Village Leader
Chief Yoshi is the leader of the clan of Yoshis who live in Yoshi's Village on Lavalava Island. Respectable and reliable from the start, his closest friend, an unnamed Yellow Yoshi, claims that his future as a leader was evident from their adventures as children. During these adventures, the Chief Yoshi frequently committed acts of mischief. The events include his attempts at climbing trees, throwing rocks around, and bothering the local Ravens. It can be inferred that he grew more mature as he aged. Eventually, he was selected to be the new chief and has since performed his duty infallibly. He and Raphael the Raven are acquaintances.
During the events of Paper Mario, Mario visited Yoshi Village searching for one of the Star Spirits. During this time, Chief Yoshi was flabbergasted when he discovered that the children of the island have run away into the jungle. Upon Mario's return of the five kids, the leader gave Mario the Jade Raven, the key to finding Raphael the Raven.
Chief Yoshi is a standard Green Yoshi. Unlike the other Yoshi's in his clan, he can be easily identified by his overweight frame, feather, and arm band. Additionally, he looks more tired than the others.
