{{spoiler}}Unlike the first two games, the focus is no longer on a group of children. Some chapters put completely different characters in the protagonist role. In one chapter the player controls a limping thief named Duster, in another chapter the main character is Salsa, a monkey who is constantly suffering abuse by a rich traveling merchant named Fassad. The only child character the player gets to control is Lucas, who is about nine to ten years old in the first three chapters and twelve to thirteen years for the remainder of the game. Further controllable characters include Kumatora, a tomboyish princess, Flint, a strange middle-aged cowboy and Lucas's father, and Lucas's dog, Boney.</span> | {{spoiler}} | ||

''Mother 3'' is set in the [[Nowhere Islands]], some unknown amount of years after ''[[EarthBound]]''. Chaos ensues after an invasion by the [[Pigmask Army]], named after the uniforms, which resemble pigs, and its leader, [[Porky Minch]], the "Pig King". They slowly construct a police state, while experimenting on the land's flora and fauna, and introducing new technology and infrastructure to the islands. The various chapters record the life of a boy named [[Lucas]] and his family and friends, banding together to rid the Nowhere Islands of the Pigmask Army. | ''Mother 3'' is set in the [[Nowhere Islands]], some unknown amount of years after ''[[EarthBound]]''.
