History.

Rosalina was a happy and cheerful little girl, who lived next to a hill and lived with her parents and her older brother. One day, her mother disappeared without a trace, which made the girl feel very sad. Later, a spaceship would arrive and crash right next to her house. The girl runs out to see what it was, and when she arrived, she noticed that in said ship there was a young Flash who was also looking for his mother. Rosalina feels empathy for him and helps him rebuild the ship and proceed to help him find his mother in space. After equipping enough supplies for a long journey, they both board the ship and travel through space together, observing asteroids, comets, and pieces of stars. One day, Rosalina dreams about her mother, which makes her very sad, and she proceeds to continue traveling. Rosalina decides to build a house with her partner Flash on one of the comets where they landed, to later turn it into a planetarium. Rosalina and Sparkle begin to become great friends, as more Sparkles join them, becoming so fond of Rosalina that they even consider her a mother. One day, however, Rosalina remembers her original planet, and that according to her own vision, her mother was always there, and seeing it in the distance of space, she bursts into tears because she misses her planet and her mother even more, whom she knows she would never see again. At that moment, the Sparks console her, saying that she is an excellent mother, while the young Spark with whom she began the journey tells Rosalina that her mother has not left and that she is now a part of her, which encourages her even more. The young Spark turns into a beautiful and proud comet, with which every hundred years he would visit with Rosalina, her old home, the Earth. Ultimately, Rosalina decides to stay on the new planet with the sparkles, as she now considers them her new family.

Details.

• Rosalina is approximately 2.21 meters tall, although her weight is unknown, it could be said that she is very light, since in Smash Bros Ultimate she can move from one side to the other like a leaf. • She is a very mature and really powerful goddess. • Despite her youthful appearance, Rosalina is one of the oldest characters in the Mario franchise and possibly also the oldest human character, being at least a hundred years old and possibly millions, as she claims to visit Earth once every hundred years. • Like the Lumas, Rosalina can levitate in the air and fly. • When Mario wakes up in the Mushroom Kingdom after the Lumas threw themselves into the black hole that created Bowser's collapsed galaxy, Rosalina speaks to Mario via telepathy and tells him that all life carries the essence of the stars, even within itself. • Rosalina has demonstrated the ability to create holograms of herself when she meets Mario after he defeats Bowser. • She is known as; "The Lady of the Shooting Stars." And by the young Sparkles as "Mom." • She is one of the most powerful characters in the entire franchise, her occupation is to protect the cosmos, she is classified as the Princess of the Comet Observatory. • She used to live on earth. • Although her parents' names or even her appearance are unknown, Rosalina describes to Mario what she is like, whose characteristics are almost the same as Peach's. • Rosalina doesn't like being alone, nor wars. • Rosalina can manipulate gravity at will, her knowledge is universal. • Hero Type: Cosmic Princess.

Curiosities.

• In November 2017, it celebrated its tenth anniversary. • Rosalina is often depicted as right-handed in artwork. • On many occasions, it has been thought that Rosalina possibly keeps a secret in her other eye, since she always tends to keep it covered with her hair, which led to theorizing strange things such as a deformed eye. Finally, it was proven that there really is nothing wrong with her, and she usually looks at others out of the corner of her eye. • Rosalina is considered the most mature princess in the Mario franchise, besides Paulina. • His sneakers are silver in color. • In one of the stories she tells the Sparkles about her life, she says that her father simply disappeared one day along with her brother, and her mother died at a very young age. • According to the story Rosalina tells, she used to live in the Mushroom Kingdom. • Despite the years, Rosalina does not seem to age, since time in space is relative. • In her story it is said that she grew up in a castle very similar to Princess Peach, possibly being a related relative or ancestor. • Rosalina is the most powerful character in the Mario saga. • One theory states that Rosalina is the canonical daughter of Luigi and Peach, hailing from another galaxy, as in one of her narratives, she recounts that she used to rest on the hill under a tree on her father's lap, stroking his proud mustache. He can also be seen wearing a green cap in one of his drawings. • Rosalina/Estela has different names depending on these languages: Rosetta (Japan), Rosalina (America), Harmonie (France), Rosalinda (Italy), Rozalina (Russia), Lujojieta (China), Estela (Latin America and Europe) and the rest of the world is known as Rosalina. • Its name in Japanese (Rosetta) refers to an orbit that is shaped like a Rosetta, as its name indicates.

