She Has A Sister?!
Peach, the fantastic and caring character, who always must be rescued from Bowser by Mario, is revealing a daring secret that you might not even known. As said, Princess Peach has a beloved sister that appears in Wii games such as Mario Kart. Nevertheless, her name is Princess Rosalina, the total opposite color of Princess Peach, not a wild, kissing pink, but a sea blue, calm, and gentle. Princess Rosalina was adopted first by a Luma, a very fat-like star that roams throughout space. Once Princess Rosalina grew up, she became the watch-person over comets and stars, protecting them. Princess Rosalina also protects the Lumas, because of their generosity of adopting her in the first place. There have been rumors that Princess Peach and Princess Rosalina are not even sisters, just because of their distinct personality and traits. But, to the iElixa team, we think that they are the cutest couple of sisters even known to the game world. Other rumors have spread that Princess Peach and Princess Daisy are more of sisters, since they appear together in almost every game. But while Peach is more of a gentle, classic character, and Daisy is more sporty and athlete at things, thus shown all over in most games, we iElixa team think that they are not so much besties as sisters as with Princess Rosalina. So without further ado, check out pictures of Princess Rosalina along with Princess Peach to see if you can see the similarities and differences.

Or, Could It Be Possibly Be Daisy?
Or, could Princess Daisy be Peach's secret sister? Daisy, a highly energetic pal who loves sports, could be related to Princess Peach. Or course, they appear in every game, but could it be true? Princess Peach is/ruling the Mushroom Kingdom, thus her real name Peach Toadstool. Princess Peach is colored pink for her feminine personalaity, as well as cute and stubborn/serious at the same time. Daisy, on the other hand, is ruler of Sarasa Land, a part of the Mushroom Kingdom. She's known as a tomboy, her colors yellow, orange, and green. Her special power is flower-power, since Princess Peach is ruler of the full Mushroom Kingdom and has the power of revealing secrets as well as capturing and sending special items to everyone such as Mario for missions and quests. They both appear together in so many games, becoming best friends over time. Rumors have said that they are both sisters but from different parts of the Mushroom Kingdom. But, why would Princess Peach get the whole kingdom and Princess Daisy a part of it? This has been posted on many fourms, arguments over all three princesses. But to the iElixa team, we consider then as cousins, fifty fifty for both sides. Romance is also floating in the air for the princesses. As a fact, everyone knows that Princess Peach and Mario are in love with each other. But would about Princess Daisy and Luigi? Yep, you've guessed right. Daisy might not know this, but Luigi has a secret romance crush as well as feelings for Daisy, hoping that one day he might be able to recue her just as Mario does for Peach. It is also said that Waluigi, the Mario Brothers secret, yet not so evil brother, by her characteristics, is also showing feelings for Daisy, making it competitive for Luigi and also putting him down. So, are they sisters, or are they cousins? It's your turn to decide!

The Mushroom Gang!Toad Mushroom, helper and clue-giver to Mario and Luigi on their quests! He's someone who's always irresistible to anyone by his cuteness and effort to help. Like always, in any game or story, something happens to Princess Peach, cauing Toad to be the first one to talk to, who will fill you in with the tragedy. This shows his cowardness, showing that he doesn't want to be invloved with the mystery of Peach, so he just stands by and fills in. But like always, he is one of the cleverest of them all. This can be shown when in the game, Toad will give you special items and lucky numbers and games to help you get powered up for the next level. He's just like a person who gives out candy to anyone willing to help him. But at most times he's cheerful, strong and humble as Mario and Luigi when it comes to going with them on a mission. Along with that, he has a favorite mushroom GIRL, Toadette! She's fun, friendly, and is all about Toad! She only appears in the newest games with the Mushroom Guy. Check her out!

