Dorrie

Dorrie is a large, marine dinosaur-like beast in Super Mario 64 who lives in an underground lake in the Hazy Maze Cave. She spends her days swimming in circles but will gladly give someone a ride if they get on her back. It is also possible to steer Dorrie. Just face the desired direction on her head and and she will swim in that direction. The sign tells you that she might eat you if you get close. As of yet there is only one person who claims he was eaten and its most likely a hoax.

Dorrie returns in the New Super Mario Bros.. Mario can ride on her back to cross large bodies of toxic water in certain levels of World 4. If Mario ground pounds Dorrie, she will move faster through the water.

Dorrie is a reaccuring minor character in the Mario Party series. Although only directly appearing in a few such as Mario Party 2, many aquatic equiptment such as boats are based on Dorrie.
