 '''Magic Wands''' (or '''magic wands''')<ref>''Super Mario Bros. 3'' instruction booklet, page 5.</ref> are items that are often seen in the hands of the [[Koopalings]] and [[Magikoopa]]s. In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', Magic Wands were stolen from the [[Mushroom World]]'s [[kings]] and were used to transform them into various helpless creatures (which vary between the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] version and the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]]/[[Game Boy Advance|GBA]] reissues).  The Koopalings also used the wands to shoot harmful projectiles when encountered as bosses. [[Mario]] and/or [[Luigi]] had to retrieve them in the [[airship]] to restore the king and proceed to the next [[world]].
 Magic Wands, along with the Koopalings, appeared again in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. Their most recent appearances have been in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', and ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe]]''.
 ==History==
 ===''Super Mario'' series===
 ====''Super Mario Bros. 3''====
-Seven Magic Wands debuted in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', where one of the seven Koopalings stole one each from the seven kings and use them to turn the kings into animals (or, in the case of the [[Pipe Maze]] king, a plant). In the [[e-Reader]] levels for ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', despite the wands being returned to their rightful owners, {{Larry}}, {{Morton}}, and {{Ludwig}} were shown to wield them in battle again. Promotional artwork for the pinball game adaptation ''[[Super Mario Bros. Mushroom World]]'' showed that, aside from the Koopalings, [[Bowser]] utilized a similar wand.

In this game, the wands' standard projectiles are "'''magic smoke rings''',"<ref>''Nintendo Power'' Volume 11. Page 11. "''Avoid the magic smoke rings from his wand.''"</ref> whereas in subsequent games, the spells bear the Magikoopa insignia.

 ====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''====

-In ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', Magic Wands are once again used by the seven Koopalings to defeat Mario and his friends. As with ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', each Koopaling can generate spells of varying speed and intensity, with the exception of {{Wendy}} and {{Lemmy}}, who utilize glowing [[ring (projectile)|ring]]s and [[magical ball|circus ball]]s, respectively. The spells emitted by the Koopalings' wands also bear the Magikoopa insignia, indicating a probable connection.

-Alongside the Koopalings, their Magic Wands also make a return in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', where all the Koopalings, with the exception of Wendy, use their wands in combat. In addition, although Lemmy retains his wand's ability to conjure circus balls, Morton's normal spells are instead replaced with conjuring spiked balls in his fight with Mario. All the Koopalings used their Magic Wands again in the final level where they attempt to defeat Mario by turning him into stone and making him fall in [[lava]]. The Koopalings eventually utilize their wands once again near the ending, this time to aid Bowser by having him grow larger, although this also resulted in them being hit by the newly enlarged Bowser.

Iggy, as per usual, shoots out green fire with his wand, although he also fires red fireballs that, upon making contact with the magma in his cabin, summon [[Magmaargh]]s. Ludwig fires his regular blue fire spells in threes as usual. However, he also utilized the wand to create two false duplicates of himself and the wand. The clones fire two magic blasts. Additionally, the orb of the Magic Wands now have purple glow to it whenever each of the three Koopalings is casting his fireballs.

 ===Abilities===
 The Magic Wands were capable of transforming people into animals/plants, although it is implied that they can also be used to restore them to their original form. In addition, the wands can also fire three-ring shots/spellballs, or, in some cases, summon [[Ring (projectile)|candy ring]]s (Wendy O. Koopa), spiked balls (Morton Koopa Jr., ''New Super Mario Bros 2'' only), or [[magical ball]]s (Lemmy Koopa). At least in Iggy and Ludwig's case, the wands can also either summon enemies such as Magmarrghs or create duplicates of the wand's wielder. Although the wands have all of these abilities, it appears they do not affect other magical items as, in ''Paper Mario: Color Splash'', Lemmy's wand does not appear to affect the Green Big Paint Star.
