- “Pink porklet! Red nose-hair guy! Green nose-hair guy! Your attempts to get in our way are pathetic. It ends here!”
- —Ten, Mario & Luigi: Brothership[1]
Ten[2][3] is a member of the Extension Corps under Zokket in Mario & Luigi: Brothership. He is a lanky, purple miscreant who resembles a headphone jack composed of his head resembling a male connector and one of his arms resembling a female connector, giving him the general appearance of a stereotypical Japanese delinquent. His name comes from the second syllable of "extension" in reference to extension cords, with Ecks and Shun's names coming from the other two.
In battle, Ten attacks by creating a purple energy ball with his right arm and rides on it to ram into Mario and Luigi, who have to use hammer strikes to repel it. If the ball that Ten was riding on is hit enough times, the ball will vanish and he will fall.
