'''Koopa Bros. Fortress''' is a [[fortress]] that was once home to [[Bob-omb]]s but was taken over by the [[Koopa Bros.]] prior to the events of ''[[Paper Mario]]''. The Koopa Bros. first traveled here in search of excitement, finding their native home of [[Koopa Village]] too boring. They were apparently well-received by the fortress's Bob-omb inhabitants at first, although [[Kammy Koopa]]'s admiration of them corrupted them into the vain and evil characters players are familiar with and even made them turn against the Bob-ombs, enslaving them. In Chapter 1, [[Mario]], [[Goombario]], and [[Kooper]] travel here from [[Pleasant Path]] to find the first [[Star Spirits|Star Spirit]], solving several puzzles and fighting enemies such as [[Koopa Troopa]]s, [[Koopa Paratroopa|Paratroopa]]s, and Bob-ombs. On the way, [[Koopa Bros.#Yellow Ninjakoopa|one of the Koopa Bros.]] traps them in a cell, where they meet [[Bombette]] (as well as several other imprisoned Bob-ombs who had previously risen up against the Koopa Bros.), who makes an escape route by exploding. They reach the Koopa Bros., defeat them, and rescue [[Eldstar]], the first Star Spirit.
Koopa Bros. Fortress can actually be thought of as somewhat mysterious, as very little of the large amounts of information about its history given in its [[Tattle]]s and other parts of the game are specific. It is, for instance, unknown who built Koopa Bros. Fortress, a fact that Goombario himself even points out in a Tattle. According to Goombario, Koopa Bros. Fortress was first erected around the same time that Bob-ombs began inhabiting Pleasant Path (which was said earlier in ''Paper Mario'' to have been not long before the game's setting), and that the Bob-ombs soon became its caretakers, although it was confirmed that they themselves did not build it. The fortress was also said to be in ruin (perhaps due to the excessive explosions caused by the fortress's Bob-omb inhabitants, a fact which Goombario later cited as the reason for the several cracks in Koopa Bros. Fortress's walls), although the Koopa Bros. seemed to have rebuilt it upon their arrival.


==Enemies Found==
Very little is known about the origin or purpose of the Fortress, as little history is given in [[Tattle]]s and other sources. According to Goombario, Koopa Bros. Fortress was first erected by an unknown group around the same time that Bob-ombs began inhabiting Pleasant Path (which was said earlier in ''Paper Mario'' to have been not long before the game's setting), and that the Bob-ombs soon took over the fortress from its creators and became its caretakers. The fortress was in ruins, which Goombario suggested was a consequence of frequent Bob-omb detonations, and was restored to a functioning state by the Koopa Bros.

Koopa Bros. Fortress is a fortress that was once home to Bob-ombs but was taken over by the Koopa Bros. prior to the events of Paper Mario. The Koopa Bros. first traveled here in search of excitement, finding their native home of Koopa Village too boring. They were apparently well-received by the fortress's Bob-omb inhabitants at first, although Kammy Koopa's admiration of them corrupted them into the vain and evil characters players are familiar with and even made them turn against the Bob-ombs, enslaving them. In Chapter 1, Mario, Goombario, and Kooper travel here from Pleasant Path to find the first Star Spirit, solving several puzzles and fighting enemies such as Koopa Troopas, Paratroopas, and Bob-ombs. On the way, one of the Koopa Bros. traps them in a cell, where they meet Bombette (as well as several other imprisoned Bob-ombs who had previously risen up against the Koopa Bros.), who makes an escape route by exploding. They reach the Koopa Bros., defeat them, and rescue Eldstar, the first Star Spirit.

Very little is known about the origin or purpose of the Fortress, as little history is given in Tattles and other sources. According to Goombario, Koopa Bros. Fortress was first erected by an unknown group around the same time that Bob-ombs began inhabiting Pleasant Path (which was said earlier in Paper Mario to have been not long before the game's setting), and that the Bob-ombs soon took over the fortress from its creators and became its caretakers. The fortress was in ruins, which Goombario suggested was a consequence of frequent Bob-omb detonations, and was restored to a functioning state by the Koopa Bros.

In volume 26 of Super Mario-Kun, Mario and his partners encounter the fortress later in the story compared to the games.

Trivia[edit]

  • In a demo movie after the title screen for Paper Mario (before pressing START Button), Mario and Parakarry are shown avoiding the Bullet Bills fired from the Bill Blasters, which only happens prior to the fight with the Koopa Bros. However, this cannot be done in-game, as Parakarry does not join Mario's party until after the Koopa Bros. have been defeated.
  • The background music for the Koopa Bros. Fortress contains elements from the fortress theme in Super Mario Bros. 3.
