He is a limbless, robotic entity who floats as if utilizing anti-gravity.

The Ancient Minister is the primary antagonist for the majority of the Subspace Emissary. He appears to be the leader of the Subspace Army, and controls the R.O.B. Squad and their deployments of Subspace Bombs. He is similar in appearance to the race of Ancients in the Paper Mario series, such as Merlon. He is a limbless, robotic entity who floats as if utilizing anti-gravity.

Role in the Subspace Army

Every time R.O.B.s were ordered to activate a Subspace Bomb, the Ancient Minister would leave in despair as he watched his comrades fall into the abyss of Subspace (it takes two R.O.B.s to activate a bomb). He would often show signs (using his eyes) to show that he didn't want to do what he was commanded to do. At one point, when Samus, Pikachu, Captain Falcon, Olimar, Donkey Kong, and Diddy Kong managed to infiltrate the base where dozens of inactive R.O.B.s and Subspace Bombs were being held, along with a saddened Ancient Minister, a hologram of Ganondorf appeared and ordered the R.O.B.s to activate the bombs. As the Subspace Bombs would destroy everyone, the Ancient Minister protests, and knocks away the R.O.B.s that are about to set the bombs. Seeing this, Ganondorf activated an override (which forced the R.O.B.s to attack the Ancient Minister) and his hologram disappears. The Ancient Minister's armor is burned off, revealing that The Ancient Minister was actually a R.O.B. in disguise, having been manipulated by Ganondorf.

The Ancient Minister's trophy states he was once the ruler of 'this world' who lived on The Floating Island of the Ancients with the R.O.B.s. Tabuu wanted the R.O.B.s to work constructing Subspace bombs, and convinced the Minister to order them to do this and lead the Subspace Army. Also according to the game and confirmed by the "Smash Bros Dojo!!", he is the "Master Robot" of the R.O.B.s.

As a trophy

The Ancient Minister trophy is obtained as a reward for completing the "Clear The Subspace Emissary" Challenge.
