The Secret Society of X-Nauts, also known simply as the X-Nauts, is an evil organization led by Sir Grodus. The majority of the operatives are also called X-Nauts, though there are other classes of soldiers and creatures in Grodus' employ. Their base of operations is the X-Naut Fortress, which is located on the Moon.

[edit] History

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

All that is known about the X-Nauts stems from their failed plan to conquer the world using a 1,000-year-old demon known as the Shadow Queen. Grodus somehow came in contact with a trio of sisters known collectively as the Shadow Sirens, who told him that the Shadow Queen could only be released from her prison if the seven Crystal Stars were collected, and a vessel provided for her disembodied soul to possess. The X-Nauts kidnapped Princess Peach to use as the vessel, and Mario was manipulated into gathering the Crystal Stars in an attempt to save her from her captors.

However, Grodus had been mislead by the Shadow Sirens, and when he tried to command the resurrected Shadow Queen to do his bidding, she destroyed his body. Grodus' mechanical head; his second-in-command, Lord Crump; and a few X-Naut soldiers were last seen in Poshley Heights, having abandoned their lunar base.
