she was a baby. Toadsworth constantly worries about Peach when she has been kidnapped by [[Bowser]], and while Toadsworth is quick to panic and flee with the other Toads when danger arises, he sometimes tries to stay and protect the princess or offer advice to the Mario Bros. In ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', Toadsworth was originally hesitant to let Peach go to save Mario, out of fear for her safety. Toadsworth is known for addressing many other characters with the "Master" honorific due to his polite nature. Although kind overall, he does have his limits, as after the Shroob threat was over, he privately admits he's glad that his younger counterpart will be off his back, although denies claiming that when Toadsworth the Younger expresses suspicion of his true feelings toward him.
===Powers and abilities===
Toadsworth's cane appears to possess magical abilities, as in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', he could create [[? Block]]s with it. In addition, he is shown to be able to drive in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', but he has yet to be seen participating in a [[Mario Kart (series)|kart race]]. He is also skilled at playing mahjong, as seen in ''[[Yakuman DS]]'', where he is the highest ranked opponent.
==Relationship to Peach==
[[File:Mpt intro 2.png|thumb|upright=1.1|Toadsworth alongside Princess Peach in the intro of ''Mario Power Tennis'']]
There is much confusion surrounding Peach and Toadsworth's relationship. It is said on the official site for ''Super Mario Sunshine'' that he is Peach's father, which would make him [[Mushroom King]].{{ref needed}} The page for ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'' also says this.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20130118221831/http://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/c6e9969e-692f-47e1-b82a-8b765cc42fe5 "Bidden by Toadsworth, Peach's father, to find his daughter, the bros. travel to the Mushroom Kingdom of yesteryear by jumping through mysterious time holes which suddenly appear."]</ref> Nevertheless, it has been stated in games and game booklets that Toadsworth is Peach's attaché and thus is subordinate to her. Additionally, in ''Mario Superstar Baseball'', when naming all of the players on Peach's team, [[Lakitu]] says ''"And... your grandpa?! Oh, pardon me! Venerable Toadsworth!"'' While not made entirely clear, Lakitu may have at first been mistaken, but then corrected himself. Peach also addresses him as "Toadsworth" (not as "father" or "grandfather") in ''Super Mario Sunshine''. Regardless of his position, he cares deeply for the Princess, very much in a fatherly manner, and has taken care of her since she was a baby, similar to [[Kamek]] and [[Bowser]]'s relationship. They also have good chemistry with each other in the ''Mario Baseball'' series.

{{quote2|[[Mario|Master Mario]]! [[Luigi|Master Luigi]]! You must save [[Princess Peach]]!|Toadsworth|[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]}}
'''Toadsworth''' is an elderly [[Toad (species)|Toad]] and [[Princess Peach]]'s longtime steward, introduced in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. He is 60 years old, according to [[Mailbox SP#RDM Issue 2|an e-mail]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. He is constantly worrying about the princess and takes care of the [[Toad (species)|Toads]]. He has an English accent and often utters old-fashioned English phrases like "Tally-ho!" and "Pip pip!", most of which made their debut in ''[[Mario Party 7]]''. Before Toadsworth's introduction in ''Super Mario Sunshine'', the [[Chancellor]] played a role very similar to his and was even similar in appearance.
==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario Sunshine''====
[[File:SMS Mario and Toadsworth converse.png|thumb|upright=1.1|left|Toadsworth along with Mario and Peach in ''Super Mario Sunshine'']]
Toadsworth's first appearance is in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' where he accompanies [[Mario]], [[Princess Peach]], and an entourage of [[Toad (species)|Toads]] to [[Isle Delfino]] for a vacation. While traveling there, he can be seen day dreaming about the relaxation that he can get at the island as well as about the roller coaster at [[Pinna Park]] that he is tempted to ride on, resulting in his ignoring Peach when she attempts to warn him of seeing [[Shadow Mario|a doppelganger]] of Mario in the background of the tour video for the island. However, upon arriving on the island's airstrip, he and the other vacationers find the small island covered with [[graffiti]] thanks to the mysterious fiend known as [[Shadow Mario]] (who eventually frames Mario of ruining the island).
After cleaning [[Delfino Airstrip]], Mario and the group are taken to a courthouse on the mainland, where Mario is put on trial for vandalizing Isle Delfino. The [[Pianta prosecutor|prosecutor]] explains that someone who looks like Mario covered the island with graffiti, and that he is to blame. Peach and Toadsworth attempt to object, but are overruled, and Mario is found guilty. He is then forced to clean the island, as well as find all the [[Shine Sprite]]s.
As Mario attempts to do so to clear his name, Toadsworth at first can be seen simply accompanying the Princess around the island. After she is kidnapped by [[Shadow Mario]] he can be found fretting and worrying in various locations. Often, he can be seen reminding Mario to go rescue the princess. After she is rescued, he and the other heroes can be seen finally enjoying the facilities at [[Isle Delfino]] as originally planned in the ending credits. Toadsworth presumably returns with the rest of the vacationers to the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] later on.
====''New Super Mario Bros.''====
[[File:ToadsworthNSMB.png|thumb|Toadsworth as the host of Toad House]]
[[File:4Toadsworthsoutsideatpeachcastle.jpg|thumb|left|Toadsworth models in the opening]]
Toadsworth replaces [[Toad]] as the host of [[Toad House]]s in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' He gives out items to Mario or Luigi by conjuring up a [[Roulette Block]] with his wand. Some of the Toad Houses also give out extra lives to the Mario Bros. by having them play a card match up game. However, most of these houses require Mario (or Luigi) to pay 5 [[Star Coin]]s in order to enter.
In the opening cutscene, multiple models of Toadsworth are used to create the illusion of Toads running around in a panic once the thundercloud strikes Peach's Castle.<ref>RiazorMC (October 21, 2017).

[[File:ToadsworthSS.png|thumb|left|upright=0.95|Toadsworth and the others about to leave the Beanbean Kingdom]]
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', Toadsworth makes a brief appearance in the beginning of the game where he presents [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] with a [[Suitcase]] to take on their journey to the [[Beanbean Kingdom]]. Later he comes to the Beanbean Kingdom himself (along with [[Princess Peach]]). He also provides the Mario Bros. with a spare dress for the Princess just before they set off to Joke's End to rescue the Princess from Bowletta's clutches, anticipating the possibility that she might have damaged it in an attempt to escape. After a while, he spends his time with Peach in the Mushroom Embassy. He is shown near the end of the game to be good friends with [[Lady Lima]].
Toadsworth reprises his role in the game's remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]''.

Toadsworth also appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', playing a larger role in this game than in its predecessor. He is with Mario and Luigi when Princess Peach takes an experimental trip back in time, and is paranoid that something terrible might happen. He eventually faints from [[shroomshock]] due to his excess worrying for the princess, creating a comedic scene of Mario getting a [[refreshroom]] for the elderly Toad to feel better. His fears later become justified, as when the time machine returns, a [[Junior Shrooboid]] is in it. He is soon attacked by the Shrooboid though Mario and Luigi eventually defeat it. He is still confused when he wakes up and accidentally pushes Mario and Luigi into a time hole. He later teams up with his [[Toadsworth the Younger|younger self]] to teach the Bros. new moves (such as the Toadsworth Twist, Bros. Ball, etc.) and keep [[Baby Peach]] entertained while she stays in the future.
Toadsworth is indirectly responsible for sending Mario and Luigi into the past from the start, as he had accidentally knocked Luigi into a [[time hole]], causing Mario to go in after him. Near the end of the game, a [[Shroob]] character based on Toadsworth called [[Shroobsworth]] appears as a common enemy.
====''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'' / ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey''====
[[File:Toadworthml3.png|thumb|upright=1.1|left|[[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] find Toadsworth in the [[Pump Works]]]]
Toadsworth returns in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and its [[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey|Nintendo 3DS remake]]. He, along with many other Mushroom Kingdom residents, eventually get swallowed up by Bowser after [[Fawful]] tricks Bowser into eating the [[Vacuum Shroom]]. He is then found in [[Pump Works]] of [[Bowser's body]] where he must be rescued by the Mario Bros. Compared to the last game, his role is very small, appearing in various areas, mainly Toad Square. At first, he can often be seen sobbing for the Princess's well being after she is kidnapped by Fawful. After getting over the Princess's well being, and being assured that Mario and Luigi would save her, Toadsworth tries to stop moping and stay strong, and teaches the Mario Bros. about [[bean|beans]]. He is shown to be good friends with [[Toadbert]] as well. Toadbert and Toadsworth are seen having some tea together while waiting for [[Lumbar Nook|Bowser's back]] to heal.
{{br|left}}
====''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team''====
[[File:ToadsworthMLDT.png|frame|left]]
Toadsworth appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', where he, Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, and the Toads are invited to Pi'illo Island for sightseeing. His role is even smaller than in the previous games and is mainly used for comic relief (him worrying about Peach and getting annoyed when [[Dr. Snoozemore]] falls asleep).
===''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''===
[[File:Toadsworth PM2.png|thumb|Toadsworth in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'']]
Toadsworth accompanies [[Princess Peach]] on her trip to [[Rogueport]] during ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. He keeps Princess Peach very close to him, but ends up losing her. When [[Mario]] comes to Rogueport he meets a frantic Toadsworth who is incredibly worried about the missing Princess. Mario assures Toadsworth that he is going to save her, and Toadsworth spends the remainder of the game in Rogueport's [[Inn]]. In the ending he, the Mario Bros., and the Princess leave Rogueport on a boat as they head back to the Mushroom Kingdom.
The second RDM issue that Mario received stated that Toadsworth had frequently been seen with the cook [[Zess T.]] This issue of the RDM also reported that Zess T. said, "What's wrong with spending time with my little Toadle-toes?", referring to Toadsworth.
===''Mario Kart'' series===
====''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!''====
[[File:GPWinners-MKDD.png|thumb|left|Toadsworth driving in the Parade Kart]]
Toadsworth makes a cameo in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' Whenever two characters win a cup, he drives the [[Parade Kart]] that takes them to their trophy. The kart he drives, the Parade Kart, can also be used in the game. He can also be seen in the audience of [[Waluigi Stadium (GCN)|Waluigi Stadium]] alongside a green [[Toad (species)|Toad]] with a blue vest, [[Donkey Kong Jr.]], a [[Hammer Bro]], a red [[Shy Guy]], and a [[Boo]].
{{br|left}}
====''Mario Kart Arcade GP 2''====
While Toadsworth himself does not make an appearance in the arcade exclusive ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP 2]]'', he does receive a notable cameo in the Trick House section of the [[Yoshi Park 2]] course where large paper cut out figures of him as well as [[Toad]] and [[Toadette]] (done in the artwork style of the [[Yoshi (franchise)|''Yoshi'' franchise]] of games) can be seen near the entrance.
===''Mario Tennis'' series===
====''Mario Power Tennis'' / ''New Play Control! Mario Power Tennis''====
[[File:YOSHIPOWER.jpg|thumb|Toadsworth can be seen reffing a game in ''Mario Power Tennis'']]
Toadsworth is the umpire in ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'' and its ''[[New Play Control!]]'' version, where he sits on a high chair and watches characters play. He reminds "not to respond a serve before it bounced once", whenever it is done. During the opening cinematic, Toadsworth is seen at the upper barracks of the [[Peach Dome]] with Peach standing by his side during the night of the final match. After Toadsworth announces the remaining contenders, Mario and Luigi against Yoshi and Donkey Kong, Wario and Waluigi in league with Bowser arrive after Yoshi and Donkey Kong fail to show up, which catches Toadsworth off guard. Further turmoil ensues as explosives fly all over the venue, and Toadsworth catches a glimpse of a horde of explosives stowing aboard the underside of Bowser's balloon.

