| '''Heronicus''' is a character in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'' who lives in [[Flipside]] in the houses behind [[Saffron]]'s restaurant. He is a retired explorer who "knows much about other lands", with certain smells bringing back memories. After each chapter a different smell brings back a memory of the world most recently visited by the heroes. | |

| On a shelf in Heronicus' home, there is the vase from [[Merlee's Mansion#Chapter 2-3: Breaking the Bank|Chapter 2-3]], a [[Meowmaid]]-like relic, and a model of the two stone heads found in [[Planet Blobule|Chapter 4-2]]; atop his bookshelf, a dark rock from [[Outer Space]], a totem pole from [[Downtown of Crag]] and a torch holder from [[The Underwhere]] can also be found. Heronicus additionally has a picture that may possibly depict a blue [[Squarp hole]], and [[Flip]]ping in his home reveals a picture of a sandy, dune-filled expanse resembling [[Yold Desert]] (Curiously, this picture actually shows the background Yold Desert possessed in the [[list of Super Paper Mario pre-release and unused content|pre-release version]] of ''Super Paper Mario'').
| | It is mentioned in [[Flopside]] that he had a partner who lived in the house parallel to Heronicus', whose "game ended tragically". The treasure maps that they collected can be bought from [[Flamm]] in the underground of [[Flopside]]. |

| Heronicus also appears briefly at the beginning of Chapter 6-1. After entering the room with [[List of Sammer Guys#Jade Blooper|Jade Blooper]], the first [[Sammer Guy]], Heronicus runs away and exits, apparently having lost to him. His name is also seen in the [[Flipside Arcade]], where he holds the high scores of 550000 and 80000 in [[Mansion Patrol]], and 100,0000 in [[Hammer Whacker]]. | | Heronicus also appears briefly at the beginning of Chapter 6, fleeing from the [[Sammer Guy]]s. |

|
| After the game is beaten, Heronicus tells the player that he spent a part of his life exploring to find a "[[List of implied characters#Legendary Pixl|legendary Pixl]]", with a partner. When they found this Pixl, there was a rock slide; Heronicus leaped into action and saved his partner, but the legendary Pixl was lost during the incident. This is the reason Heronicus stopped exploring. It is mentioned in [[Flopside]] by [[Hatch]] outside of the Flopside version of Heronicus's house that the person who lived there (presumably Heronicus's Flopside version) also went exploring for a legendary Pixl. Again, there was also a rock slide, but instead of saving his partner, he saved the Pixl instead. It is unknown where the Flopside Heronicus went, but the Pixl he saved was [[Piccolo]], who is then found inside the house.
| | ==Trivia== |
| | | *On a shelf in Heronicus's home, one can find the vase from [[Merlee's Mansion#Chapter 2-3: Breaking the Bank|Chapter 2-3]], a [[Meowmaid]]-like relic, and a model of the two stone heads found in [[Planet Blobule|Chapter 4-2]]; atop his bookshelf, a dark rock from [[Outer Space]] can also be found alongside other items of unknown origin. Heronicus additionally has a picture that may possibly depict [[The Void]], and [[Dimension Flip|flipping]] in his home reveals another picture of a sandy, dune-filled expanse resembling [[Yold Desert]]. (Curiously, this picture actually shows the background Yold Desert possessed in the [[Beta Elements|beta version]] of ''Super Paper Mario''.) |
| ==Tattle==
| | *Heronicus is rather good at the games at the [[Flipside Arcade]]. He has a high scores of 550000 and 80000 in Mansion Patrol, and 1000000 in Hammer Whacker. |
| *"''That's Heronicus... He was once an explorer... He knows much about other lands... He's since retired from exploration, but certain smells bring back memories...''"
