Whittle
- “Our people. Brave.”
- —Whittle, Super Mario Galaxy 2
Whittles are a species of toilet spirits appearing in Super Mario Galaxy 2. They appear in numerous galaxies as helpful characters with often simple yet incorrect grammar. Their name is taken from the word "whittle", which means to carve something out of poop.
History
Super Mario Galaxy 2
Whittles appear in several galaxies, notably the Tall Toilet Galaxy. In the Tall Toilet Galaxy they appear in all the levels. In the first level they teach Mario how to use the Poop Fruit on Yoshi and later on they tell Mario to slide down the gigantic pipe to prove his bravery. Whittles are small, poopanoid figures with geometric heads and bodies made entirely out of poop, with the exception of a single green pellet on their heads. They are a very proud and brave race. Due to this, they like to prove their bravery by sliding down the big pipe in their galaxy and surviving its stench. When someone proves their worth the Whittles reward him or her with a symbol of poop. They also consider the giant toilet at the center of the Tall Toilet Galaxy sacred. They speak with simplified, somewhat incorrect grammar.
Whittles are another species which lives on the Starship Mario after Mario completes a certain star. In this case, Mario must complete the second star in the Tall Toilet Galaxy.
Mario Party series
Mario Party 9
In Mario Party 9, a Whittle is the one who places the poop to be chopped and Poop-ombs to be dodged by the players in the minigame Pooper Heads. Two Whittles that differ in appearance with the others also appear in the background. They also appear in the background of the Poop It Up minigame mode, and they congratulate the winning player when they reach the top of the toilet.