Toadsworth appears in ''[[Mario Tennis: Power Tour]]'' where he, along with Mario, escort [[Clay]] and [[Ace]] to the Mushroom Kingdom on the [[Toad Express]]. He also acts as the umpire as in the previous game for matches taking place in the [[Peach Dome]].

}}
The [[Mario Baseball (series)|''Mario Baseball'' series]] is Toadsworth's first playable appearance. Toadsworth is a playable character in both ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'' and its sequel, ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]''. He is on [[Princess Peach]]'s team, the "[[Peach Monarchs]]". Throughout the two games, he uses a larger version of his cane as his bat, unlike the other playable Toad characters who use regular baseball bats. He is a very skillful fielder in both games and has a great pitch, but he doesn't hit for power, doesn't run fast, and has low stamina. Despite his good pitching stats, Toadsworth's pitches tend to move slower than what most Toads can pull off.
During the opening cinematic of ''Mario Super Sluggers'', Toadsworth is seen standing by Peach's side, greeting those who are about to arrive at the [[Baseball Kingdom]] on a yacht. In Challenge Mode, Toadsworth frequently worried about Peach's kidnapping and he constantly reminds the player to rescue her. He is first seen near a fountain that is later secured by the statue of [[Princess Daisy|Daisy]]. He watches over the statue, but eventually joins the team when Peach has been rescued. Toadsworth has good chemistry with Peach, Toad, Toadette, Baby Peach, and Pianta, while he has bad chemistry with Goomba, Paragoomba, and Bowser.
===''Mario Golf'' series===
A statue of Toadsworth appears in ''[[Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour]]'' on Hole 7 of [[Peach's Castle Grounds]], while Toadsworth himself physically appears in only ''[[Mario Golf: Advance Tour]]'' on Peach's Castle. A locker containing a fake moustache with his name on the back can also be found in a [[Marion Course|Marion Clubhouse]] locker room.
===''Yakuman DS''===
[[File:Toadsworth Unlockable - Yakuman DS.png|thumb|upright=0.8|Toadsworth being unlocked in ''Yakuman DS'']]
In ''[[Yakuman DS]]'', Toadsworth is the first-ranked and most difficult opponent. He can also be unlocked by beating him in the game. This is Toadsworth's only playable appearance outside of the ''Mario Baseball'' series.
===''Mario Party'' series===
[[File:PartyCruise - MarioParty7.png|thumb|left|Toadsworth as the host in ''Mario Party 7'']]
As a token of his appreciation for all that Mario and his friends have done for the Kingdom, Toadsworth organizes an extravagant cruise in traditional ''[[Mario Party (series)|Mario Party]]'' fashion in ''[[Mario Party 7]]''. He is also the host of the boards. However, the cruise is deterred by Bowser, who is furious about his exclusion from the guest list. Toadsworth also runs the [[Duty Free Shop]] in this game, where players can buy merchandise, view figures they purchased, listen to sounds, and view records. In the [[Neon Heights]] board, a cardboard cut-out of himself appears in the shooting game where if shot, the minigame ends and the player earns no coins.
In ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'', Toadsworth makes a cameo appearance in the Collection mode.
===''Super Princess Peach''===
Toadsworth reappears in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', where he is seen accompanying Princess Peach on her stroll while the Koopa Troop attacks Peach's Castle and captures the Mario Bros. As Peach sets off to rescue them, Toadsworth initially objects but then gives her the umbrella [[Perry]], whom he had bought from a shop before the events of the game, to accompany her. He is also a guitarist for the [[Peach Hit Five]].
===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
In the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]], there are several items of Toadsworth. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', there is a [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]] of him, as well as two [[Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|stickers]] of him, both of which can applied to any fighter in [[smashwiki:Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]]; one of the stickers, depicting Toadsworth's artwork from ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', boosts the attack power of its user by 10 points, while the other, depicting Toadsworth from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', increases the user's launch power by 5 points. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', there is another trophy of Toadsworth, unlockable by defeating at least eight fighters in [[smashwiki:Cruel Smash|Cruel Smash]]. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', Toadsworth appears as a Novice-class support [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]] which occupies one support slot, and players equipped with the spirit will start battles with a [[Ramblin' Evil Mushroom]]. The puppet fighter of the Toadsworth spirit is [[Mario]] on the [[Princess Peach's Castle (Super Smash Bros. Melee)|Princess Peach's Castle]] stage.
===''Fortune Street''===
{{quote2|Oh dear! I think I spent too much gold shopping here. Toadsworth will never let me live this down!|Toad|[[Fortune Street]]}}
While Toadsworth himself does not appear in ''[[Fortune Street]]'', [[Toad]] provides reference to him throughout the game through his quotations. It is implied that Toadsworth may have some authority over Toad as he appears to be frightened of what Toadsworth would think of his choices at times throughout the game. One of Princess Peach's quotes mentions him as well, where she states that she may need to turn to Toadsworth for financial advice.
===Other appearances===

====''The Super Mario Bros. Movie''====
Toadsworth appears in early concept artwork for ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]''.<ref>rawmeatcowboy (April 23, 2023). [https://gonintendo.com/contents/19403-super-mario-bros-movie-concept-art-leaks-revealing-cut-characters-and-more Super Mario Bros. Movie concept art leaks, revealing cut characters and more]. ''GoNintendo''. Retrieved April 23, 2023.</ref> The [[Toad General]] has a similar role to Toadsworth's in the final film.
==General information==
===Physical appearance===
Toadsworth is portrayed as an elderly Toad with a tan complexion and a beige cap with brown spots. He has a puffy, white mustache, although if the player looks in a locker in ''[[Mario Golf: Advance Tour]]'', they find a fake mustache labeled "Toadsworth", jokingly implying that his facial hair is {{wp|Fake moustache|fake}}. Like other Toads, Toadsworth is short and stout. Despite his age, he is quite energetic. He also speaks with a southern English accent.
He wears a light purple vest with gold buttons that have Toad emblems on them. Layered on top of the vest is a purple, sleeveless jacket that hangs down like a tuxedo with a gold trim. He wears white bottoms underneath and brown, padded shoes like those of all other Toads'. He also wears small, black round glasses and a red bow-tie. He walks around using a stick-like cane that has a brown mushroom cap on top with beige spots on it.
In his [[Toadsworth the Younger|younger form]], he has a brown mustache, small, curious-looking eyebrows, and the same mushroom cap. His attire is more similar to that of other Toads, being a red vest with a golden trim baring his chest, along with his red bow-tie.
===Personality===
Toadsworth is a kind character who tries his best to help others, particularly Princess Peach, whom he cares for very deeply, having had a hand in raising her since she was a baby. Toadsworth constantly worries about Peach when she has been kidnapped by [[Bowser]], and while Toadsworth is quick to panic and flee with the other Toads when danger arises, he sometimes tries to stay and protect the princess or offer advice to the Mario Bros. In ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', Toadsworth was originally hesitant to let Peach go to save Mario, out of fear for her safety. Toadsworth is known for addressing many other characters with the "Master" honorific due to his polite nature. Although kind overall, he does have his limits, as after the Shroob threat was over, he privately admits he's glad that his younger counterpart will be off his back, although denies claiming that when Toadsworth the Younger expresses suspicion of his true feelings toward him.
===Powers and abilities===
Toadsworth's cane appears to possess magical abilities, as in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', he could create [[? Block]]s with it. In addition, he is shown to be able to drive in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', but he has yet to be seen participating in a [[Mario Kart (series)|kart race]]. He is also skilled at playing mahjong, as seen in ''[[Yakuman DS]]'', where he is the highest ranked opponent.
==Relationship to Peach==
[[File:Mpt intro 2.png|thumb|upright=1.1|Toadsworth alongside Princess Peach in the intro of ''Mario Power Tennis'']]
There is much confusion surrounding Peach and Toadsworth's relationship. It is said on the official site for ''Super Mario Sunshine'' that he is Peach's father, which would make him [[Mushroom King]].{{ref needed}} The page for ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'' also says this.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20130118221831/http://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/c6e9969e-692f-47e1-b82a-8b765cc42fe5 "Bidden by Toadsworth, Peach's father, to find his daughter, the bros. travel to the Mushroom Kingdom of yesteryear by jumping through mysterious time holes which suddenly appear."]</ref> Nevertheless, it has been stated in games and game booklets that Toadsworth is Peach's attaché and thus is subordinate to her. Additionally, in ''Mario Superstar Baseball'', when naming all of the players on Peach's team, [[Lakitu]] says ''"And... your grandpa?! Oh, pardon me! Venerable Toadsworth!"'' While not made entirely clear, Lakitu may have at first been mistaken, but then corrected himself. Peach also addresses him as "Toadsworth" (not as "father" or "grandfather") in ''Super Mario Sunshine''. Regardless of his position, he cares deeply for the Princess, very much in a fatherly manner, and has taken care of her since she was a baby, similar to [[Kamek]] and [[Bowser]]'s relationship. They also have good chemistry with each other in the ''Mario Baseball'' series.

