Chancellor

From the Super Mario Wiki

The Chancellor of Mushroom Kingdom.

The Chancellor of Mushroom Kingdom is an adviser to Princess Peach. He is an older, green-spotted Toad garbed in green with gold trim. During the events of Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, the Chancellor assumed the duties of Peach during her absence. He is also overprotective of the princess, forbidding her from joining Mario in his quest to defeat Smithy. Early in the game, the Chancellor gave Mario a map of Mushroom World. He also gives Mario authorization to stock-up on items in the castle's vault, which is protected by the Vault Guard. Additionally, the Chancellor is easily frightened (like many other Toads). He was scared of Mario's impersonation of King Bowser, and during the Smithy Gang's invasion of the Mushroom Kingdom, the Chancellor hid behind a column in the throne room during the entire occupation. The leader is also forgetful at times. He looks amazingly similar to a later character in the series, Toadsworth.

[edit] Trivia

• In the beta version of Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, the Chancellor was a bearded, generic, elderly-looking Toad. When the Chancellor was given a new design, his old one was used for the elderly residents of the Mushroom Kingdom, including the shopkeeper of the local Item Shop. The older-looking sprite of the Chancellor may have been a placeholder.
• The Toad Minister that later appears in Paper Mario may in fact be the Chancellor, as their roles are nearly identical and they have the same name in the Japanese versions of the games.
