Alien
- For a list of aliens see here.
Aliens are life forms that come from outer space, or another planet, galaxy or dimension. Aliens first appeared (chronologically) in Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins.
Appearence and Adaptations
Aliens are stereotypically described as ethier gray or green humanoid like beings with antenas while they are actually just as unique as the organisims living on Earth and the Mushroom World. Aliens range from Exor, a giant sword-like being of another dimension; to Ridley, the dragon leader of a band of Space Pirates. Aliens can live in a wide range of habitats, including outer space.
Aliens in History
Aliens have played a major role in both the Real World and the Mushroom Kingdom historicaly. Decades ago (when Mario and Luigi were babies) an alien race known as the Shroobs attacked the Mushroom Kingdom in hopes of eventually taking control of the entire planet. The reason for this was based around the fact that their home planet was dying and withering. The Shroobs planned to take down the planet and conquer it with brute force. The Shroobs possed a massive fleet of Flying Saucers and upon contact with the planet they immediately took action and destroyed Toad Town. Most of the Mushroom Kingdom eventually fell under Shroob control. Luckily Mario and Luigi along with the help from their younger selves defeated the Shroobs, saved the kingdom and the entire planet.
Aliens also have played a big part in Earth's history. An alien race under the rule of Heini visited Earth with plans to eat the entire human race. The aliens under Heini's rule planned to turn all people who hear the word "Holerö" into food. This word was hidden in a song like a subliminal message. Heini disguised himself as a human singer and sang his music around large groups of people, these people would then be turned into food. Fans of the music (presumably already turned into food) would then be attracted to his "concerts". Heini organized large gatherings of the Food People with the use of these "concerts". When all the Food People where in one place the aliens would then devoure them. This was put to a stop with the help of Mario, Bomberman, and T.T.
Aliens haven't only been destructive and menacing they have also contributed to the help of rescuing the entire world as we know it. In the events of Super Paper Mario Squirps helped Mario in his quest to defeat Count Bleck by helping him get through the Whoa Zone. Queen Bee also helped Mario in his quest to defeating Bowser and rescuing Peach by providing to him a launch star. Olimar with the help of Pikmin helped defeat Tabuu.
Way of Life
Aliens like humans and mushroom people have their own rituals, government, technology, and language. An example of an alien ritual is the Intergalactic Olympics partly organized by the aliens Hösn and Dösn.
Technology
Aliens are famous in a sort of speak for their technologicaly advanced civilizations but the aliens actually have very widespread technology levels. The Shroobs were very advanced in fields such as space travle, genetic engineering, and weaponry while the Quirks were shown to be less advanced than humans. Aliens are almost always seen using UFOs as a means of transportation. Xananab, an alien of an unamed species, is usaly seen driving the Banana Spaceship.
Government
Most of the known alien government is monarchy but is as a wide variaty as humans on Earth have. Squirpia, a fallen alien kingdom was once under rule of Squirpina XIV. Other alien monarchies include the Shroob's civiliztaion wich was under the rule of Elder Princess Shroob.
Language
The most notable alien language is the Shroob language which when written is nonsensical picture text. When the Shroob language is spoken, it merley sounds like gibberish.