Legend of Toadsworth! As we all know the Mushroom Guy, he sometimes can keep secrets very well lost.... to himself. We "interviewed" him and got him to spill out his secret: the Legend of Toadsworth. Toadsworth, the oldie on the right, appears faintly in most games. He is usually in the corner ready to burst with panic when he sees it. Who is he and what's his personality like? First, he is the "steward" (manages the property of) for Princess Peach and her lovely home. When he's not with Princess Peach, he's out to relax or do some financial paperwork. Second, his personality is all in crumbs! Little tidbits to this and that, he almost agrees with anyone. You might as well call him the guy who's on both sides! He mostly agrees upon vacation affairs, as he can dream about himself relaxing on a fold-up chair and reading a classic book. Even though he can seriously get annoyed, his eyes are all on Peach as he tries to keep her safe from harm. His "signature" look consists of a brown spotted and creme colored mushroom cap, as well as black glasses and a small white beard. He also carries around a staff that's mushroom cap is the exact opposite as his very own! He wears a purple and gold-trimmed vest, lavender button-up shirt with golden buttons, a red bow in the top center, and what appears to be a white pair of pants. His feet are same to any other mushroom: brown with a hint of polish-ness. When a mushroom gets old, it's mushroom "cap" will turn to a brownie-cream color, as which you can see Toadsworth as. So as respectively as we can say it, Toadsworth appears obviously to have come upon old age. Rumors have spread saying that since Toadsworth and Peach has such high relationships, Toadsworth is the father of Peach, thus calling him King Toadstool. We apparently, do not believe this; the truth of this rumor only comes from the voice of Mushroom Guy. He still hasn't answered our question, so we take that as a "no". Check out the "old" Toadsworth, and the "young" Toadsworth. The young Toadsworth was not mentioned in any game, but was only drawn out to symbolize the before and after of mushrooms!

Simply Drawn Out!
Notice the color of the vest, his eyebrows (sharp-minded), his glasses, his beard, and the disappearance of the staff. Also notice the mushroom caps are still the same color because when you turn into an adult, the color of your mushroom cap will "wilt" to a brown color. (In real life, young mushrooms are NOT brown, but when they are fully grown, they are a pale creme and brown color. Relate this explanation to the phases of young and old age for mushrooms. See the compare and contrast?)
Captain Syrup - A pirate who is next in line to being greedy like Wario! ----> |
Who is Mario Really Trying to Save? When Mario first came out long ago before we even knew it, we thought he had to save Princess Peach. But after a little researching, we figured out who he was really going for. Pauline, a normal citizen, not even close to to being a princess, was Mario's original girlfriend. She first had blonde hair, similar to Princess Peach's and wore a torn pink dress and pink ankle-strapped pumps. We were unable to find the before picture but we have an after picture on the left. To present day, Pauline now is lavender-eyed, has flowing and long burgundy hair, and has pale skin. Her eyes are very large with long and slanted eyelashes that define themselves from dark to curvy to thin. As shown as the left, she wears a lot of makeup, mostly purple eyeshadow to define her eyes. She also wears golden earrings and red lipstick, and to our guess, probably nail polish.... in the color red. She is very tall and looks like she lives in full luxury, her dress is now red instead pink and her shoes now black instead of pink. After looking up on the all-time friend "Wikipedia", we found out that she is very similar to another character that was developed in the past. Captain Syrup, leader of a pirate group, really looks familiar with Pauline. The hair is almost the same color, same pale skin, and almost same facial expressions! Was Captain Syrup used as a "sketch" to "model" Pauline? Check out it for yourself!

