Luigi

Luigi's Current design

 **Luigi**is one of the main 4 protagonists (The others being Mario, Baxter and Baxter Ewers) and is Mario's Younger Brother. Luigi is mostly shy and scared alot, but mostly he'll turn it upside down. Luigi has the power of Electrokinesis and Electricity movement from the Thunder Gods. His weapon of choice is the signature Hammer. He appeared in the first novel in Super Mario Chronicles in Chapter 1.

## Appearance

### Default Outfit

Luigi is very similar to his older brother in appearance, although Luigi is slimmer and taller. His face is noticeably thinner, and his hair is the same style as Mario's, but more of an auburn or dark maroon. Luigi's mustache is dark brown, sometimes black, and smooth, unlike Mario's mustache.

Luigi also wears clothes similar to Mario, but his shirt is green instead of red. Layered over the shirt is blue overalls, darker than Mario's. He also has brown work shoes, again darker than Mario's, with tan bottoms that reach above his ankles. Artwork however sometimes shows Luigi with the same color of blue overalls and brown shoes as Mario. In Luigi's Mansion, Luigi's shoes have Velcro on them, which is not present in any other game. Luigi's Cap is similar to Mario's Cap, being green instead of red and having an "L" replace Mario's signature "M"; the "L" was in italic from Mario Kart 64 to Luigi's Mansion for a few years. Artwork for the Mario & Luigi series has consistently depicted Luigi as wearing red and white striped socks; this trait is not present in any other games.

## Personality

Luigi is portrayed as timid and a bit of a coward. He also worries and is considerably self-conscious. However, he overcomes his fears and acts like a hero when necessary. Arguably, Luigi's most apparent trait is his seeming cowardice. Although Luigi's phasmophobia is his most overbearing fear, he usually reconsiders at the mere thought of any monsters or trials, especially in the Mario & Luigi series. However, Luigi can be quite brave, and has saved the Mushroom Kingdom alongside his brother multiple times.

## Powers & Abilities

As to not give players advantages over each other, Luigi's abilities are usually exactly the same as Mario's. In most instances where one player can choose between the two brothers, however, Luigi is given his own gameplay quirks. Luigi can Jump higher than Mario but has lower traction and speed. Luigi is usually faster than Mario (at the cost of poorer acceleration), but retains his classic high jumps and poor traction. Luigi can Flutter Jump as well.

Electricity is sometimes depicted as Luigi's answer to Mario's fire. In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, Luigi is given the ability to harness and release electricity with a technique known as the Thunderhand (alongside his other specialty, the High Jump). This is referenced in Super Paper Mario with Mr. L's nickname of "The Green Thunder," and in Mario Strikers Charged, where Luigi's Mega Strike involves controlling electricity.

### Electrokinesis

Luigi's associated with Electricity and Electromagnetic abilities around him. He was trained under the Thunder Gods to learn how to use electricity and use the move Thunder Hand.

### Weaknesses

* Has the fear of Ghosts.
