Snowman Doll

The Snowman Doll is an item found during the events of Paper Mario. The Snowman Doll, as its name implies, is a small doll-sized snowman. When used, a giant snowman jumps around the screen and inflicts four HP of damage to all enemies in the opposing party. It is extremely useful against fire-based enemies such as Lava Piranha or Pyro Guys. In the game's sequel, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, the Snowman Doll is replaced with the Ice Storm, which has slightly altered functions. Additionally, in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, which pre-dates Paper Mario, Mallow's special attack, Snowy, is similar to Snowman Doll, as it also summons a large snowman to damage enemies. It freezes enemies but does not harm them, simply leaving them immobile so the player can attack them. It can be bought in Boo's Mansion and Yoshi's Village for 15 coins, and in Shiver City for 8 coins. There is an item of the same name in StarTropics, an earlier Nintendo game.
