END.smc

END.smc (real name Jennifer Mays) is an adult female living within a cartridge of Super Mario World. She was created by Twitter user Plasma3031 in early March 2022.

Biography
Born in 1971 to Derek and Ann Mays, Jennifer was a bright-eyed, intellectual girl who proved extraordinary in her studies and pursuit of her passions. During high school, she met and fell in love with a boy her age named Peter. She moved in with him after high school with plans to marry him after her time in college was concluded. The two shared a close bond and had many mutual interests, including gaming, which especially encompassed the then-recently released Super Mario World for the Super Nintendo Entertainment system. The two played the game for many hours, enjoying it together.

But around that time, Peter started developing a drinking habit due to rapidly increasing rent for the apartment, among other stresses such as the death of his parents. Jennifer found out, and tried to help him curb the habit. It worked, for a time, until one fateful night. Jennifer took her boyfriend out on a date to a local restaurant, hoping to raise the man's dwindled spirits with a calm night out. Peter ended up becoming intoxicated despite his own insistence to himself and Jennifer that he was only having "one drink." With Peter unable to drive them home, Jennifer took it upon herself to do so, and escorted him back to their truck. During the drive home, Peter suddenly entered a state of drunken euphoria, leaning over and grabbing onto the steering wheel while Jennifer was driving, leading the truck to swerve off of the road and into a tree. Jennifer perished in the crash, but Peter survived, now wracked with immense grief and guilt over the death of the person closest to him. In a lapse of judgment, he attempted a ritual to bring her back to the realm of the living. It worked, but he would never learn of this. When nothing happened immediately, he assumed the worst, and fell in a pit of depression, allowing his already worsening alcoholism to consume him.

When Jennifer awoke, she was within the realm of the Super Mario World cartridge she and Peter had so enjoyed together, now cursed to roam its confines forever.

Abilities
As the game's guardian angel, END.smc is capable of manipulating many aspects of the game, including graphics, enemies, and even entire levels. Her power allows her to manifest level objects, enemies, and other things in the palm of her hand for her to place. She can then use her power to levitate, move, and even throw summoned objects, allowing her some manner of self-defense in an emergency. She can also pause the world around her to work on levels, as well as teleport from area to area with ease. While using her abilities, her right forearm and hand gain a prominent green aura, a white star appearing on her palm.

END.smc is capable of altering her outfit or swapping to her older "human" appearance, though in the case of the latter, she can only do so while the console is powered off.

Weaknesses
Despite her new form and abilities, Jennifer is still an ordinary human woman, and is not a skilled fighter by any means. She also cannot physically leave the confines of the cartridge, except in non-canon scenarios such as crossover events.

Trivia

 * Despite the visual absence of eyes, END.smc has fully intact vision.
 * Due to being revived by supernatural means, END.smc no longer needs to eat or drink to live, though she can still do so.
 * Though she has never met them in canon, Jennifer is afraid of malevolent Super Mario World-based EXEs and Horrorbrews, such as the ghostly Princess Peach from Coronation Day/'the, Luigi from I HATE YOU, and MARIO. Despite his status as a World-based EXE, his harmless nature and close resemblance to the Luigi that she knows means that END.smc would not be afraid of Illusion.
 * While polite and amicable to most EXEs and Horrorbrews she happens to meet (with exceptions listed above), END.smc is especially close to Daymaker, considering him a trusted friend and confidante. A few months after meeting him, END.smc came to nurse a potent romantic crush on the AI, owing to his aid in helping her move on from her ex-boyfriend and Daymaker's kind heart.  She would later admit these feelings, and now helps him to understand what love is so that he can reciprocate those feelings.
 * Despite everything that happened between herself and Peter, she bears no ill will towards her ex, and if they were to meet again would be amicable with him.