Super Mario chart images 2

Hi, again, Doc. The exchange we had the other day was helpful. I had subsequently updated the chart image sizes on the Super Mario Galaxy page, and I was hoping to get your opinion. How does it look? I did not go as big as the current images on the Sunshine article, but they are bigger than they use to be. - Nintendo101 (talk) 10:04, November 27, 2023 (EST)

They do seem a little small, but not in dire need of enlargement. I'd personally go a little bigger, but I'll check again later when I'm not only just getting up and still have my eyes adjusted to dark. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 11:06, November 27, 2023 (EST)

About the Luigi's Mansion series bat

Hey, sorry for bothering you, I saw you have 'Merge Bat (Mario Kart 64) and Bat (Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon) into a generic "Bat (species)" article' in your "current goals", and I just wanted to say that I don't think that's a good idea. The LM2 and LM3 pests do look pretty generic, and they're referred to accordingly by English sources, but, you see those [citation needed] names in the NioL sections? Turns out the ones for the crow (which I intend to split eventually) and spider are used in game, so I believe the others are probably correct as well, possibly from some Japanese guide. I guess what I'm saying is, there's reason to believe they're supposed to be unique, albeit generic looking, recurring enemies. Blinker (talk) 16:48, November 27, 2023 (EST)

I'll just wait and see, then. Generic bats have appeared elsewhere, like in VB Wario Land and DK64 (as a recurring foreground species, not the enemy). Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 16:52, November 27, 2023 (EST)

Re:Icons

Oh, no: the icon themselves it's not cropped, the sprite sheet is cropped to contain just the icon, the surrounding transparent space was not touched. --My avatar's face to use in the signature Mariuigi Khed 18:19, December 2, 2023 (EST)

my edit to Sayonara

i was not aware of the words actual meaning. i apologize for my mistake i just assumed it was bad due to the way my grandma uses it
— The preceding unsigned comment was added by Gamerfromsaturn (talk).

Well, it's highly unfortunate that she does, but all that matters here is you learned from this. Don't worry. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 10:52, December 4, 2023 (EST)

Machine Made

Pardon my edit, I was mistaken; it was specifically Bowyer's Machine Made copy that didn't move in the original game. I misremembered and thought none of them did. Is that still worth noting for just him? DrakeyC (talk) 20:53, December 11, 2023 (EST)

No, because normal Bowyer doesn't have a battle idle animation either. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 21:03, December 11, 2023 (EST)
And once again you're right, my mind is double-tricking me XD. Sorry again. DrakeyC (talk) 23:10, December 11, 2023 (EST)

Red Gnawty image

Hi ^^

The image itself is good, but it stands out because its pose isn't the same as the one used for the others. Thanks for telling me about the image size, I managed to compress it just right. Do you think it would be ok to use it? I can send it to you if you want User:Pifouillou (talk)

Other images for DKCGB are different from each other (sometimes out of necessity, like walking vs jumping Kritters). I think it's nice to show variety until we get the full animations in. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 10:05, December 13, 2023 (EST)

The full animations ? What do you want to mean by that? I like the idea to show variety in sprites with the gifs, but it's a little odd when GBC's regular and red Gnawties sprites are side by side. User:Pifouillou (talk)

Full animations would be the animated .gifs. Showing them on a different frame is fine if they're still, though it doesn't really matter either way. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 12:37, December 13, 2023 (EST)

The Spriters Resource

I created a new user in VG Resource. How many days I can submit to the site? ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 19:30, December 21, 2023 (EST)

I don't know offhand, but it's a few. Not very many, but a few. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 20:10, December 21, 2023 (EST)

I've been waiting 16 days and I still cannot submit! The website where I posted the material was closed, losing almost everything. ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 23:26, Jaunary 6, 2024 (EST)

You should ask a moderator. The submission rules say that posting in place of someone else is not allowed (except for administrators for archiving old sheets). Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 21:30, January 6, 2024 (EST)

I have to be a submitter to do it. I'm trying to retrieve material with archive.org, but there is no more Pictures Wiki. So I need your help to send them, because you are the only submitter I know. These are sprites that I completed over days, weeks and months. And what's worse, the Wii emulator no longer works.

ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 14:17, Jaunary 7, 2024 (EST)

I am not allowed to submit other people's sprites according to the rules, I could get banned for that. You need to reach out to someone if signing up on the site won't allow you to submit after so long. Are you able to comment? Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 12:22, January 7, 2024 (EST)

I was going to comment, but only those who are submitters. But I made a contact. ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 14:44, Jaunary 7, 2024 (EST)

Can you contact the administrator to allow me to be a submitter? It's my chance to post the material I recovered. ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 00:52, Jaunary 8, 2024 (EST)

Sure. By the way, it says your account is not activated. Did you submit an email address when you signed up? If so, you'll probably want to look there for a confirmation link. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 23:32, January 7, 2024 (EST)
OK, the administrator said he tried to get ahold of you, but the email bounced. Check and make sure you entered your email correctly on the user control panel. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 00:26, January 8, 2024 (EST)
I made a confirmation link. I confirmed my email and everything is correct. When you were a member, how did you get accepted as a submitter? ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 13:53, Jaunary 8, 2024 (EST)
That was back in 2017, I don't remember. I can't find anything in my inbox about that. Is your inbox full? Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 11:58, January 8, 2024 (EST)
How do I complete my inbox? ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 16:36, January 8, 2024 (EST)
Maybe this will help you remember. ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 16:40, January 8, 2024 (EST)
Do you have an active email address capable of sending and receiving emails. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 15:15, January 8, 2024 (EST)
I was seeing the rules, it was said that the team has to approve the user or remove the PMs (I don't know what it is). ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 21:53, January 8, 2024 (EST)
Answer my question, please. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 19:55, January 8, 2024 (EST)
What question? I don't remember! ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 23:00, January 8, 2024 (EST)
Do you have a functioning email address that you know can both send and receive emails. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 21:21, January 8, 2024 (EST)
No! ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 23:42, January 8, 2024 (EST)
Then you need to get one. Gmail is free to sign up on. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 22:04, January 8, 2024 (EST)
So I have to have two email address? One I have in my username and the other in Gmail? ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 00:16, January 9, 2024 (EST)
You're not making sense. I think the language barrier is getting to be too much. You need a pre-existing email address to make your profile on VG Resource. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 22:22, January 8, 2024 (EST)
I have this cpa1989@hotmail.com which is from my profile. Sorry for the hurry, but since Pictures Wiki was closed, I'm desperate. Because I no longer want to lose the material that I ripped and created, I managed to recover them. There are even sprites that I cannot make again. Tiki Tong, Tikis and Giga Goro Ball were made on the Wii emulator takes so long on my other PC. ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 00:48, January 9, 2024 (EST)
Hotmail should work. Make sure you can send and receive emails on it, and once you are sure you can, try re-sending the confirmation on VG Resource. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 22:57, January 8, 2024 (EST)

As social networks now require a telephone, it will take some time before I receive the telephone chip. ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 23:42, January 9, 2024 (EST)

Well, I don't know about that. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 21:47, January 9, 2024 (EST)

What is the VG Resource administrator's email address? I have a profile in outlook! ChristopherPAraujo (talk) 15:31, January 11, 2024 (EST) 21:47, January 9, 2024 (EST)

I don't know, but he has an email button here. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 14:46, January 11, 2024 (EST)

Bowser's Fury gallery

I'm wondering if you had this in mind with your proposal for a seperate page for Bowser's Fury? I'm skeptical because I once proposed splitting a gallery for Donkey Kong Adventure from the Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle gallery which failed badly for reasons I now understand. I didn't want to revert it without seeing what you have to say about it first. Mario jumping Nightwicked Bowser Bowser emblem from Mario Kart 8 21:32, January 1, 2024 (EST)

In that case, it's still the same game, just with different characters and location, so it's not 1:1. If splits involving paid DLC expansions get more traction down the line (especially with MK8DX's highly delayed content), then that might be worth revisiting. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 21:34, January 1, 2024 (EST)
What about the Bowser's Fury gallery then, which was my main question? Mario jumping Nightwicked Bowser Bowser emblem from Mario Kart 8 21:36, January 1, 2024 (EST)
I don't really see an issue with it. All the content in it is exclusive to the B-Side mode, which as previously established act as its own separate game. And if you consider the sheer size of the M&L remake galleries (especially regarding sprites), splitting them makes sense purely from a workability standpoint. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 21:38, January 1, 2024 (EST)

Bulb Boo

Yes, this looks like it. What would be some other outstanding ambiguities that a guide might clarify? LinkTheLefty (talk) 04:05, January 8, 2024 (EST)

So the question now is...what to do with this information? I suppose it would be a good idea to ask Mister Wu if he happens to have that guide. If not, I guess I can use up a gift card... LinkTheLefty (talk) 18:17, January 25, 2024 (EST)

Feedback for cleaning up Category:Thieves

Hello! Swallow and I are discussing a cleanup of Category:Thieves. Mind sharing your feedback? You were the one who suggested refining the definition back in 2017–2018, so I think you'd be perfect for this! SolemnStormcloud (talk) 17:09, January 8, 2024 (EST)

