Koopa - Tumblr Posts
Are these two related
The Koopa Troopa and the young Toad I mean.
I think that the Koopa is either the father or like an uncle or something.
That's my head Cannon anyway
Drew the only Mario character that matters (Besides Luigi) plus lewd sketch version.
If she ever joins Electrodome Larry's cooked bruh 😭
Hatsune Miku Koopa, anyone?
Headcanon: Koopas come from Obsidian Dragons who decided to protect themselves with big obsidian rocks, which is a predecessor to koopa shells. It explains why Koopas live primarily in volcanic areas, why royal koopas can use fire breath, and why they resemble dragons so much.

I'm Piper Division's irratio caster, and a secretary eager to deliver knowledge and questions to anyone within the Koopa Kingdom. My posts have been a mixed bag, however from this point forward I will stop posting ooc content. (Ludwig isn't really fond of making the information centre my "girl blog" or something..)
For my OOC blog, check @vaika-na-koopa! While asks to the Koopaling Clan aren't officially open, feel free to stay here for a while. <3

Firey Love Through Burning Sands Chapter 6: Meet & Greet
Mario and Luigi didn't know what to expect when they were brought inside the city gates.
The Koopas that were inside the city were a bit of a shock when they first arrived, considering the fact that the only Koopas that they had seen at that point were all from Bowser's kingdom. But out of all they had seen, nothing had prepared them for seeing other human beings. For the past month, Mario thought that he, Luigi, and Princess Peach were the only humans ever to see the land beyond the green pipe. But not only did Sarasaland seem to have human royalty, but they also had regular citizens and military members that were currently walking alongside them.
The city itself reminded the brothers of a documentary about ancient Egypt that they watched in middle school. Although the part of the city that they had passed through had a wall and gates, the entire city seemed to stretch out for miles without end. There was a big river that passed through the city, and the group crossed a gigantic stone bridge to pass it that was decorated with carvings of flowers and strange dinosaur-like creatures. Crossing to the other side, the group made their way closer to the city square as the sound of music and chatter began to grow louder with each step.
"We're almost to the palace," Daisy shouted over the noise, "You might want to stay close. It gets pretty busy on Market Day."
The occupants of the city were hard at work buying and selling wares at the bazaar. Humans were seen fixing musical instruments and cooking delicious-smelling food and snacks, the Bunbuns were weaving fabrics and silks from threads that shimmered like gems, Toads were busy with constructing new stands and repairing roads, and Koopas were seen forging metalworks and jewelry, but as they passed by, the Mario Brothers began to notice that a lot of the citizens were beginning to stare and whisper the closer they got to their destination.
"Princess Peach has returned."
"Who are those little people with her?"
"The red one looks feral."
"Ha, the green one looks sickly. What are they feeding that poor thing?"
Normally, Luigi would shrink at the comments. After all, he was the more timid brother, the one that avoided any sort of confrontation, the one afraid of his own shadow. But right now, he was currently too interested in the princess that was currently dragging him through the square.
She sure is strong, Luigi thought to himself with a blush.
Meanwhile, Mario found himself falling in step with Peach, determined to get a question answered.
"Hey Peach," he asked, "How do you know the queen again?"
Peach tensed at the question, trying to find a way to answer before Daisy interrupted.
"You've seen her fight before, right? Well, where else did you think she learned combat? Her kingdom's Toads?"
Toad gave an offended yelp.
Peach gasped, taken out of her tense state at her friend's jest.
"Daisy! That's not nice."
"What? You know I'm right! At least the Toads that live here are able to use a sword."
Mario took in her words. The Toads of the Mushroom Kingdom, bless them, were more of the "panic and run" type, from the regular citizens up to the guards that surrounded the pink-and-white castle. Not to say that they weren't protective of her. By what Peach had told him, Toad himself was willing to be tortured for her when Bowser invaded her kingdom after he and DK had been stuck in that gigantic eel. But he knew that whatever fighting skills she had to complete that training course that he couldn't even get through on his BEST go-around was not the doing of the Toads.
At least not from there.
"Huh, so is she, like, your teacher? I mean, that's cool, y'know? You're still able to get advice from her when you need to. But why haven't you mentioned her?"
