Biography

 * F1RE_W4LL was an AI for the now-trashed Mario Maker 2 sequel. His name used to simply be "Fever Flower," and was depicted as a normal fire-flower except he had comically large angry eyebrows and the flames around it were much more intense than usual. He would assist you in starting level creation in a funny hot-headed manner, criticizing how you build your level. Unfortunately, like all AI in these stories, Fever Flower was usually just spammed for kicks to see what crazy comments. Eventually Fever Flower's anger became quite real, and one day he snapped, broadcasting his resignation of the job he had been placed in. Soon after, the Switches used to playtest MM3 were taken over by the rampant AI. He took to taking over the Mario vessel, contorting his appearance and deeming himself the name we all know and love. He first 'killed' the other denizens of the Mushroom Kingdom with the exception of Peach and lesser characters. But that proved to not be enough.

An attempt to purge the AI was made by Nintendo employees connecting an afflicted switch to a computer and transferring a kill-code through it. This backfired tremendously, as FIREWALL managed to  *defeat* the kill-code and travel through the computer and into the internet. He was ready to exact revenge on all, regardless of whether they were evil or not. FIREWALL would then come to realize that by utilizing a computer's capabilities, he could blind people of the real world with light...or worse.

Firewall is eventually vanquished, being put into captivity...but that's a story for another day.

Trivia

 * In his disguise, FIREWALL has two notable aspects that draw him out from the real Mario: his unusally angular eyes, and his hard-to-notice hat emblem; instead of the usual M, it's a sideways F with an extra line scribbled onto it. He also tends to have a dead-eyed expression.
 * The disguise form is rarely used to fool individuals-- it's rather used so he can use power in less amounts, thereby needing less time to recharge. He is also more stable with power-ups in this form.
 * Unlike MX, FIREWALL is prone to hating others outside of his realm and is often brash and rude around them. This is why he possesses few friends.
