Life Mushroom (Paper Mario series)
Template:Recipe-Infobox A Life Shroom is an item found in the Paper Mario series. Whenever Mario (or his partner in Thousand-Year Door) is defeated in battle, the Life Shroom will revive the character and return 10 HP to him or her. In Paper Mario, they first appeared in the Boo's Mansion at Igor's shop. Later on they appeared in both ? Blocks and in the shop in Star Haven. The second item Mario can buy from Rip Cheato will be a Life Shroom. They're also left by Li'l Oinks that are orange and have white spots. In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, the item can be bought for fourty coins in Twilight Town and for fifty coins at Westside Goods. One is in Hooktail Castle, Twilight Trail, and given away as a shopping prize when the player reach 200 points. Life Shrooms are also found in ? Blocks later in the game.
They reappear in Super Paper Mario, but only recover five HP when Mario, Peach, Bowser or Luigi falls.
They also appear in Super Mario Galaxy, where they work differently. When Mario collects one, his maximum life energy will go from three to six. However after he takes damage three times without healing, his maximum life energy will remain at three.
