Name: Clawdia Koopa
Debut: Super Mario Bros.
If you’ve ever tried to take a closer look at the Mario series lore, you’ll realize one thing… it is not very consistent! Mario games are filled with little discrepancies, and of course, plenty of obscure and forgotten characters were practically retconned by the series! And of these, who has suffered a worse fate than Clawdia Koopa?
If you were a gaming fan during the 80s and 90s, you will surely remember Clawdia Koopa, the beloved and female wife of the fearsome King Koopa! She may not have shown up much, but her impact on the Mario world was felt everywhere!
Tumblr media
Who could forget making it all the way to the end of the NES game, squaring off against the frightening Bowser himself… only to find out, he was even more scared of his wife than you were of him! As the king of the Koopas cowers before his nagging old ball & chain, Mario, who is in no committed relationship, is able to jump over their heads and grab the ax, sending them both plummeting into lava!
Though their relationship may have had a rocky start, it seems the two were still able to settle down and start a family. Just take a look at this letter Bowser sends you in Super Mario Bros. 3!
Tumblr media
Yup, this game introduced the Koopalings, and as Nintendo made very clear, Clawdia was their mother! Not only did the game manual reiterate this fact, it also included some pretty detailed pictures of Clawdia in labor, giving birth to each of the seven! They’re a bit too graphic to reproduce here, but it’s awesome they went that far to flesh out the worldbuilding!
So, if Bowser was married, why did he keep kidnapping Princess Peach? Maybe their marriage wasn’t actually going that great? You see, if you were to 100% Super Mario World twice over, you would actually get to see a secret message written by Bowser:
Tumblr media
It’s pretty heavy stuff, and Nintendo hid this message for only the most dedicated of Mario fans! And sure enough, things would only go downhill from here… In Hotel Mario, Bowser would build seven Koopa Hotels just to stay away from his wife, and Clawdia hasn’t been seen in any games since… All the fans who never got this message were pretty confused, wondering where Clawdia Koopa had gone… and they were even more confused with the release of Super Mario Sunshine!
Tumblr media
This game introduced Bowser Jr., and he was supposed to be Bowser’s new child! Not only were the Koopalings not mentioned at all, but Clawdia was nowhere to be found, either! Instead, Bowser Jr. kept referring to Peach as his ‘mama’, but she turns out to not be his mother either! What’s going on? If Clawdia and Bowser really did get divorced, then where did Bowser Jr. come from?
Things got even worse when Shigeru Miyamoto was interviewed in 2012, saying “Our current story is that the seven Koopalings are not Bowser's children. Bowser's only child is Bowser Jr., and we do not know who the mother is.” When asked about Clawdia Koopa, Miyamoto ended the interview abruptly. So what’s going on here? Is there some sort of conspiracy to cover up Clawdia Koopa? Who would benefit from this, and why?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Well, it turns out the real culprit may have been right in front of us all along! Bowser actually DID remarry, and the mother of Bowser Jr. is none other than Miyamoto himself! After becoming Bowser’s wife, Miyamoto became jealous of Bowser’s ex-wife, suspecting he still had feelings for her. So Miyamoto went and changed the official story, acting like the Koopalings were never Bowser’s kids to begin with! It was quite a petty move on his part, but since Mario canon is in his hands, there was nothing we could do to stop him…
Clawdia may be gone, but I won’t let this revisionist view of history take place! Most Mario fans today have never even heard of Clawdia Koopa, and that’s sad… But I’m not afraid to say her name! This International Women’s Day, I will be changing my full legal name to Clawdia Koopa in her memory, and I hope anyone who stands with me will do the same! After all, if we let Miyamoto get away with this, who knows what he will do next? He might even try to sully the name of Morton Koopa Sr.!

