List of Toad profiles and statistics

This is the list of profiles and statistics for Toad.

Nintendo Character Guide (1993)

Toad a.k.a. "Little Toadie"
Toad is a heroic little Mushroom Retainer - an attendant of the Princess - who was off visiting relatives in the Fungus Federation at the time of the Koopa War. When he returned home, he found a great many bricks and horsehair plants that reminded him of his friends who had gone missing along with his beloved Princess.

Bio from The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 Writers Bible

Lines in green are only present in the original writer's bible, while lines in red are only present in the DVD version.

Toad was left on his own at an early age and managed to survive on the streets of many magic lands by his quick wit and fast feet. He met the Princess when he was delivering pizzas and attempting to sell encyclopedias to the Mushroom Kingdom Palace. She was so impressed by his eagerness to improve himself that she got him a job in the Royal Kitchen.

And when King Koopa took over the Mushroom Kingdom and the Princess was cast on the streets, Toad repaid her kindness by serving as her guide, loyal servant, and diplomatic adviser as they wended their dangerous ways through the multi-leveled Mushroom World.

Toad is street-smart, very bright, and totally resourceful. He’s fond of practical jokes and much more independent in mind and action than the other heroes.

He’s not too sure the Mario Bros. know what they are they’re doing and often launches his own counterplan which sometimes saves their hides and sometimes doubles their jeopardy.

He says things to both friend and enemy that most kids would like to say, but don’t have the courage. Toad is street-smart, very bright, and totally resourceful. All in all, he’s exactly the kind of Mushroom you’d want guarding your flank in a Fireball Fight or facing a clutch of snapping Piranha Plants.

Though its appearance calls to mind an infant's toy, the Quacker is really a fully functional motorbike with some serious acceleration. That's because its frame is so light, you might expect it to float on water like a swan boat! But that lightness also makes it easy for other karts to push around, so try to stay out of trouble.

One of the many Mushroom Kingdom Toads who serve Peach. Many of his fellow Toads are involved with running the Olympic Games, while others are participating in the actual events.

Miis' Dialogues (Wii U version)

  • Toads come in all sorts of colors, but share the same name. In general, they're rather serious little dudes, and also unfailingly polite.
  • Toads are the inhabitants of the Mushroom Kingdom. They're all cute little fellas with what look like mushroom caps for heads. Most of them serve Princess Peach in her castle, though they're also helping to run things here at the Olympic Games. Talk about busy little bees!
  • The color of a Toad's head varies from individual to individual. You might think of it as a way of expressing a little bit of individuality. Those heads really are kinda cute, don't you think? I wonder if I can find a Toad-shaped hat somewhere...
