Koopa Troopa (Super Mario Bros)

Human: Koopa Troopas are a turtle-like species that display remarkable adaptability by donning removable shells in an assortment of colors, with red and green being the most widespread; green Koopa Troopas move forward undeterred by obstacles or chasms, while red ones tend to navigate platforms without faltering. As common adversaries within the Mario franchise, Koopa Troopas are often depicted as foot soldiers under Bowser's direct command, forming a formidable battalion known as the Koopa Troop. However, this dynamic has evolved since Super Mario 64, where many Koopa Troopas have defected from their allegiance to Bowser, and some have even taken on roles as allies to Mario in his quests, further solidifying their presence as playable characters in spin-off titles like Super Mario Kart.