Disclaimer: The brown haired koopa on the bottom right wasn't drawn by me. It's an interpretation of Claudia koopa, who is Bowser Junior's confirmed mother in mario Fandom and, in my au, is an obsessed Yandere for Bowser, and it was the first picture I found when making this

sketch /SMB-AU - Queen Clawdia Koopa
Eng: Queen Clawdia Koopa👑 Queen of Darkland and the biological mother of Bowser Jr.
The Koopalings met Bowser Jr's mother when they were all adopted by Kamek under the order of Queen Clawdia of Darkland.
(Lemmy and Iggy had their natural hair color before they dyed.)
But the reason was because Clara Von Koopa was a friend of the queen and she found out about her death and did not want the Koopalings to be left alone.
Passing 3 years later when Junior was born, Clawdia fell from a serious illness passing away at 5 months.
______________________________________

Los Koopalings conocieron a la madre de Bowser Jr cuando eran todos fueron adoptados por Kamek bajo orden de Reina Clawdia de Darkland
(Lemmy e Iggy tenían su color de cabello natural antes de teñirse.)
Pero la razón fue porque Clara Von Koopa era amiga de la reina y ella se enteró de su muerte no quiso que los Koopalings se quedarán solos.
Al pasar 3 años después cuando nació Junior, Clawdia cayó de una enfermedad grave que falleció a los 5 meses.

Yo! I remember seeing you in Deviantart before thanks to someone named Natsuko! Your Koopa OC reminded me so much of mine! Name's Olivia and she is Bowser's and my oc's mom!
Just nice to see people like Koopas hehe :)
Hello,
WOAH Holy moly! Oh man, I didn't think anyone would even remember my ocs from DeviantART days especially since I've stored most of my art there so for you to find me and my ocs, that's really surreal! I am very surprised!
But oh my goodness!!! Look at that! It's Clawdia! AHHH I love this so much omg the body type is perfect and the hair and face shape WAAAA This is so pretty! I love her expression she's darling! Thank you so much omg
Tumblr media
But yes, @natsuko-the-mun is very nice. She also runs a Royal Koopa blog here that includes her ocs so if you enjoy Koopas, I highly recommend checking out her work and characters.
It would be nice to see your ocs also, there's a lot of koopa fans on here that I'm sure would love to see what you do. Enjoy your stay

Yesterday I watched The Super Mario Bros Movie and it was a real blast (both the Animation and even the Storyline), I also loved on how the Movie brought in the more aspects to the Original Franchise. So far, As to someone who watches a Parody Mario Webseries that is filled with Memes, I've decided to create my very own interpertation of a Rumoured Character from a Nintendo Magazine, Clawdia Koopa. For those who don't know about the Clawdia Koopa rumor, there was a character mentioned somewhere in the Nintendo comics which sparked many fans to create a Fan Theory for an Unofficial Character that the Main Antagonist (Bowser) supossedly had a wife who's also supposed to be Junior's Mother but the Writers confirmied that she was actually a Unofficial Nintendo Character. However, that Old Rumour didn't stop fans from coming since many Mario fans attempted to their own personal interpertations of the Bowser Wife theory. So here is my very own late submission to that theory, that is my very own version of Clawdia Koopa, the Late Wife of Bowser Sr. and even the Biological Mother of Bowser Jr. Long before that the Tyrant Koopa King fell in love with the Mushroom Princess, Bowser had someone else before capturing the Beautiful Gentle Princess. Of course, this Koopa Queen was not ordinary nor was she all Girly-Girl like Other Girls, she was someone special to the Koopa King, Clawdia (The Rebel Koopa Woman who always had her own ways). Clawdia was the Daughter of a Late Koopa Baron and Koopa Baroness but since she was kidnapped at a younger age, she never really saw her Parents ever again as she was captured but was then took in by some Bandits who were Robbers, although it didn't seem pleasent at first, Clawdia grew up in her own Foster Family as she was often a Mischevious Cunning Trickster who would often rob People blind just for their Money (makes you think and wonder as to why Jr is mischevious). But that all changed until One Day, Clawdia was caught red-handed by the Koopa Troopas when the Robbers were trying to steal the Koopa King's Treasures the Robbers were senteced to death but Clawdia on the other hand managed to escape for she had to spent the Night alone in the Woods until when she was taken care of in a cottage by a Mushroom Eldery Couple who took her in for shelter. After a few weeks living in a small cottage, the Koopa Troopas found the Last Bandit as they brought her in to the Koopa King since the Koopa General knew that there was one robber left that managed to escape, but this Female Koopa struck Bowser through a personal interest as he managed to keep the Koopa Lady in since Clawdia already charmed Bowser by her own looks. At first, Clawdia didn't seem to like Bowser (not because of how that he was the Ruthless King) but because on how he send her old crew a punishment. However, where's Clawdia saw that there was more to Bowser since their relationship began to flow after it started out being rocky, she started to grew fond of him ever since Bowser thought that maybe he could have Clawdia for a Wife since the Koopa Kingdom had not been having a Queen for a very long time as Bowser earned her own kindness and trust, the Koopa King began to fall in love with her. Because of the Evil Wonders that they did together and how Clawdia even manage to help Bowser out on his own ways into getting on what he wanted like treasures and more power. After all, Clawdia was a smart mischevious genius for she would often trick and blind the good people for her one true love. Bowser and Clawdia were married for the once Robber Koopa was no longer a bandit but become more of that, a Koopa Queen. Soon, after One Year of Marriage, Clawdia became pregnant with her Husband's Child for Bowser was exicited to have an Heir to the Koopa Throne on his own as when Bowser Jr. came to the World, the Couple were happy for they were expecting to have a bright future of their own. Unfortunately however, a Group of Assistants wanted to steal Bowser's treasure but the Other Koopas were assistanted and posioned as the Entire Koopa Army attacked them but one of the Assisants managed to assisanted the Queen with Posion Smoke. Lucikly, Junior on the other hand managed to survive since Clawdia tossed her Child towards Kamek for the Rest of the Koopas escaped the Assisants and the Fire that they caused in the Old Koopa Kingdom as it was instantly destoryed and burned down. Bowser was even heartbroken for the First Woman he loved was now gone for the Koopa King and his Troops headed out somewhere near away the Mushroom Lands to go look for a New Koopa Kingdom. To avenge the Tragic Death of a First Wife, Bowser decided that for now on, he would only have to take care of their one and only child and even keep the Koopa Kingdom ongoing with a New Land for the Koopas.

