#### Origins

Long time ago before Mushroom Kingdom had been established, there was a world known as Subcon, a world where dreams were made. Subcon was ruled by the tyrannical wart and his nightmares, said to be the spawns of the Angel of Darkness. Only the mushroom people were brave enough to rebel against the Subcon's monsters. Wart was eventually overthrown and Subcon ended up changing into Mushroom Kingdom, whose residents believed that a peaceful era was at hand. However, Wart had a son, a reptile-like mutant said to be his heir. He quickly rose in the ranks of the Koopa Clan, a race of intelligent turtles who wanted to take over Mushroom Kingdom and drive away all other species. Their beloved ruler became known as King Koopa, and he soon gathered the former armies of Wart to join his side. He was even able to convince Goombas, who originally were on the side of Mushroom People, to betray their kingdom and join King Koopa's Legion.

King Koopa established himself very quickly as a threat to the Mushroom People, as his magic was too powerful, he had massive armies and he seemed to even surpass Wart in his power. Mushroom Kingdom's authority chose two humans from an alternate dimension to aid them in the battle against Koopa, two plumber brothers Mario and Luigi. Koopa had kidnapped the ruler of mushroom kingdom, Princess Peach Toadstool, and now was trying to force her into marrying him so he could gain control over the kingdom. Mario Brothers were able to stop Koopa and save the princess, but the war raged on, with King Koopa continuing to come up with new plans to destroy the Mario Brothers, only to be thwarted eachtime.

Sometime later, King Koopa was contacted by a giant brain known as Mother Brain and asked for his help in order to establish "Videoland Villains", Koopa agreed to the alliance as long as he could finally destroy those pesky plumbers.
