There have been many mods of Cave Story. Some were simple story changes and map changes, but there have been many character changes. Character changes ranged from King (King Story AKA King: Strife and Sacrifice) to Curly (Curly Story, Curly's Past) to fan made character Abert (Mimiga Army) to Misery (Misery Story) and even to characters we thought couldn't be heroes but can, Ballos being one of them (Ballos Story) and even third-party characters like Sonic (Sonic's Story). But what puzzles me is, why didn't Balrog get his own mod where he's the hero? Why hasn't the most memorable character from Cave Story had his own mod yet? This is just an idea, but maybe someone could make Balrog Story?

While this is true that Balrog hasn't had his own story and it kinda sucks, I would recommend not asking people here to make a mod. I know you're just pitching an idea but people might interpret it otherwise. You could always learn how to mod and try to tackle it yourself though, though I'm not sure how hard that'll be since I don't partake in modding. But there's guides practically everywhere on this site, so...

the biggest obstacle with a balrog mod is that balrog does not fit in a 16x16 sprite

If a mod such as this were made, I would have but one thing to say:

That sounds like a good idea, but what would it be like? I think it could be him as a kid, or how he got cursed to be the crown bearers servant.

I would also be interested in seeing how you'd handle combat. It would look kinda weird for him to be shooting polar star bullets, for example. Some assembly hacking would almost definitely be required to get him to properly behave, both in controls, and visually for the reason Noxid stated above. Which is probably the primary reason nobody has made a Balrog mod before.

I'd be really great at procrastinating if I ever got around to it.

Yeah, I wouldn't mind seeing a Balrog story mod but, like all the people above are saying, it's gonna take a lot of assembly in order to make everything work(I know nothing about assembly so what I'm saying might be irrelevent in my case but, you know, just saying).

He isn't the one who is going to make it he just giving the idea to better assembly hackers, that way we might see a mod out like this. But then again like some people above said not many people know how to do this hard of assembly hacking, or at least not that I know of.

I think Balrog mods have been a redundant idea for quite some time. Seeing that there isn't a mod yet that means no one can do it yet.