dear god...
Tumblr media
So... I made the family tree for my Koopa head cannon...
(This is supposed to be more of their future with the gen after the Koopalings/Bowser Jr's) (I will probably remake it....)
(Crowns mean they are King/Queen or they are next in line for throne) (Hearts mean they are in a relationship) (heart with ring means they are married) (broken heart means not longer in a relationship)
Morton Koopa Sr. relationship status is confusing... very confusing... so 1st he married Lapis, then got a divorce, then got married to Lemmy, Roy, Iggy, Wendy, and Morton Jr's mom (their mom then died), then he got back with Lapis and had Larry and then Morton Sr. died and Lapis eventually left...
I could go in more depth, but I won't.
R.I.P. Blister, Gracelin, Morton sr., and who ever the rest of the other Koopalings's mom is...

if clawdia died giving birth to lemmy how did Alphonso die?
And do koopas not hatch from eggs?
Roy: "Oh, we don't know how. His death is a complete mystery! It's scary to think about, actually... One of us went outside to play, and he was just laying there... Face down in the grass... Dead... With no explanation."
(From an old post) There's an even older post that goes more in depth, but I've been looking forever, and I can't find it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Also... I honestly don't know... Like, I feel like koopas SHOULD be born in eggs. I think it's canon in games, and seems weird for that to not be true. But also... The egg serves no narrative purpose(?) I simply think that trying to figure out how the whole egg thing would work is just too much for me to deal with. I don't want to waste time to come up with EGG LORE. So... Until I come up with something, just believe in whatever you want to believe. Egg or no egg.)

SMB: Queen Clawdia Koopa (my AU)
Clawdia Koopa is the queen of the Koopa Kingdom. In my AU, she is the first wife of Bowser who was the king of the Koopa Kingdom ever since they got married. When Bowser and Clawdia are both expecting a heir to the throne, they noticed the 7 children abandoned without their parents— who seem likely to have passed away— and they decided to adopt them. Soon after the Koopalings became part of their family, Clawdia gave birth to a heir, and it was a son. Bowser and Clawdia are both blessed to have a son, and they named him Bowser Jr., aka Junior for short. Bowser and Clawdia started parenting Junior and the Koopalings throughout their lives, until an unfortunate incident occurred one week later. One week went by as Clawdia got sick due to an unknown illness, and Bowser’s servants alongside his father figure assistant— Kamek— are doing everything they can to cure his wife’s illness. Moments went by as they delivered the news to their king, but it was really bad for them to tell, shattering his heart; Clawdia had died of an illness that was severe to cure her from. Bowser and his son alongside the Koopalings are grieving by the loss of the Koopa queen. The army members felt the same way, and comforted their king and his children at the funeral of his wife. Bowser felt very lonely than ever since he lost his parents at a younger age, and now his beloved wife— Queen Clawdia Koopa— who will be in their hearts and never be forgotten by the Koopa Kingdom. But this left Bowser starting to move on and start raising Junior and his adopted Koopalings on his own.

