Minor Characters

B

• Birdo
  • HP: 777, Attack: 160, Defense: 130, MagicAttack: 6, Magic Defense: 100
  • Birdo is found in Nimbus Palace, where she is still in her egg. She offers to give Mario and his friends the Castle Key 2 if they agree to play with her, by which she means a battle. First in the battle Mario's group must devote their attacks to cracking Birdo's egg open. After being freed, Birdo begins fighting back. She holds up her promise and surrenders the key after being defeated, but she also warns Mario not to forget about her.
• Boomer
  • HP: 2000, Attack: 200, Defense: 140, Magic Attack: 35, Magic Defense: 26
  • Boomer is a deadly, cannon-like machine bult by Smithy in his factory. Boomer is hotheaded but honorable. Despite his cannon-head, he actually wields a sword that he uses to go samurai on opponents. Boomer's weaknesses change with color; when his armor is red he is weak to special attacks, and when it is blue he is vulnerable to normal attacks. He battles Mario's group on the chandeliers of Bowser's Keep (similar to Bowser in the beginning of the game), and is the last obstacle prior to facing Exor. After being defeated, Boomer accepts the defeat with honor but rejects Mario's sympathy and makes his Chandeli-ho drop him to his doom.
• Boshi
  • Boshi is a blue punk Yoshi with a sweet tooth for Yoshi Cookies. He takes over the Mushroom Derby racetrack on Yo'ster Isle and forces only one Yoshi to race him at a time with Yoshi Cookies as wagering stakes. And since Boshi never loses, no one can make him think otherwise- until Mario arrives and helps Yoshi conquer Boshi. Boshi then gives up and lets all the Yoshis join in on the races. He is last seen walking away with Croco in the ending.

He oversees the production of Smithy's new army and is often accompanied by a pair of Mad Mallet bodyguards. The Clerk faces the last challenge of his career one day when he meets with Mario and Mallow as they enter the factory. The Clerk doesn't recognize either of them, but when Mallow threatens him to close down the factory Clerk retaliates by attacking them. The Clerk was destroyed in the ensuing battle.

Count Down unleashes a wide variety of techniques depending on what time it is. And the two bells on his head, the Ding-a-Lings, also have powers of their own.

  • HP: 4096, Attack: 250, Defense: 100, Magic Attack: 100, Magic Defense: 80
  • An optional boss who is the game's most powerful enemy and is modelled after a generic Final Fantasy boss. Culex's lair can only be accessed by unlocking a door in Monstro Town using the Shiny Stone. He hails from another dimension and is the Dark Knight of Vanda, in service of the Black Mage. When Mario meets Culex, he was preparing to return to his own dimension due to finding Mario's dimension uninhabitable for him, but agreed to taken on the dimension's strongest warrior (i.e. Mario) beforehand. In battle Culex is accompanied by four elemental crystals. After being defeated, Culex rewards Mario with a Quartz Charm and acknowledges Mario as a comrade-in-arms before returning to his home dimension.

• Director
  • HP: 1000, Attack: 190, Defense: 120, Magic Attack: 57, Magic Defense: 80
  • Another of the officials in Smithy's Factory, the Director is similar to the rest of the Factory Staff and is accompanied by Poundettes in battle. Mario and Princess Peach confront him as they make their way through Smithy's Factory. Peach pleads with him to stop creating all these harmful machines, but the Director refuses and engages the group in battle. The Director's attempt to melt Mario and his group down so that production may continue failed, and he was destroyed.
• Dodo
  • HP: 1000/800, Attack: 140, Defense: 100, Magic Attack: 9, Magic Defnese: 60

There are two optional chances to battle Dodo before the final battle with Valentina (first if Dodo discovers Mario is not a statue, and the second battle when Dodo is being chased from Nimbus Palace, although there is a Super Star nearby that can be used to defeat him automatically for that battle). In the final battle, Dodo fights alongside Valentina. At one point he abducts one of Mario's partners (whoever is in the center) for a one-on-one battle.
