The village chief of Kinoko Yama is an elder Toad that appeared in the Dr. Mario manga. He is an old Toad with long mustache and eyebrows, a tall mushroom cap with vertical stripes, and what looks like a bald spot on the top.
During a pandemic created by Gahaha Daiō, his village is spared from the virus due to something unknown. Mario, Peach, and Daisy go to investigate. The village chief approaches them first, but as he explains, he and his villagers were not even aware of the virus or why they are immune to it. Gahaha Daiō also arrives to infect them, and while fleeing from the Dokudoku Pakkun Flower, Mario, the princesses and the villagers hide behind the Miracle Kinoko. The chief explains that the mushroom is their god and, as they soon realize it, it is also the reason behind the virus immunity. The chief quickly gives a bite of the mushroom to the princesses (who were heavily infected), curing them, and Mario makes a cure out of it to defeat Gahaha Daiō. After that, Mario and the princesses leave the village to cure the rest of the Mushroom Kingdom.
He reappears in Super Mario Bros. 4: Super Mario World 6 as one of the candidates for the People's Honor Award in chapter 3, friendly headbutting with the Tome Kuribō on who between them will get the award. They are then seen congratulating Mario and witnessing how the fire force are taming the flames spread in the Kinoko Biru.