Wow, that was a long time ago. But yes, what I said there, it should refer primarily to career criminals or otherwise entities that are defined by stealing (like, say, Klepto the condor), not to everyone who pickpockets once or twice or opens a chest in someone else's house. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 17:20, January 8, 2024 (EST)
Thanks for your feedback! I also messaged Camwoodstock, and they responded with a looooong dissection of the category in its talk page. It's best you head over there so you can contest any entries. SolemnStormcloud (talk) 20:51, January 8, 2024 (EST)
Camwoodstock and I are currently discussing what a proposal on cleaning the category would even entail in the talk page. Would you mind sharing your take on this? SolemnStormcloud (talk) 13:58, January 12, 2024 (EST)

My outburst

I know I had a bit of an angry outburst, as I said I felt the need to vent the turn of these debates from the fact I left my thoughts on the subject and you immediately started bringing more cases into it. I did not mean to insult you and I'm absolutely not the kind of person to insult others for different opinions, and I don't even care about being an administrator either. I probably could have left out the word "stupid", but I still really don't like when more cases get piled up on me like that. I'm sure you know I'm not too good at debating and I try not to go too deep into it for the sake of my mental health as I've said many times before. Mario jumping Nightwicked Bowser Bowser emblem from Mario Kart 8 19:28, January 16, 2024 (EST)

Well, I mean, precedence is important for determining cases like that (especially for consistency's sake), that's all I'm trying to do when I bring up things like that. You may want to eschew talk page debates in general if you find yourself set off so easily. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 19:31, January 16, 2024 (EST)
I don't mind leaving my thoughts in discussions and proposals, but if possible I'd prefer to leave my involement there so that I'd have a much lower chance of getting set off. Mario jumping Nightwicked Bowser Bowser emblem from Mario Kart 8 19:37, January 16, 2024 (EST)
Therein the problem lies. A debate is a two-way street, you can't expect to leave an objection without receiving a defense. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 19:41, January 16, 2024 (EST)
"if possible I'd prefer to leave my involvement there" Then do that. As you've been told before, nobody here is dragging you into a debate, and nobody here aims to test your rhetorical prowess. You should always expect disagreements, but you're also free to just place your opinions on a discussion and leave as you please, for at the end of the day you are merely volunteering to edit. I certainly never thought of you as "dumb" just because you're not particularly invested in a discussion on a video game franchise; it was more so the attitude you expressed your thoughts with that I found miffing. -- KOOPA CON CARNE 20:13, January 16, 2024 (EST)
As another sysop, but not part of a heated debate so I have benefit of a cool head, I feel I'm obliged to comment. Swallow: there's plenty of ways to disagree. I understand that you're frustrated; I very much disagree with the reasoning and analogy being made in Talk:Chargin' Chuck, but I've interpreted your comment as an insult, even if it's unintentional, it's too defensive. Please restrain yourself, act more respectful toward the argument being made, and focus more on key points. We've all had the outbursts and have shown visible frustration during wiki debates, I'm sure. I've yelled at Koopa con Carne and Doc von Schmeltwick before, they know. Anyway no hard feelings intended for any of you, I'm just giving advice here. We're all in this wiki together. Mario (Santa)'s map icon from Mario Kart Tour Mario-HOHO!

Was the book only ever released in Japanese or are there editions in other languages? 'Cuz if it's the former I don't think the Multilang Profile template is necessary here. -- KOOPA CON CARNE 18:44, January 19, 2024 (EST)

It's just Japanese, but I can't find any other template to work with and I like the formatting it gives (mostly). Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 18:48, January 19, 2024 (EST)
You're suggesting there might be things you don't like in this template. I designed it (with Porple correcting the code) so if you have any feedback to improve it, please do tell! I'm actually eager to hear people suggesting improvements to my work on this site. -- KOOPA CON CARNE 19:14, January 19, 2024 (EST)

Template:Quote2 Toadsworth is an elderly Toad and Princess Peach's longtime steward, introduced in Super Mario Sunshine. He is 60 years old, according to an e-mail in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. He is constantly worrying about the princess and takes care of the Toads. He has an English accent and often utters old-fashioned English phrases like "Tally-ho!" and "Pip pip!", most of which made their debut in Mario Party 7. Before Toadsworth's introduction in Super Mario Sunshine, the Chancellor played a role very similar to his and was even similar in appearance.

History

Super Mario series

Super Mario Sunshine

Toadsworth along with Mario and Peach in Super Mario Sunshine

Toadsworth's first appearance is in Super Mario Sunshine where he accompanies Mario, Princess Peach, and an entourage of Toads to Isle Delfino for a vacation. While traveling there, he can be seen day dreaming about the relaxation that he can get at the island as well as about the roller coaster at Pinna Park that he is tempted to ride on, resulting in his ignoring Peach when she attempts to warn him of seeing a doppelganger of Mario in the background of the tour video for the island. However, upon arriving on the island's airstrip, he and the other vacationers find the small island covered with graffiti thanks to the mysterious fiend known as Shadow Mario (who eventually frames Mario of ruining the island).

After cleaning Delfino Airstrip, Mario and the group are taken to a courthouse on the mainland, where Mario is put on trial for vandalizing Isle Delfino. The prosecutor explains that someone who looks like Mario covered the island with graffiti, and that he is to blame. Peach and Toadsworth attempt to object, but are overruled, and Mario is found guilty. He is then forced to clean the island, as well as find all the Shine Sprites.

As Mario attempts to do so to clear his name, Toadsworth at first can be seen simply accompanying the Princess around the island. After she is kidnapped by Shadow Mario he can be found fretting and worrying in various locations. Often, he can be seen reminding Mario to go rescue the princess. After she is rescued, he and the other heroes can be seen finally enjoying the facilities at Isle Delfino as originally planned in the ending credits. Toadsworth presumably returns with the rest of the vacationers to the Mushroom Kingdom later on.

New Super Mario Bros.

Toadsworth models in the opening

Toadsworth replaces Toad as the host of Toad Houses in New Super Mario Bros. He gives out items to Mario or Luigi by conjuring up a Roulette Block with his wand. Some of the Toad Houses also give out extra lives to the Mario Bros. by having them play a card match up game. However, most of these houses require Mario (or Luigi) to pay 5 Star Coins in order to enter.

In the opening cutscene, multiple models of Toadsworth are used to create the illusion of Toads running around in a panic once the thundercloud strikes Peach's Castle.[2]

Mario & Luigi series

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga / Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions

Toadsworth and the others about to leave the Beanbean Kingdom

In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, Toadsworth makes a brief appearance in the beginning of the game where he presents Mario and Luigi with a Suitcase to take on their journey to the Beanbean Kingdom. Later he comes to the Beanbean Kingdom himself (along with Princess Peach). He also provides the Mario Bros. with a spare dress for the Princess just before they set off to Joke's End to rescue the Princess from Bowletta's clutches, anticipating the possibility that she might have damaged it in an attempt to escape. After a while, he spends his time with Peach in the Mushroom Embassy. He is shown near the end of the game to be good friends with Lady Lima.

Toadsworth reprises his role in the game's remake, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions.

Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time

See also: Toadsworth the Younger

Present day Toadsworth
Toadsworth the Younger Toadsworth

Toadsworth also appears in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, playing a larger role in this game than in its predecessor. He is with Mario and Luigi when Princess Peach takes an experimental trip back in time, and is paranoid that something terrible might happen. He eventually faints from shroomshock due to his excess worrying for the princess, creating a comedic scene of Mario getting a refreshroom for the elderly Toad to feel better. His fears later become justified, as when the time machine returns, a Junior Shrooboid is in it. He is soon attacked by the Shrooboid though Mario and Luigi eventually defeat it. He is still confused when he wakes up and accidentally pushes Mario and Luigi into a time hole. He later teams up with his younger self to teach the Bros. new moves (such as the Toadsworth Twist, Bros. Ball, etc.) and keep Baby Peach entertained while she stays in the future. Toadsworth is indirectly responsible for sending Mario and Luigi into the past from the start, as he had accidentally knocked Luigi into a time hole, causing Mario to go in after him. Near the end of the game, a Shroob character based on Toadsworth called Shroobsworth appears as a common enemy.

Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story / Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey

Mario and Luigi find Toadsworth in the Pump Works

Toadsworth returns in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and its Nintendo 3DS remake. He, along with many other Mushroom Kingdom residents, eventually get swallowed up by Bowser after Fawful tricks Bowser into eating the Vacuum Shroom. He is then found in Pump Works of Bowser's body where he must be rescued by the Mario Bros. Compared to the last game, his role is very small, appearing in various areas, mainly Toad Square. At first, he can often be seen sobbing for the Princess's well being after she is kidnapped by Fawful. After getting over the Princess's well being, and being assured that Mario and Luigi would save her, Toadsworth tries to stop moping and stay strong, and teaches the Mario Bros. about beans. He is shown to be good friends with Toadbert as well. Toadbert and Toadsworth are seen having some tea together while waiting for Bowser's back to heal.

Mario & Luigi: Dream Team

Toadsworth as he appears in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team.

Toadsworth appears in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, where he, Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, and the Toads are invited to Pi'illo Island for sightseeing. His role is even smaller than in the previous games and is mainly used for comic relief (him worrying about Peach and getting annoyed when Dr. Snoozemore falls asleep).

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Sprite of Toadsworth
Toadsworth in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Toadsworth accompanies Princess Peach on her trip to Rogueport during Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. He keeps Princess Peach very close to him, but ends up losing her. When Mario comes to Rogueport he meets a frantic Toadsworth who is incredibly worried about the missing Princess. Mario assures Toadsworth that he is going to save her, and Toadsworth spends the remainder of the game in Rogueport's Inn. In the ending he, the Mario Bros., and the Princess leave Rogueport on a boat as they head back to the Mushroom Kingdom.

The second RDM issue that Mario received stated that Toadsworth had frequently been seen with the cook Zess T. This issue of the RDM also reported that Zess T. said, "What's wrong with spending time with my little Toadle-toes?", referring to Toadsworth.

Mario Kart series

Mario Kart: Double Dash!!

Award Ceremony

Toadsworth makes a cameo in Mario Kart: Double Dash!! Whenever two characters win a cup, he drives the Parade Kart that takes them to their trophy. The kart he drives, the Parade Kart, can also be used in the game. He can also be seen in the audience of Waluigi Stadium alongside a green Toad with a blue vest, Donkey Kong Jr., a Hammer Bro, a red Shy Guy, and a Boo.

