“I'm hoping for a special mushroom, but even if it isn't, at least I'll get a meal out of it.”

—Mushroom Boy,Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars

TheMushroom Boy is a character inSuper Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars andthe remake. He is aMushroom person who lives inSeaside Town. The Mushroom Boy's mushroom cap has the same striped design as the natives ofRose Town. His shop is known as the Mushroom Shop,^[1] which is a specialty store. Instead of selling items, weapons, etc., the Mushroom Boy trades special items for rareMushrooms. These Mushrooms are found randomly among Mushrooms that can be bought or found. Because they all look the same, adventurers have to return any Mushrooms they pick to the Mushroom Boy, who then uses his refined palate to determine whether a Mushroom is rare or not. Rare mushrooms are rewarded with items, while regular Mushrooms are not compensated. Items that can be gained in exchange for Mushrooms includeRock Candy,Maple Syrup, andFlower Tabs.

The Mushroom Boy, along with the other residents of Seaside Town, are held hostage by theSmithy Gang duringSpeardovich's occupation of the city. The residents of the village are eventually saved by Mario and his party.