Is Birdo Mean or Nice? Its time to get things straight for Birdo. Birdo, named ater the original species, appears in ALL the games. Ranging from the very first game for nintendo, all the way to present day Mario Sports and Adventures, Birdo is always there. But with who? Birdo is a close resemblence to Yoshi and has a high relationship with him. But in the beginning, she was not very nice. In the nintendo games, she acted as a enemy, shooting eggs from her mouth to hit others. She also has the ability to shoot fire balls and suck things up into her snout like a vacuum. But as time moved on, her personality changed and she became a high partner for Yoshi when it came to competitions and battles. Like anyone else, she has her own species, obviously called Birdo. Same for Yoshi, there are multiple types of colors that can be found all around the Mario world. She wears a ring on her left hand and huge red bow. She also applies purple eyeshadow to compliment her pinkish skin. She has two birthmarks at the bottom corner of her head and seems to look like a "dinosaur", oddly looking like Yoshi. She is friends with Daisy, Toadette, and for some reason, Petey the Piranha. Birdo is very confident in herself and dreams of becoming a Superstar (Mario term for being an identified hero). She is very flirty and has crushes and relationships throughout her whole love life. It is said that she can't choose between Yoshi and Popple, a sneaky thief. Birdo's choice is someone who is honest and fun like Yoshi, or a sneaky little thief whom she can get expensive stuff from like Popple. But who will it be? Other than that, there once again is a rumor going on, this time about her gender. It is said that he likes to be called Birdetta, and likes to wear a red bow on top of his head and shoot eggs and fire from his mouth. We seriously do not believe that because why is he pink? And why such high relationships, with guys?

Birdo's Relations with Yoshi
Petey the Piranha This, is Petey Piranha. This might be Birdo's best friend, but to others, he is very mean. Like most know in each and every mario game, he shoots out fire and tries to make you use all of your lives with Mario of Luigi. But sometimes, he is very sweet. Not sweet as in nice, but no fires comes out of him, which most characters will be relieved when it happens. He is prime friends with Bowser, more or likely to be his loyal follower. His is plotted to "burn" out players and give them bad luck when it comes to completing an adventure. He is very tall and tough, and is a bit clumsy. Don't those spotted red pants make him look like a girl? He is a omnivore (eats all plants and animals) and is almost hungry all the time. He has the abililty to fly with his leaves (arms) and when it comes to defending himself, he shoots out fire. He also has little sense of humor when it comes to shooting people and laughing at them. Most of the time, he will make a joke for how lame you are to approach him because he can shoot fire at you either way! Or can he? Players are finding new ways to destoy his ability of fire and to make him speechless. Besides that, he has fat green lips, a red spotted top, orange/yellow petals, spikey arms, a green spotted belly, and cone-like legs along with the red spotted underwear/pants that he wears. How fun is he!

The Evil Enemy At last, we arrive to the FULL force that caused this game to erupt with adventure! Bowser, a typical villian who has the goal to take over Mushroom Kingdom. To do that, he must capture Princess Peach. Of course, Mario and Luigi arrive to save the day, but for some players, they are not able to achieve the goal of saving Peach because the level of hardness Bowser is put up to. The places he takes Peach is different in every game, and his personality ranges from game to game depending on the main goal of the whole story. He is a tyrant who has threatened hundred of lives over the past releases of each and every Mario game. To make Bowser's plans work completely, he himself creates machinery and uses magic to get what he wants. Most of his plans are pure genius, and work perfectly. But there is always and end to them. Besides the anger and hatred inside of him, he gets annoyed by Mario and Luigi and their "companions". He is fed up that every one of his plans are burnt and he has nothing to do other than to make up ANOTHER plan again and again. Bowser is huge and strong, a green-shelled Koopa that isn't afraid of anything. His hair and bushy eyebrows are a bright fiery orange as he has small horns and spikes on his shell. He wears 2 spiked collars on each of his arms, and one on his neck and his tail, arms, and legs are a sour yellow. He also has red eyes which makes his character come out even more and sharp teeth to show off his madness. Bowser has many abilities, since he is the "King" of the Koopas. His signature ability consists of shooting fire and other deadly weapons as well as shell spikes and hammers that can be thrown at a player to slow them down. He can also run fast and jump hundreds of feet into the air to get away from someone. Along with that, he uses magic to gain stars for his staff and transform himself into anything that he needs. He family consists of seven Kooplings, most famous from all of them Bowser Jr., and has a caretaker who sends notes here and there. Would YOU want to meet him?
