History Characters / PaperMario

* TookALevelInKindness: In ''The Origami King'', which is the first time that Bowser is never fought in a Paper Mario game, he is actually fairly nice, especially towards Olivia, and expresses no [[TeethClenchedTeamwork teeth-clenching]] at the thought of working alongside Mario.

* AlwaysLawfulGood: All of the Toads encountered in the series are friendly [=NPC=]s. The closest thing to an "evil" Toad is the Shady Toad from ''[[VideoGame/PaperMarioStickerStar Sticker Star]]'', who is nothing more than that— shady.

* PunnyName: In some games, the Toads have names like "Zess T." and the like.

->''"Yes, we're back this week with another exiting episode of Snifit or Whiffit! I'm your host, Snifit."''

The host of the game show "Snifit or Whiffit". He returns in ''Color Splash'', where he now hosts "Snifit or Whiffit: Seabed Edition".

* AffablyEvil: He's clearly working for Bowser as he introduces Mario to the show as "the man we all detest", he holds a Wiggler segment hostage, and his questions reveal that he thinks that Bowser is straight-up cooler than Mario. But he's generally a fun-loving host who has Mario participate in his game and plays fair for the most part, [[VillainRespect genuinely respecting him if he wins]]. The only thing that's considered harmful that he did to Mario is filling the room with poison gas, and later threatening to pop Mario's bubble underwater if he got too many questions wrong.
* ADogNamedDog: The host's name is "Snifit" and he's a Snifit. Otherwise, he doesn't actually have a ''name''-name.
* LadiesAndGerms: "Gentlebuddies" and "Goodbuddies' are variants of his introduction.
* NiceGuy: He acts like one, but some dialogue of his such as "unpaid Snifit interns" suggest he can be a {{Jerkass}} too.
* StudioAudience: According to one of the answers to his questions, there are 30 Snifits in the audience.
* WhackAMonster: One of his challenges is to whack 20 "unpaid Snifit interns."

* CoDragons: Alongside Bowser Jr. and his mainstream counterpart in ''VideoGame/Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam''.

[[folder:Kamek]]
!!Kamek
[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_1386.png]]
[[caption-width-right:250:''"Keh heh heh…''"]]
->'''Voiced by:''' Atsushi Masaki
->''"You know, when I think '[[VideoGame/YoshisIsland little Mario]],' I think 'Bowser's perpetual enemy.' Which makes you MY enemy."''

Bowser's loyal second-in-command who raised him from birth, as well as the leader of the Magikoopas.

