'''Luvbi''' is a [[Nimbi]] in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. Her name is a combination of the words "love" and "Nimbi".
'''Luvbi''' is a [[Nimbi]] in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. Her name is a combination of the words "love" and "Nimbi".


Luvbi is believed to be the daughter of [[Queen Jaydes]] and [[Grambi]], but is actually a [[Pure Heart]]-turned-Nimbi. Following the defeat of [[Bonechill]], Luvbi assumes her true form in order to save all worlds. After all worlds are saved, Luvbi is recreated as a true Nimbi girl independent of the white Pure Heart.
Luvbi is believed to be the daughter of [[Queen Jaydes]] and [[Grambi]], but is actually a [[Pure Heart]]-turned-Nimbi. She runs away often to escape her overprotective parents. She does not know why her parents are so protective, but it is later revealed that it is due to her true nature; Jaydes and Grambi transformed her from the Pure Heart into a living form to protect it, as "no one would suspect" a Nimbi to be a Pure Heart. They admit that, over time, they grew to love Luvbi and felt as if she was their real daughter.
 
==Personality==
Luvbi speaks in [[Wikipedia:Early Modern English|Early Modern English]] (as do all Nimbis), although in the Japanese version, she talks very childishly instead of formally. Although Luvbi has a tendency to put others down, namely [[Mario]], [[Princess Peach]], [[Luigi]], and [[Tippi]], she is nevertheless good-natured and cares deeply for her parents.

==History==
===Background===
Prior to the events of the game, Luvbi was originally a [[Pure Heart]] that was guarded by [[Queen Jaydes]] and [[Grambi]]. They later transformed her from the Pure Heart into a living form to protect it, as "no one would suspect" a Nimbi to be a Pure Heart. Over time, they grew to love Luvbi and felt as if she was their real daughter, with Grambi never leaving Luvbi's bedside after she fell ill once. At times, Luvbi became annoyed at Jaydes and Grambi for their overprotective nature.

When Luvbi is first encountered, she is seen on top of a pipe in [[The Underwhere]], fantasizing about the day she will find her true love. Her moment is ruined by [[Mario]], however, who comes along and spots her, and she demands that he leave. Later, when Mario encounters Jaydes, she receives word that Luvbi is missing, and has Mario find her. After finding [[Luigi]], Mario asks him to help find Luvbi, which Luigi eagerly accepts. When encountering Luigi, Luvbi is annoyed by his presence, but asks him if he is the "prince for whom [she] pine[s]" and attempts to confirm this by asking him what her name is. If the player guesses correctly, then she is shocked that Luigi knows her name, but is not convinced that he is her true love. She then heads back to Jaydes.

Later, due to [[Bonechill]] having escaped his prison, Jaydes has Mario and Luigi escort Luvbi back to [[The Overthere]] for her. The entire time they are on [[Underwhere Road]], Luvbi acts as a guide for them; for the rest of the journey, she follows them. On the way, they encounter [[Bowser]], having been locked behind a door by Jaydes' [[D-Man|D-Men]]. After recovering Bowser and climbing most of the [[Overthere Stair]], they find [[Princess Peach|Peach]], who is sleeping because of the [[Golden Apple]] she ate. Luvbi states that the Golden Apple causes a person to sleep so deeply that they do not wake up for centuries. She initially says that there is no way to reverse the effects, but then remembers the way to reverse it: [[Black Apple|a taboo fruit]] that her father once spoke of. However, she has no idea where the fruit is and is mad at Peach for committing such an act of ignorance, so the heroes look by themselves.

They eventually give Peach the taboo fruit, which wakes her up instantly. After learning about the situation and meeting Luvbi, Peach rejoins the party, and helps them reach The Overthere. In The Overthere, Luvbi is informed by [[Whibbi]] that Grambi is being attacked in his palace. Concerned, Luvbi assists Mario and the other heroes in finding [[Rebbi]], [[Blubi]], and [[Yebbi]] to gain their orbs and rebuild the bridge leading to the king's shrine. Once inside, they immediately encounter an injured Grambi. They then set their sights on Bonechill. Luvbi threatens that he will not claim the Pure Heart, but Bonechill replies by telling Luvbi that she is the Pure Heart. Luvbi is in disbelief at first, but before she can ask her father if what he said is fact, she is forced to move Grambi to safety as the heroes engage Bonechill.

Upon defeating Bonechill, Luvbi and Grambi re-enter the room, though Jaydes interrupts Luvbi from receiving the answer to her question. Luvbi then asks if what Bonechill informed her of is true. Jaydes confirms what was stated to be true, and both explain to Luvbi about her being a form of defense for the Pure Heart. Luvbi is at first shocked about this, but begins to remember her time as a Pure Heart as her true form struggles to emerge due to the presence of the Heroes deserving of it. Luvbi rages at her "parents" about keeping her being a Pure Heart a secret the entire time she existed, and the three engage in an argument about all the times they have lied and kept secrets until Jaydes and Grambi ultimately tell her that they did love her as a daughter. Luvbi's temper dies down when she hears this, and she gives her parents a sincere goodbye as she permanently changes into her Pure Heart form, her last wish being for Mario and the heroes to save all worlds.

Even though she changes into the Pure Heart at the end of Chapter 7, Luvbi can be seen standing next to her parents in Grambi's shrine if the player chooses to return to [[The Overthere]] after saving all worlds, apparently recreated as a true Nimbi girl independent of the white Pure Heart (which can still be seen in its [[Flopside]] [[Heart Pillar]]) when the worlds are rebuilt at the end of the main story. When spoken to, she herself states she does not know how she exists as a Nimbi again.
