Joseph Hisfriendfromschool is a main character in the SML series and a homeless student at Y U DUMB? Elementary School who is best friends with Bowser Junior and Cody. Joseph spends most of his days at Junior's house due to his homelessness. Debuting as a random friend of Junior's in "Bowser Junior's Cellphone", Joseph, along with Cody, rose to prominence as major protagonists of the summer School series, and has been a main character ever since as one of Bowser Junior's best friends. Originally a just a regular kid with a speech impediment and a great love and talent for sport, Joseph slowly started losing his mind after he was led to believe he murdered his own mother in her sleep, and up until his friends visited his house, refused to believe and mocked him. He usually spends his time with Junior and Cody, and it has become a running gag of his reminding Cody that his boyfriend, a Ken doll, isn't real, often yelling "Dude! He's a doll!" and "He's a doll dude!" Joseph is a young red shelled Koopa Paratroopa, formerly a regular Koopa Troopa with a green shell (which in an alternate timeline became human along with his friends). Due to his wings, it is suggested that he became a turtle-bird hybrid, as he gained the ability to fly after he requested for a new shell with wings when he broke his shell. However, just because Joseph has wings doesn't mean that Joseph is part bird. He is best friends with Bowser Junior and Cody. In a non-canon timeline, Joseph lives in a mansion with a private butler despite people thinking he was poor (he was only pretending to be poor). If the video revealing it was canon, Joseph would have been one of the richest characters in SML, along with Goodman and King Strongbottom. He also might be a homosexual in the human puppet universe given the one scene in "Cody's Accident!" where Cody gets a rope and tries to kill Joseph, but Joseph did not die, and Joseph liked where he got strangled by a rope by Cody.
