'''Mushroom retainers''' (sometimes spelled '''Mushroom Retainers'''), also known as just '''Retainers''', are a group of [[Toad (species)|Toads]] (previously called Mushroom People) that appear in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' They are [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]]'s seven mushroom servants who are not transformed, unlike the rest of the Mushroom People, but were captured by [[Bowser]] and the [[Koopa (species)|Koopa]]. The term "mushroom retainer" would also be used in other ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' works. The character, [[Toad]], is referred to as such in the 1993 ''Nintendo Character Guide'' and the ''[[Nintendo Adventure Books]]'' and the ''[[Nintendo Comics System]]'' issue, "[[The Legend]]". In the ''Nintendo Comics System'' series, [[Wooster]] is referred to as the royal mushroom assistant. The mushroom retainers' Japanese name, Kinopio, initially referred to this group, though it would later appear as the Toad species' name, as well as the [[Toad|character's]] name. Other Toads have been portrayed as guards in the ''Super Mario'' franchise, such as the Toads that try to protect Peach from Bowser in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', though they are not referred to as mushroom retainers.
== History ==
=== ''Super Mario'' series ===
==== ''Super Mario Bros.'' / ''VS. Super Mario Bros.'' / ''Super Mario Bros. Deluxe'' ====
[[File:Mushroom Retainer SMB1 W1-4 rescued.png|thumb|left|Mario rescuing the first mushroom retainer]]
According to the instruction manual for ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', [[Bowser]], and the [[Koopa (species)|Koopa]] capture the seven mushroom retainers and are imprisoned in the first seven [[castle|castles]]. The first mushroom retainer can be rescued in [[World 1-4 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-4]], after defeating the [[fake Bowser]]. The retainer will say thank [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] for rescuing it, but will also remind them to rescue [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]]. They say their lines English, even in other versions of the game presumably due to programming limitations at the time, with English text being common in Japanese games. Rescuing any of the mushroom retainers is not mandatory for beating the game and can be skipped by taking [[Warp Zone|Warp Zones]]. The English instruction booklet claims the mushroom retainers are under Bowser's spell; the Japanese manual makes no such reference. ''The Official Nintendo Player's Guide'' describes them as Toadstool's maids and refers to "her" in the singular. While they reprise their roles in ''[[VS. Super Mario Bros.]]'', the ending has the seven mushroom retainers appearing after Toadstool is rescued, appearing above the brother and Toadstool, with a few disappearing, seemingly to make them look like they are celebrating.
 
In its [[Reissue|remake]] in ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'', the retainers are trapped in bags, being released once Mario or Luigi rescues them. The retainers have unique animations for being rescued and the number of retainers depends on the [[World|world]] number, with [[World 6 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 6]] showing four retainers, rather than six, making twenty-six mushroom retainers to rescue.
 
*[[World 1-4 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-4]]: The retainer will jump out of the bag and keep jumping in celebration.
[[File:3toads.gif|thumb|right|World 3's mushroom retainers]]
*[[World 2-4 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 2-4]]: Two retainers jump out of the bag and use a V sign. The left retainer uses its right hand, while the right uses its left hand.
*[[World 3-4 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 3-4]]: When the bag is opened, one retainer is initially shown. Two other retainers appear behind it with their fists out (the left one using its right hand and the right one using its left hand) and jump out.
*[[World 4-4 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 4-4]]:  When the bag is opened, one retainer is initially shown. Three other retainers appear on the others' heads. They all jump off and land on the ground, giving a V sign with their right hand.
*[[World 5-4 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 5-4]]: Five retainers jump out of the bag in a ball and fall on the ground, dizzy.
*[[World 6-4 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 6-4]]: A big mushroom cap, based on their mushroom heads, jumps out of the bag with four retainers carrying it.
*[[World 7-4 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 7-4]]: The bag's right side breaks, with small seven retainers walking out. The retainer on the front carries a flag.
 
In ''[[Super Mario Bros. Deluxe]]'', the mushroom retainers are animated when talking to Mario or Luigi. Their speech to either brother now has a comma after "you." One of the new features, the Mystery Room, incorporates the retainers. Once one is rescued, they'll appear in the Mystery Room and each retainer gives out a different reward.
 
*World 1-4: It shows the player banners to print out on the [[nwiki:Game Boy Printer|Game Boy Printer]].
*World 2-4: It shows the player animations.

==== ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels'' ====
In ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'', the mushroom retainers play the same role as they did in their first game. The ending featured in ''VS. Super Mario Bros.'' is retained here. The additional worlds, [[World A]], [[World B]], and [[World C]] have additional mushroom retainers to rescue. The ''Super Mario All-Stars'' version reuses the same animations that are used through the numbered castles from the first game. The letter worlds reuse the animations from previous worlds, with [[World A-4]] using [[World 5-4 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|World 5-4]]'s, [[World B-4]] using [[World 6-4 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|World 6-4]]'s, and [[World C-4]] using [[World 7-4 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|World 7-4]]'s.
 
==== ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' ====
[[File:PeachSMB3.png|thumb|left|Toadstool telling Mario that she "is in another castle!"]]
While no mushroom retainers appear in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', Toadstool references their lines from ''Super Mario Bros.'' when she is rescued in {{world-link|8|bowser3|World 8-Bowser's Castle (Super Mario Bros. 3)}} saying, "Thank you! But our Princess is in another castle!…Just kidding!" However, the Japanese version does not refer to this line, with its rerelease, ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', changing it to, "Thank you! Peace has at last returned to our fair [[Mushroom Kingdom]]!", which is more accurate to the Japanese script. In ''[[NES Remix 2]]'', the twentyish in Remix II where Princess Peach has to defeat Bowser and rescue herself, has the kidnapped Peach state that "you're in another castle!"
 
==== ''Super Mario 3D Land'' ====
In ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'', the two castle levels, {{world-link|1|castle3d|World 1-Castle (Super Mario 3D Land)}} and {{world-link|5|castle3d|World 1-Castle (Super Mario 3D Land)}} have Toads as hostages referencing the mushroom retainers.
 
==== ''Super Mario Maker'' ====
In ''[[Super Mario Maker]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s 10 Mario Challenge or the 100 Mario Challenge on Easy difficulty, [[Toad]] will reference the mushroom retainers' line when he meets Mario by saying, "Mario! It's terrible! Princess Peach has been taken to another castle!"
 
=== ''[[Super Mario Bros. Special]]'' ===
[[File:SMBS-Toad-SharpX1.png|thumb|right]]
Mushroom retainers play the same role as they did in ''Super Mario Bros.''
 
=== All Night Nippon: Super Mario Bros. ===
[[File:ANN D-4 personalities.png|thumb|left|All the hosts in the ending of ''All Night Nippon: Super Mario Bros.'']]
In ''[[All Night Nippon: Super Mario Bros.]]'', the mushroom retainers are replaced with the [[Wikipedia:Nippon Broadcasting System|Nippon Broadcasting System]] [[List of show hosts in All Night Nippon: Super Mario Bros.|hosts]], who otherwise retain the same role the mushroom retainers did.
 
=== ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'' ===
[[Toadsworth the Younger]] refers to the mushroom retainer's lines when [[Baby Peach]] is launched away with the [[Baby Cakes]] move when he says, "[[Mario|You]] will save her, won't you? I assure you she's NOT in another castle."
 
=== ''The Super Mario Bros. Movie'' ===
In ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'', the blue Toad guard that defends [[Peach's Castle]] refers to this line to Mario and Toad when he says, "Oh wait, I did. Our princess, though, is in another castle!" In the Japanese dub, he says, "Our princess, though, is in another castle!" in English.

Donkey Kong, "The Big Switch-a-Roo"

A robot built by Cranky Kong appears in the Donkey Kong Country episode "The Big Switch-a-Roo". The robot has a Kong-like appearance with a toaster on its head. This robot is built for Bluster to help make barrels for him. After Donkey Kong arrives at Cranky's Cabin (after jumping out of Funky's plane), one of Cranky's brain transfer helmets lands on the robot's head. Later, DK attempts to mimic Klump by wearing one of the brain transfer helmets, accidentally pressing the button on the helmet when saluting, causing his and the robot's "brain" to switch, though DK does not notice this. Cranky and Bluster soon discover this while the former searches for him. Bluster decides to use the robot, DK's body, to make barrels. However, his plan goes poorly as the robot quickly presses the buttons at Bluster Barrelworks. It appears to be literal-minded as it attempts to snap his neck after he claims it is a "pain in the neck."

DK (while in the robot's body) eventually finds Diddy, explaining his predicament to him in a song. They both return to Cranky, realizing that DK's original body is gone, working for Bluster. Klump and Krusha eventually arrive at the cabin, with DK attempting to fight them. However, Krusha breaks his head off, and Cranky cannot fix it. Bluster and the robot in DK's body return to the cabin after the Kongs (with Diddy holding the head of the robot that DK's brain is in) leave to raid K. Rool's hideout. The robot is then under Klump's control while in Candy's body. Both K. Rool and Krusha return to see this, though K. Rool finds it useless, telling it to "go make a barrel." The robot attempts to make a barrel with K. Rool in it, trapping him. The Kongs then arrive back, and eventually, DK returns to his original body. Bluster demands a refund for the robot, stating it to be "dumber than DK."

Club-wielding Kremlings, also known as Kremlins[sic], or Kremlings with clubs are enemies riding Mine Carts in Donkey Kong 64. They appear in the Mine Cart Rides only, riding on a track next to the Kongs. Club-wielding Kremlings are similar to Krashes in that they are both Kremlings that ride Mine Carts, with the Donkey Kong 64 versions being muscular and wielding a club, looking distinct from Kritters, enemies that Krashes are derived from and resembling Klubba and Kudgel, other club wielding Kremlings. The Kongs can jump over the club to avoid taking damage, or else they lose three DK Coins. Club-wielding Kremlings are defeated if they crash into a pile of rocks or fall into a pit. The active Kong usually has to pull a lever to defeat club-wielding Kremlings either way.
