Toad (Nintendo)

**Toads** are the more humanoid half of the Mushroom People, the other half being Goombas. The Toads are also renowned as the **Bulbous Heads** and **Shroom Bois** for their fungal bulbous heads, the source of their power. Desbug is fond of the Bulbous people, to the point that he occasionally becomes one and that *bulbous* is his panic word.

Of the four Made Marios in *Super Mario Maker 2*, Todd and Toadette are often called the Toads in opposition to Mario and Luigi, who are the Bros. This especially comes into play in Toads vs. Bros. events.

## Biology

"*Honestly, dude, if you think about it, if Toad is like, perfect the way he is, if you remove any part of him, it just, it's messed up.*" —Raysfire[src]
Some parts of a Toad's anatomy, including their legs and neck, are usually hidden unless excited and considered scandalous.

### Coloration

"*I've been hiding in those leaves for so long I turned green! (...) Is that Luigi's origin story? Am I the Luigi of Toads?*" —A newly Green Toad[src]
Bulbous Heads can be red, blue, green, yellow, purple, orange, pink, or brown, although the only known brown Toad is Toadsworth, who is a senior citizen. Their coloration slowly changes depending on their surroundings.

### Bulbous heads

The source of their power, a Toad's bulbous head is extremely bouncy with colorful mushroom spots. These heads can be used to catapult oneself to great heights and even perform Overcheese. In cursed parallel universes, Toads have heads that are both bulbous and ovular.

A famous mathematical formula states that the combination of a bulbous force and a gelatinous bouncy object produces a test in stubborness.

It is frowned upon to bounce on a Toad's bulbous head without their consent.

#### Baldness

Every detail in a Toad's anatomy is essential to maintain their perfect form. However, forbidden science and dark magic can be used to remove a Toad's Bulbous Head, resulting in a cursed monstrosity resembling a Sorry! piece.

### Voices

"*We used to have sweet voices until the Marioro cigarretes got released in the kingdom.*" —Team Blue Toad[src]
The Bulbous Heads' naturally sweet voices became gravelly over time as they started chain smoking Marioro cigarettes. This is a somewhat painful process known as **Toad Puberty**.

### Nipples

Whether Toads have nipples is a heavily guarded secret that few outsiders know.

### Reproduction

The Toad Mating Dance is a very specific ritual among Bulbous Heads. The exact details of Bulbous reproduction are a mystery, but the Dance is known to involve Naked Pipes. It may also involve a Toad's legs, which are usually kept hidden unless excited.

## Culture

### Leadership

The Bulbous Heads are ruled by Princess Peach Toadstool, who is actually not a toadstool and instead a non-bulbous human. Their secondary ruler is Toadette the Bulbous Queen, who has the ability to become the floaty human Peachette at the cost of her bulbous head. Toadette's rule has given rise to an uncomfortable simp culture. RedFalcon has a complicated relationship with this simp culture.

### Language

"*This is the Toad, the Toad Interaction. This is how the Toads communicate whenever no one's looking.*" —Raysfire[src]
Bulbous Heads speak Japanese, English, and other languages in different translations. They also know a secret Bulbous Language with a complicated system of crouching, schmooving, and other body language.

Known speakers of the secret Bulbous Language include Desbug, BulbusHead, Team Blue Toad, Zurby Odd Toad, Pink Mario, Toad, Mr Bulbous64, Toad The Mushroom Boy, Orange Toad, Raysfire, "A Person", and likely many or all other Bulbous Heads.

Pokemon and mortals are typically not allowed (or perhaps able) to know the language, placing a stigma on sharing it. The Super Yoshi Cane claims to have learned the language from the Bulbous Heads, a permission that may or may not extend to other Yoshmen.

### Clothing

Bulbous Heads wear vests. These vests typically match their bulbous head colors, but Todd's vest is blue even when his head is red.
