King Totomesu

"It's about time I'll have my revenge from ya!"

King Totomesu is a boss character in the Prismverse Saga.

History
King Totomesu only appears in Super Mario Land, as the boss of Birabuto Kingdom. His behaviour was mainly similar to SMB1 Bowser's, as all he did was to jump and spew fireballs. He was defeated in the end.

In Prismverse Saga
King Totomesu first appears in SMATSP as a mini-boss. He is fought in Desolate Dunes Throwback. He is fought pretty much similar to his SML fight, only that he jumps and tries to land on the player occassionally.

His later appearances are unknown.

He also appears in the non-canon episode: LQTS as the second main boss, fought in Birabuto Kingdom.

Boss Battle
King Totomesu only has two attacks:


 * Spews out 3-4 fireballs in quick succession.
 * Jumps onto the air and tries to land on the player.

Throwing ice bricks damages the boss, and 10 of them are required to defeat him.

Trivia

 * The music used in his battle is a remix of boss theme from Super Mario Land 3: Wario Land, composed by the artist MODIGS.
 * This music is shared by a majority of the minibosses.

Lore
King Totomesu is one of the 5 rulers in Sarasaland, ruling Birabuto Kingdom, lands of desolate sands and harsh sandstorms. He's the current incarnation of the first king of Birabuto, who reincarnates from animal to animal, depending on the most dominant personality of the previous king. The previous king before Totomesu was a brave warrior who fought to the end, and died in battle; thus explaning his next incarnation reborn as a lion-esque creature called Dao.

As the animal he is based on, Totomesu is a vicious leader, who doesn't tolerate weaknesses in soldiers. Otherwise, he takes his matters with his claws, doing the deed. Despite his viciousness, he always had a soft spot for the people who couldn't defend themselves, willing to protect them even if he means his own life.

One day, a purple alien and his army came to his pyramid, and asked Totomesu to join him. But as the king, he didn't accept the stranger's offers. But before he had the chance to attack, the alien put up a device that brainwashed him, and made him follow the alien's orders. And since that time, he ordered his troops to stop anyone who dared to defy his orders. This charade was put to an end by a hero from another land, after his defeat, and eventually the defeat of the alien, the brainwashing effect was nullified, causing Totomesu to get his senses back.

Since then, King Totomesu made himself stronger physically and magically. He enchanted his headdress so he could be immune to jumps and magic. He sharpened his claws to make his swipes more brutal, and also his flame breathes became hotter and could melt iron. With his newfound powers, he certainly made himself a force of nature in Birabuto Kingdom.

His newfound reputation got the attention of many people, including a mysterious someone. They offered the king to take over a distant desert land with their power, sending him there after accepting their offer. And he waits, until someone dares to challenge his rule.