plots please 👀
I've been reading your headcanons. You put a fun spin on things! I'd love to actually delve into some stuff sometime! So, came up with these plots with your storyline verse in mind.
Plots:
The former King Koopa was right; the closest he had ever gotten to love and family existed only to ruin their kingdom. Ludwig has played his part well, but King Koopa is not ignorant to deceit. He has played the backstabbed; he has played the backstabber. Though the fruit of his loins may not realize it, their tells are quite similar-- and finally, after some time observing Ludwig, he has caught on to his intention to betray him. He becomes a father made furious! This runt wouldn't be ALIVE had a happy little accident not occurred. An accident Bowser secretly took pride in, that he wanted to see flourish, that he was happy had grown up strong. Despite Ludwig's ignorance to his origin, he has stabbed his poor Dad in the heart. A man of direct immediate action, driven by an emotional rage, Bowser chose to confront this issue head-on. Ludwig is summoned to the throne room. There is murder in his father's eyes. Soldiers once loyal to Ludwig turn on the boy in an instant. He has not been called to exchanged pleasantries. Ludwig and his schemes would be put to bed today, permanently if that is what must be done.
Less angst, more family: Bowser was incredibly excited to have Ludwig join his ranks! He sees his old love through the boy's. His instincts are entirely fatherly. Yet, they do not have a bond to foster any true relationship. The king snores through any and all of Ludwig's practiced symphonies. Art is a topic wasted between them. Likewise, foods were better shared with Junior. Heck, even Roy knew his palate better. His son failed to share his interest in aggressive conquests. He seeks any avenue to try to understand his son, but he cannot see himself in him... Until, the prelude to Odyssey. Inspired through his travels, the King desired to base his latest castle on a foreign land. It would be a cultural, artistic display... and provide many new jobs for the less fortunate. But he lacked the craftsmanship, the attention to detail, to make this happen alone. Perhaps the construction of this new castle will be an opportunity to bond over a topic they may both enjoy: creation, art, and exploration.
The reverse of these could be fun as well, so I'll make them the third. Ludwig could successfully outwit Bowser and take over the Kingdom. It is not something he would take lightly though. It would be a brutal contest, as his father would forever be coming for him until someone was put down. Or, perhaps a Ludwig suddenly finding out who his father is could be trying to make the appeal to a Bowser simply not willing to accept him as his child. Bowser Jr. exists now after all, and acknowledging Ludwig changes the order of rule. His family would be rolling in their grave to see Clawdia's offspring rise to power!

★ No 'Happily Ever After' Ending ★
Clawdia has always been proud of her own nature. She genuinely cares for any and everyone's wellbeing, no matter who they may be, and sees cruelty as an unnecessary blight upon the world. Unfortunately, in a country like the Darkland Kingdom where such sentimentality was seen as foolish and damaging to its image of a harsh place where only the strong can survive, she was in general not regarded fondly by her fellow koopas.
Especially by those a part of the royal family. Clawdia's relationship with (the then) Prince Bowser was widely known and widely criticized. Bowser's father was the most vocal, believing she would not only make for an embarrassing queen, she would also weaken his son with her softness and make him unfit to rule as a vicious king after his time was up. For this reason, during preparation for his retirement that was swiftly approaching, his father looked towards other members of the family for the next heir.
Bowser was faced with an ultimatum. Stay with Clawdia and be denied the throne, or put an end to their relationship and prove to his father that he was committed to being a proper king.
…He chose the latter. He was applauded, and public opinion of both Bowser and the royals shot up.
Clawdia was left heartbroken, and believed that Bowser had never truly loved her at all. Or, he simply loved being king more. She was further distraught some weeks later, when she discovered that she was pregnant.
She managed to inform Bowser for the sake of it, through sending an inconspicuous letter. In it, she made it clear that she had absolutely no expectations of him, and she would not tell their child of his relation to them. Outside of the two of them, no one would know. It would be better this way, she thought. She and their child would not be bothered, and Bowser would enter kinghood with a "clean" slate. However, she would be lying if she said guilt didn't have any influence. If she wasn't the way she was, maybe Bowser would have stayed. Could have stayed.
Maybe Ludwig could have had a father.
