Talk:Doopliss

Are you guys sure that he's undead? He may have ghost like qualities, but that doesn't mean that he is undead. 20:59, 4 August 2007 (EDT)


 * Yeah.

NM, he probably is, considering he's a Duplighost. My bad. 21:11, 4 August 2007 (EDT)

Is this guy playable? cause, you know during the fight, he switches with Mario or something... - Ultimatetoad
 * He may switch some time during the battle or afterwards, it's not confirmed. But even if, I don't think we should call him playable for that. - 07:21, 16 September 2007 (EDT)
 * Agreed. We should not count him as playable. Even if it is Doopliss who is played as in the latter parts of the fight, it is only for a very brief moment.

Yeah... I was always confused by that scene..., but it was probably after the fight that he switched, since he knew the guy he was swithching with was the winner..... - Ultimatetoad

Hey guys I have a question! Okay I have sources that say he showed up in Yoshi Island DS. I have never played the game so I wouldn't know, but they have and they said he appeared. They may be joking with me since I am a Doopliss fan but still......last2dream
 * That's about impossible. Where are those sources? - 13:22, 26 July 2008 (EDT)

Is the "Magician" category relevant? He was never shown magic, just the normal Duplighost powers. That doesn't make him able do use magic anyway.
 * Except when he rends space, switches bodies, and cheats death, right? 71.189.88.214 13:15, 25 August 2013 (EDT)

Name
Does Doopliss's name come from "duplicitous" (deceitful) or "duplicity" (deceit)? 71.189.88.214 13:15, 25 August 2013 (EDT) I am pretty sure it is a play on words of duplicity... but then again, I may be wrong.

Add to Trivia?
Uh, has anyone noticed bells in Doopliss' theme song? I think that's a reference to him turning the villagers into pigs and we should add that to the Trivia section.

Fact or Fiction?
Is it actually true that Doopliss can't damage you if you can't damage him when you guess his name incorrectly? (I ask cause I either never tried it at all, or it's been like 15 years since I've done something similar) --NinTylo (talk) 03:19, June 21, 2020 (EDT)

Mario Form
Hey guys I found a gif of Doopliss in his Mario form from Supper Mario Broth but it still has the background in it should I add this to the gallery or keep looking for one without the background?  I&#39;manumber1 (talk) 17:22, October 20, 2021 (EDT)

Doopliss
The article mentions that Doopliss has the ability to steal other peoples body's when he copies them. Shouldn't it be mentioned that unlike other Duplighosts, Doopliss can not perfectly copy people as when Doopliss captures someone their eyes become round and they gain a "hunched over" position. (By the way you can't say this doesn't happen for Zip Toad and Professer Frankly because they both retain glasses that cover their eyes in order for the player to not be able to realize it's Doopliss.) However in Paper Mario for the N64 Duplighosts all perfectly copy Mario, even using his exact same sprites. This is another thing that makes Doopliss unique from other Duplighosts.

 * The round eyes and hunched position only applies when he copies Mario. Even when copying the partners in the Palace of Shadow, they're not hunched and their eyes are clearly normal. 18:16, November 12, 2021 (EST)

Could you show me a picture? I&#39;manumber1 (talk) 20:06, November 12, 2021 (EST)

Oh and even if this doesn't apply to all characters it should be noted that Doopliss cannot perfectly copy Mario unlike Duplighosts seen in the previous Paper Mario for N64. I&#39;manumber1 (talk) 20:08, November 12, 2021 (EST)
 * I feel like it was only done that way so that the player could tell the fake Mario from the real one. 20:10, November 12, 2021 (EST)
 * As for the partner statement, I would post a YouTube video here to prove my point but every video I could find was using Vivian as the active partner (and Doopliss only copies Mario or the currently active partner). However, I can still clarify from playing the game myself with Goombella and Yoshi; they still look identical to the real deals. I should point out even with Zip Toad, we see him with his sunglasses down after he was busted by Pennington, and his eyes are normal there. 20:40, November 12, 2021 (EST)