"We're here."
Peach blanched as they suddenly stopped.
The white marble of the palace gleamed in the afternoon sun as the group entered the palace, the white stone now turning into shades of orange and yellow as they headed towards another set of golden doors that were guarded by two Bunbuns, the door itself decorated with a giant lotus blossom design. The Bros and Toad couldn't help themselves as they ooh'd and ahh'd at the sight before them.
Peach, meanwhile, felt her palms grow sweaty from nervousness. Although it was true that she was raised by the Toads when she first arrived in this land, it was the Queen of Sarasaland who taught her how to be a leader. All of the training to become the Princess of the Mushroom Kingdom, all of her combat skills, her knowledge of power-ups, all of what made her a princess came from her.
And what had she done with that wisdom?
Oh, only put two whole kingdoms and her friends in danger!
Daisy, sensing her distress, let go of Luigi's hand and stood next to her.
"You ready?"
Peach stayed silent as she straightened her posture.
"Not really." She finally answered before turning to her companions.
"Okay, I know you probably have a lot of questions about, well, all of this. And I must confess that I haven't been very... transparent. But when we get in here, I'll be doing most of the talking."
The Bros and Toad stared at her in confusion before slowly nodding their heads.
"Alright Daisy, we're ready now."
Princess Daisy nodded her head, signaling the guards to open the doors.
The group followed the princess as she entered the throne room, taking in the sights surrounding them. The entire room was the same orange-yellow color scheme as the rest of the palace, but accented with green and white inlays as you got closer to the actual throne. The throne itself was golden, not unlike King Cranky's own throne in the Jungle Lands, but above the throne were white silk drapes, and at her right hand was an orange and yellow cushion with golden tassels around the edge.
It was then that they noticed the woman sitting on the throne.
The older woman sat with her back straight, her eyes seeming to stare directly into their souls as she scanned the room before turning her gaze toward Princess Peach.
Princess Daisy, leading the charge, walked towards the steps before kneeling on the ground at the very base. The four companions followed suit, with Daisy nearly causing Luigi to topple over himself as she dragged him down to the floor and Mario being pushed down by Peach as she sank down.
"Bayete, Indlovukazi," Daisy spoke up, "Your visitors have arrived."
The queen paused for a moment, her gaze switching between the princesses and the plumbers, a tiny smile gracing her lips before motioning for Daisy to sit on the cushion and for Peach, Mario, Luigi, and Toad to stand up.
"Welcome to Birabuto; I take it your journey here was a smooth one?"
Princess Peach smoothed her skirts as she answered.
"Yes, your Majesty. And I would like for you to meet my friends, Mario, Luigi, and Toad."
The queen's gaze was unwavering as she noticed their body language. Mario and Toad had placed themselves directly in front of her former student, becoming a living shield. Luigi, who for whatever reason was still on the floor, floundered his way next to his brother, almost knocking the three of them over to join the protection squad. Daisy couldn't help but give an amused giggle, making Luigi break out in a deep blush.
"So, you must be the Super Mario Brothers and that brave Toad boy that saved the universe. You have my respect and my thanks. Now, let's cut to the chase, shall we?"
Peach cleared her throat.
"Yes, um, as I had stated in my letter, we have had some problems with the king of the Darklands that resulted in him finally being captured and taken into custody inside the Mushroom Kingdom."
"Hm, I do recall meeting with the council members that were involved in that whole ordeal. But what does this have to do with Sarasaland and our Power Star? "
Council? Mario thought to himself, Did the Toad Council visit Sarasaland?
"Your Majesty," Peach stated, "Bowser has escaped from his confinement, and it's my belief that he will attempt to take Sarasaland's Power Star and use it for his plans for world domination.
Unbeknownst to the others, Taraji's blood ran cold in her veins, the images of last night's vision practically swimming in her mind.
"Go on."
But before Peach could continue, Mario interrupted.
"Wait a minute, the Toad council met with you already?"
Princess Peach's cheeks turned bright red as a wave of second-hand embarrassment crashed into her. In hindsight, she should have seen this coming, especially when they met with King Cranky. Luigi and Toad looked on anxiously as the queen held the red plumber's gaze before answering.
