Queen Ruby, better known as simply Ruby, is the ruler of the Underworld and serves as a major character in Super Mario and the Underworld Trials. In the game, she helps Mario and co. escape the Underworld by telling them that the Mystic Stones must be collected by complete the Underworld Trials in order to escape.

Appearance[]

Ruby resembles a tall, middle-age woman with light-gray skin. She has red hair and, like the other Underworlders, is crystalized. She also has pale blue eyes and a mouth.

Ruby's attire consists of a pale red dress with blue and white accents, and several blue and pink jewels around the torso. This dress is cut off on her left side, revealing that under this dress she wears a dark-red leotard and yellow high heels. She also wears blue diamond-shaped earrings and wears a yellow crown with a blue gem in its center. She also wields a yellow trident and wears white arm-length gloves.

In Super Mario Kart: Switch Circuit, when using a bike or ATV body, Ruby will instead wear a dark red biker suit comparable to that of Peach or Daisy. Unlike the other bike outfits, which are white with different-colored outlines, Ruby's is reverse; dark red with white outlines.

Personality[]

Though the ruler of the Underworld, Ruby is kind and benevolent, preferring to do what will benefit everyone rather than do what will benefit just herself. She also often puts others before herself, willing to sacrifice herself for someone she loves. Ruby is also generous and caring, allowing Mario and friends to stay at her home while they are in the Underworld. She is also quite wise, having a great knowledge of the Underworld.

Another side of Ruby is her motherly personality, mostly seen when with her daughter Pearl. She is always willing to help her daughter with anything, as well as play with her when she's happy or make her feel better when she's sad.

Abilities[]

Ruby's abilities are channeled through her trident. Using it, she can perform a wide variety of magic abilities, ranging from simple tactics like telekinesis to creating portals. She has also been shown to use offensive tactics, such as materializing crystals and using them against her opponent, but only uses them when the situation calls for it.

Among her other abilities are having above-average cooking abilities. In particular, Pearl describes Ruby's strawberry shortcake as "the best she ever tasted".

Super Mario and the Underworld Trials[]

Ruby makes her fist appearance in Super Mario and the Underworld Trials. When Mario and co. fall into a pit leading to the Underworld, she is the one to explain that in order to go back to the Mushroom Kingdom, the Mystic Stones must be collected from the Underworld Trials. During their stay, Ruby lets Mario and friends stay in Pearl's room, much to her daughter's delight. Throughout the game, she gives advice to Mario and, along with Pearl, cheers him on.

At the end of the game, Ruby's younger, evil sister Obsidia makes her presence, and uses the portal to the Mushroom Kingdom, taking Pearl with her. Ruby then reveals that she and Obsidia used to rule the Underworld together, but once she saw her plans of universal domination she trapped her in a crystal. She uses her powers to create a temporary portal to the Mushroom Kingdom, allowing Mario and the others to stop Obsidia and rescue Pearl. After the final battle, it is revealed that Pearl is actually Obsidia's child; Ruby found her as an infant after her sister's imprisonment, and decided to raise her as her own. Pearl says through tears that she wants Ruby to be her real mother. Later, she takes a group photo with the rest of the characters and the game ends.
