Princess Peach (ピーチ姫 Princess Peach) also known as Princess Peach Toadstool, Princess Toadstool, or simply Peach, is the ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom, making her debut in Super Mario Bros. She is the damsel-in-distress and Mario's love interest in most of the Mario games and arguably the tritagonist of the main Mario series.
Appearances[]
Luigi's Mansion[]
In Luigi's Mansion, After Mario went to Luigi's newly won mansion, he tipped Princess Peach off about the new mansion. Worried, Peach sent out several Toads to look for Mario in the mansion after hearing he went missing. The Toads, being small and scared little creatures, failed at this task due to the many dangers of the mansion.
When Luigi came to the mansion and found one of the Toads in the Foyer, he explained why they were in the mansion and begged Luigi, saying Peach will "flip" if she finds out Mario was captured. Despite that mention, the princess herself is nowhere to be seen in the game.
Luigi's Mansion 3[]
Peach makes her first physical appearance in the Luigi's Mansion series in Luigi's Mansion 3, where she is invited to the Last Resort alongside the Mario Bros. and three Toads. However, the invitation turned out be trap crafted by King Boo and Hellen Gravely.
As part of his latest plan to get revenge on Luigi, they trapped the princess and the others in paintings, except Luigi, who escaped. Princess Peach is the last to be freed from her painting, right after Mario is freed and leads Luigi to it, however, King Boo immediately traps her and everyone else in a single painting, again barring Luigi who was saved by Polterpup.
After King Boo is defeated, Luigi frees everyone from the painting, and Peach then contributes in rebuilding the hotel.
Personality[]
Peach is really gentle and kind to those around her. She is shown to be very fond of her friends, not just Mario. When King Boo appears for the final fight, Peach is seen putting her hands out in a way like she's shielding the brothers, this shows her protective nature and her possible desire to return the favor by protecting Mario and Luigi after they risked their lives countless times for her.
Peach loves to be prepared, seeing as she packed so much luggage for the vacation. Despite her delicate appearance and personality, she can also be a very handy young lady, knowing her way around tools and helping with the construction of the new hotel at the end of the third game.
