==Appearance==
Toad resembles his in-game counterpart, but has teeth. He has red spots and a white mushroom on his head. He has white skin, wears a brown backpack and blue vest, and has white pants. He also has light brown shoes. 
==Personality== 
Toad has a very energetic and adventurous attitude, even compared to most of the other Toads seen in the Mushroom Kingdom. Unlike many of them, he is also very brave and won't shy away from a fight, even when facing someone much larger than him, like Bowser. He is also very good-hearted and loyal, demonstrated by the fact that as soon as he meets Mario, he commits to helping him save his brother despite only just meeting him, and he quickly accompanies both him and Princess Peach on their journey to the Jungle Kingdom to recruit them to stand up to and defeat Bowser. This is demonstrated again when he promises to stay by Peach's side to protect her from harm at the beginning of the journey and stands by this vow later on even when the kingdom is being invaded Bowser and his forces, during which most of the Toads are fleeing and/or being evacuated to safety.
==Biography==
Toad first appears after Mario lands in the Mushroom Kingdom. He warns Mario not to touch a poisonous mushroom, but he quickly realized the mushroom was perfectly normal. He then explained that when Mario and his brother got separated while going through the warp pipe, Luigi got sent to the Dark Lands where Bowser has taken control of pretty much all of the territory, meaning he was in great danger. Determined to help Mario save his brother, he showed him the way to Princess Peach and escorted him through the Mushroom Kingdom to her castle. He then distracted the guards so Mario could sneak inside.
