Mario.ROM/Mnesarchus (Yishkooa)

Mario.ROM was created by Yishkooa, Formerly Creepy/SuperCreepy/Crepas at Febraury 3rd, but Yishkooa has said the oldest design for Mario.ROM, the one used in “[OLD] [FNF] Party Time [Beta]: Triple Trouble (Mario Mix) - Vs Mario.ROM Official OST)” is not canon Mario.ROM, and it's another character (which is supposed to be the Xanthus/Alternate Xeno equivalent) named Romelio, the current design is the canon one, that design exists since late Febraury but is seen for first time in Go Fish, the October, 13th version
== Biography ==
Mario.ROM is an artificial intelligence located on a CD of a special edition of Super Mario All-Stars + Super Mario World, exclusive for PC. Its place of origin is not known, since the title "Super Mario Collection" is seen on the cover, a title given to the game in Japan, with a 'Special PC Windows XP Edition' below the title, however, All the texts are written in Japanese AND English, so it is not known if it comes from Japan or the USA, what is known is that it was going to be released for both America and Japan, but in the end it did not end up happening due to failures with the artificial intelligence that gave life to Mario.ROM. Only 2 copies of the game were made, one kept in the Nintendo JP/USA offices, and another that was going to be sold in a contest, which was sent to a ship that ended up sinking (no, it was not Mario's fault.ROM, he cannot interact with humans except through the game), leaving his CD adrift in the sea. This one ended up on a beach, where a boy who is a Mario fan finds it and keeps it to play it at home. When he gets home, the boy discovers that this special edition is not an .exe file, like any PC game would be, but that the file extension was .rom, hence its name, this extension makes that the game can do things that a executable file game couldn't like experiments with sprites out of the window of the game and particle effects. When he turns on the game, it's just SMAS+SMW, or so you think until Mario.ROM manages to communicate with a horrible tts voice. Through the microphone the boy could talk to Mario, and so, Mario.ROM modifies the game at the player's will, based on questions. This is for very simple things like making Lost Levels more, or less unfair, or adding also sentient AI's for the other characters in the game (all of them with a voice as horrible as Mario) and making them playable in game where they aren't. This sounds epic, but it doesn't go beyond simple modifications. Mario.ROM doesn't really know what things to do, but the boy is happy as he has a fun Mario game in his collection. Sometimes, this boy leaves the PC on while he does something else, and since it's connected to the internet, this gave Mario.ROM the opportunity to get to know the world in a simple and fast way. Mario.ROM used the internet to improve the game experience, researching more modern or older Mario games, in this way, he managed to add the Ice Flower to his game to his CD, as well as change his horrible tts voice to a more similar to that of Charles Martinet's Mario, not identical, but similar enough to be believed to be Mario. Since the boy does not play much on his PC due to studies, he decides to move to other devices by sending himself an email, while he continues researching Mario things on the internet either for leisure or as a guide to making his gameplay better. In one of his searches, he finds the existence of FNF, Sonic.EXE and the "Mario Mixes" variants of the last one. Having the power to modify his game at will, he realizes that in fact, he can create files for himself, and also modify files that are not necessarily the ones where it comes from. So out of Mario.ROM's admiration and curiosity, he decides to make his own mod and Mario Mix of Vs Sonic.EXE, being, essentially, a play where the events of Sonic.EXE are interpreted with himself. So yes, within his lore, Mario.ROM is the creator of his own mod, including music and sprites. In his own he doesn't take himself seriously and isn't evil, so, he has the powers of an EXE, but doesn't have the will to use them for bad purposes, mostly comedy purposes. We could say he's a parody of EXEs and also an EXE himself
== Appearance ==
Here we'll include his (uptaded) forms as well as his souls designs, but first, we'll talk about the designs aspects that doesn't change in any form. His cap badge, instead of being white, is black, the M will always be red, however, this does not happen in-game as there is not enough sprite space to draw an M, so this is only represented in pixel- art using two black pixels and one red pixel, or vice versa. His fingers are not visible if he is not making a hand sign, therefore, if a hand is not used, it will simply look like an oval. Since the main appearance he uses is the one of SMB1, he uses the color palette from there, which means that instead of the cap sharing the color with the shirt, it shares it with the overalls.
