Story spoilers: This profile discusses character history and events in the game.

Toad is featured in Super Mario 64 — Castle attendant. This profile covers their background, appearance, personality, story role and practical gameplay details.

Edition covered

Original Nintendo 64 game with 120 Power Stars; not Super Mario 64 DS.

Biography

The castle’s Toad attendants provide information while Mario searches for Power Stars. This profile covers the recurring attendant type rather than claiming every Toad is one person.

Appearance

Toads have mushroom caps, small bodies and waistcoats, with colours distinguishing individual appearances.

Personality

They are helpful and worried about the castle’s situation. Their short conversations reward paying attention between painting worlds.

Role in the story

As more floors become accessible, different Toads offer hints and some provide Power Stars. The castle therefore contains meaningful interactions outside its major courses.

Gameplay and encounters

Talk to attendants after progression milestones. A first conversation with one Toad does not establish that all later Toads have nothing new to offer.
