Mario is probably one of the most popular video-game characters ever. The red cap, blue over-alls, and bushy moustache are this hero’s trademark. He has been all the way from Toad Town to Star Haven to Lava Lava Island and back again. He has rescued Princess Peach from Bowser countless times. This brave character is ready to jump into action any time.

The beautiful Princess Peach has been captured by her secret admirer, Bowser, too many times to count. She has been rescued by Mario every time. She runs her kingdom with wisdom and honesty. Her faithful servant, Toad, rarely leaves her side. Princess Peach is an excellent ruler and her subjects adore her.

Luigi is Mario’s brother. They are somewhat alike when it comes to looks. The over-alls, the moustache, the big belly. But when it comes to adventure, Luigi cowers in fear! Although he loves his brother and wishes he could be idolized and fearless like him, he just isn’t cut out for the job. He is capable of being a hero, he’s strong and quick, he’s just too afraid!

Bowser is the number one baddie in the Nintendo world. Kidnapping Princess Peach and terrorizing the townspeople has made this monster famous. His appearance is scary, and he can breathe fire, too! His faithful servants include koopa troopas, goombas, and lots of others. He’s tough, but Mario beats him every time!

Link is the brave hero in the kingdom of Hyrule. His green tunic and his Mater’s Sword have shown up in almost every game he has appeared in. He has rescued Zelda and destroyed his toughest enemy, Ganondorf, many times. Hyrule owes a lot to the brave guy. Without him, Zelda would be gone and Ganondorf would be king!

Zelda is the respected princess of the kingdom of Hyrule. An evil Geurodo man from the desert named Ganondorf kidnaps her and tries to take over her throne many times. The hero of Zelda’s kingdom, Link, comes to her aid and the aid of her kingdom every time. She has mystical powers passed down through the royal family for generations. No one knows, but she is also Sheik, a powerful Sheikah. The Sheikah are a powerful race who swore loyalty to Hyrule centuries ago.
