Toad

Toad was a Dinohattan resident and street performer, before being turned into a Goomba.
== Biography ==
Mario and Luigi first met Toad in Koopa Square, after Big Bertha stole the meteorite piece. Seeing their troubled looks, Toad began playing them an anti-Koopa song. Police cars arrived at the scene and begin arresting Toad for his politically charged song, which upsetted Mario and Luigi and they ran to his defense. The police officers recognized Mario and Luigi as the plumbers that President Koopa is searching for, and the brothers were arrested as well. Toad was brought in to the prison, and was placed in the cell cage above them. During their stay at the police station, he explained the circumstances of the fungus growing throughout Dinohattan and the Fungus Unit Mario and Luigi had to be de-fungused by. He shared the history of Dinohattan with them, explaining the parallel dimension split caused by the meteor, and shared his theory that Koopa de-evolved the former King of Dinohattan into the growing and expanding fungus seen throughout the city.
Mario and Luigi were later escorted to the Devo Chamber, where President Koopa presented them Toad strapped into the device. Toad's parting words were that Koopa is a terrible leader and that the former king will return. The machine was activated, and Toad was de-evolved into a Goomba. The other Goombas outfitted him with a harmonica strapped around his neck, which allowed him to play his harmonica without his hands. Mario and Luigi became enraged at the sight of Toad being reduced to a Goomba form, and fought their way out of the Devo Chamber.
Later, in Koopa's Tower, he was ordered by Koopa to drag Daisy away from him. Toad tried to bring Daisy some meat for her to eat, but Daisy informed him she's a vegetarian, and would rather opt for steamed vegetables. He nodded and grunted in compliance, but Lena enters the room ordering him to leave. In Daisy's later escape from Lena, Daisy ran into Toad who is carrying the vegetables she requested. She ran away from him, unsure of his motives, but he follows. He catches up to her and the two came to face with two more Goombas dragging along Iggy and Spike to be executed. The Goombas saw Daisy and use a flamethrower that she is able to dodge, though it ignites Toad. Daisy, Iggy and Spike take off running, but Daisy sensed the good in Toad and ran back to put him out with a fire extinguisher, before she continued running.
During Mario and Koopa's fight on the catwalks of Koopa Square, Toad gave Daisy and Luigi a pair of Devolution Guns. Soon after, during their battle, Koopa ordered several Goombas to use a Devolution Gun to de-evolve Mario; Toad distracted them by playing his harmonica, causing them to all begin dancing. After their victory, Mario and Luigi used the meteorite chamber portal to return to Manhattan; Toad briefly shows up alongside Daisy and Yoshi to bid them farewell.
