Goombario

“	Hey Mario! I'm Goombario. I'm your biggest fan!	„
	~ Goombario to Mario

Background

Goombario is a Goomba who lives in Goomba Village and greatly admires Mario and Luigi. As such, his name is a portmanteau of Goomba and Mario. Goombario is the first of his party members in Paper Mario, and his specialty is providing Mario with information about the various locations and enemies in the game. Thus, he is the only Party Member with two attacks which do not require FP. In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, this task is carried on by Goombella (in the French version of Paper Mario, he even talks in a similar fashion to her), in Super Paper Mario by Tippi and Tiptron, in Paper Mario: Sticker Star by Kersti, in Paper Mario: Color Splash by Huey and in Paper Mario: The Origami King by Olivia. Goombario's appearance is somewhat atypical to that of a standard Goomba in that he has two flat teeth instead of the standard fangs; the only other Goomba to have this trait is Professor Frankly. He also wears a blue cap and has blushed pink cheeks to distinguish himself from other Goombas.

Powers and Techniques

Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Information Analysis (With Tattle, Goombario can learn about an enemy and see their health), Statistics Amplification (With Charge, Goombario can increase his attack power as much as he pleases), Acausality (Irregular Causality; Bowser used the Star Rod to change the story itself. This caused the final battle between Mario and Bowser to actually not even have a plot, as the final pages to their entire story were ripped, meaning Bowser literally tore off the plot, which Goombario battled on), Self-Sustenance (Respiratory; Can breathe in space), Non-Standard Interaction (Can harm ghosts and interact with Lady Bow), Wish Granting & Truth Manipulation (The Star Spirits grant wishes to those who are deemed as good and towards people all over the world), Martial Arts (Defeated The Master and his pupils within their dojo), Paint Manipulation which includes: Conceptual Manipulation (Paint makes up everything, anyone in Mario can remove paint by attacking), Life Manipulation & Death Manipulation (Paint is all of life, and removal of it can cause a person or object to have no life within, having their concept of life be removed), Blood Manipulation (Paint makes up all of blood within someone, removing it is the same as removing their blood), Mind Manipulation & Memory Manipulation (Paint makes up the mind, as paint beings can directly speak to your mind by coloring your thoughts. Loss of paint can also remove your mind and memories), Spatial Manipulation (Paint makes up all of space. Removing it makes space as if it was solid), Metaphysics Manipulation (Soul Manipulation; Paint makes up souls and ghosts. Removing it is the equivalent of destroying your soul), Empathic Manipulation (Paint makes up all emotions. Removing it would mean the removal of emotion), Power Nullification (Paint makes up the ability to use powers. Removing it would mean the removal of using powers).
