Extension Corps

The Extension Corps is an army of living beings the resemble electrical cords and are the main antagonists in the upcoming Mario & Luigi: Brothership.
== Profile ==
=== Physical Appearance ===
The Extension Corps' members take their designs from electrical connectors. The apparent leader wears a cloak with a hat and masquerade mask. Coming out of his hat are two cables, with their colours being red for one and green for the other, and his cloak is held together by what appears to be a wire cutter. The higher-ups of his army take their designs from a headphone jack/audio splitter, a VGA connector, and coaxial cables. The higher-up who resembles a headphone jack has a purple and lanky body, with his head resembling a male connector and one of his arms and both his legs resembling female connectors. The higher-up who resembles a VGA connector has a green and blue stout body. The coaxial cable-based higher-up seems to have no legs with his method of locomotion being flight, and he has a cape. The footsoldiers of the Extension Corps take their designs from USB cables.
=== Powers ===
The purple member is seen attacking Luigi with an energy ball that he balances on à la Lemmy Koopa with the orb having to be smashed away with the hammer, but other than that, nothing else is known.
== Behind the Scenes ==
=== Etymology ===
The name of the group comes from the term "Extension Cord."
== Nomenclature ==
In Japanese, the Extension Corps is called the "Voldoldo Squad" (Borudoru Tai; written ボルドルド 隊, or ボルドルド たい in Hiragana and ボルドルド タイ in Katakana; derived from boruto (bolt; written ボルト) undergoing duplication and a change from T to D). In the Spanish dub, the members are called the "Extension Cord Commandos" ((Los) Comandos Alargadores; singular Comando Alargador). In Italian, they are called "Skonnettieri" (singular Skonnettiero); a corruption of (di)sconnéttere ("to disconnect") and gurriero ("warrior"). French translates their name as (Les) Disjoncteurs, which means "Circuit Breakers" (singular Disjoncteur). The group's German name is Ausfall-Brigade (literally "brigade of outages," presumably referring to power outages). In Dutch, the Extension Corps is called the "Extension Group" (Extensiegroep), again referring to "extension cords."
