'''Parabones''' are winged variants of [[Dry Bones]] and undead variants of [[Koopa Paratroopa]]s. Like Dry Bones, they collapse when attacked and reanimate themselves moments later, though unlike Koopa Paratroopas, they usually do not lose their wings when stomped. They are the first and thus far only flying derived species of [[Koopa Troopa]] to appear in a 3D ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' platformer.

==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario 3D World'' / ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''====
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 [[Nintendo Switch]] port, ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]''.

====''Super Mario Maker'' series====
Parabones can be created in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', ''[[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'' by sticking wings to any [[Dry Bones]], though like other enemies with wings attached to them, they are still referred to as the base enemy. While equipped with wings, they operate in the same manner as a red Koopa Paratroopa, no longer chasing [[Mario]] and flying in a vertical pattern; in the ''[[Super Mario World]]'' game style, they also throw bones. 

Unlike in ''Super Mario 3D World'', Parabones are immune to and can even be placed in lava, and stomping on one removes its wings permanently, like Koopa Paratroopas–however, if one is given a [[Super Mushroom]] or otherwise enlarged to become a Big Parabones, it will only lose its wings after being crumbled.

====''Super Mario Odyssey''====
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]], though not before removing their hat. Parabones reprise their behavior from ''Super Mario 3D World'', though a crumbled Parabones has stars swirling over its head as though it were released from a capture. Cappy can capture a crumbled Parabones or a living Parabones, the former of which makes it reassemble immediately. As a Parabones, Mario can fly by pressing {{button|switch|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 the Parabones's height above the highest platform he has landed on. The maximum achievable height is remembered until the Parabones despawns, even if Mario releases the Parabones and captures it again. A Parabones can fly all the way to the boundaries of a map. The skull on the Caveman Headwear is stated to come from a Parabones.

===''Mario Tennis Aces''===
A Parabones acts as the referee of the [[Inferno Island]] court in ''[[Mario Tennis Aces]]''.

===''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey''===
Parabones appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'' as enemies and recruitable allies in the ''[[Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'' mode, thus making their ''Mario & Luigi'' series debut. They are flying troopers, and are strong against [[Hammer Bro]]s, [[Fire Bro]]s, [[Boomerang Bro]]s, and [[Ice Bro]]s.

===''Skylanders: SuperChargers''===
In ''[[Skylanders: SuperChargers]]'', Parabones appear as assistants to [[Bowser|Hammer Slam Bowser]], but only after the player took the Koopa Commander upgrade path and have purchased the Molten Bones Soul Gem upgrade. After he activates his Molten Monster form, he can attack one of his [[Koopa Paratroopa]]s and turn them into Molten Parabones, which tend to do more damage and have more health than regular Paratroopas.

===Unused appearances===
====''Paper Mario: The Origami King''====
Although Parabones do not appear physically in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', concept art in [[Musée Champignon]] shows an origami Parabones. Additionally, their name is present in an [[List of Paper Mario: The Origami King pre-release and unused content|unused string]] in the game's data.