* AdaptationalJerkass: While the main series Kamek can be pretty smug, he generally at least ''tries'' to reason with Yoshi and doesn't have much against Mario himself. Here, he's far less respectful and often goes out of his way to {{Troll}} Mario for no reason.
* BeleagueredAssistant: Carried over from the main series, Kamek is often saddled with carrying out the hardest parts of Bowser's plans and is at the end of his rope 90% of the time. This is emphasized in ''[[VideoGame/PaperMarioTheOrigamiKing The Origami King]]'', where he serves as a party member for a chapter and does a good job of it, while making it clear that Bowser and Bowser Jr. would be far more effective villains if they would actually listen to him for a change.
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: In his introduction in ''Sticker Star'', Kamek is a FauxAffablyEvil villain who goes out of his way to antagonize Mario and Kersti at every opportunity and personally drives most of the plot. Fast forward to ''The Origami King'', and Kamek's traits have shifted to more closely resemble his mainstream counterapart, having him behave more respectfully and placing an emphasis on his role as Bowser and Junior's BeleagueredAssistant.
* CoDragons: Alongside Bowser Jr. and his mainstream counterpart in ''VideoGame/Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam''.
* ContinuityNod: In ''Sticker Star'', Kamek repeatedly calls Mario as "little Mario", referring to their long history in the ''VideoGame/YoshisIsland'' series.
* DeadpanSnarker: Kamek has a pretty sharp wit and won't hesitate to deliver dry remarks, especially in ''Sticker Star''.
-->'''Kamek:''' Ooh, just look at your powerful arsenal of stickers… [[SarcasmMode I'm ever so scared]].
* DefeatMeansFriendship: In ''[[VideoGame/PaperMarioColorSplash Color Splash]]'', his Enemy Card can be won from the [[RockPaperScissors Rock Paper Wizard in Super Roshambo]] after his defeat, which summons him to cast a spell for a turn. However, he refuses to attack bosses like the Koopalings or Bowser.
* DemotedToExtra: After [[TheHeavy being the major antagonistic force]] in ''Sticker Star'', Kamek's role is comparatively smaller in ''Color Splash'', where he mainly appears by cursing Mario during battles and his role in the plot largely replaced by [[CoDragons the Koopalings]]. He is still responsible for playing around with the sizes in Mondo Woods, but is still overall a step down from being TheDragon.
* TheDragon: He is Bowser's most trusted enforcer, and seems to have even more control of the Koopa Tropp than Bowser Jr. himself.
* DragonInChief: Since Bowser is largely absent in ''Sticker Star'', Kamek steps in to personally command his army and interfere with Mario and Kersti as often as possible.
* DualBoss: Like the Bowsers and the Jrs., Kamek and his paper counterpart fight together in ''Paper Jam''.
* DudeWheresMyRespect: While Bowser rarely berates or insults Kamek like he does to Kammy, Kamek nevertheless works a thankless job and will occasionally snark or mutter about it as a result.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Just like in the main games, Kamek raised Bowser and cares for him as if he were his own son.
* EvilGenius: As ''Sticker Star'' and ''Paper Jam'' show, Kamek is very much the brains of the Koopa Troop, regularly concocting schemes and attempting to steer Bowser in the right direction.
* EvilIsPetty: In ''Sticker Star'' and ''Color Splash'', Kamek often appears solely to mess with Mario, either by placing random curses or turning all of his stickers into flip-flops.
* EvilSorcerer: He is a powerful Magikoopa capable of casting a variety spells and hexes on a whim.
* FauxAffablyEvil: In contrast to his more polite and reasonable portrayal in the main series, this version of Kamek is blatantly condescending and often goes out of his way to "compliment" Mario and Kersti in a sarcastic manner.
-->'''Kamek:''' Well, this will seem rather rude since we've only just met, but… Let's get you out of the way quickly, shall we? Prepare for ruin!
* FlyingBroomstick: His preferred method of transport.
