Background
Lloyd (alternatively Loid) is one of the main characters of MOTHER (localized as EarthBound Beginnings). He lives in Thanksgiving and goes to school at Twinkle Elementary School. Although he cannot use PSI, he is skilled at using various mechanical objects and explosives.
Lloyd is normally the second character to join Ninten's party, but he can be the third member to join if the player chooses to get to Ana first. Lloyd is the only character that must join Ninten in order to complete the game, as he is needed to make all the areas north of Thanksgiving accessible, as well as being needed to access EVE.

- Boomerang: Weapon anyone can equip, raises offense by 32.
- Slingshot: Ranged weapon that raises offense by 7. Has a higher chance of missing then other weapons.

Weaknesses: One of the 2 party members that cannot perform PSI. Also naturally weaker then the rest of the party, asides from Ana in terms of strikes. Cannot interact with anyone as a ghost.
Explanations
- A good chunk of the scans used on this profile are from the MOTHER 1+2 fan translation, translated by Clyde Mandelin (Tomato), he is a professional translator, widely known for his legendsoflocalization post on EarthBound or MOTHER 2.
Miscellaneous Feats
Trivia
- Lloyd's blood type listed as AB MOTHER Encyclopedia[10].
- Lloyd (excluding Pippi) is the only party member in the game required to join Ninten in order to complete EarthBound Beginnings, being essential in clearing the path to the Thanksgiving train station and reaching EVE.
- His Japanese name is Roido, which is a pun on roidomegane, meaning "round glasses with plastic rims", the kind of glasses he wears. His name may have been localized as Lloyd, and ultimately Lloyd because in Japanese, R and L are pronounced interchangeably, and Lloyd sounds like the name Lloyd. As a further coincidence, Lloyd means 'grey' in Welsh, which happens to be the color of his hair.
- Lloyd has the second-fewest primary weapons in the entire Mother series, only having two; the Stun Gun and the Air Gun. For comparison, Poo only has one.
- Some people theorize that Lloyd was Dr. Andonuts as a child, as they look similar, and are shown to hide in garbage cans. However, this is unlikely due to Dr. Andonuts being far older than Lloyd, and EarthBound taking place in 199X, only around a decade after Beginnings, which takes place in 1988.

- ↑ Lloyd even now can't forget the paralyzing thrill that ran through his three-year old body when he saw the spine of this book. On top of that, he now seems to even think, "I am none other than the reincarnation of Einstein, the author of this book!"
- ↑ With Lloyd being that way, what raised his stakes a bit is accorded to his grand invention, "Bathroom TV (dedicated to Einstein)" when he was four years old. It was something where, upon using four mirrors, you could enjoy what was on the TV screen in the living room while you soaked in the bathtub. I guess you could say the words inside the parentheses are proof that he received extraordinary influence from the "Theory of Relativity" he found on his father's bookshelf when he was 3.
- ↑ Listen well, Ness. I am about to tell you something so important that you should probably write this down.
Ready? You are a chosen one. Your destiny is not yours alone… It is part of a universal “system”. - ↑ In MOTHER 2, Paula’s mom tells Ness not to worry about Paula, because “God is with her”. In EarthBound, this was localized to “She has a guardian angel, it seems.”
It’s not a big deal, and it’s pretty well-known that NOA didn’t want any religious stuff in their games back then, so the change is to be expected. I think the guardian angel line sounds better, anyway. But yeah, there’s no way NOA would’ve let a mention of the Christian God fly in their games back then.
But note that even though she mentions God in MOTHER 2, there are no real serious religious themes in the game. So don’t take this one change out of context and make a big deal out of it 😛 - ↑ In MOTHER 2, during part of Paula’s first prayer, she says something like, “Please, God, if you’re there…” or possibly even, “Please, God, if you’re real…”
In EarthBound, this religious reference got the smack-down and was trimmed to just, “Please…” - ↑ The truth of the universe travels the cosmos like a grain and like a wave and speaks to the universes known as man.
