Hero of Dreams

The Hero of Dreams was the savior of Subcon from ancient times and was a distant relative of the Royal Family of Subcon. He was a great hero spoken of in the legends of Subcon during that old era. The Subcon King compared Mario to him and said that he sees the Hero of Dreams in him. He then gave him the title "Hero of Subcon" to him, making him his successor. It was relieved that he was among the people with long ears but his father was human. He also had a descendant from the outside world who inherited the hero's Hylian blood.

Background
Long ago, there was a Great Subcon World War; a battle between dark monsters and the people of Subcon with its king. Just when the dream world was about to be ruined, the Hero of Dreams came from the sky to save the world. The king of Subcon thrown him the legendary blade to battle those monsters. The Hero of Dreams successfully defeated those beasts and brought back light to the world.

Years later after the Hero of Dreams's victory, the young Frog King, Wart, somehow came to Subcon with his army of frogs, and brought another war.

He died in battle, but the severaly injured king, who got his sword stolen after his loss, exiled Wart away and locked the door to Subcon.
