Geno (real name: ♡♪!? in the original or ♡♪！？ in the remake) is a warrior from the Star Road and one of Mario's partners in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars and its remake. He is sent by "a higher authority" to restore peace to Mario's world by inhabiting a wooden doll. During the events of Super Mario RPG, he teams up with Mario's team, which consists of Mario, Mallow, Princess Peach, and Bowser, and helps them out on their quest to defeat Smithy. In battle, he has high attack, but lower defense. Geno was designed by Yuka Miyamoto and Hideo Minaba, with Kazuyuki Kurashima having provided concept work. Prior to the release of Super Mario RPG, Nintendo Power wrote that Geno was described by Square as "Pinocchio".
