Firebrand and Thunderhand are two beings (described as genies^[1] or guardian spirits^[2]) that appear in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and its remake, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions. They both wear white cloaks, are capable of floating in the air, and they always appear in a flash of fire and thunder, respectively. Firebrand's head is styled after a sun, while Thunderhand's head is shaped like a moon crescent. Firebrand is forgetful and easygoing, in contrast with Thunderhand's no-nonsense attitude.

Firebrand and Thunderhand inhabit the Fire Palace and Thunder Palace and are the masters of two respective types of Hand Power: the Firebrand and the Thunderhand. Firebrand teaches Mario the former technique, while Thunderhand teaches Luigi the latter technique.
