The Yoshi Bodyguards (YBs) was an organization originally founded for the purpose of defending Prime Minister Yoshi. It contained groups from all around the universe, heroes from the furthest reaches of space. It was founded by Asmodeus Yoshilier, though legendary figures such as Mack, Top, and Sneezier. Together, they defeated legendary villains, both on Star World and throughout the universe. Also of note is its Clone Army, which continued even after the groups breakup.

The Yoshi Bodyguards were the main focus of the Yoshi Bodyguard Universe (as stated by the name), and though the group broke up in the canon, its influence is stated in almost every story, character, and event in the timeline.

History

NOTE: This is a summary of primary events in the Yoshi Bodyguards that effected the organization as a whole.

The Founding

The Yoshi Bodyguards was founded by Asmodeus Yoshilier, who was born into the famed Yoshilier family, who's decedents fought a legendary battle with the demon Vaufendor hundreds years ago. His cousin, Yoshi, however, was a considerable political figure for the Yoshi Islands. This lead him to being a target for enemies such as the Koopa Kingdom, which did sent assassins and enemies to pester him with attempted kidnappings and murder. In response, Asmodeus gathered together the most talented group of individual fighters he could find. This group was the Yoshi Bodyguards, and they had one purpose: Defend Yoshi.

The first to respond were enduring figures such as Topper Mon Hit, Mexous Sniffin, Mack, and Power Box (It's a little-known fact that Top Mon Hit came a bit later). Several operations were upheld to defend Yoshi from captors, mostly from the Koopa Kingdom, though with the recent integration of space travel, extraterrestrial threats also threatened his safety. Incidents such as the Atomic Bill Crisis nearly devastated the Yoshi Bodyguards, though they continued on through, reforming after every loss.

The early adventures of the Yoshi Bodyguards were not very well chronicled, but it was known many were random and choppy, fighting some of the most unlikely villains. Many times, different groups would work on different missions, eventually going beyond defending Yoshi. Histories of members became involved, and what started as an honor guard became a group rivaling the SWDF as Star World's primary defensive group.

The Forces of Evil and the Clone Army

The Yoshi Bodyguards job became much more complicated once Yoshi was elected Prime Minister of Mushroom Kingdom. His term in office was met with public outcry, and many who profited under the former administration. Worst of these was Darkcorp, who's CEO then began a series of attacks on the Yoshi Bodyguards, attempting to remove them, and the prime minister, from office via guerrilla tactics. Eventually, Darkcorp was defeated, their influence on the universe broken.

All the while, two other threats rose up. The Confederation of Universal Evil and the Federation of Evil Acquaintances both declared war on the Yoshi Bodyguards. The FOEA's was formed from the beaten enemies the Yoshi Bodyguards had defeated, and targeted the Yoshi Bodyguards proper as opposed to Yoshi alone. The fight with them was long and fierce, eventually leading to the streets of Mushroom Kingdom, but they, too, were broken eventually; twice, in fact.

The COUE, however, took far longer to uproot. Their goals were simply to dominate Star World to spread their social darwinism and to exploit the planet's resources. Thus, a more organized effort with the SWDF was used to ward them away. With the core members of the Yoshi Bodyguards set against the FOEA (among other factions that opened up at the time), this left Subsourian the Dark and Sneezier as the primary tacticians against their operations.

Though the Yoshi Bodyguards did beat the FOEA and warded away the COUE, it became increasingly clear they could not deal with a full-scale military force with numbers so low.

That all changed soon after. On the planet Yoth, Mack formed an army from the cells of different Yoshi Bodyguard members. This was the Yoshi Bodyguard Clone Army, numbering in the thousands. They were put to use against the COUE, handily weakening their forces. Though several members disliked the use of clones, they did prove useful in operations thereafter where the core group could not manage.

The Dark Ages

The Yoshi Bodyguards were truly tested soon after. The Yoshilier family line's history finally came back, when the demon Vaufendor arose from his defeat long ago. He put into ploy a long-awaited plan, where he unleashed a mass of demons upon Star World. In the chaos, Asmodeus's adopted son Summer Yoshilier heard the whispers of Vaufendor, and killed Asmodeus in cold blood.

The other Yoshi Bodyguards were scattered, using the base's warp gate to escape the demon's grip. Some of them returned to Star World, attempting to fight off Vaufendor. Others went on adventures of their own, while others simply went to find refuge until the events blew over. The Clones, however, were not so lucky, and many were slaughtered in the first week either in the base or in defense.

Summer took on the name of Lord Fazar, leading the demons across Star World. Meanwhile, Asmodeus's other adopted (wolf) son, Anubis Yoshilier wandered the planet, attempting to find a way to defeat Vaufendor. Several other forces lead open resistance on Star World, though it was in vain. Cities such as Yoshioplis were utterly devastated, no remnant left, while Mushroom Kingdom and the Koopa Kingdom managed to defend themselves against the demon invasion for long enough to keep their holdings.

Anubis was captured by Fazar, but then discovered the demon's secret: He was serving a higher master, the legendary Dark Titans. Anubis escaped, but was too late to stop their summoning. The resistance was devastated as their mere presence dissolved all metal.

Anubis eventually did face off against Fazar, almost defeating him, but discovering the connection between the two: if Summer died, so would Anubis. Vaufendor taunted him, but Anubis dueled him, defeating him in combat, using a pendant of his father to destroy him.

Subsourian the Dark, along with the Lost leader Trema, attempted to fight the Titans, but failed, Sub managing to stall the Titans with a full Ereshikigal, though it ravaged him for months onward. The Titans did recover, and summoned their master, a massive octopus-like demon sealed in the very dimension. Once summoned, it began to consume entire planets and fleets in his way, and was ready to destroy Star World.

It was then Anubis stood on one of the highest mountains, and raised his pendant to the sky. It summoned a massive bird creature, who destroyed the Titans, and battled with the Planet-eating demon. The two seemed evently matched until a song played throughout the universe, sang by a massive turtle, which lulled the fighting creatures to sleep. Eventually, Star World regained its former life. With that, the Dark Ages ended.

Oh and something about Asmodeus III. He popped in somewhere.