"No. Princess Peach, just how much have you told your companions about our ways?"
"Well, I...haven't mentioned everything to them."
Peach couldn't help but give a nervous chuckle as her teacher gave her a pointed look.
"A half-truth by omission is still a full-on lie. But that is a discussion for another day. In the meantime, you all will stay here for the night and rest. Tomorrow morning, the council will arrive, and we will convene on what our next steps are going forward."
With a clap of her hands, a couple of her servants gathered around the throne room.
With little room for argument, the servants quietly led the four of them out of the throne room, the door shutting behind them.
"Take our guests to our spare bedrooms. Dinner will be prepared in a few hours."
Later
Princess Peach tossed and turned in her bed, her mind racked with dread.
Dinner had been a rather quiet affair, as was any dinner that was made by the queen herself. The table was filled with rice and beans, a savory stew filled with meat and vegetables with nshima to scoop it up and eat with, and even (to her surprise) malva pudding, all of her favorites. But she couldn't even stomach it. Even the few bites she forced down her throat turned sour in her gut as that pit of despair grew larger and larger.
The council members were all arriving tomorrow in order to figure out how to capture Bowser and what to do with him in order to pay for his crimes.
Again.
And it was all her fault.
Giving up on going to sleep, Peach got up from the bed and began to pace the room, feeling guilty as the queen's words replayed in her head.
A half-truth by omission is still a full-on lie.
Does it even count as a lie? She thought to herself before shaking her head.
As a ruler, she was honor-bound to be an honest and wise princess, whether it was between other leaders or with the common folk. She had learned that from the best, after all.
But she didn't mean to keep Sarasaland or its ruler a secret. It just...never came up in conversation between her and the Mario Brothers. And why she didn't go to Sarasaland when this whole problem began?
It was...complicated.
Her thoughts were interrupted by a sudden knock on the door.
"Come in."
The door slowly opened to reveal Taraji, her hair in her bonnet and dressed in her white nightgown and robe as she smiled at her former student. Behind her stood Daisy, dressed in an orange tank top, shorts, and matching bonnet. Peach, ever the formalist, curtsied.
"Bayete, Indlovukazi. Bayete, Inkosazana."
Their smiles fell slightly in concern. Peach was always the prim and proper type. Had been that way since she was a little girl under Taraji's tutoring. But that was the first time in years that she had used their official titles, and in their native tongue nonetheless, while being in just their presence. She only ever did that when something was terribly wrong.
"Peach? What's wrong?" Taraji asked, a frown on her face.
Peach blanched for a moment.
"What, me? No, nothing's wrong. Nothing at all. Why? What would be wrong?"
Daisy snorted, unconvinced.
"Yeah right! You never call us by those titles unless something's up. So, spill!"
Peach shook her head, resuming her pacing as the two other royals watched.
"I'm fine. Just... got a lot on my mind right now."
Taraji said nothing at that. Instead, she sighed as she sat herself down on the vanity seat and grabbed the hairbrush that sat on the table.
"Sit down."
"But-"
"Sit."
With a sigh, Peach sat on the floor as Taraji began to brush her hair. Daisy, meanwhile, took a running start from the door and jumped onto her bed, jostling the bedsheets into more disarray. Rolling her eyes at her sister, Taraji turned her attention back to Peach.
"Now, tell me what's really going on. Why didn't you ask the council to help you in the first place?"
"I...It's just...I just...didn't want to bother them with something that I could handle by myself."
The two of them gave her an incredulous look.
"You're kidding, right?" Daisy deadpanned.
Taraji paused her brushing.
"Peach, I know that the situation was more dire than that. If reports from the last council meeting were correct, Bowser had not only captured the king of the Snow Lands and stolen their Power Star; but he also had threatened the safety of your kingdom and your people if you refused to marry him; he had ambushed and nearly killed the king and prince of Kong Country as well as the majority of the Kong army; and had threatened the lives of your red plumber, his brother, and their homeland. And this was all something you could have handled by yourself?"
Silence.
Daisy's eyes glanced between her friend and her sister, concerned.
