Editing Mario (section)

==Characters==
'''Mario''', half-jokingly named "Mario Mario" in the infamously awful 90s live-action movie... yes, that was a thing... Mario is the short but adventurous, curious, resourceful and heroic plumber turned defender of the Mushroom Kingdom, he never loses hope, and always strives to achieve his hopes, apart from the fact that he is very protective of Luigi, and always takes care of him on many occasions, sometimes may act impulsively, if they provoke or annoy their friends or brother, but always is a selfless guy, since he always helps everyone without having anything in return.

'''Luigi''', aka "Luigi Mario", is Mario's quirky younger brother, although taller than his sibling. Luigi is optimistic like his brother but Compared to Mario, Luigi is more coward, silly and clumsy as well as being prone to bad luck, But despite being a coward and having misfortunes, he never gives up, and he always remains optimistic and hopeful, even if he is scared or terrified. He's never really managed to get out of Mario's shadow, although at least one of the Paper Mario games implies he goes off on his own adventures, he is an equal adventuring party buddy in the "Mario & Luigi" games series, and he does have his own trilogy of games, "Luigi's Mansion", which revolves around Luigi busting ghosts.

'''Princess Peach Toadstool''' is the ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom. She is a sweet, kind, sympathetic and caring princess, who is always affectionate with all her subjects. Though she has been a playable secondary character in a few games, and did get to be the hero once, she's mostly just your iconic Damsel In Distress. She was originally called just "Princess Toadstool", but nowadays people call her "Princess Peach" instead. 

'''Princess Daisy''' began as a low effort hair & palette swap of Peach for the Game Boy game ''Super Mario Land''. She then appeared in the occasional game that needed a second female character and eventually became a love interest for Luigi, and has never really evolved beyond that. She's pretty loud, extroverted, energetic, headstrong, spunky and competitive and not afraid to be herself, Daisy is a princess tomboy who becomes very rough and can be a short-temperament. Unfortunately, she doesn't appear in nearly enough games to establish this independently.

'''Rosalina''' is technically the third Mario princess(though never ''called'' Princess, she has the dress and crown), debuting in ''Super Mario Galaxy'', where she helped Mario search the cosmos to rescue Peach and stop Bowser from remaking the universe. She is apparently immortal, and cares for the Lumas (star-like creatures that transform into solar systems and other cosmic phenomena), effectively making her the closest thing the Mario universe has to a God(dess). Despite only really featuring in one game, she has naturally proven very popular, and appears in spin-offs all over the place. 

'''Pauline''' is the woman that Mario rescued from Donkey Kong back in the day, so she's basically his ex-girlfriend. She re-appeared in the Game Boy Color Donkey Kong games, where it's shown that she and Mario are still good friends. Then she ''re''-re-appeared in ''Super Mario Odyssey'' as the Mayor of New Donk City, where she showed that she can sing too.  

'''King Bowser Koopa''', more commonly known these days as simply "Bowser", is a hulking turtle-like [[dragon]] and the leader of his own kingdom who wants to conquer the Mushroom Kingdom. He is shown to have something of a twisted crush on Princess Peach. Like her, he used to be known as King Koopa, but is nowadays just called Bowser. In the game Super Mario Bros. 3, he gained a cabal of elite underlings in the form of seven juvenile Bowser-esque creatures called the Koopalings; these were originally portrayed as his children, a state they continued into the Super Mario World game, but afterwards they were unceremoniously replaced by a mini-Bowser called "Bowser Jr."; whilst the Koopalings would eventually be brought back into canon, they lost their status as Bowser's sons (and one daughter). Is really dumb moments with his son shown him being a good dad. Despite being Mario's sworn enemy, he will join him go kart races, parties, playing sports, which [[Kharn| makes him seem like he's a great guy to be around]] when he's not being evil.

'''Bowser Jr. and the Koopalings:''' The Koopalings -- '''Larry Koopa''', '''Morton Koopa Jr.''', '''Wendy O. Koopa''', '''Iggy Koopa''', '''Lemmy Koopa''', '''Roy Koopa''', and '''Ludwig Von Koopa'''; were introduced in ''Super Mario Bros 3'', where they were portrayed as Bowser's children. They repeated this role in ''Super Mario World'', showed up in a few spinoffs, then seemed to drop off the face of the Earth. Then when ''Super Mario Sunshine'' came out, Bowser popped up with only one child, '''Bowser Jr''', who served as the villain for most of that game. Then the Koopalings started appearing again, starting in the ''Mario & Luigi'' spinoffs. Current Nintendo canon(such as it is in a loose series like this) is that Junior is Bowser's only child, while the Koopalings are high-ranking minions. Ironically, they are often seen working under Junior, and in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' games even serve as Junior's alt colors.

Long story short, one of the few good things to come out of the years just prior to 2020 was a Mario meme. After the release of Super Mario Odyssey, which ends with both Mario and Bowser proposing to Princess Peach, only for her to reject them both, a later trailer for an upcoming Mario game revealed a new powerup; the Super Crown, which would transform Toadette into a near-clone of Princess Peach.

Cue one madlad drawing a short comic of Bowser and Mario, humiliated by Peach's ''Odyssey'' rejection, coming up with a new plan; Bowser pulls out a Super Crown, and Mario starts dating Bowser, now a hot half-Koopa half-Peach monstergirl.

The internet ''exploded'' over these, and the meme, whilst it ultimately burned out, eventually got so huge that Nintendo put forth an official declaration that they would ''not'' be making Bowsette canon(it would later be leaked that Nintendo actually ''had'' toyed with the idea on their own first via having Bowser possess Peach using ''Odyssey's'' capture mechanic). Too late to do anything about the huge array of Bowsette or other Super Crown-transformed fanart, or the Bowsette & Mario webcomic, of course.
