Lady Lima M&LSS sprite

Lady Lima (マメばあ Mame-bā?), is a Beanish and the ambassador of the Beanbean Kingdom. The character makes her debut in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and went on to appear in its Nintendo 3DS remake Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions.

Lima was truly seen at the Beanbean Castle Sewers when she approached Mario and Luigi, who were seemingly ordered by her to fix the plumbing, although this was revealed to be a catfishing stunt. Lady Lima's perplexity when she is told of this hinted that somebody else trapped them to distract them by fixing the sewer system. Lady Lima seemed like to appear at the prologue, despite Cackletta morphing into her form in order to steal Peach's voice.

Profile[]

Physical description[]

Lady Lima is a short Beanish with a long nose. She wears a yellow coat that covers her head. She was originally going to have beady eyes like most Beanish folks, but this was changed into circular white eyes with pupils.

Personality[]

Lady Lima is a diligent ambassador. When there is an unpleasant case, she worries nearly losing hope. She cheers up when someone is willing to help like Mario and Luigi.

Etymology[]

Lima was also called a lima bean in the eighteenth century. Lima may be a pun of Lina. Lina in Arabic refers to a small palm tree. Its name also means tender or tenderness.

In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga[]

Ghostt Spoiler warning : Don't you even dare read the spoiler! Because if you do… Hoo hoo hoo hoo hoooooo… A horrible fate awaits you.

Lady Lima knew how to awaken the Beanstar, but when she tried to stop Cackletta, she was beaten and locked in the sewers. Cackletta then took Lima's form to trap Mario and Luigi within the Beanbean Castle Sewers so she can stop them from interfering in her succession of power scheme. Afterwards, Lady Lima was pleased with their job and was puzzled about the incident when she was saved. Toward the ending, it is discovered that Lady Lima is an old friend of Toadsworth.

Trivia[]

  • Lima is one of the few Beanish folks to not have beady eyes; Cackletta (who has menacing pink eyes) and Fawful (who has cyan swirly eyes) also exemplify this nonstandard eye design.
