Overview[]

The Koopa Troop[]

The Koopa Troop is the group led by Bowser and, like their aggresive leader, is the most common antagonist of the Mushroom Kingdom. It has been known by various names throughout the history of the Super Mario series: the Turtle Tribe, Bowser Baddies, Koopa Clan, Bowser Organisation, or simply the Koopa. Despite the name, the group is comprised of many different Mushroom World species, such as Goombas, Boos and Bullet Bills, though most members are the eponymous turtles. According to Kammy Koopa in Super Paper Mario, the motive of the Koopa Troop is to pay back those who have mistreated their species, though it is most often a front for Bowser's militaristic and expansionist goals.

Bowser[]

Bowser is one of the main recurring characters in the Super Mario Bros. franchise and serves as the main antagonist. He is a member Koopa species, as well as its king. In most of the main series games, Bowser's goals to conquer the Mushroom Kingdom, Mushroom World, or even the entire universe serve to drive the plot into motion. He is also well known for his constant kidnapping of Princess Peach. The King of the Koopas and the Mario Bros. are fierce rivals, though they have teamed up on occasion to fight a common enemy.

Dawn of Man[]

Hail Bowser Koopa, almighty ruler of the Koopa species! As one of the most powerful beings in the Mushroom World, there should have been nothing standing in the way of your conquest of the Mushroom Kingdom, and subsequent rule with an iron fist with the beautiful, sweet Princess Peach at your side. Unfortunately for you, however, your thirst for conquest was always matched by the impudent determination of those mustached plumbers, the Mario Bros.

However, on this new, unknown but fertile world, you have the opportunity to create the thriving empire that your loyal Koopa subjects deserve... without the interference of any stupid plumbers. Great Demon King of the Koopas, can you show all of the puny humans on this world the true power of the Koopa Troopa? Can you build a civilzation that will stand the test of time?
