When the [[Smithy Gang]] launch their attack on [[Mario World|Mario's world]], [[Exor]] crashes into [[Bowser's Castle|Bowser's Keep]] and occupies it. As Exor fell from the sky, he shattered the Star Road, and as a result, seven [[Star Piece (Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars)|Star Pieces]] are scattered throughout the world, and [[wish]]es are unable to be granted. Because of this, Geno is sent to retrieve the Star Pieces and restore the power of wishes to the world.

After defeating Bowyer, Geno reveals to the heroes that he is a warrior from Star Road and that he has assumed the form of the Geno doll to fight the Smithy Gang. Additionally, he states that wishes can never come true again until all the Star Pieces are recovered. He also reveals his real name, ♡♪!?. However, this is impossible to pronounce, so the star warrior assumes the name of the doll: Geno. After explaining everything, Geno decides to join forces with Mario and Mallow to find the remaining Star Pieces.

Eventually, Mario, Mallow, Geno, Bowser, and Peach collect the remaining Star Pieces and defeat [[Smithy]]. With Smithy destroyed, Geno decides to leave the doll's wooden body, returning to the form of a star and bringing the Star Pieces to Star Road. Repairing the celestial road, the power of wishes return to the world. The lifeless Geno doll can be seen sitting behind [[Mario]] and company on [[Vista Hill]] while they witness Exor disintegrate.

Geno appears in the ''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'' volume of the ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'' manga in the same role as in the original game.
Geno appears as a centric character in volume [[Super Mario-kun Volume 50|50]] and [[Super Mario-kun Volume 51|51]] of the ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'' manga. Geno is actually absent for the majority of the volumes, having been forced by [[Princess Peach]] to switch places with him and leaving him at her castle to take her place in the form of a disguise. It isn't until the battle against [[Smithy]] that he shows up again in the story.

Geno's personality is strongly based on his confidence and attitude. Geno has more of a defiant, heroic attitude. His eagerness to confront the villain may be due to his status as an authority figure from Star Road. He also tends to show more enthusiasm than any other party member.

Geno comes off as very powerful from his first appearance as a doll when Gaz attacks using Geno and accidentally hits Mario and knocks him out. However, when Geno tries to fight Bowyer, upon striking Bowyer says, "Strong you are, but stronger am I!" One of Geno's magic powers is also potentially the most powerful attack in game, [[Geno Whirl]]. If timed just right, it deals 9,999 points of damage; if not timed right, it does average damage at best. The skill works only on regular enemies, as well as [[Speardovich]] clones, [[Machine Made]], and [[Exor]].

He also has access to the most powerful attack in the game, [[Geno Whirl]], which deals 9,999 points of damage if timed right.


Although powerful, Geno is quite amiable, quick to make friends with Mario and Mallow. He has a strong sense of duty and responsibility, and his role on Star Road may be analogous to Mario's role in the [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. He even worries over the "ownership" of his physical form, and promises to return the body to the home from whence it came.

==Battle==
Geno is a very potent offensive character overall, having the highest speed of any party member (30), comparable attack stats to Bowser, and high magic attack stats and potent special moves primarily revolving around single and multiple enemy attacks. His one support move, [[Geno Boost]], bolsters attack (and defense if timed properly) stats even further. When equipped with the [[Feather (accessory)|Feather]] or [[Troopa Pin]], Geno is the only character capable of defeating a [[Shy Ranger]] (provided Mario does not have the Super Suit + Attack Scarf combination). However, his [[Heart Point|HP]] growth begins to stall after level 20 and his special equipment is subpar at best, with his ultimate weapon, the [[Star Gun]], not being as powerful as that of others, such as Mario's [[Lazy Shell]], while his ultimate armor, the [[Star Cape]] is the second worst in the game, making him relatively weaker in both attack and defense power later in the game despite his high base stats. Still, Geno Boost and [[Geno Flash]], one of the strongest special moves in the game that strikes all enemies, make Geno useful to have on any team.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*The sprites of Geno's star form when possessing the Geno doll and those seen at the end of the game are vastly different, the former being a small, white, almost realistic star while the latter was a yellow, more traditional ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' star surrounded by yellow dots. Similarly, the sprites of the Geno doll when playing with Gaz and the one sitting pose of it seen at the end of the game are proportionally inaccurate to each other.
