Character Sheet: Dry Bones (Paper Mario+)

DRY BONES

Today, let's let the floodgates burst forth. The RPGs, being RPGs, have proved a wellspring of brand-new characters and possible major revisions of pre-existing characters. Since there are so many, I will start by covering all of the revisions first. Here they are:

1. Mario
2. Luigi
3. Princess Peach
4. Toad
4e. Toadette
5. Bowser
6. Bowser Jr.
7. The Koopalings
8. Koopa Troopa
8e. Dry Bones
9. Goomba
10. Piranha Plant
11. Boo
12. Blooper
13. Lakitu and Spinies
14. Monty Mole
15. Hammer Bro
16. Wiggler
17. Chain Chomp
18. Birdo
19. Petey Piranha
20. Yoshi
21. Kamek
22. Shy Guy
23. Bandit

Today, let's cover the Dry Bones enemy. Not much to say here. They appear in most of the Paper Mario games, acting much as they normally do. The one major thing of note is that, as an echo of the Koopa Troopas, they will inherit some of the updated moves that came with your Koopa companions like Koops and Kooper.

Here is the character's moveset:

Standard B: Bone Throw

Side B: Shell Spin

Up B: Para Bones

Down B: Shell Cage
Same, but made of bones basically.

Final Smash: Zombie Horde
This one's more based on scenes like Hooktail castle, when a bunch of Dry Bones come to life and swarm you.

Entrance: Starting out as a pile of bones before coming together.

Taunts: Falling apart and coming together, tossing his head around, so on.

Next up: Let's cover Goombella and Goombario, our Goomba reps!
