The Snake was once a plumber of great renown, although no one ever saw him do any actual plumbing. He tended to spend most days wandering around eating mushrooms and breaking bricks with his head. Still, his reputation as the best plumber of his time remained unscathed.

Dissatisfied with a life of staring at blocked-up toilets, he went to the far east to study martial arts under a mysterious 6-armed guru. He came back with a red ninja suit in place of his red overalls, well-schooled in the art of sneaky fighting.

The Snake's alignment seems to shift from battle to battle. His ethical plumber ideals and ninja training fight for dominance, making him a shifty foe indeed. When he's not fighting, you can usually find him at the nearest bar betting people he can throw fireballs if he just eats the centerpiece on one of the tables.
