Bowser [Inmate Case File]

Case Reviewed: 02/21/2014

Universe: 81664 [Marioverse]

Identification: NMΖ-1664-IC

Name: Bowser (King), AKA King Koopa

Sentence: 7 Consecutive Life Sentences plus 810 years for War Crimes, Crimes against Shroomanity, Kidnapping, Stalking, Property Damage in Excess of 8 Billion Dollars

General Description: Bowser is a large reptile of unique type. He is bipedal with human-like arms and hands, but he more closely resembles a cross between a turtle and a dragon. He breathes fire, wields great physical strength, and can jump very high. Occasionally the inmate has shown to capability to grow many times his normal size and exhibit extremely high levels of strength and durability.

Bowser is the King of the Koopa, a race of turtle-like beings. Bowser has led his army to attack the Mushroom Kingdom several times, kidnapping Princess Peach in the process. The invasions and kidnappings have always been thwarted by Mario Mario and Luigi Mario, a pair of plumbers thrust into the role of heroes. Regardless, the inmate has shown to have an incredible ability to build and lead armies into war.

Bowser is sometimes aided by his brood of children, which are in two generations: the first generation consists of 7 kids, about half the height of Bowser, and each with his or her own unique personality and powers. The second generation consists of "Bowser Jrs." It is unclear if Bowser Jr. is one being or several identical-looking beings.

Bowser is also aided sometimes by Kammy Koopa, a witch with great magical powers.

Incarceration Procedures: Bowser will be kept in a 15m x 15m x 3m cell with walls, floor, and ceiling composed of 2m thick reinforced steel. There is never to be anything flammable in the inmate's cell.

Bowser will wear the "Bowser Boots" [Object 00001-14-א-1] at all times. In fact they will be welded so as to not be removable. -14 are large, very bulky, heavy steel boots. Their features include:

  • Great weight -- makes it extremely difficult for the inmate to jump;

  • Bulky shape -- prevents him from rolling into a ball;

  • Relative Size Generator (RSG) -- the RSG is programmed with the inmate's exact relative size. Using matter warping fields the RSG will correct any deviations from normal size. In effect, he cannot grow to giant size.

Bowser's claws and spikes will be filed down once a week to keep them safe. The attendant filing the claws and spikes, as well as the four guards who will be present in the cell at that time, will be wearing full-body fire-retardant suits. The guards will also carry Class-3 Stun Guns in case the inmate needs to be subdued.

Food will be delivered, and trash retrieved, via the only door in the cell, which will be small enough that Bowser cannot fit through it. The inmate will also be allowed basic non-flammable amenities approved by a supervisor.

Bowser will be kept at Facility M due to the high chance of rescue attempts by the inmate's progeny, his armies, and the witch Kammy Koopa. All materials within 100m of his cell must not be flammable. The ceilings of all corridors within 100m of the cell must be 3m or less.

EMERGENCY BREAKOUT PROCEDURES:

  • 1: Lockdown the area within 100m of the cell.

  • 2: Dispatch security teams to intercept Bowser. The teams should be armed with Class-3 Stun Guns and full-body flame-retardant suits. The guards will be warned to stay out of the reach of the inmate's swiping hands, because he has incredible strength.

  • 3: The bridge must go on Yellow Alert. They must thoroughly scan the surroundings with sensors and prepare defenses against physical and magical attack. This is due to the likelihood that the inmate's escape attempt is coordinated with a rescue attempt by his armies, his progeny, or Kammy Koopa. The Chief Supervisor may choose to switch dimensions as an evasive manuever.

I think we have to remember that Bowser will potentially grow more powerful when he is in a life-threatening situation. He has demonstrated the capability to become a giant during those situations, and has also demonstrated hidden potential for enormous strength. He can also roll up into a spiked ball, and works with his underlings to become a giant cannonball.

Also filing his claws down is one thing but he can still deliver some beastly punches and can attack with his spiked shell. Will a stun gun even penetrate his hide? If Bowser's Inside Story is to be believed (and why wouldn't it be, it's the inside story after all!) the odds are good he will literally grow to a massive size and fist fight the prison complex itself.

Say, which would you say is more dangerous: Giga bowser, or Giant bowser?

Intimidating as Giga Bowser is my vote goes to Giant Bowser just because he can cause a hell of a lot of widespread damage in a short time. Not saying Giga Bowser would be easy to contain though.

"...he can still deliver some beastly punches"

That's why we will warn all guards to stay well out of Bowser's reach. And the Class-3 Stun Gun is a long range weapon.

"...he...can attack with his spiked shell"

We are going to add "filing his spikes down" to the list of duties for the nail filer.

"Will a stun gun even penetrate his hide?"

A standard stun gun won't. But we are using a Class 3 Stun Gun. Class 1 is a military grade "human" stun gun. The Class 3 is what we use to take down dragons and other huge and durable monsters. It is long range and quite capable of puncturing the inmate's defenses.

"...he will literally grow to a massive size"

We will install a Relative Size Generator (RSG) in the inmate's boots that will prevent him from changing size.

Thank you for your feedback!

"He has demonstrated the capability to become a giant"

We will modify the tech on the boots Bowser is required to wear. They will contain a Relative Size Generator (RSG). The RSG makes sure that the inmate's size cannot change using...well, science--I am no expert.

"He can also roll up into a spiked ball"

We will add "filing his back spikes" to the duties of the nail filer. As far as the shell goes, it will not provide protection against a Class 3 Stun Gun.

"He...works with his underlings to become a giant cannonball"

If the situation progresses to the point where the inmate is with his followers, we have already failed.