Mario Kart Arcade GP 2

While Toadsworth himself does not make an appearance in the arcade exclusive Mario Kart Arcade GP 2, he does receive a notable cameo in the Trick House section of the Yoshi Park 2 course where large paper cut out figures of him as well as Toad and Toadette (done in the artwork style of the Yoshi franchise of games) can be seen near the entrance.

Mario Tennis series

Mario Power Tennis / New Play Control! Mario Power Tennis

Toadsworth can be seen reffing a game in Mario Power Tennis

Toadsworth is the umpire in Mario Power Tennis and its New Play Control! version, where he sits on a high chair and watches characters play. He reminds "not to respond a serve before it bounced once", whenever it is done. During the opening cinematic, Toadsworth is seen at the upper barracks of the Peach Dome with Peach standing by his side during the night of the final match. After Toadsworth announces the remaining contenders, Mario and Luigi against Yoshi and Donkey Kong, Wario and Waluigi in league with Bowser arrive after Yoshi and Donkey Kong fail to show up, which catches Toadsworth off guard. Further turmoil ensues as explosives fly all over the venue, and Toadsworth catches a glimpse of a horde of explosives stowing aboard the underside of Bowser's balloon.

Mario Tennis: Power Tour

Toadsworth appears in Mario Tennis: Power Tour where he, along with Mario, escort Clay and Ace to the Mushroom Kingdom on the Toad Express. He also acts as the umpire as in the previous game for matches taking place in the Peach Dome.

Mario Baseball series

Toadsworth prepares to bat in Mario Super Sluggers

The Mario Baseball series is Toadsworth's first playable appearance. Toadsworth is a playable character in both Mario Superstar Baseball and its sequel, Mario Super Sluggers. He is on Princess Peach's team, the "Peach Monarchs". Throughout the two games, he uses a larger version of his cane as his bat, unlike the other playable Toad characters who use regular baseball bats. He is a very skillful fielder in both games and has a great pitch, but he doesn't hit for power, doesn't run fast, and has low stamina. Despite his good pitching stats, Toadsworth's pitches tend to move slower than what most Toads can pull off.

During the opening cinematic of Mario Super Sluggers, Toadsworth is seen standing by Peach's side, greeting those who are about to arrive at the Baseball Kingdom on a yacht. In Challenge Mode, Toadsworth frequently worried about Peach's kidnapping and he constantly reminds the player to rescue her. He is first seen near a fountain that is later secured by the statue of Daisy. He watches over the statue, but eventually joins the team when Peach has been rescued. Toadsworth has good chemistry with Peach, Toad, Toadette, Baby Peach, and Pianta, while he has bad chemistry with Goomba, Paragoomba, and Bowser.

Mario Golf series

A statue of Toadsworth appears in Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour on Hole 7 of Peach's Castle Grounds, while Toadsworth himself physically appears in only Mario Golf: Advance Tour on Peach's Castle. A locker containing a fake moustache with his name on the back can also be found in a Marion Clubhouse locker room.

Yakuman DS

Toadsworth as an unlockable character
Toadsworth being unlocked in Yakuman DS

In Yakuman DS, Toadsworth is the first-ranked and most difficult opponent. He can also be unlocked by beating him in the game. This is Toadsworth's only playable appearance outside of the Mario Baseball series.

Mario Party series

Party Cruise from Mario Party 7
Toadsworth as the host in Mario Party 7

As a token of his appreciation for all that Mario and his friends have done for the Kingdom, Toadsworth organizes an extravagant cruise in traditional Mario Party fashion in Mario Party 7. He is also the host of the boards. However, the cruise is deterred by Bowser, who is furious about his exclusion from the guest list. Toadsworth also runs the Duty Free Shop in this game, where players can buy merchandise, view figures they purchased, listen to sounds, and view records. In the Neon Heights board, a cardboard cut-out of himself appears in the shooting game where if shot, the minigame ends and the player earns no coins.

In Mario Party: The Top 100, Toadsworth makes a cameo appearance in the Collection mode.

Super Princess Peach

Toadsworth reappears in Super Princess Peach, where he is seen accompanying Princess Peach on her stroll while the Koopa Troop attacks Peach's Castle and captures the Mario Bros. As Peach sets off to rescue them, Toadsworth initially objects but then gives her the umbrella Perry, whom he had bought from a shop before the events of the game, to accompany her. He is also a guitarist for the Peach Hit Five.

Super Smash Bros. series

In the Super Smash Bros. series, there are several items of Toadsworth. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, there is a trophy of him, as well as two stickers of him, both of which can applied to any fighter in The Subspace Emissary; one of the stickers, depicting Toadsworth's artwork from Super Mario Sunshine, boosts the attack power of its user by 10 points, while the other, depicting Toadsworth from Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, increases the user's launch power by 5 points. In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, there is another trophy of Toadsworth, unlockable by defeating at least eight fighters in Cruel Smash. In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Toadsworth appears as a Novice-class support spirit which occupies one support slot, and players equipped with the spirit will start battles with a Ramblin' Evil Mushroom. The puppet fighter of the Toadsworth spirit is Mario on the Princess Peach's Castle stage.

Fortune Street

Template:Quote2 While Toadsworth himself does not appear in Fortune Street, Toad provides reference to him throughout the game through his quotations. It is implied that Toadsworth may have some authority over Toad as he appears to be frightened of what Toadsworth would think of his choices at times throughout the game. One of Princess Peach's quotes mentions him as well, where she states that she may need to turn to Toadsworth for financial advice.

Other appearances

Play Nintendo

In Mario Reads Your Letters episodes 5 and 7 uploaded by Play Nintendo, Toadsworth's name appears as one of Mario's email contacts on his computer with the subject "Long time no see".[3][4]

Unused appearances

Mario Party 8

Toadsworth may have been planned to appear in Mario Party 8 as his model and two voice clips from Mario Party 7 remain unused in the game's files.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie

Toadsworth appears in early concept artwork for The Super Mario Bros. Movie.[5] The Toad General has a similar role to Toadsworth's in the final film.

General information

Physical appearance

Toadsworth is portrayed as an elderly Toad with a tan complexion and a beige cap with brown spots. He has a puffy, white mustache, although if the player looks in a locker in Mario Golf: Advance Tour, they find a fake mustache labeled "Toadsworth", jokingly implying that his facial hair is fake. Like other Toads, Toadsworth is short and stout. Despite his age, he is quite energetic. He also speaks with a southern English accent.

He wears a light purple vest with gold buttons that have Toad emblems on them. Layered on top of the vest is a purple, sleeveless jacket that hangs down like a tuxedo with a gold trim. He wears white bottoms underneath and brown, padded shoes like those of all other Toads'. He also wears small, black round glasses and a red bow-tie. He walks around using a stick-like cane that has a brown mushroom cap on top with beige spots on it.

In his younger form, he has a brown mustache, small, curious-looking eyebrows, and the same mushroom cap. His attire is more similar to that of other Toads, being a red vest with a golden trim baring his chest, along with his red bow-tie.

Personality

Toadsworth is a kind character who tries his best to help others, particularly Princess Peach, whom he cares for very deeply, having had a hand in raising her since she was a baby. Toadsworth constantly worries about Peach when she has been kidnapped by Bowser, and while Toadsworth is quick to panic and flee with the other Toads when danger arises, he sometimes tries to stay and protect the princess or offer advice to the Mario Bros. In Super Princess Peach, Toadsworth was originally hesitant to let Peach go to save Mario, out of fear for her safety. Toadsworth is known for addressing many other characters with the "Master" honorific due to his polite nature. Although kind overall, he does have his limits, as after the Shroob threat was over, he privately admits he's glad that his younger counterpart will be off his back, although denies claiming that when Toadsworth the Younger expresses suspicion of his true feelings toward him.

Powers and abilities

Toadsworth's cane appears to possess magical abilities, as in New Super Mario Bros., he could create ? Blocks with it. In addition, he is shown to be able to drive in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, but he has yet to be seen participating in a kart race. He is also skilled at playing mahjong, as seen in Yakuman DS, where he is the highest ranked opponent.

Relationship to Peach

Toadsworth alongside Princess Peach in the intro of Mario Power Tennis

There is much confusion surrounding Peach and Toadsworth's relationship. It is said on the official site for Super Mario Sunshine that he is Peach's father, which would make him Mushroom King.[citation needed] The page for Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time also says this.[6] Nevertheless, it has been stated in games and game booklets that Toadsworth is Peach's attaché and thus is subordinate to her. Additionally, in Mario Superstar Baseball, when naming all of the players on Peach's team, Lakitu says "And... your grandpa?! Oh, pardon me! Venerable Toadsworth!" While not made entirely clear, Lakitu may have at first been mistaken, but then corrected himself. Peach also addresses him as "Toadsworth" (not as "father" or "grandfather") in Super Mario Sunshine. Regardless of his position, he cares deeply for the Princess, very much in a fatherly manner, and has taken care of her since she was a baby, similar to Kamek and Bowser's relationship. They also have good chemistry with each other in the Mario Baseball series.

Template:Quote2 Toadsworth is an elderly Toad and Princess Peach's longtime steward, introduced in Super Mario Sunshine. He is 60 years old, according to an e-mail in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. He is constantly worrying about the princess and takes care of the Toads. He has an English accent and often utters old-fashioned English phrases like "Tally-ho!" and "Pip pip!", most of which made their debut in Mario Party 7. Before Toadsworth's introduction in Super Mario Sunshine, the Chancellor played a role very similar to his and was even similar in appearance.

History

Super Mario series

Super Mario Sunshine

Toadsworth along with Mario and Peach in Super Mario Sunshine

Toadsworth's first appearance is in Super Mario Sunshine where he accompanies Mario, Princess Peach, and an entourage of Toads to Isle Delfino for a vacation. While traveling there, he can be seen day dreaming about the relaxation that he can get at the island as well as about the roller coaster at Pinna Park that he is tempted to ride on, resulting in his ignoring Peach when she attempts to warn him of seeing a doppelganger of Mario in the background of the tour video for the island. However, upon arriving on the island's airstrip, he and the other vacationers find the small island covered with graffiti thanks to the mysterious fiend known as Shadow Mario (who eventually frames Mario of ruining the island).

