Parabones: Difference between revisions

'''Parabones''' are winged variants of [[Dry Bones]] and undead variants of [[Koopa Paratroopa]]s. They are the only flying derived species of [[Koopa Troopa]] to appear in a 3D ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' platformer.

Parabones first appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'', replacing the normal Dry Bones in prior 3D games. They fly a small distance above the ground and charge into the player if they notice them. Like normal Dry Bones, if a Parabones is attacked without the use of a [[Super Star]], [[Lucky Bell]], or [[Invincibility Leaf]], it will collapse temporarily, but reassemble itself after a short time; unlike their living counterparts, they do not lose their wings when they get hit. During its reassembly, it is vulnerable to getting attacked. A Parabones can also be permanently destroyed if it collapses over [[lava]] or a [[pit]]. They first appear in [[Fuzzy Time Mine]]. Parabones retain all these properties in the port, ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]''.

Parabones reappear in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', where they appear in a secret area of [[Bowser's Kingdom]] and the Underground Moon Caverns in the [[Moon Kingdom]]. They wear white top hats and can be [[capture]]d by using [[Cappy]]. As a Parabones, Mario can fly by pressing {{button|ns|B}}, and can shake the [[Nintendo Switch#Joy-Con|Joy-Con]] to fly faster. Like when Mario captures a [[Paragoomba]], he cannot fly higher than where he started, but has no limits other than level boundaries when flying forwards. If Mario runs into lava or a [[Lava Geyser]] while flying, the Parabones disappears, though they respawn soon afterwards. The skull on the Caveman Headwear is stated to come from a Parabones.
