Dodo

Dodo is Valentinaâ€™s assistant and second-in-command of her forces during her coup of Nimbus Land. Although Dodo has to put up with Valentinaâ€™s physical and verbal abuse, he remains loyal to Valentina until the end. Plus, it beats getting a real job. However, he unhealthily holds in his anger, which he releases by pecking golden statues of his boss (even though he is supposed to be polishing them).

Dodo was a vital member to Valentinaâ€™s plan to take over of Nimbus Land. It was Dodoâ€™s job to impersonate Prince Mallow, the long lost heir to the Nimbus Land throne. Although Dodo was obviously a large bird, he surprisingly fooled the populace of Nimbus Land into thinking he was actually the prince. During the coup, â€œPrince Mallowâ€ proposed to Valentina, thus allowing to her to â€œlegallyâ€ become queen.

When Mario and the real Mallow arrive in Nimbus Land, they decide to set things right. The master sculptor Garro disguises Mario as a golden statue and delivers him to the castle. Then Mario is placed with the other statues, and must avoid being caught by the statue-pecking Dodo. If Mario successfully fools Dodo, he will earn the Feather, which can increase his speed. If he fails, Mario fights and defeats the physically strong Dodo.

Regardless, Mario and company eventually reach the throne room to challenge Valentina and liberate Nimbus Land. However, Valentina and Dodo both run away. However, the large Dodo is not a fast runner, and Mario eventually catches up with him. Then the two duke it out for a second battle. Alternatively, Mario can grab a Star and become invincible. Then Mario simply has to run into Dodo to defeat him.

Eventually, Valentina and Dodo escape the palace. However, the suspicious public begins to question their future queen as they begin to see through her lies. Mario and company arrive right behind her, engaging her in battle. During the battle, Dodo challenges one of Marioâ€™s party members one-on-one. If this lone party member loses, the game ends. Eventually, Dodo is defeated for a third time and he returns to aid his boss. The pair combine their abilities; Valentina wields magic while Dodo uses his superior physical strength. However, Mario and company overcome the duo, and Dodo and Valentina fly away. Nimbus Land returns to a state of peace.

The two villains eventually find their way to the fortress of another villain, the demented Booster. Strangely enough, they decide to stay at his tower; and even stranger, Valentina and Booster eventually decide to get married. The couple arranges to be wed in Marrymore. Ultimately, Dodo presides over the wedding of the unusual couple.

Names
Although Dodo is his real name, the large bird assumes the name Prince Mallow during Valentinaâ€™s coup. In private, Valentina calls him by a less flattering name, Tubby.