Curiosities. (two)

• If in Super Smash Bros Brawl or DS, we pause and move the camera, we can see under Rosalina's skirt, who visually seems to see space itself, covering the lower part of her body. This is possibly a joke reference, as in other sports-related games in the franchise, she can be seen wearing tight clothing and a ponytail, and while it would make sense, it would be weird to think that Rosalina has some of the space in her crotch, despite being the mother of the Sparkles. • Rosalina is able to take the same powers as Mario and Luigi, such as the fire flower, and the cat suit. • Super Mario 3D World; It is possible to have her as a playable character, she is slower than the rest, but she has a great jump and an incredible ability to leap in the air. • Unlike Daisy, she never shows her teeth at any time. • If you complete the 120 stars and defeat Bowser again in Super Mario Galaxy 2, it is possible to unlock a secret ending, where you can see Rosalina again telling a story to the Sparkles, one of them appears with Mario or Luigi's cap, implying that it is the only memory left about them, since once Rosalina leaves the place, she can only return after 100 years, which implies that once she returns, they will all be dead. This implies that the events happened a long time ago, and that only their caps remain as memories, and it is possible that they are already dead by the time Rosalina tells the Sparkles about her adventure and the plumbers. • A curious detail is that the cat version's outfit is black, not light blue. This contrasts with the light blue that can be seen in her outfits like Rosalina in Koopa, Rosalina Boomerang, the ice boot and the light box, except for Fire Rosalina, who is in her red outfit.

Curiosities. (3)

• In Mario Kart Tour you can see him dressed in different ways; Rosalina in swimsuit, Rosalina witch, Rosalina Aurora suit, Rosalina Chef, Rosalina Bolenda and Baby Rosalina detective. You can also use Rosalina Tanooki and Rosalina Fire. • It is possible to see a deleted version of Dr. Rosalina and Dr. Destellos. • One theory states, that although it sounds crazy, the mother that Rosalina is looking for is herself, since she is the mother of the stars, and she was able to see her mainly in her dreams, however, it is still possible that Luigi is Rosalina's canonical father, even though she does not see him that way, since he comes from another dimension. • At the end of Mario Galaxy you can see how the planet is being destroyed by a black hole, the Sparkles sacrifice themselves to create a new universe, one with completely different life, who Rosalina explains to Mario that this is how the universe works, and that there will be a new Rosalina in his universe. This is truly unique, as it is understood that Rosalina every 100 years that the cycle repeats itself must go to Earth again to see herself as a child and be her own mother, repeating the cycle of the universe several times, when her daughter is simply ready, Rosalina disappears so that her daughter (herself) continues her legacy. • Despite seeing a green cap, it can actually be seen that it belonged to his brother, and not his father.

History in Narrative.

Mario: *Enters surprised into the room on one of the space islands.* Rosalina: *Sitting in a chair surrounded by many Sparkles, she opens a book to begin narrating.* “Let's begin!” • Chapter 1: Two souls. Our story begins a long, long time ago. One day, a girl found a starship, in it lived Spark, a tiny being. The girl asked the little star. - What's your name? Are you lost? - I'm Sparkle, and I'm waiting for Mom. She'll come for me on a comet! Flash had been waiting for long days and long nights. The girl made a promise to Flash. - Don't worry, I'll wait with you. When night fell, the girl borrowed her father's telescope and observed the sky. Unfortunately, no matter how much he looked at the sky, the comet he was looking for did not appear. Days, weeks and years passed, but he still didn't appear. In the end, the girl said to Flash between sighs. - I'll end up being over a hundred years old if we just sit here waiting. Then he had an idea. - Let's go find your mom ourselves! The girl and Sparkle fixed the rusty starship and set off for the starry sky. And that's how the search for Flash's mother began. • Chapter 2: Star pieces. The days passed without a trace of the comet, nor of a single planet. Instead, asteroids could only be seen as far away as the eye could see. - If I had known it would take so long, I would have brought more jam. The girl said, feeling hungry. Before leaving, I had prepared all the essentials: bread, milk, jam, a telescope, a stuffed bunny, a butterfly net, and apricot-flavored tea, but... - I forgot to bring water! Hearing that, Flash started laughing, and the girl started pouting. - I'll be fine as long as I have star pieces. - Flash said - Why don't you try them? The girl could not remain angry upon hearing this.