* TheHeavy: Bowser may be the BigBad of ''Sticker Star'', but he appears only at the start and end of the game and has no dialogue. Kamek shows up repeatedly throughout the worlds to make Mario's life more difficult.
* {{Jerkass}}: In ''Sticker Star'', he is needlessly rude and condescending towards Mario and Kersti, and occasionally does mean things for the sake of it.
-->'''Kersti:''' I don't get mad too easily, but that Kamek really STINKS!
* LaughablyEvil: As much of a {{Jerkass}} as he can be, Kamek is so blunt and snarky that it's hard not to chuckle whenever he shows up.
-->'''Kamek:''' I'd love to stick around and sweep the floor with you, but I've got places to be, lives to ruin. You know how it is for us big wigs.
* {{Leitmotif}}: ''Sticker Star'' gives him his own theme, called [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTiXXx-arBw "The Blue Wizard"]], which is [[BossRemix remixed into]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4JAlJoRFaIg "Malevolent Magikoopa"]]. It reappears yet again as the aptly titled [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1uYImYNXgUI&list=PL2XjmdkuVL-03sRUqbEFAgiHg08isEC-l&index=114&pp=iAQB8AUB "Kamek's Theme"]] in ''Color Splash'' and [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=aAkbEB7G3nU&pp=ygUYa2FtZWsgdGhlbWUgb3JpZ2FtaSBraW5n "Meet Kamek"]] in ''The Origami King''.
* MagicalNanny: To Bowser as during the Koopa King's youth. Even though Bowser is a grown adult now, [[BeleagueredAssistant not much has changed]].
* OtherMeAnnoysMe: Just like the Bowsers, Paper Kamek seems to find his main counterpart intolerable, though they do end up having respect for each other and get along in the end. For all of ten seconds.
* PapaWolf: Pretty much everything he does is to protect and appease Bowser, who he basically raised as his own.
* RandomEncounter: In ''Color Splash'', Kamek will occasionally ambush Mario and cause a random event, like stealing or obscuring Mario's cards.
* RecurringBoss: In both ''Sticker Star'' and ''Paper Jam'', he's fought three times, with two of his battles in the latter being a DualBoss alongside his main counterpart.
* RedOniBlueOni: The blue to Bowser and Bowser Jr.'s red.
* RobeAndWizardHat: He's clad in the traditional blue robes and peaked hat of the Magikoopas.
* ShoeSlap: For his second and third battles in ''Sticker Star'', he turns all of Mario's stickers into... sandals, forcing the plumber to fight by slapping him in the face with flip-flops.
* SmugSnake: In ''Sticker Star'', Kamek takes great pleasure in mocking and belittling Mario and Kersti at every turn.
* SnarkToSnarkCombat:
** The majority of his encounters in ''Sticker Star'' have him snarking back and forth with [[HairTriggerTemper Kersti]].
** He also throws shade at his [[OtherMeAnnoysMe main counterpart]] over the course of ''Paper Jam'', with the latter returning the favor.
* SquishyWizard: Very much so in ''Sticker Star''. Compared to the staggering amounts of health that the chapter bosses boast, Kamek has a measly 20 HP each time Mario faces him. Instead, he relies on trickery to avoid being curb-stomped.
* TookALevelInKindness: In ''The Origami King'', he's far less condescending towards and more cooperative with Mario.
* {{Troll}}: He enjoys screwing with Mario by placing random or nonsensical curses on him in the midst of battle.
* UnexplainedRecovery: He turns to ash at the end of ''Sticker Star'', shatters to pieces after being drained white in ''Color Splash'', and explodes along with his main counterpart in ''Paper Jam'', yet always returns no worse for wear. Admittedly, this happens [[IronButtMonkey all the time]] to both named and minor members of the Koopa Troop.
* VillainRespect: In ''Sticker Star'', Kamek reveals that he was watching Mario and Kersti conquer the Enigmansion the entire time, but never interfered simply because he genuinely enjoyed witnessing their victories and respected their tenacity.
* WorthyOpponent: In ''Sticker Star'' and especially ''Color Splash'', he expresses great respect for Mario upon being defeated.

