With currently four Smash Tournaments under his overalls, along with the ever increasing consistency of his beloved Princess Peach being kidnapped by the terrible King Bowser, Mario has taken his status and capabilities much more seriously then ever before. He has grown more gritty, as well as straight forward in nature, being often the first to head straight into the field of battle with aggressive determination to secure the victory. Yet while he's perfectly content in fighting alone, he also is very happy to cooperate with other teammates, often finding himself within roles of leadership. He'll do anything to help them out and never tries to leave anyone else behind. And god forbid for any who attempt to harm the ones closest to him - such as his brother, Luigi and the love-of-his-life, Princess Peach. [b][color=ed1c24][u]Background:[/u][/color][/b] The poster child of the Smash Community, Mario was a character that had been popular since his arrival into the tournament ring. Well known for his heroic efforts in the Mushroom Kingdom, most notably with saving Princess Peach countless of times from the great and terrible King Bowser Koopa, he and his brother Luigi were prime choices when picking fighters for the first Smash Tournament. In fact, their titles as the "Super Mario Bros" inspired the name of the "Super Smash Bros" tournaments even prior towards the first. Mario's involvement from the beginning of the Smash tournaments had made him see various fighters join the rosters, as well as some leaving the scene before returning in one form or another. He fought against various opponents that wielded fighting styles unlike his own and weaponry that should trump his skills as an effective fighter. However, simple as he may be, his determination to win was monumental in having him win the first tournament. For every opponent he faced, he began to grow more knowledgable about their powers and abilities, as well as utilizing any weak-spaces that they may reveal in their defenses. Yet even when basking in victory or planted alone within the bleachers, the plumber was always incredibly respectful towards the opponents he fought - even to those that he considers enemies or opponents to his vision. Even his capabilities outside of the Smash Community has seen him go on whole entire adventures to save those that need saving. Whether saving the Princess locally, to helping a foreign kingdom, and even saving the divine sanctuary located by the stars, Mario never backs down from a good quest. Of course, even though he doesn't mind most of his adventures, there are times where he often gets tired of these sorts of things and often invites both friends and foes for local competitions, such as kart-racing, sport tournaments, and even "Party" games, all in good-fun. Now Mario faces his biggest adventure yet within the world of light! Having been freed from the possession of Galeem's influence by his old friend Geno, the plumber now helps the ever growing resistance to free their worlds from the grasp of the divine enemy. And he's going to smash through anything that gets in their way.

This fire can also slightly enhance his attacks to issue fire-based punches. [/list] [b][color=ed1c24][u]Strengths:[/u][/color][/b] [list] [*][color=ed1c24][b]Impressive Strength:[/b][/color] Despite his stocky stature, Mario's been well-known to be an incredibly strong fighter. His melee punches are strong enough to break through solid concrete walls and has been known to carry and throw characters double and even triple his size. [*][color=ed1c24][b]Surprising Agility:[/b][/color] Mario sports an incredibly acrobatic move set when battling his opponents. He's always jumping and dodging attacks all over the place, never staying in one spot for long. He uses this to overwhelm his opponent and go in for a fury of attacks when their weak spots are exposed. [*][color=ed1c24][b]Fire Mastery:[/b][/color] Mario's affinity for fire had been a staple since the beginning. He can create fire balls from his hands and enhance his melee strikes to issue fire-based attacks. [/list] [b][color=ed1c24][u]Weaknesses:[/u][/color][/b] [list] [*][color=ed1c24][b]Below-Average Durability:[/b][/color] While Mario can take a descent beating, his durability compared to other fighters is more on the lacking side. Considering he only wears his traditional overalls and shirt, he's somewhat more vulnerable than most. [*][color=ed1c24][b]Self-Sacrificing:[/b][/color] When Mario jumps into battle, he will give all that he has until the very end. He usually doesn't back down from a fight and is committed to beating his opponent to a pulp. Of course, when engaged in opponents way stronger than him, this could serve as a death sentence to him. Yet even against these odds, Mario will do all he can to assure the safety of his allies, even if he has to sacrifice himself in the process. He'll gladly take hits and do work for allies in battle, potentially disrupting their strategies or taking himself out of the battle early. The only way he has lived for so long was with the interference of his allies helping him out. But what happens if his friends are too late to save him...? [*][color=ed1c24][b]Fists First, Talk Later:[/b][/color] When possessing doubt towards someone he doesn't trust, Mario often wants to end the battle quickly by getting straight to the punch (literally). He has heard evil plans from various opponents over the years and just wants to move on - even if he sacrifices getting important information.

Their brotherly love has never been stronger than it has been now. Whilst their brotherly rivalry does occasionally get in the way at times, Mario vows to protect Luigi no matter the cost - even if it costs him his own life. [*][color=ed1c24][b]Princess Peach:[/b][/color] Often the damsel-in-distress, Mario's love is always being kidnapped by Bowser or some other force of evil that wants to exploit her. Whilst Peach had saved him once before, it is often the case that Mario has to save her time and time again, although is always rewarded for his stupendous efforts. Even then, Mario's love for Peach never falters - no matter how many times he saves her. [*][color=ed1c24][b]Sonic:[/b][/color] Once bitter rivals representing their pride as flagship mascots, both the plumber and the blue hedgehog had since become close friends. When off the Smash Community, they're known to gather up their friends and compete at the Olympic games since 2007.