Flash continued to laugh, and the girl couldn't help but laugh too. - Okay, I guess I can try a little. Using the girl's butterfly net, the two peered out from the ship and began collecting Star Pieces. They nearly fell several times, but kept going. The star pieces tasted like honey. • Chapter 3: The comet. A ray of light passed through the ship's window. Believing it to be the morning sun, the girl looked out the window and saw a bright turquoise-blue comet. NOTE: The starship had the same shape as the red mushrooms that make Mario grow in size. The girl woke up Flash and shouted excitedly: - We have to get to that comet! They both descended onto the comet and discovered that it was made of ice. They searched everywhere, but they couldn't find Sparkle's mother. Exhausted, the girl sat on the ground, somewhat bewildered, unable to take another step. - Look! Look! Flash looked at the surface and discovered several Star Pieces. - What do you think? Finding Star Pieces is my specialty! Flash was radiant. - There is a lot of ice here, but it is also very warm. And we are sure to find water here, it is a paradise. After thinking about it, they decided to live there for a while. The two continued searching for Turquoise Flash's mother. Chapter 4: The dream. One night, the girl dreamed of her mother. - Where are you going? The girl asked while her mother's back was turned. Her mother spoke without turning around: - I'm not going anywhere. I'll always be watching you. During the day I'll be the sun, and at night I'll be the moon. I'll always be flying for you. Suddenly, the girl became sad. - What will happen on rainy days, when you could not see either the sun or the moon? His mother thought for a moment and answered.

- Those days, I will be a star waiting for the end of your cries on a cloud. When the girl woke up, her eyes were bathed in tears. Flash approached her and said: - You have your whole face covered in Star Pieces. - These are tears, not Star Pieces! I'm crying because I'll never see my mother again! Hearing that, Flash also started crying. - Mom, mom... They traveled on the comet across the starry sky, and although they found many other comets, Sparkle's mother was not on any of them. Sparkle was very sad. - Come on, Flash. The rain clouds won't go away if you keep crying. The girl said, hugging Flash. - If you stop crying, I'll give you a present. The girl closed her eyes and said in a gentle voice. - I'll take care of you. And at that very moment, he felt a warm flame deep in his heart. Chapter 5: Home. - This is where the kitchen will be, here we will put the library. Here we will put the game room. The girl said energetically to herself. Ever since the girl decided to take care of Flash, she had been very busy. - It's a lot of work, but it's worth it to create a happy home. It turned out that the Star Pieces weren't the only thing buried in the ice. There were tools and furniture that were unlike any they had ever seen, and the girl used them to build a house. When they finished, Flash said: - Don't you think it's too big for us? It had a library, a bedroom, a kitchen, a fountain and even a games room. It was very spacious, but something was still missing. - I wish my father, mother and brother were here. The girl said with nostalgia. It was true, the house was too big for the two little residents. That night, hugging her stuffed rabbit to her heart, the girl fell asleep on the starship.