After cleaning Delfino Airstrip, Mario and the group are taken to a courthouse on the mainland, where Mario is put on trial for vandalizing Isle Delfino. The prosecutor explains that someone who looks like Mario covered the island with graffiti, and that he is to blame. Peach and Toadsworth attempt to object, but are overruled, and Mario is found guilty. He is then forced to clean the island, as well as find all the Shine Sprites.

As Mario attempts to do so to clear his name, Toadsworth at first can be seen simply accompanying the Princess around the island. After she is kidnapped by Shadow Mario he can be found fretting and worrying in various locations. Often, he can be seen reminding Mario to go rescue the princess. After she is rescued, he and the other heroes can be seen finally enjoying the facilities at Isle Delfino as originally planned in the ending credits. Toadsworth presumably returns with the rest of the vacationers to the Mushroom Kingdom later on.

New Super Mario Bros.

Toadsworth models in the opening

Toadsworth replaces Toad as the host of Toad Houses in New Super Mario Bros. He gives out items to Mario or Luigi by conjuring up a Roulette Block with his wand. Some of the Toad Houses also give out extra lives to the Mario Bros. by having them play a card match up game. However, most of these houses require Mario (or Luigi) to pay 5 Star Coins in order to enter.

In the opening cutscene, multiple models of Toadsworth are used to create the illusion of Toads running around in a panic once the thundercloud strikes Peach's Castle.[2]

Mario & Luigi series

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga / Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions

Toadsworth and the others about to leave the Beanbean Kingdom

In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, Toadsworth makes a brief appearance in the beginning of the game where he presents Mario and Luigi with a Suitcase to take on their journey to the Beanbean Kingdom. Later he comes to the Beanbean Kingdom himself (along with Princess Peach). He also provides the Mario Bros. with a spare dress for the Princess just before they set off to Joke's End to rescue the Princess from Bowletta's clutches, anticipating the possibility that she might have damaged it in an attempt to escape. After a while, he spends his time with Peach in the Mushroom Embassy. He is shown near the end of the game to be good friends with Lady Lima.

Toadsworth reprises his role in the game's remake, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions.

Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time

See also: Toadsworth the Younger

Present day Toadsworth
Toadsworth the Younger Toadsworth

Toadsworth also appears in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, playing a larger role in this game than in its predecessor. He is with Mario and Luigi when Princess Peach takes an experimental trip back in time, and is paranoid that something terrible might happen. He eventually faints from shroomshock due to his excess worrying for the princess, creating a comedic scene of Mario getting a refreshroom for the elderly Toad to feel better. His fears later become justified, as when the time machine returns, a Junior Shrooboid is in it. He is soon attacked by the Shrooboid though Mario and Luigi eventually defeat it. He is still confused when he wakes up and accidentally pushes Mario and Luigi into a time hole. He later teams up with his younger self to teach the Bros. new moves (such as the Toadsworth Twist, Bros. Ball, etc.) and keep Baby Peach entertained while she stays in the future. Toadsworth is indirectly responsible for sending Mario and Luigi into the past from the start, as he had accidentally knocked Luigi into a time hole, causing Mario to go in after him. Near the end of the game, a Shroob character based on Toadsworth called Shroobsworth appears as a common enemy.

Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story / Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey

Mario and Luigi find Toadsworth in the Pump Works

Toadsworth returns in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and its Nintendo 3DS remake. He, along with many other Mushroom Kingdom residents, eventually get swallowed up by Bowser after Fawful tricks Bowser into eating the Vacuum Shroom. He is then found in Pump Works of Bowser's body where he must be rescued by the Mario Bros. Compared to the last game, his role is very small, appearing in various areas, mainly Toad Square. At first, he can often be seen sobbing for the Princess's well being after she is kidnapped by Fawful. After getting over the Princess's well being, and being assured that Mario and Luigi would save her, Toadsworth tries to stop moping and stay strong, and teaches the Mario Bros. about beans. He is shown to be good friends with Toadbert as well. Toadbert and Toadsworth are seen having some tea together while waiting for Bowser's back to heal.

Mario & Luigi: Dream Team

Toadsworth as he appears in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team.

Toadsworth appears in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, where he, Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, and the Toads are invited to Pi'illo Island for sightseeing. His role is even smaller than in the previous games and is mainly used for comic relief (him worrying about Peach and getting annoyed when Dr. Snoozemore falls asleep).

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Sprite of Toadsworth
Toadsworth in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Toadsworth accompanies Princess Peach on her trip to Rogueport during Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. He keeps Princess Peach very close to him, but ends up losing her. When Mario comes to Rogueport he meets a frantic Toadsworth who is incredibly worried about the missing Princess. Mario assures Toadsworth that he is going to save her, and Toadsworth spends the remainder of the game in Rogueport's Inn. In the ending he, the Mario Bros., and the Princess leave Rogueport on a boat as they head back to the Mushroom Kingdom.

The second RDM issue that Mario received stated that Toadsworth had frequently been seen with the cook Zess T. This issue of the RDM also reported that Zess T. said, "What's wrong with spending time with my little Toadle-toes?", referring to Toadsworth.

Mario Kart series

Award Ceremony

Toadsworth makes a cameo in Mario Kart: Double Dash!! Whenever two characters win a cup, he drives the Parade Kart that takes them to their trophy. The kart he drives, the Parade Kart, can also be used in the game. He can also be seen in the audience of Waluigi Stadium alongside a green Toad with a blue vest, Donkey Kong Jr., a Hammer Bro, a red Shy Guy, and a Boo.

Mario Kart Arcade GP 2

While Toadsworth himself does not make an appearance in the arcade exclusive Mario Kart Arcade GP 2, he does receive a notable cameo in the Trick House section of the Yoshi Park 2 course where large paper cut out figures of him as well as Toad and Toadette (done in the artwork style of the Yoshi franchise of games) can be seen near the entrance.

Mario Tennis series

Mario Power Tennis / New Play Control! Mario Power Tennis

Toadsworth can be seen reffing a game in Mario Power Tennis

Toadsworth is the umpire in Mario Power Tennis and its New Play Control! version, where he sits on a high chair and watches characters play. He reminds "not to respond a serve before it bounced once", whenever it is done. During the opening cinematic, Toadsworth is seen at the upper barracks of the Peach Dome with Peach standing by his side during the night of the final match. After Toadsworth announces the remaining contenders, Mario and Luigi against Yoshi and Donkey Kong, Wario and Waluigi in league with Bowser arrive after Yoshi and Donkey Kong fail to show up, which catches Toadsworth off guard. Further turmoil ensues as explosives fly all over the venue, and Toadsworth catches a glimpse of a horde of explosives stowing aboard the underside of Bowser's balloon.

Mario Baseball series

The Mario Baseball series is Toadsworth's first playable appearance. Toadsworth is a playable character in both Mario Superstar Baseball and its sequel, Mario Super Sluggers. He is on Princess Peach's team, the "Peach Monarchs". Throughout the two games, he uses a larger version of his cane as his bat, unlike the other playable Toad characters who use regular baseball bats. He is a very skillful fielder in both games and has a great pitch, but he doesn't hit for power, doesn't run fast, and has low stamina. Despite his good pitching stats, Toadsworth's pitches tend to move slower than what most Toads can pull off.

During the opening cinematic of Mario Super Sluggers, Toadsworth is seen standing by Peach's side, greeting those who are about to arrive at the Baseball Kingdom on a yacht. In Challenge Mode, Toadsworth frequently worried about Peach's kidnapping and he constantly reminds the player to rescue her. He is first seen near a fountain that is later secured by the statue of Daisy. He watches over the statue, but eventually joins the team when Peach has been rescued. Toadsworth has good chemistry with Peach, Toad, Toadette, Baby Peach, and Pianta, while he has bad chemistry with Goomba, Paragoomba, and Bowser.

Mario Golf series

A statue of Toadsworth appears in Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour on Hole 7 of Peach's Castle Grounds, while Toadsworth himself physically appears in only Mario Golf: Advance Tour on Peach's Castle. A locker containing a fake moustache with his name on the back can also be found in a Marion Clubhouse locker room.

Yakuman DS

Toadsworth as an unlockable character
Toadsworth being unlocked in Yakuman DS

In Yakuman DS, Toadsworth is the first-ranked and most difficult opponent. He can also be unlocked by beating him in the game. This is Toadsworth's only playable appearance outside of the Mario Baseball series.

Mario Party series

Party Cruise from Mario Party 7
Toadsworth as the host in Mario Party 7

As a token of his appreciation for all that Mario and his friends have done for the Kingdom, Toadsworth organizes an extravagant cruise in traditional Mario Party fashion in Mario Party 7. He is also the host of the boards. However, the cruise is deterred by Bowser, who is furious about his exclusion from the guest list. Toadsworth also runs the Duty Free Shop in this game, where players can buy merchandise, view figures they purchased, listen to sounds, and view records. In the Neon Heights board, a cardboard cut-out of himself appears in the shooting game where if shot, the minigame ends and the player earns no coins.

In Mario Party: The Top 100, Toadsworth makes a cameo appearance in the Collection mode.

Super Princess Peach

Toadsworth reappears in Super Princess Peach, where he is seen accompanying Princess Peach on her stroll while the Koopa Troop attacks Peach's Castle and captures the Mario Bros. As Peach sets off to rescue them, Toadsworth initially objects but then gives her the umbrella Perry, whom he had bought from a shop before the events of the game, to accompany her. He is also a guitarist for the Peach Hit Five.

