Super Luigi (series): Difference between revisions

The '''Super Luigi''' series is a collection of books about [[Luigi]]'s adventures in the [[Waffle Kingdom]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. These books tell a story about Luigi's quest to save [[List of implied characters#Princess Eclair|Princess Eclair]].

The Super Luigi series' tale usually differs from Luigi's rendition of his story. For example, in the [[Jazzafrazz Town]] section of the story, Luigi and his partner, [[Hayzee]], state that in Hayzee's stage production, Luigi played the part of grass, while the books say that Luigi played the part of an earth spirit. The books make the stories told in Super Luigi more romanticized than they really are. Additionally, the books add a few details to the end Luigi does not mention, such as the Chestnut King being Princess Eclair's fiancé and Minister Crepe being the real villain, the latter of which is only vaguely mentioned by Luigi as a demon appearing after the Chestnut King's defeat.

''"Mix a [[Keel Mango]] with a [[Peachy Peach]] to whip up a [[Fruit Parfait]]." These cryptic words were all Luigi wrote before leaving.<br>

''A fierce Bob-omb warrior named [[Jerry (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Jerry]] joined his crew and chose, not surprisingly, to stick with Luigi for the duration of his quest for Eclair.<br>

Throughout the game, [[Luigi]] can be seen with several partners, like his brother. During each visit to [[Rogueport]], Luigi is seen with a different partner, unlike Mario's partners, however, Luigi's partners seem to largely dislike him and only travel with him because they owe him a debt. After almost every exaggerated story that Luigi tells Mario, the partners secretly told Mario what really happened. Most of [[Luigi]]'s allies are based on food: [[Blooey]] is based on a cook-prepared octopus, [[Jerry (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Jerry]] is based on a cherry, [[Screamy]] is supposedly based on whipped cream, and hamburger-like [[Spinia]]s and ice cream-like [[Spania]]s are found in the game's [[List of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door pre-release and unused content|coding]] next to the other allies, implying they were planned to be Luigi's partners.

|rowspan=1 |[[Blooey]], known to his friends as the "White Torpedo", is a feisty [[Blooper]] who joins [[Luigi]] on his quest to rescue [[Princess Eclair]]. He has obvious animosity towards Luigi. [[Mario]] first meets them in the plaza in [[Rogueport]], where Luigi details their escapades in [[Rumblebump Volcano]]. Although Luigi claims to have successfully thrown Blooey at a monster, killing the golem, he actually tripped and sent Blooey crashing into lava, turning Blooey golden tan.

|rowspan=1 |[[Jerry (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Jerry]] is the second partner that joins [[Luigi]] on his adventure to rescue [[Princess Eclair]]. Jerry is a [[Bob-omb]] who bears a resemblance to a cherry as he is red in color with a fuse like a cherry stem. Luigi and Jerry travel to [[Plumpbelly Village]], where Luigi dresses up as a bride so that he can be offered to a two-headed snake as a sacrifice. They defeat the snake, and Jerry accompanies Luigi to make sure no one has to witness the sight of Luigi in a wedding dress again.

|rowspan=1 | [[Torque (character)|Torque]] is a [[Spike Top]] that teams up with [[Luigi]] in his quest to assemble the [[Marvelous Compass]]. Differing in appearance from a regular Spike Top, Torque has a green shell, and instead of a spike, Torque's has a wrench. Apparently, Torque has the ability to attach a variety of different tools to his shell, and as such, he became a mechanic of go-karts. When Luigi arrived on [[Circuit Break Island]], he discovered that the champion of the kart races would earn a trophy with a piece of the Marvelous Compass embedded in the plaque. Luigi claims that he entered the contest and was paired with Torque and together, they won the race and earned the piece of the Marvelous Compass. In reality, however, at the beginning of the race, Luigi accidentally went in reverse, destroying all the karts in the competition and thus winning the race. Torque decides to tag along with Luigi until the plumber can pay him back for all the damage he caused on the island.

|rowspan=1 | [[Hayzee]] is a [[Crazee Dayzee]] with green petals, whom [[Luigi]] meets during his quest to assemble the [[Marvelous Compass]]. Hayzee lived in [[Jazzafrazz Town]], where he wrote a musical entitled "The Mystery of The Fiery Hat of Social Awareness" for the annual Jazzafrazz Town Drama Slam. As it turned out, the compass piece that Luigi needed was a part of the Dramalama Plaque, the prize for winning the Drama Slam. So, Luigi became an actor in Hayzee's play. While Hayzee played the part of The Red Miracle, Luigi, much to his chagrin, played the part of grass. In the end, their musical was most popular by far, they won the Drama Slam, and Hayzee joined Luigi on his quest. Hayzee tells Mario that after he and Luigi finish their quest, he wants to take his play all over the world, of course, Luigi will be grass. Out of all Luigi's partners, Hayzee seems to be the only one that does not despise or find something wrong with Luigi.

|rowspan=1 | [[Screamy]] is one of [[Luigi's|Luigi]] partners in the quest to save [[Princess Eclair]]. Luigi met Screamy while looking for a piece of the [[Marvelous Compass]] in [[Rapturous Ruins]]. It is unknown why or how Screamy joined up with Luigi as Luigi does not say and the most Screamy explains is "I must deliver something". His name and appearance invoke a scoop of ice cream in keeping with the dessert theme of Luigi's adventure.
