The '''Toad Minister''' (called the '''Chancellor''' in the English version of ''Super Mario RPG'') is a high-ranking government official in the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] and [[Princess Peach]]'s advisor. He appeared in the games ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and ''[[Paper Mario]]''.

[[Toadsworth]] seems to have taken over his role in recent games and bears many similarities with him. Both are overprotective of Princess Peach, shown when the Minister forbids her from joining Mario in his quest to defeat [[Smithy]]. Like many other Toads, both are easily startled and frightened. The Minister was scared of Mario's impersonation of [[King Bowser]], and during the [[Smithy Gang]]'s invasion of the [[Mushroom Kingdom]], the Chancellor hid behind a column in the throne room during the entire occupation.

[[Mario]] freed the Toad Minister, along with many other [[Toad (species)|Toads]], when the hero stormed [[Bowser's Castle]].

In the [[beta]] version of ''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'', the Chancellor was a bearded, generic, elderly-looking Toad. When the Chancellor was given a new design, his old one was used for the elderly residents of the Mushroom Kingdom, including the shopkeeper of the local [[Item Shop]]. The older-looking sprite of the Chancellor may have been a placeholder.

The elderly Toad Minister.

The Toad Minister is a high-ranking government official in the Mushroom Kingdom. He appeared in the game Paper Mario. The minster was imprisoned by Bowser after the Koopa king captured Princess Peach's Castle. Mario freed the Toad Minister, along with many other Toads, when the hero stormed Bowser's Castle.

The Toad Minster is reminiscent of the Chancellor from Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. In the Japanese version of Paper Mario, he was given the same name as the Chancellor in Super Mario RPG. Both wear green mushroom caps, have large mustaches, have gold trim on their robes, and are high-ranking Mushroom Kingdom officials. He also bears a passing resemblance to Toadsworth.
