## Character Bio

Super Mario is one of, if not the most iconic video game icons, being the main representative of the Super Mario series, and the face of Nintendo as their main mascot, starting his career out in the early 1980's, Mario quickly rose to popularity and became a face in the gaming industry, landing him where he is today. Personality-wise, Mario is a modest, heroic, and kind guy, who takes the priority of his allies over his own, truly a hero dedicated of his craft

## Physical Appearance

Mario is a short humanoid with brown hair, a black mustache black eyebrows, and light blue eyes with darker blue irises. He dons a red shirt, blue overalls, brown shoes, white gloves, and his signature red cap with a letter "M" sewed onto the front. Mario also has two golden buttons connected his overalls. Mario's color scheme and attire can alter depending on which power-up is equipped, but his main and iconic color scheme will always be the good ol' red and blue.

## In His Series

Mario is the main protagonist of the Super Mario Bros. franchise and all of its subsequent sequels, and spin-offs, with certain exceptions. He is the former-plumber who is in charge of saving Princess Peach from the evil Koopa King, Bowser, and his loyal Koopa Troop from taking over the Mushroom Kingdom. Mario is usually accompanied by his faithful brother Luigi, his trusty dinosaur pal Yoshi, and/or Toad, a Mushroom Kingdom local, on his adventures to save the princess and protect the kingdom. Though, Mario is no stranger to being kidnapped himself, as he has been kidnapped by Bowser once in the game Mario is Missing, and a total of 3 times as of now by the evil King Boo in Luigi's own series, Luigi's Mansion. Though starting out with the name "Jump Man" back in the days of the Donkey Kong arcade game, the name Mario stook as the name "Jump Man" soon went over to his father to better differentiate the two red heroes.

## In Plush Survivor

### Plush Survivor I

Placement: 20th

Mario was one of the original 39 contestants who applied to participate in the first Plush Survivor season, back when Geoff was still the host of the series. During the first three episodes, Mario was assigned onto Team Fire, along with his brother Luigi, as well as Sonic, and Tails, the 4 already had pre-established chemistry together, seeing as they all work in Plush World's most known fighting force, The Elite, so they immediately asserted control over the team. Fast-forward to Episode 4, Mint and Violet took over as hosts, and asked the contestants to form new teams, similar to BFB. Mario and his friends immediately joined forces, along with Knuckles, Amy, Shadow, and The Owl Twins, coming to form Sonic's Spectacular, Super, Supreme, Surreal Squad (S.S.S.S.S. Squad as it is referred to.) Mario's chemistry with his teammates allowed him to get a long way into the competition, even making it into the Merge where the teams disbanded. However, Mario's time was eventually over, as on Episode 30, he and his brother were both eliminated, with Mario at 11 votes, and Luigi at 12 votes. Before Mario left, he shared his thoughts on his experience competing with the rest of the contestants, before being sent away to the Fire Trap. In Episode 39, Mario and Luigi were with the top 9 people who had received votes to rejoin the show, however, both only received 1 vote each which was not enough to rejoin and both were sent back to the Traptanium Void until the Finale of the Season.

### Plush Survivor II

In the second season, Mario was among the 25 people eligible to be voted into Season 2 as part of the second RC vote of the season, however Mario did not join as he only received 1 vote to join. In Episode 41, Mario and the rest of the veterans not in Season 2 or Zero are tasked with helping out with the preparations of the finale. Mario teams up with his friends, The Power Strikers, and Tails to gather decorations for the festivities before moving to the harbor to get transported to Angel Island, and see who won the fan favorite vote.

### Plush Survivor: Jump!

Placement: 2nd

In the alternate universe season, Mario was among the 24 contestants selected to compete in Jump, this time, he is all alone seeing as Luigi and Sonic are competing in Plush Survivor Zero and Tails is off doing work in Green Hill Zone. However, he gains new allies in the form of Ketchup, Mustard, and Rose, which the 4 of them would go on to form their own team, the Power Strikers. Jumping to Episode 13, during the Tetriminoes attack, it is assumed Mario has some involvement with the Tetrimino attack, however, this dives more into the realm of Luigifan00001's story lines rather than Plush Survivor's. In Episode 21, right before the finale, Scapelli arrives to steal the grand prize, however, Mario and co. sooned helped defeat him and retrieve the prize. It all came down to Mario or Papyrus winning the season, and ultimate, it was Papyrus who won, with Mario becoming the runner up. In the bonus episode, Episode 22, Mario is disguised as ninja-like hero known as "M-Nown" who helps defeat the Skull Enemy who threatens to kill the contestants. However, after being uncovered, he reveals that he was there to gather the contestants who would soon go to join Plushy Brawl.