[[folder:Bowser Jr.]]
!!Bowser Jr.
[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_1395.png]]
[[caption-width-right:250:''"I'm gonna pummel you and make my daddy proud!"'']]
->'''Voiced by:''' Caety Sagoian
->''"Dang! You're nothing but a big bully! I'm telling my dad on you!"''

Bowser's bratty son and the heir to the Koopa throne.

* AdaptationalWimp: Ever since his introduction in the main games, Bowser Jr. has been portrayed either as Kamek's equal or as TheDragon directly behind Bowser himself, to the point of being the BigBad in some games. Here, however, it’s blatantly obvious that Kamek is above him in the Koopa Troop, and Jr. never takes center stage.
* AntiVillain: Ultimately, all Jr. wants us to make his dad proud and finally get some friends… even if he has to kill Mario to do so.
* BarrierWarrior: In ''[[VideoGame/PaperMarioStickerStar Sticker Star]]'', he'll activate a domed barrier over his Clown Car to protect himself.
* BlackBeadEyes: Like Mario, Bowser Jr. has tiny black eyes, which contrast his father's.
* BloodKnight: ''The Origami King'' depicts him with a voracious appetite for combat, mainly so he can make his dad proud.
* BrattyHalfPint: But of course. Being the spoiled son of an EvilOverlord, Jr. is about as arrogant and obnoxious as can be, especially when he doesn't get what he wants.
* ChildrenAreInnocent: Despite technically being evil, Jr.'s motives are far more benign than his father's and motivated more by insecurity and immaturity than genuine malice.
* ChildSoldier: Despite being a young child, he's still an active member of his father's army.
* CombinationAttack: In ''VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiPaperJam'', he and his main counterpart attack in tandem.
* CoolAirship: He pilots one of the Koopa Troop's signature airships in the climax of ''Sticker Star''.
* CoolCar: He often cruises around in the iconic Koopa Clown Car.
* DramaticHighPerching: He seems to enjoy being in high places. Lampshaded in ''Paper Jam'', where he comments to himself that he has no fear of heights, and even seems to enjoy the thrill of being at the top of an incredibly high mountain.
* DualBoss: With his main counterpart in ''Paper Jam'', where the duo will work together using attacks and even healing/reviving each other.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Obviously, Jr. loves his father more than anything else, and everything he does is to make him proud.
* EvilRedhead: Just like his dad, he sports flaming red hair and is a tyrannical villain.
* FieryRedhead: On top of the red hair, Jr. has inherited Bowser's temper and bratty behavior.
* GadgeteerGenius: Like his main counterpart, Bowser Jr. relies on building and designing machines to take down Mario, as opposed to his father's affinity for magic.
* GenerationXerox: In terms of appearance, he's essentially just a smaller version of his father.
* GoldfishPoopGang: In ''Sticker Star'', thanks to him not being a real threat and having no major role in the plot, unlike Kamek.
* GottaCatchEmAll: In ''Sticker Star'', his main objective seems to be hunting down rare stickers. At least until the last time he's encountered, during which he wants revenge.
* GreenEyedMonster: In the fourth game he attacks Mario twice simply because he wants to take the plumber's stickers for himself.
* GuestStarPartyMember: For a brief period in ''The Origami King'', Bowser Jr. can aid in battles during the period between restoring him back to normal and fighting the miniboss. However, the player can go straight to the miniboss after the preceeding sequence and he permanently leaves the party (as far as the game is concerned) afterwards, meaning that its unlikely that they'll see him in battle unless they put off fighting the miniboss.
* HealingFactor:
** Throughout his boss battles in ''Sticker Star'', he'll start to heal himself once his health gets too low.
** In ''Paper Jam'', both of the Juniors can pull a Mushroom or even a 1-Up Mushroom out of their Clown Car to heal their buddy.
* IJustWantToHaveFriends: In ''Paper Jam'', it's heavily implied that he's much lonelier than he cares to admit. When he finally finds a friend in the main Bowser Jr., he worries so much about losing him that the two try to hunt down the only way back to the paper world and destroy it.
* IneffectualSympatheticVillain: In ''Sticker Star'', he serves as more of a nuisance to Mario and Kersti than anything else, and suffers a brutal beatdown each time he encounters them.
* JapaneseDelinquent: Like the stereotypical Japanese street punk, Bowser Jr. wears a painted bandanna over his face, sports a rebellious hair style, wears punk jewelry, slings graffiti, and rides around in heavily modified vehicles.
* JuniorCounterpart: As his name implies, he serves as one to his father.
* {{Leitmotif}}: In ''Sticker Star'', he has a theme called "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCdWTRTxaNo My Things!]]". ''The Origami King'' replaces it with "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BajvpveKuc0 Enter, Bowser Jr.!]]" (not to be confused with the ''Super Mario Galaxy'' theme), a more cutesy-theme that bears similarities melody-wise to his father's new leitmotif.
* LikeFatherLikeSon: He not only does looks identical to his dad papa, but he inherits the Koopa King's signature temper and drive to defeat Mario.
* LiterallyShatteredLives: His attempted charge at Bowser's Castle's in ''The Origami King'' ends with Scissors ''[[BodyHorror cutting him to pieces]]''.
* LonelyRichKid: He's heavily implied to be one in ''Paper Jam'', where he only seems truly happy when he finally finds a playmate in his main counterpart.
* MissingMom: His mother is now where to be found, and unlike in the main series, he doesn't even have Peach to fall back on as a ParentalSubstitute.
* NeverMyFault: After being defeated for the first time in ''Sticker Star'', he whines and calls Mario a bully, despite the fact that Mario only fought him in self-defense.
* OverlordJr: Not only does he share a name with his EvilOverlord father, but he's also the heir to the Koopa throne.
* PlotIrrelevantVillain: Unlike Kamek, Jr. has absolutely nothing to do with Bowser's plan in ''Sticker Star'', only showing up every so often to pester the heroes.
* RecurringBoss: In ''Sticker Star'', where he's fought three times in each act of the story.
* ShooOutTheClowns: At the end of ''Paper Jam'', he and his main counterpart are knocked unconscious just in time for [[KnightofCerebus their fathers]] to take center stage.
* SoreLoser: Resorts to whining and crying to his dad whenever Mario defeats him.
* SpikesOfVillainy: Has a spiky turtle shell, just like his dad.
* SpoiledBrat: Bowser spoils him absolutely ''rotten'', resulting in a BrattyHalfPint that picks on anyone who annoys him. In ''VideoGame/PaperMarioTheOrigamiKing'', Bowser sums up this part of his son in one sentence:
-->'''Bowser:''' Try parenting a "high-energy" kid with access to a flying car and his own army!
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: To Jr. Troopa from ''VideoGame/PaperMario64'', being a RecurringBoss and TheRival who is utterly obsessed with defeating Mario. They both even have "Junior" in their names!
* TragicVillain: ''Paper Jam'' portrays him as a [[LonelyRichKid lonely kid]] who is neglected by his father and simply [[IJustWantToHaveFriends wants a friend]]. He manages to find one in the main Bowser Jr., but the two are ultimately separated by the end and forced to continue going on as lonely as they were before.
* VillainousFriendship: In ''Paper Jam'', Bowser Jr. and Paper Bowser Jr. form a friendship so ironclad that it borders on HeterosexualLifePartners territory. The two love each other's company and quickly become fearful that, should the Paper World book be discovered, Paper Bowser Jr. would have to leave and the two would be bored and lonely again.
* WellDoneSonGuy: His primary motivation is simply to make his father proud, no matter what it takes.