Chapter 6: Friendship. Then one day as the girl sat drinking tea, a small apricot-colored planet appeared on the horizon. There lived a creature just like her little companion. The girl said excitedly: - You two are the same! But they remained silent and seemed a little nervous. The two little ones watched each other endlessly, neither coming closer nor moving away. - It's my mom! At that moment, the apricot-colored Flash responded like an echo. - My mom! My mom! The two flashes danced frantically around the girl, and neither of them stopped. The girl was so delighted by this adorable scene that she started laughing. And at that moment something very strange happened. Suddenly, more Flashes began to jump out of the apricot planet, they were blue Flashes, yellow Flashes, and all kinds of colors, but they all screamed the same thing. - My mom! My mom! Seeing the Sparks screaming, the girl laughed more and more. - What am I going to do with all these children?! The Sparkles looked at her in confusion as she laughed even harder. - Well, I'll start by giving each of you a name. Chapter 7: The telescope. After seeing the hundredth comet, the girl suddenly thought. - I wonder if the planet I was born on still has a blue glow. At that moment, he remembered that he had his father's telescope. Looking through the telescope he saw a blue planet. It was even smaller than a piece of star. - How strange, it's so far away, but I feel it very, very close. I turned the telescope lens, and the blue planet grew and grew until it came into focus on a hill. I had always fondly remembered that landscape. - I used to go there to see the stars when I lived on my home planet. He was looking right at the hill of his childhood. He remembered that hill where he had been with his father watching the stars... He remembered sledding down that hill with his brother...

History in Narrative. (5)

He remembered that hill where he used to have lunch with his mother on sunny days... AND... - I want to go back! I want to go home right now! The girl began to cry, and the Sparks were bewildered. They didn't know what to do. - I want to go back! I want to go to my house on the hill! I want to see my mother! The girl began to cry and her screams had no end. - But I know she's not there, my mother can't be with the stars! It's impossible... Impossible. Because my mother... - He's sleeping under the tree on the hill! The girl's cries echoed throughout the galaxy, but she was met with only silence. Chapter 8: The desire. Although the girl was usually very happy, one day she became sad again. Sparkle came over and tried to cheer her up. - Mom, you have me! - And don't worry about your mom. She's inside you, and that means you always have her close by! - The same thing happens to me, I love Star Pieces because they remind me of my mom. - No no! The girl couldn't stop sobbing. Flash, after putting on a sad face, smiled widely. - I have an idea! - I'll become a wandering comet that will take you everywhere on your journey! As soon as he spoke these words, Flash was enveloped in a glow. Although he seemed to be flying to the most infinite heights, he plummeted towards the same comet. Ba-baaam! Za-baaam! The ground began to shake, and a trail of light emerged from the hole that had formed. The trail of light began to spin like a frantic whirlwind, and finally became a whole to form the tail of a comet. The Flash was reborn in the form of commentary. The girl could not understand what was happening. She kept asking what was going on. - Why? How? Then a Red Flash said: - Our destiny as Sparks is to transform into stars, comets, planets... We can become all of those things!

A green flash said: - When I grow up, I want to become a star that brings a smile to a loved one. Finally, a blue Flash said: - It turned into a very pretty comet, didn't it? All the Sparks screamed at once. - Don't cry anymore, mom! The girl said in a whisper. - Thank you! And then he hugged the Sparkles. From that day on, the Star Pieces stopped coming out of the girl's eyes. The comet, with great dignity and beauty, whispered its wake across the cosmos, heading towards the girl's home. Epilogue: Family. A thousand flashes, a thousand telescopic ones. The comet was so beautiful that the girl and the Sparks made it their home. At the welcoming party for a new Spark, the girl gathered all the Sparks in the kitchen and said... - Let's make a cake and sprinkle it with Star Pieces! It'll be a star cake! The Sparkles, excited, began to gather the ingredients. Seeing the Sparkles running back and forth the girl thought: - Now, this is my family, and I will be with them until they are ready to leave the nest. And when they leave, I will send them off with a smile. - Because that is the greatest reason for happiness for a mother. That night when the girl went to bed, a soft light enveloped her and made her remember her blue planet. - But it would be great to come home every hundred years and sleep in my favorite spot. The comet carrying the lumas and the girl continued its journey throughout the galaxy. Today, he has countless companions who are now family, and once every hundred years, he returns to the girl's home planet. His wake is as resplendent as ever. NOTE: The girl was Rosalina as a child. END Rosalina: *Closes the book proudly after finishing the narrative of her past.* “And so the story ends.”
