Character Information
Character Name: Bowser Jr.
Fandom: Super Mario Bros.

Character History:
Jr. appears first in Super Mario Sunshine, having been told by his father that Princess Peach is his mother and being held prisoner by Mario. Even though he knew it was a lie, he still took up his possibly stolen magic paintbrush and impersonated Mario, framing him for the vandalism and general troublemaking around a small island village. Mario arrived there on a vacation and was arrested and tasked with all of the clean-up. During all of this, Jr. kidnapped Peach while continuing to try to challenge Mario. Mario beat him and his dad, but when Bowser started to admit to his lie Jr. told him that he knew already, but also that he wanted to fight Mario again when he was bigger and stronger.

Character Personality:
First and foremost, Jr. is the spoiled son of Bowser and the heir to the Koopa throne. He's entitled to order around those beneath him and to take whatever he wants and say whatever he feels like. He's not above tantrums when things aren't going his way, but he's not easily discouraged when he can't force things in his favor. Not quite as spoiled as his father was at his age, Jr. is used to actually working for what he wants due to the fact that even as an heir he is a lackey and must follow orders from his dad.

Jr. is still a kid, but he's determined and fairly intelligent, and in some ways can even be considered mature for his age. Even though he is a Koopa and a major antagonist, Jr. has a sense of honor in combat and would prefer to fight his enemy one-on-one even though he does rely on various tools. He learns from his experiences and tries to adjust his strategies when dealing with tough opponents, allowing his skills to develop pretty quickly. He also tends to think things through more than his father does. Taking very much after Bowser, his catchphrase is "Grin and bear it. When that don't work, grin and crush it".

Almost more than anything, Jr. wants to please his dad and loves to spend time with him, but like all of Bowser's minions he doesn't want to fail because he doesn't want to be there when Bowser finds out. He also would actually like it if Peach was his mother, which is a bit of the drive in kidnapping her. He has strong family values and is willing to tolerate anything for them. Some spin-off games have implied that he has a lonely side as well. He also isn't above hanging out with his enemies during parties or whatever rather than go home and sulk in defeat like his father.

The fact that his weapon of choice in his first appearance, and several of the spin-off games, is his magic paintbrush shows that he is also somewhat artistic in nature. This isn't really touched on however. One of his favorite pastimes is causing trouble for people, especially vandalism and stealing cookies. It's stated that he spent a lot of time in the Koopa Castle gardens practicing golf and is fairly good at it, and he is just as athletic as any other Mario character in the sports spin-offs.

Powers and Abilities:
Jr's abilities are still developing, but he seems to have the same potential as his father. He can withdraw into his shell and will be able to spin around in it later. He'll be able to breathe fire later but he hasn't gotten that down. First he'll learn to spit a single large fireball, then a homing one. These will ignite the ground for a few minutes where they hit. He's already very strong, able to drag even Bowser away from a lost fight by himself. He's also somewhat fireproof and can survive being knocked into lava.

Jr's signature weapon is a magical paintbrush that he can use to create portals and monsters, as well as just leave massive amounts of paint-like sludge around. He can also use it as a weapon in close combat. It is also how he created the bandanna that let him turn into Shadow Mario complete with all of the real Mario's natural abilities. He also likes to use bombs and hammers.

Lastly, Jr. seems to be fairly good with using machinery and at least passable at its upkeep. Aside from driving in the Mario Kart games, he uses a smaller version of the Clown Car that he calls the Jr. Clown Car and has been at the controls of airships, submarines, and even a mech of his father. Additionally he seems to be learning about some of the magic that koopas can use, as in a point in a later game Bowser is killed and becomes a Dry Bones and Jr. has the potion to restore him at the final boss fight.

Samples
Network:
Hey. I'm hungry and supposedly there's a place around somewhere to get food. I want someone to take me there so I can see if there's anything good. I could just go look for it, but that'd take way too long and I've got better things to do like take my bath and a nap after I eat. So I don't wanna spend all day wandering around.

I'll even go with the first person who comes to help.

Third Person:
This place was strange. Nothing that the young Koopa prince recognized, no eyes on the clouds in the sky and he hadn’t really seen any hills either. He had been walking around for what felt like forever, keeping out of sight and looking for anyone or anything familiar. He was all by himself without his Jr. Clown Car or magic paintbrush. A strange city with a lot of different kinds of people. Lots of humans like the Mario brothers, but no Koopas seemed to be around. No Toads or Mario brothers either. So where was he? Definitely nowhere in the Mushroom or Bean Kingdoms, or even anywhere on Isle Delfino, that much was obvious. Sneaking around and snooping in buildings wasn't telling him much about the place as a whole, just netted him an easy snack where someone had baked cookies.

After standing in place with his arms crossed and just thinking for a few minutes he decided to just ask the next person he saw where he was and how he'd even gotten here. If he was as far from home as it looked like he was then no one should know who he is and he shouldn't get in trouble. After all, he hadn't done anything bad yet beside nick a few cookies. Even if anyone had seen him do that, that shouldn’t matter enough to keep him from learning what he needed to know.

That decided, the young Koopa looked around and jogged over to the first person he spotted, raising a clawed hand in a wave. "Hey, hold on a second. I wanna ask you some things." He didn't for a minute stop to consider the fact that a big spiny-shelled turtle that was almost five feet tall might not be well-received by the person in question.
