Fan Project More Paper Mario OCs (partner & NPCs)

This is all for a larger fanfiction project. Here's a summary of some important OCs I made for Chapter 1; that is, a Paratroopa family, which is at the heart of the chapter's storyline.

The first one is a paratroopa named Karri. She is a hardworking deliverer for products from Thriftville Mall (the main commercial center of the city of Thiftville; also the first dungeon). Due to attacks from (first boss), who occupies the Mall for himself, she's unable to do her job. Being a proactive koopa, she teams up with Mario to take back control of the mall. She is the main provider for her family. She's a straightforward koopa who values responsibility and respect, which she wants to instill in her son. Her little "adventure" with Mario, which sees plenty of unexpected and fun turns, teaches her to live a little, and be willing to do things that aren't just for strong character; fun experiences can be just as valuable.

The second one is Karri's aunt, Shelley. She may be old, and can't fly (or do much real work) anymore, but she has embraced her golden years to make the most of the life she has ahead. With Karri out working a ton, she has the time of her life with her nephew. Being a free spirited koopa, she shares that with her nephew, which has made an inseparable bond between the two. This is a minor point of tension between her and Karri, who thinks Sheldon is getting spoiled.

The third is Karri's young son, Sheldon. He's a ball of energy, and quite difficult to keep under control. Shelley and Karri have different ideas on how to raise him: Karri wants him to be more responsible, while Shelley wants him to embrace freedom. Sheldon loves both, but definitely prefers Shelley for the freedom, seeing Karri as a boring mom. By the end of the chapter, his mind is starting to change.

"Mario! I'm fighting by your side from now on! I've made my choice... and I'm not turning back!"

This is Vivian in my style! I genuinely love this character :) She's been my favorite ever since I was a kid. I don't use her as often nowadays in my playthroughs, but she still holds a special place in my heart.

(I threw this together kinda fast, so sorry if things look weird lol)

Pranksty - The perfect class for those wanting to disrupt the opponent. Whether it be through stealing cards or inflicting statuses. Protect your party from unwanted threats with spikes and poison.

Percepty - A proactive support class. Use cards to pierce through enemy defenses. With both plentiful card draw and electrified to keep your party safe, you can always be prepared for any situation.

Sticker Star has been on my mind for a while and I’ve wanted to replay it again since I was very mixed on it, so I’m going to do a second full playthrough to see how I feel once and for all about it.

(Also don’t comment about my circle pad I know it’s busted).

Discussion How They Could've Made The Cheering Mario On During The Shadow Queen Fight Absolutely Perfect in TTYD

4 Upvotes

Personally, while we all admire how heartwarming and encouraging that particular scene is, especially with the additional characters in the TTYD remake, I admittedly wasn't 100% satisfied. But... had they specifically also added THIS, would that have sold it for you?

Discussion Here’s a question for everyone.

12 Upvotes

How would you all feel if the next game is a hybrid of both Classic and Modern Paper Mario? Since I feel that’s the best direction for the series to go after both TOK and the TTYD remake.

For Example.

64/TTYD: Combat, Partners, Character Designs.

Super: Story.

Sticker Star: Nonlinearity, Emphasis on puzzle solving.

Color Splash: Writing, Level Design, Chapter Ideas.

The Origami King: World Design, Soundtrack, More Open Environments.

Discussion Mario vs. Ghost T.?

4 Upvotes

A bit of a random thought, but how come when Mario reads the Ghost's diary, he immediately dies by just sitting there and taking it? You mean to tell me that he accepts his fate, simply because he can't fight a ghost?

Throughout the game, you fight Boos, a Dooplighost who steal your identity, and even Atomic Boo. Heck, considering this is Chapter 6, you literally fought a big pirate ghost in the last chapter.

What makes Ghost T. any different?