Super Smash Bros. series

In the Super Smash Bros. series, there are several items of Toadsworth. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, there is a trophy of him, as well as two stickers of him, both of which can applied to any fighter in The Subspace Emissary; one of the stickers, depicting Toadsworth's artwork from Super Mario Sunshine, boosts the attack power of its user by 10 points, while the other, depicting Toadsworth from Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, increases the user's launch power by 5 points. In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, there is another trophy of Toadsworth, unlockable by defeating at least eight fighters in Cruel Smash. In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Toadsworth appears as a Novice-class support spirit which occupies one support slot, and players equipped with the spirit will start battles with a Ramblin' Evil Mushroom. The puppet fighter of the Toadsworth spirit is Mario on the Princess Peach's Castle stage.

Fortune Street

Template:Quote2 While Toadsworth himself does not appear in Fortune Street, Toad provides reference to him throughout the game through his quotations. It is implied that Toadsworth may have some authority over Toad as he appears to be frightened of what Toadsworth would think of his choices at times throughout the game. One of Princess Peach's quotes mentions him as well, where she states that she may need to turn to Toadsworth for financial advice.

Other appearances

Play Nintendo

In Mario Reads Your Letters episodes 5 and 7 uploaded by Play Nintendo, Toadsworth's name appears as one of Mario's email contacts on his computer with the subject "Long time no see".[3][4]

Unused appearances

Mario Party 8

Toadsworth may have been planned to appear in Mario Party 8 as his model and two voice clips from Mario Party 7 remain unused in the game's files.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie

Toadsworth appears in early concept artwork for The Super Mario Bros. Movie.[5] The Toad General has a similar role to Toadsworth's in the final film.

General information

Physical appearance

Toadsworth is portrayed as an elderly Toad with a tan complexion and a beige cap with brown spots. He has a puffy, white mustache, although if the player looks in a locker in Mario Golf: Advance Tour, they find a fake mustache labeled "Toadsworth", jokingly implying that his facial hair is fake. Like other Toads, Toadsworth is short and stout. Despite his age, he is quite energetic. He also speaks with a southern English accent.

He wears a light purple vest with gold buttons that have Toad emblems on them. Layered on top of the vest is a purple, sleeveless jacket that hangs down like a tuxedo with a gold trim. He wears white bottoms underneath and brown, padded shoes like those of all other Toads'. He also wears small, black round glasses and a red bow-tie. He walks around using a stick-like cane that has a brown mushroom cap on top with beige spots on it.

In his younger form, he has a brown mustache, small, curious-looking eyebrows, and the same mushroom cap. His attire is more similar to that of other Toads, being a red vest with a golden trim baring his chest, along with his red bow-tie.

Personality

Toadsworth is a kind character who tries his best to help others, particularly Princess Peach, whom he cares for very deeply, having had a hand in raising her since she was a baby. Toadsworth constantly worries about Peach when she has been kidnapped by Bowser, and while Toadsworth is quick to panic and flee with the other Toads when danger arises, he sometimes tries to stay and protect the princess or offer advice to the Mario Bros. In Super Princess Peach, Toadsworth was originally hesitant to let Peach go to save Mario, out of fear for her safety. Toadsworth is known for addressing many other characters with the "Master" honorific due to his polite nature. Although kind overall, he does have his limits, as after the Shroob threat was over, he privately admits he's glad that his younger counterpart will be off his back, although denies claiming that when Toadsworth the Younger expresses suspicion of his true feelings toward him.

Powers and abilities

Toadsworth's cane appears to possess magical abilities, as in New Super Mario Bros., he could create ? Blocks with it. In addition, he is shown to be able to drive in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, but he has yet to be seen participating in a kart race. He is also skilled at playing mahjong, as seen in Yakuman DS, where he is the highest ranked opponent.

Relationship to Peach

Toadsworth alongside Princess Peach in the intro of Mario Power Tennis

There is much confusion surrounding Peach and Toadsworth's relationship. It is said on the official site for Super Mario Sunshine that he is Peach's father, which would make him Mushroom King.[citation needed] The page for Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time also says this.[6] Nevertheless, it has been stated in games and game booklets that Toadsworth is Peach's attaché and thus is subordinate to her. Additionally, in Mario Superstar Baseball, when naming all of the players on Peach's team, Lakitu says "And... your grandpa?! Oh, pardon me! Venerable Toadsworth!" While not made entirely clear, Lakitu may have at first been mistaken, but then corrected himself. Peach also addresses him as "Toadsworth" (not as "father" or "grandfather") in Super Mario Sunshine. Regardless of his position, he cares deeply for the Princess, very much in a fatherly manner, and has taken care of her since she was a baby, similar to Kamek and Bowser's relationship. They also have good chemistry with each other in the Mario Baseball series.

This fellow made his debut in Super Mario Sunshine. He's been Peach's faithful aide for many years, and he even has a suitably servantly name for the job. When he plays baseball, he steps up to the plate holding his stick instead of a bat. It seems the rules of baseball are pretty lax in Mario's world! (British English)

Template:Quote2 Toadsworth is an elderly Toad and Princess Peach's longtime steward, introduced in Super Mario Sunshine. He is 60 years old, according to an e-mail in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. He is constantly worrying about the princess and takes care of the Toads. He has an English accent and often utters old-fashioned English phrases like "Tally-ho!" and "Pip pip!", most of which made their debut in Mario Party 7. Before Toadsworth's introduction in Super Mario Sunshine, the Chancellor played a role very similar to his and was even similar in appearance.

History

Super Mario series

Super Mario Sunshine

Toadsworth along with Mario and Peach in Super Mario Sunshine

Toadsworth's first appearance is in Super Mario Sunshine where he accompanies Mario, Princess Peach, and an entourage of Toads to Isle Delfino for a vacation. While traveling there, he can be seen day dreaming about the relaxation that he can get at the island as well as about the roller coaster at Pinna Park that he is tempted to ride on, resulting in his ignoring Peach when she attempts to warn him of seeing a doppelganger of Mario in the background of the tour video for the island. However, upon arriving on the island's airstrip, he and the other vacationers find the small island covered with graffiti thanks to the mysterious fiend known as Shadow Mario (who eventually frames Mario of ruining the island).

After cleaning Delfino Airstrip, Mario and the group are taken to a courthouse on the mainland, where Mario is put on trial for vandalizing Isle Delfino. The prosecutor explains that someone who looks like Mario covered the island with graffiti, and that he is to blame. Peach and Toadsworth attempt to object, but are overruled, and Mario is found guilty. He is then forced to clean the island, as well as find all the Shine Sprites.

As Mario attempts to do so to clear his name, Toadsworth at first can be seen simply accompanying the Princess around the island. After she is kidnapped by Shadow Mario he can be found fretting and worrying in various locations. Often, he can be seen reminding Mario to go rescue the princess. After she is rescued, he and the other heroes can be seen finally enjoying the facilities at Isle Delfino as originally planned in the ending credits. Toadsworth presumably returns with the rest of the vacationers to the Mushroom Kingdom later on.

New Super Mario Bros.

Toadsworth models in the opening

Toadsworth replaces Toad as the host of Toad Houses in New Super Mario Bros. He gives out items to Mario or Luigi by conjuring up a Roulette Block with his wand. Some of the Toad Houses also give out extra lives to the Mario Bros. by having them play a card match up game. However, most of these houses require Mario (or Luigi) to pay 5 Star Coins in order to enter.

In the opening cutscene, multiple models of Toadsworth are used to create the illusion of Toads running around in a panic once the thundercloud strikes Peach's Castle.[2]

Mario & Luigi series

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga / Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions

Toadsworth and the others about to leave the Beanbean Kingdom

In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, Toadsworth makes a brief appearance in the beginning of the game where he presents Mario and Luigi with a Suitcase to take on their journey to the Beanbean Kingdom. Later he comes to the Beanbean Kingdom himself (along with Princess Peach). He also provides the Mario Bros. with a spare dress for the Princess just before they set off to Joke's End to rescue the Princess from Bowletta's clutches, anticipating the possibility that she might have damaged it in an attempt to escape. After a while, he spends his time with Peach in the Mushroom Embassy. He is shown near the end of the game to be good friends with Lady Lima.

Toadsworth reprises his role in the game's remake, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions.

Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time

See also: Toadsworth the Younger

Present day Toadsworth
Toadsworth the Younger Toadsworth

Toadsworth also appears in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, playing a larger role in this game than in its predecessor. He is with Mario and Luigi when Princess Peach takes an experimental trip back in time, and is paranoid that something terrible might happen. He eventually faints from shroomshock due to his excess worrying for the princess, creating a comedic scene of Mario getting a refreshroom for the elderly Toad to feel better. His fears later become justified, as when the time machine returns, a Junior Shrooboid is in it. He is soon attacked by the Shrooboid though Mario and Luigi eventually defeat it. He is still confused when he wakes up and accidentally pushes Mario and Luigi into a time hole. He later teams up with his younger self to teach the Bros. new moves (such as the Toadsworth Twist, Bros. Ball, etc.) and keep Baby Peach entertained while she stays in the future. Toadsworth is indirectly responsible for sending Mario and Luigi into the past from the start, as he had accidentally knocked Luigi into a time hole, causing Mario to go in after him. Near the end of the game, a Shroob character based on Toadsworth called Shroobsworth appears as a common enemy.

Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story / Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey

Mario and Luigi find Toadsworth in the Pump Works

Toadsworth returns in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and its Nintendo 3DS remake. He, along with many other Mushroom Kingdom residents, eventually get swallowed up by Bowser after Fawful tricks Bowser into eating the Vacuum Shroom. He is then found in Pump Works of Bowser's body where he must be rescued by the Mario Bros. Compared to the last game, his role is very small, appearing in various areas, mainly Toad Square. At first, he can often be seen sobbing for the Princess's well being after she is kidnapped by Fawful. After getting over the Princess's well being, and being assured that Mario and Luigi would save her, Toadsworth tries to stop moping and stay strong, and teaches the Mario Bros. about beans. He is shown to be good friends with Toadbert as well. Toadbert and Toadsworth are seen having some tea together while waiting for Bowser's back to heal.

Mario & Luigi: Dream Team

Toadsworth as he appears in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team.