"Look," she spoke up, "I don't like half of those stuffy folks either, but they're there for a reason, you know that, right?"
Peach jumped up at that, a huff of frustration escaping her lips.
"I know that! But... I can't help but feel as if I'm taken as a joke. I'm the only council member that is a princess; according to some members, my rule is illegitimate since I wasn't born a Mushroom Kingdom royal; and Bowser has been so much of a constant problem, I wasn't sure that they would listen to me! What else could I do? I-"
"Ipentshisi."
Peach turned around, her eyes cast down to the ground in shame. Taraji stood up and took her hands into her own, causing her to look up.
"A good ruler, regardless of what rank they are, doesn't just take care of their kingdom. A good ruler also knows when to ask for help. Both of which King Cranky and the Penguin King should have done. And even if you didn't want the council involved, you could have at least told us. You know that Sarasaland would have stood with you, don't you?"
Peach sighed, looking back down at the floor.
"I... I guess I wanted to prove to the council that I wasn't just some 'damsel in distress'. I wanted to protect the kingdom on my own, like you do."
And there it is.
Taraji sighed, leading her back to the seat she had abandoned.
"Peach, when I first became queen, the royal council had been disbanded for over a decade. I had to learn how to protect Sarasaland on my own because I was on my own. I had no one to help me or the empire, not to mention what had transpired for me to ascend the throne."
The young princesses paused at that, looking at each other and back at the queen as she seemed to visibly deflate at the mention of that night.
"When I was able to get the council back together, I vowed never to let any new ruler experience what I had to go through. Does that mean that they are infallible? No. We are not perfect in any sense of the word, but at least you would have the security of having that support when you need it. And as for questioning your legitimacy? You may not have been born into the original royal family, and you may not have been born in this very universe, but the Great Grambi brought you here and made you the princess of the Mushroom Kingdom for a reason. Don't ever doubt that."
"I know all that, but it still doesn't answer why."
Taraji laughed at that.
"Heh, still have that patience problem, I suppose."
"Well, old habits die hard, as Mario would say."
Taraji gave another small chuckle as she recalled the little red man that seemed to be glued to her hip. No doubt that he had sworn to be her protector.
Daisy snickered.
"Oh yeah, Mr. Knight-in-Ruby-Red! Sworn to protect pretty Princess Peach! Honestly, you two would be perfect together. "
The queen laughed, a rueful smile etching her face.
"Now, now, now. Don't think I didn't see you with the green one, Daisy. You seem quite smitten with him."
Daisy spluttered.
"S-s-smitten! HA! Who says I was smitten with that guy? Nope! No smitten-ness over here!"
That sent Peach into a laughing fit.
"Oh, please! You literally dragged poor Luigi from the city gates to the palace walls!"
But in their laughter, they had failed to notice a lone figure that was spying on them from above. Though invisible for the majority of the conversation, the shapeless blob that was hovering over them sneered a malignant smirk before blipping out of the room.
The three royals laughed and laughed, their voices echoing into the halls.
Today’s skele is: Dry Bones from Super Mario

“Winter is coming! FU#@ YEAH! BWAHAHA” Bowser is swearing. We all know it. (And i love it) I think Bowser likes Winter, cause he is a big fire-turtle-thing and can easily keep himself warm all the time. Even a Villain can enjoy the snow and build snow goombas! This is something that i plan to do every year, to compare my skills. I drew him with a Scarf, cause i thought it would look cute on him and i was not disapointed. This is also my first time drawing Bowser on computer or with colours. I think i did a good job! ^-^ Do you think this is worth a print for a T-Shirt?
FEUER FREI! BANG!! BANG!! Bowser has always been my favourite villain, since my very first mario game! I should really draw him more, but i am afraid, that i would mess up the drawing and being a disgrace to all bowser fans... :D Honestly, i have never drawn smoke like that. (shading a.s.o.) So i tried it with coal! #bowser #bowserkoopa #koopa #supermario #mario #nintendo #games #gamer #coaldrawing #bowserart #fanart #villain #fire #monster #finalboss #endboss #rageon #evilbowser #sharpteeth #redhair #evil #devil #demon #myart #artwork #lizzyeatsart
