Axol was a modern main character in the SMG4 series.
He was a humanoid axolotl-creature and was the world's greatest manga artist, born in Inkopolis where he was bullied for his passion for anime, so he moved into Japan where he rose to fame. He was armed with a magic pen called the Inkweaver, that he used to bring drawings to life for a temporary amount of time. He eventually met SMG4 and his friends, and joined them to convince Peach Toadstool to lift the anime ban and later defeat Francis on Anime Island.
He then moved into the Mushroom Kingdom where he joined his friends in multiple adventures.
