SMG4 is the main character of the YouTube series of the same name, created by Luke Lerdwichagul, a "recolor" (modified version) of Mario who acts as the "guardian of memes" and leader of a gang of chaotic characters, being a key character in the adventures that parody video games and internet culture, evolving from a "machinist" (creator of Mario 64 videos) to a figure with his own identity, voice (dubbed by Luke) and a complex history, often dealing with the madness of Mario and his archenemy SMG3.

Origin and Creator:
Luke Lerdwichagul: The true creator, born on May 24, 1999 in Australia, is the one who gives the original voice to the character.
Starting as "Machinist": The series began with Super Mario 64 (SM64) videos created with an emulator, where SMG4 was a more serious character dealing with Mario.
Character Features (SMG4):
Appearance: Originally a blue and white Mario, his design has evolved, including changes to his cap, eyes, and buttons, reflecting his journey and sanity.
Personality: He is the de facto leader of his group, a "guardian of memes" who uses pop culture, video games and viral memes, although sometimes he loses his mind trying to create the "perfect video".

Members: Along with Mario, the cast includes characters such as Meggy Spletzer (athlete), Bob (a soda can), Fishy Boopkins (a fish), Tari (a gamer), Luigi (worker), and others.
Evolution: Initially more focused on Mario 64 bloopers, the series expanded into more complex adventures with the introduction of new characters and story arcs.
