=== Bowser ===

 

[[Super Mario Bros.|Bowser Koopa, Senior]] is the patriarch of the Koopa family and head of [[Fiction 500|Koopa Suites]], a hotel business he inherited from his estranged father Rufus. With his [[Posthumous Character|late]] wife [[Super Mario Bros.|Peach]], Bowser had eight children -- Ludwig, Lemmy, Roy, Iggy, Wendy, Morton, Larry and his [[Identical Son|spitting image]] Bowser Jr. But Peach died when Bowser Jr. was still little, and Bowser has had to do his best to raise the Koopalings as a single father while still running a business that has since grown into an international conglomerate. He's a good businessman, and tries to look after his children's needs and happiness, but [[When You Coming Home, Dad?|he's not usually at home with them]] as often as he'd like to be.

* [[Posthumous Character]]

 

=== Ludwig ===

 

Ludwig von Koopa is the eldest child and son of [[Super Mario Bros.|Bowser Koopa]]. He helps his father run [[Fiction 500|Koopa Suites]]. He loves Bowser as his father, and Peach as his mother, but is [[Black Sheep|extremely distant]] from all of his younger siblings. When Ludwig does acknowledge them, it is usually with [[Smug Snake|great coldness]] sprinkled with [[Creepy Monotone|monotone]] disdain and abusive remarks. The rest of the time, Ludwig [[Workaholic|buries himself in work]], never making room in his schedule for the family unless Bowser wants him to. And being the Koopaling furthest apart in age from Junior, the two brothers' relationship is practically nonexistent. Not that that makes Junior all that different from the way Ludwig treats the rest of his siblings...

* [[The Snark Knight]]

 

=== Roy ===

 

Roy Kelton Koopa is the third child and son of [[Super Mario Bros.|Bowser Koopa]], and one of Junior's six older brothers. For most of their shared life as siblings, Junior has been his favorite brother, and Roy is regularly involved in his life as the two have aged into adulthood.

* [[Occidental Otaku]]: Iggy has an unhealthy personal obsession with Japanese culture that goes well beyond mere immersion and study. Roy nicknames him "[http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/weeaboo wee-Iggy-a-boo]".

 

=== Wendy ===

 

Wendy Orlean Koopa is the fifth child and only daughter of [[Super Mario Bros.|Bowser Koopa]], and as such is Junior's only sister. An accomplished [[The Fashionista|fashion expert]] and interior designer in her own right, Wendy also takes charge of the upkeep of Koopa Manor. And in the absence of their deceased mother Peach, Wendy has tried her best to fill in as motherly influence to her brothers. Along with Roy, Wendy is the Koopaling that Junior sees most on an everyday basis.

* [[Tsundere]]: Wendy will usually be perfectly nice and congenial until you sass her. Then she'll [[Sassy Black Woman|sass you right back]].