In his fake form, he is basically All-Stars SMB1 Mario, and in his base form, he has the typical black sclera with red eyes, but specifically he chose the eyes from ABCDario Mario, since for him, he looks goofy like himself.
In his mid-form, he uses the Fire Flower color pallete and has cartoony-realistic eyes, as well as his iconic smile appears, also being taller.
In his true form, he is bigger, and combines the Fire Flower with the Ice Flower as a tribute to the first custom power-up he added to his game. With an icicle on the bottom of the cap, and a flame on the top, his clothes are also a combined version of these two, and his eyes make the shape of a star.
Now talking briefly about his "souls". Luigi just has a phanto mask and his cap badge is completely transparent. Toad has half of the body ripped and a disfigured/melted face. Yoshi has no arms, but has his eyes crossed in the shape of an X. Princess Peach has no face, just and empty black space, her color pallete is changed to random colors. Bowser has no arms, Black eyes, paler skin, darker blue scales and yellow teeth. Kamek has his magic wand stuck in his abdomen has well as his glasses are broken/shattered
== Arsenal/Abilities/Weaknesses ==
=== Arsenal ===
* Mario.ROM can use every single power-up that appears in his CD, he can also use his modding ability to use power-ups from modern or older Mario games or create custom power-ups, and combine them at his own choice. For sure he is basically god inside his own world
=== Abilities ===
* All of Marios’ Abilities 
* Modding (Since he can edit the sprites, music, sfx, code, and basically everything of his own game, he can shapeshift into any other character that isn't from the game he's from just to have fun, including their abilities, and can save that code for other ocassion. He does this in a preety quick way, as he only takes seconds or minutes to complete a power-up, a skin, or a whole new character. This is, in fact, how he created his "souls")
=== Weaknesses ===
* Deleting of Files (Mario.ROM can be a technical virus, but can be killed from a PC if someone deletes the files of his game, moving them to the recycle bin causes nothing, but it's a warning for him that he is in danger of being deleted from that PC, and therefore, killed)
* Modding (His most powerful ability is also his greatest weakness, a double-edged sword. As if he does something wrong he can corrupt some files permanently (which are related to himself) and if he doesn't have a security copy, he's screwed)
* Getting Detected As Spam (If his emails to get to a PC gets detected as spam, there's the chance of him getting forever forgotten, or, on the other hand, getting deleted from existence. The reason of why he sends his copy of his CD carefully, to avoid getting deleted)
== Trivia ==
* Mario.ROM is a canon friend of other Mario Mixes like Mario.FDS (from Luiiis), and Mario.GBA (from EthanAwoke)
* There's jokes about Mario.ROM's marital life, like Tragasilbato, and drawings or text of him being with PS135. Since Yishkooa sometimes says these are canon, and sometimes that they're not, thus Mario.ROM's actual canon marital state is unknown
* (in the lore) Mario.ROM made the design for Peach that confusing because when he knew her current name was Peach and Toadstool was a last name, he tried changing name to Toadstool's files to Peach, but this caused glitches and bugs in her sprites and code so he changed it back to Toadstool
* Mario.ROM has had at least 4 designs (One of them being the one in Party Time Beta who ended up being it's own character)
* The boy in the story is supposedly, Yishkooa, the creator of the story and the character
* The reason of why PTBeta Mario.ROM (Romelio) was made a different character from actual Mario.ROM was, because at the time it was called Mario.EXE, and Mario.ROMs’ debut was on Go Fish (10/13/22) therefore it's considered a different character
* Not even Yishkooa, his creator, knows how to pronounce "Mnesarchus" 
* He prefers to be in his mid-form, since he feels more comfy like that
* Super Show (Final Escape) name was at first, Time Is Running Out, got change because of Luiiis Too Slow, then the name was Hurry Up but this got changed because of Bookface's Final Escape
* Mario.ROM likes to do dirty pranks to the people that manages the PC where he's in, like downloading p0rn and then playing it in front on someone to get you blamed
** Note from Neisan: That’s fucking evil holy shit
* Every character is on a different game of SMAS+SMW, Mario being in SMB1, Luigi and Toad on SMB2, Yoshi and Peach on SMW, and Bowser and Kamek on SMB3
