Luvbi, Super Paper Mario

Luvbi (a pun on Love and Nimbi) is a Pure Heart-turned-Nimbi in Super Paper Mario.

Luvbi is believed to be the daughter of Queen Jaydes and King Grambi, and she runs away often to escape her overprotective parents. She does not know why her parents are so protective, but it is later revealed that she is really a Pure Heart; Jaydes and Grambi transformed her from the Pure Heart into a living form to protect it, as "no one would suspect" a Nimbi to be a Pure Heart (though Bonechill did probably spy to find out about Luvbi's actual form). They admit that, over time, they grew to love Luvbi and felt as if she was their real daughter. Luvbi speaks in Early Modern English (as do all Nimbis), and is constantly putting others down, namely Mario, Princess Peach, Luigi, and Tippi.

Even though she changes into the Pure Heart at the end of Chapter 7, Luvbi can be seen standing next to her parents in Grambi's shrine if the player chooses to return to The Overthere after completion of Super Paper Mario, apparently recreated as a true Nimbi girl independent of the white Pure Heart (which can still be seen in its Flopside Heart Pillar) when the worlds were rebuilt at the end of the main story. When spoken to, she herself states she does not know how she exists as a Nimbi again.

Trivia

Luvbi as a Pure Heart
Luvbi's Pure Heart form.
  • It is interesting to note that, upon being told she was once a Pure Heart, Luvbi actually remembers being the Pure Heart, suggesting that the seemingly inanimate Pure Hearts may be more intelligent than most players would suspect.
  • Although in the English version of Super Paper Mario she talks in a very formal manner, in the Japanese version she talks very childishly.
  • Strangely enough, Luvbi never bothered to disrespect Bowser like she's done with the other heroes, though she does muse over his unrequited love for Princess Peach if Bowser is the one that starts World 7-3.
  • Pure Hearts are said to be the "embodiments of love". This might be how Luvbi got her name (combination of "Love" and "Nimbi").
