== Charactah Account ==
A representative spirit from Star Road sent to find the Star Pieces, he takes up residence in the body of a doll and makes it grow to life size to use as a body. Initially acting alone, he recognizes Mario as a great hero and accepts his aid in the quest for the Stars. He's a reliable and trustworthy ally, and provides plenty of exposition.
Geno has a variety of attacks which use a mix of physical and energy projectiles. His regular attack involves shooting physical projectiles from his arms. His special attacks typically involve powerful energy blasts. Additionally, Geno is the fastest of Mario's allies.

== Trivia ==
* Geno's real name is different in the Japanese version of Super Mario RPG, using a one-time set of unpronounceable symbols derived from a fictional star language.
* The sprites of Geno's star form when possessing the Geno doll and those seen at the end of the game are vastly different, the former being a small, white, almost realistic star while the latter was a yellow, more traditional Mario star surrounded by yellow dots. Similarly, the sprites of the Geno doll when playing with Gaz and the one sitting pose of it seen at the end of the game are proportionally inaccurate to each other.
* Although Geno appears in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, he is a registered trademark of Square Enix, as noted in the end credits of the game. They state, "Regardless of the above-mentioned, the copyright of Geno, reserved by Square Enix, Co. Ltd." (despite intellectual property laws for most countries maintaining that any element created specifically for a specific setting belongs to the owner of said setting, which in this case would be Nintendo).
* When Geno uses a Special Move a symbol of a star is superimposed over his body. This also happens to be the only one of the aforementioned Special Moves that is not a playing card symbol.
