Neptune, Lord of the Deep, better known asKing Neptune is a merman, and the ruler of theAqua Land. He is a reference to thegod of the same name. He is the king of theMermushrooms, despite not actually being a Mermushroom himself. King Neptune generally has a very good disposition, displaying a very calm and pleasant attitude unless he is pushed too far. Despite his peaceful nature, he is not afraid to fight against anyone who stands in his way.

History[edit]

King Neptune's reign over Aqua Land is brought to a halt whenBarra-Koopa and hisBloober minions invade Aqua Land and enslave its entire Mermushroom population. King Neptune tries to reason with Barra-Koopa without threatening him, but Barra-Koopa disregards his advice, and orders for him to be locked up in his own dungeon.

Locked away from the rest of society, King Neptune can do little about his situation until help arrives. Led by a female Mermushroom,Mario,Luigi,Princess Toadstool, andToad break into the dungeon and rescue King Neptune. Now free, King Neptune agrees to help them rid Aqua Land of Barra-Koopa.

King Neptune leads the charge by riding atop aWhale, which he uses to smash a hole in wall leading into his own throne room. Mario's group then enters the throne room on four of King Neptune's seahorses, and uses his swordfish to fight against Barra-Koopa and his Bloober trio. Eventually, theKoopa Pack is defeated, and King Neptune thanks Mario's group for their help in saving Aqua Land.