Toadsworth appears in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, where he, Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, and the Toads are invited to Pi'illo Island for sightseeing. His role is even smaller than in the previous games and is mainly used for comic relief (him worrying about Peach and getting annoyed when Dr. Snoozemore falls asleep).

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Sprite of Toadsworth
Toadsworth in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Toadsworth accompanies Princess Peach on her trip to Rogueport during Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. He keeps Princess Peach very close to him, but ends up losing her. When Mario comes to Rogueport he meets a frantic Toadsworth who is incredibly worried about the missing Princess. Mario assures Toadsworth that he is going to save her, and Toadsworth spends the remainder of the game in Rogueport's Inn. In the ending he, the Mario Bros., and the Princess leave Rogueport on a boat as they head back to the Mushroom Kingdom.

The second RDM issue that Mario received stated that Toadsworth had frequently been seen with the cook Zess T. This issue of the RDM also reported that Zess T. said, "What's wrong with spending time with my little Toadle-toes?", referring to Toadsworth.

Mario Kart series

Mario Kart: Double Dash!!

Award Ceremony

Toadsworth makes a cameo in Mario Kart: Double Dash!! Whenever two characters win a cup, he drives the Parade Kart that takes them to their trophy. The kart he drives, the Parade Kart, can also be used in the game. He can also be seen in the audience of Waluigi Stadium alongside a green Toad with a blue vest, Donkey Kong Jr., a Hammer Bro, a red Shy Guy, and a Boo.

Mario Kart Arcade GP 2

While Toadsworth himself does not make an appearance in the arcade exclusive Mario Kart Arcade GP 2, he does receive a notable cameo in the Trick House section of the Yoshi Park 2 course where large paper cut out figures of him as well as Toad and Toadette (done in the artwork style of the Yoshi franchise of games) can be seen near the entrance.

Mario Tennis series

Mario Power Tennis / New Play Control! Mario Power Tennis

Toadsworth can be seen reffing a game in Mario Power Tennis

Toadsworth is the umpire in Mario Power Tennis and its New Play Control! version, where he sits on a high chair and watches characters play. He reminds "not to respond a serve before it bounced once", whenever it is done. During the opening cinematic, Toadsworth is seen at the upper barracks of the Peach Dome with Peach standing by his side during the night of the final match. After Toadsworth announces the remaining contenders, Mario and Luigi against Yoshi and Donkey Kong, Wario and Waluigi in league with Bowser arrive after Yoshi and Donkey Kong fail to show up, which catches Toadsworth off guard. Further turmoil ensues as explosives fly all over the venue, and Toadsworth catches a glimpse of a horde of explosives stowing aboard the underside of Bowser's balloon.

The Mario Baseball series is Toadsworth's first playable appearance. Toadsworth is a playable character in both Mario Superstar Baseball and its sequel, Mario Super Sluggers. He is on Princess Peach's team, the "Peach Monarchs". Throughout the two games, he uses a larger version of his cane as his bat, unlike the other playable Toad characters who use regular baseball bats. He is a very skillful fielder in both games and has a great pitch, but he doesn't hit for power, doesn't run fast, and has low stamina. Despite his good pitching stats, Toadsworth's pitches tend to move slower than what most Toads can pull off.

During the opening cinematic of Mario Super Sluggers, Toadsworth is seen standing by Peach's side, greeting those who are about to arrive at the Baseball Kingdom on a yacht. In Challenge Mode, Toadsworth frequently worried about Peach's kidnapping and he constantly reminds the player to rescue her. He is first seen near a fountain that is later secured by the statue of Daisy. He watches over the statue, but eventually joins the team when Peach has been rescued. Toadsworth has good chemistry with Peach, Toad, Toadette, Baby Peach, and Pianta, while he has bad chemistry with Goomba, Paragoomba, and Bowser.

Mario Golf series

A statue of Toadsworth appears in Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour on Hole 7 of Peach's Castle Grounds, while Toadsworth himself physically appears in only Mario Golf: Advance Tour on Peach's Castle. A locker containing a fake moustache with his name on the back can also be found in a Marion Clubhouse locker room.

Yakuman DS

Toadsworth as an unlockable character
Toadsworth being unlocked in Yakuman DS

In Yakuman DS, Toadsworth is the first-ranked and most difficult opponent. He can also be unlocked by beating him in the game. This is Toadsworth's only playable appearance outside of the Mario Baseball series.

Mario Party series

Party Cruise from Mario Party 7
Toadsworth as the host in Mario Party 7

As a token of his appreciation for all that Mario and his friends have done for the Kingdom, Toadsworth organizes an extravagant cruise in traditional Mario Party fashion in Mario Party 7. He is also the host of the boards. However, the cruise is deterred by Bowser, who is furious about his exclusion from the guest list. Toadsworth also runs the Duty Free Shop in this game, where players can buy merchandise, view figures they purchased, listen to sounds, and view records. In the Neon Heights board, a cardboard cut-out of himself appears in the shooting game where if shot, the minigame ends and the player earns no coins.

In Mario Party: The Top 100, Toadsworth makes a cameo appearance in the Collection mode.

Super Princess Peach

Toadsworth reappears in Super Princess Peach, where he is seen accompanying Princess Peach on her stroll while the Koopa Troop attacks Peach's Castle and captures the Mario Bros. As Peach sets off to rescue them, Toadsworth initially objects but then gives her the umbrella Perry, whom he had bought from a shop before the events of the game, to accompany her. He is also a guitarist for the Peach Hit Five.

Super Smash Bros. series

In the Super Smash Bros. series, there are several items of Toadsworth. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, there is a trophy of him, as well as two stickers of him, both of which can applied to any fighter in The Subspace Emissary; one of the stickers, depicting Toadsworth's artwork from Super Mario Sunshine, boosts the attack power of its user by 10 points, while the other, depicting Toadsworth from Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, increases the user's launch power by 5 points. In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, there is another trophy of Toadsworth, unlockable by defeating at least eight fighters in Cruel Smash. In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Toadsworth appears as a Novice-class support spirit which occupies one support slot, and players equipped with the spirit will start battles with a Ramblin' Evil Mushroom. The puppet fighter of the Toadsworth spirit is Mario on the Princess Peach's Castle stage.

Fortune Street

Template:Quote2 While Toadsworth himself does not appear in Fortune Street, Toad provides reference to him throughout the game through his quotations. It is implied that Toadsworth may have some authority over Toad as he appears to be frightened of what Toadsworth would think of his choices at times throughout the game. One of Princess Peach's quotes mentions him as well, where she states that she may need to turn to Toadsworth for financial advice.

Other appearances

Play Nintendo

In Mario Reads Your Letters episodes 5 and 7 uploaded by Play Nintendo, Toadsworth's name appears as one of Mario's email contacts on his computer with the subject "Long time no see".[3][4]

Unused appearances

Mario Party 8

Toadsworth may have been planned to appear in Mario Party 8 as his model and two voice clips from Mario Party 7 remain unused in the game's files.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie

Toadsworth appears in early concept artwork for The Super Mario Bros. Movie.[5] The Toad General has a similar role to Toadsworth's in the final film.

General information

Physical appearance

Toadsworth is portrayed as an elderly Toad with a tan complexion and a beige cap with brown spots. He has a puffy, white mustache, although if the player looks in a locker in Mario Golf: Advance Tour, they find a fake mustache labeled "Toadsworth", jokingly implying that his facial hair is fake. Like other Toads, Toadsworth is short and stout. Despite his age, he is quite energetic. He also speaks with a southern English accent.

He wears a light purple vest with gold buttons that have Toad emblems on them. Layered on top of the vest is a purple, sleeveless jacket that hangs down like a tuxedo with a gold trim. He wears white bottoms underneath and brown, padded shoes like those of all other Toads'. He also wears small, black round glasses and a red bow-tie. He walks around using a stick-like cane that has a brown mushroom cap on top with beige spots on it.

In his younger form, he has a brown mustache, small, curious-looking eyebrows, and the same mushroom cap. His attire is more similar to that of other Toads, being a red vest with a golden trim baring his chest, along with his red bow-tie.

Personality

Toadsworth is a kind character who tries his best to help others, particularly Princess Peach, whom he cares for very deeply, having had a hand in raising her since she was a baby. Toadsworth constantly worries about Peach when she has been kidnapped by Bowser, and while Toadsworth is quick to panic and flee with the other Toads when danger arises, he sometimes tries to stay and protect the princess or offer advice to the Mario Bros. In Super Princess Peach, Toadsworth was originally hesitant to let Peach go to save Mario, out of fear for her safety. Toadsworth is known for addressing many other characters with the "Master" honorific due to his polite nature. Although kind overall, he does have his limits, as after the Shroob threat was over, he privately admits he's glad that his younger counterpart will be off his back, although denies claiming that when Toadsworth the Younger expresses suspicion of his true feelings toward him.

Powers and abilities

Toadsworth's cane appears to possess magical abilities, as in New Super Mario Bros., he could create ? Blocks with it. In addition, he is shown to be able to drive in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, but he has yet to be seen participating in a kart race. He is also skilled at playing mahjong, as seen in Yakuman DS, where he is the highest ranked opponent.

Relationship to Peach

Toadsworth alongside Princess Peach in the intro of Mario Power Tennis

There is much confusion surrounding Peach and Toadsworth's relationship. It is said on the official site for Super Mario Sunshine that he is Peach's father, which would make him Mushroom King.[citation needed] The page for Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time also says this.[6] Nevertheless, it has been stated in games and game booklets that Toadsworth is Peach's attaché and thus is subordinate to her. Additionally, in Mario Superstar Baseball, when naming all of the players on Peach's team, Lakitu says "And... your grandpa?! Oh, pardon me! Venerable Toadsworth!" While not made entirely clear, Lakitu may have at first been mistaken, but then corrected himself. Peach also addresses him as "Toadsworth" (not as "father" or "grandfather") in Super Mario Sunshine. Regardless of his position, he cares deeply for the Princess, very much in a fatherly manner, and has taken care of her since she was a baby, similar to Kamek and Bowser's relationship. They also have good chemistry with each other in the Mario Baseball series.
