Captain Goomba (Mario & Luigi series)

Captain Goomba is the main protagonist of the Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser story mode from the upcoming title, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions. The mode takes place parallel to the main story of Superstar Saga, after the Koopa Cruiser crashes into Stardust Fields. His goal throughout the story is to travel around the Beanbean Kingdom to reunite and rally all members of Bowser's army, and ultimately, reunite with their leader, Bowser. While Captain Goomba serves as the main character of the story, other captains can be unlocked, including a Captain Shy Guy and a Captain Boo.

He starts out in a barrel, swearing with his Goomba comrade that they'll have a bigger role. However, after Fawful's attack on the Koopa Cruiser, he was separated from his fellow minions and grew worried. He eventually heard a crash as well as Bowser being flung through the sky upon emerging from Hoohoo Mountain (presumably, this occurred after the Mario Bros. fight against Tolstar due to the timing). He eventually ends up inadvertently picking a fight with a Beanie. After recongregating with his allies (leading to an "awkward hug" by pouncing on one of them), he is then promoted to captain of the unit (although it is heavily implied that they simply stuck him in the position because the others were unwilling to take up the mantle), which he accepts, although he humorously ends up not understanding the position or the flag. He then leads them to his first battle and recruiting more soldiers (and being told he had an aura) before charging off to save Bowser. However, he ends up running into a wall.
