Character Lore 4: The Mario Brothers
Mario and Luigi are some of the few humans left on Amarioca. They both reside in the same house on a Grassland hill.
Birth and Childhood
It was first thought that Hooma eternally slumbered. He however kept two scales just in case. He woke up and went to check on his creation on the Mario World. Things had drastically changed since he slumbered. The human population dramatically decreased at the point they could not even fill a single land. A new race was fighting against itself for an unknown reason. Hooma had to do something but he could not do anything that would change something right now. He spotted an island were dinosaurs lived and used his last scales to create Mario and Luigi.
The brothers, as babies, were found by a Yoshi that raised them until the island proved to be insufficient for any human. The small family left the family and reached the Mainland. While the Yoshi was hired as a nanny, the Mario brothers met a girl of their age named Peach. They even met a very young Daisy too. The brothers were raised in a much better environment than back at the island. They had a normal education and made many friends.
New Home
Eventually, the Mario brothers became adults and wanted their own house. Their adoptive father, now named Gonzales, built them a house on a hill in Grassland. The two brothers loved the house. They first worked as plumbers and later on they would work new jobs, do sports and hang out with Peach and Daisy. Though, they met a new face, a strange looking koopa, who kidnapped Peach. Mario and Luigi travelled through the Mainland to find her back. This proved to be harder than expected as the other lands went against them. In the end, fortunately, they prevailed and managed to get to the kingdom where Peach was brought. After a heated fight between the Mario brothers and the Koopa King, an unknown threat took the opportunity to attempt to get rid of the strongest fighters of the Mainland.
The Smith War
The unknown threat's plan failed. Mario and Luigi were sent in Pipeland while the others went further away on the Mainland. Luigi, too hurt to help his big brother, had to be carried by Mario. In their travel, they met Geno, a puppet claiming to know a way to restore the world. The brothers did not believe him at first until the puppet showed them what happened to their world. In this dire situation, the small group teamed up with Peach and made a temporary alliance with Bowser. Gonzales even joined them and they all returned to the Koopa Castle, now inhabited by the threat known as Smithy. In one of the most epic fights in history, they managed to defeat Smithy but, alas, had a price. Gonzales had to sacrifice himself to protect his children. Geno then used his life and the seven stars to remove all the factories Smithy implanted on the Mainland. In the aftermath, the new heroes inaugurated a statue to commemorate Gonzales and another one to credit Geno for having saved the world. The Mainland was then named Amarioca after Mario while the world was named the Mario World.
Following Events
After the Smith War, Mario and Luigi explored the world on their own but separate way. It was Luigi's decision to be without Mario because he felt he did not contribute to stop the Smith War as much as his big brother or the other heroes of Amarioca did and wanted to become stronger on his own.
Mairo went to Sarasia to meet a childhood friend, Daisy. He was shocked to find out she was kidnapped by an unknown force. Suspecting to be Smithy again, Mario did not hesitate to venture through this new continent in search of Daisy. When he finally found the culprit, he was surprised. The kidnapper was very small, even smaller than Mario. Though, he was quite threatening with his intimidating voice, his boastful attitude and his space ship. Fortunately, for our hero, he managed to defeat the alien but Daisy begged him to let the alien go. With Daisy's request, Mario let the alien go, never to be seen in a long time. He also met a few fans including two other humans that did their best to impersonate the jumpmand and his little brother.
Luigi stayed in Amarioca. He explored the lands in search of guidance to make himself better at facing conflicts. He stumbled across an abandoned mansion where he met a human named Elvin Gadd. The old man proposed him to help him get rid of the boos which posed a threat to mankind. Luigi agreed and received a modified vacuum to fight the boos. He met King Boo, an arrogant specter not much different from the others. The king surrendered and begged for mercy. Luigi obliged but arrested him. The boo king was then put to conditional freedom.
Years passed. The heroes of Amarioca, along with Luigi and Daisy, gathered to start an expedition to Obeanie. As they travelled to the new continent, their ship was attacked by an old witch with her assistant. The crew fell off the ship into Obeanie. Luckily, Mario and Luigi were together and found their way to civilization where Peach and Daisy landed. It took them a while however to find Bowser again and they were all shocked when he showed up with an egg. The heroes found their attacker and put an end to her madness by sending her to the Obeanian authority. The heroes then returned to Amarioca.
Today, Mario and Luigi live in their house on a Grassland hill. In addition of still being plumbers, they had new jobs.
Mario founded an organisation named Mario Automobile Association or MAA for short to regulate rules regarding vehicles. He also owns two businesses, Mario Motor and Mario Workgear.
Luigi owns a business named Luigi Gusters.
Both plumbers still watches over Amarioca to protect it from any inner or outer threat that would dare desecrate their homeland. Recently, they have been meeting their friends concerning a new threat for the Mario World and a plan named Operation: Zombie Heartbreaker.
Appearance
Mario and Luigi wear the same clothes albeit with one difference. They both wear blue overalls with brown shoes, white gloves, a shirt and a cap but Mario's shirt and cap are red while Luigi's are green. Luigi is taller and thinner than Mario. They have brown hairs and black mustaches shaped differently.
Personnality
Mario does not speak. He uses a standard form of sign language to communicate with others, a common trait among silent individuals. Despite that, he does not understand the athleans' sign language. He is a cheerful and versatile person. He is often seen raising people's morale and is more on the front line. He has a crush on Peach but fears that his title of commoner will prevent him to marry her. Despite his body shape, he exercises a lot and encourages his friends to do the same.
Luigi, on the other hand, is a more timid person. He is also scaredy but can muster his courage to face his biggest fears which include, without limiting itself to, ghosts, drakoopas and darkness. Though he does not hate drakoopas, their imposing appearance scares Luigi. He has a crush on Daisy but also shares the same fear of Mario that he will not be able to marry her. Unlike Mario, Luigi prefers to do things in the background.
