Goombas are mushroom-like creatures that appear in the Mario universe. They used to live in peace with the Toad species until Bowser captured them and turned them against the Mushroom Kingdom. They are the easiest Mario enemies to destroy, and can usually be killed with any attack, including a stomp to the head. They are also one of the most common enemies in the Super Mario series.
Description[]
Their heads are brown and they have two sharp teeth sticking up from their mouth. Most are somewhat unintelligent and do not clearly speak, mumbling instead. There are Goombas that speak such as Goomboss, Goombario, and Goombella. Most Goombas are enemies, but some have allied with Mario. There are many Goomba sub-species, such as the winged Paragoomba and the blue, cavern-dwelling Gloomba.
Powers and Abilities[]
Goombas tend to be more noted due to their lack of any kind of ability to harm Mario unless they touch him and can easily be stopped through a stomp to the head. In later titles, Goombas have the notable ability to stack on top of each other, making it hard for Mario to get on top of them. They also have much more traction on ice than Mario would.