[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_1381.png]]
[[caption-width-right:250:''"Gwa ha ha ha ha ha!"'']]

* FriendlyEnemy: As the series progresses, Bowser becomes less and less hostile towards Mario, while still remaining his ArchEnemy. ''Color Splash'' reveals that he regularly go-karts with Mario when they're not battling, and by the time of ''The Origami King'', Bowser is just flat-out ''nice'' to the plumber and teams up with him without any reservations.

The hero as always. When not busy saving Princess Peach, he is saving the world.

* DimensionalTraveler: In ''Super Paper Mario'', while the game is built around characters traveling between different dimensions, Mario is able to take things further by using his flipping technique to switch between two- and three-dimensional planes of existence.

--> Voiced by: Scott Burns (''TTYD''), Eric Newsome (''Super''), Kenny James (''Sticker Star'', ''Color Splash'', ''The Origami King'')

* EvilVersusOblivion: Directly {{Invoked}} as the reason for him to join the heroes in ''Super Paper Mario''. Peach tries to convince him with other reasons first, which fail, but once Mario brings up that Count Bleck’s victory would mean he would no longer have a world to rule, he sees the logic and joins.

* ALighterShadeOfBlack: While he plays the role of main villain straight in most games, he is definitely less evil than Sir Grodus and the Shadow Queen from ''The Thousand-Year Door'' and even becomes one of the heroes in ''Super Paper Mario'' and ''The Origami King''.

* OutOfFocus: Similarly to Peach, in the first three Paper Mario games he has a rather prominent role. The first game has him as the BigBad with full autonomy and several of the chapters’ ends give some focus on him, the second game gives him playable sections at the end of each chapter, and the third game has him as a playable character. In Sticker Star and Color Splash, however, while he is the BigBad in each game, it’s heavily implied in Sticker Star and outright stated in Color Splash he’s being possessed by an artifact with no autonomy of his own, hardly any focus is given on him as a character, and he only shows up in a handful of scenes. It’s justified in Origami King where he has been stapled and therefore is unable to help Mario in fights in his current state; once he’s freed from his staple, he joins Mario at Peach’s castle and helps him against King Ollie.

Mario's underdog brother, not as heroic but still brave and adventurous.
