'''Perry''' is a supporting character in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]''. He is a magical talking parasol who aids [[Princess Peach]] throughout the game using various abilities, such as being able to destroy blocks, and pick up and eat enemies. He is also able to take on multiple different forms which allow Peach to reach different areas and perform different moves. His name comes from the word "Parasol".
==History==
===Early life===
In ''Super Princess Peach'', Perry's story is revealed through his dreams. Perry found himself on a mountain as a young  boy, who did not know who he was, but had strange powers that allowed him to survive on the mountain. He met an old man, who took him home to protect him, and adopted him when he found out Perry had nowhere to go. They enjoyed each other's company, however, one day, when out for a walk, they were confronted by two mysterious figures. They demanded that the old man should hand Perry over, as they knew about his powers. The old man tried to protect Perry, but one of the figures used magic against them, and turned Perry into an umbrella. The pair were separated, however Perry managed to escape from the figures and attract the attention of a traveller, who took him to their shop. He remained in the shop for a while, until [[Toadsworth]] visited the shop and felt Perry's power, and then bought him. At the start of the game, when [[Bowser]]'s [[Koopa Troop]] stole the [[Vibe Scepter]] and used its power to kidnap [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], and some of the Toads, Toadsworth gave Perry to Princess Peach to be her partner in rescuing them from Bowser's clutches. At the end of Perry's completed backstory dream after Luigi is rescued from [[Giant Kamek]], it is revealed that Perry would like to reunite with the old man he befriended before meeting Peach and Toadsworth, but wants to stay with Peach for a while until Bowser is defeated and Mario is rescued. It is implied that at the end of the game once the two aforementioned tasks are completed, Princess Peach and Perry set off together to find the old man and reunite him with Perry, to reward the latter for aiding Peach in her own mission throughout the whole game.


===''Super Princess Peach''===
[[Image:Perry.jpg|thumb|'''Perry''', the parasol partner from ''Super Princess Peach''.]]
[[File:SPP-Perry Sprite.png|frame|left|A sprite of Perry from ''Super Princess Peach''.]]
'''Perry''' is [[Princess Peach|Princess Peach's]] magical, talking parasol in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', who is used to attack members of the [[Koopa Troop]] on her way to rescue the Mario Bros. Throughout the game, Perry's past is revealed in the umbrella's dreams. It seems that he was originally a [[Human]] (or perhaps a [[Toad (species)|Toad]]), and was turned into an umbrella by two strange figure's magic.
In the opening of ''Super Princess Peach'', Toadsworth gives Perry to [[Princess Peach]] to take with her to help rescue [[Mario]], telling her that he is no ordinary umbrella. Once opened, Perry introduces himself, telling Peach that he is great at beating bad guys and that he knows everything about [[Vibe Island]]. Perry appears at various times on the DS's top screen to provide hints and instructions, such as on the file select screen. He also appears in [[Puzzle Piece (Super Princess Peach)|Puzzle E: Beach]] with  Peach.


In the game, Perry can be used to break blocks, help Peach float, pick up and throw items and enemies, defeat enemies, eat enemies to replenish a portion of the [[Vibe Gauge]], and assume a number of other different forms. Some of these forms are obtainable freely, while others must be purchased for varying amounts of [[Coin]]s at the shop. If Peach stands idle, Peach will check underneath Perry's canopy, he will trap her head and torso under his canopy, and Peach tries to wriggle herself out of Perry.
==History==
 
Once, Perry, not knowing who he was, got woken by a kindly old man, who then took him in. Eventually, Perry and his adopted "Grandfather" were interrupted by two figures, which are never shown but for their outlines. They announced that the boy had strange powers, and they must take him away. When the two refused, the figures turned Perry into an umbrella, but he was able to escape their grasp and was picked up by a merchant. He was eventually sold to [[Toadsworth]], who gives Perry to [[Princess Peach]] as she sets out after Bowser kidnaps [[Mario]], [[Luigi]] and some [[Toad (species)|Toads]].
[[Message Block]]s designed similarly to Perry also appear in the game, and when hit will prompt Perry to give the player various hints and instructions about nearby game elements and moves.
 
After Peach defeats Bowser at the end of the game, she uses Perry to swat him away from [[Bowser's Villa|his villa]]. Afterward, Perry picks the lock to Mario's cell with his handle to free Mario, allowing him to share a joyful reunion with Peach.  


Perry also stars in the promotional tie-in browser game ''[[Parasol Fall|Super Princess Peach -- Parasol Fall]]''.
After Perry's last dream, he wakes up exclaiming that "Those two guys that kidnapped Grandpa are evil! Bowser is evil! Let's get 'im!" He then whispers to "Grandfather", telling him that he has decided to stay with the Princess for awhile, and that he wonders when they will be reunited.


===''Super Mario-kun''===
Sadly, the ending of the game offers no further clues to his origin. He was not seen again, so it is unknown whether he is still an umbrella in Peach's possession.
[[File:SuperMarioKun Volume 37 Perry.jpg|thumb|Perry's appearance in ''Super Mario-kun''.]]
Perry makes an appearance in volume 37 of the ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'' manga. Here, he appears in the ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'' arc, where [[Professor E. Gadd]] lends [[Baby Peach]] Perry to defeat the [[Shroobsworth]] and [[Intern Shroob]] attacking Toadsworth and [[Toadsworth the Younger|his younger self]].


===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
==Abilities==
In the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]], there are a few collectible items of Perry. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', he appears as both a [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]] and a [[Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|sticker]], and Perry is also seen being held by Peach in a sticker showing her artwork from ''Super Princess Peach''. Perry also appears as a [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', and reduces the fall speed of fighters after jumping. He is also mentioned in one of Peach's [[smashwiki:List of tips (SSBU)/Fighters#Peach|tips]].
Perry has many forms that Peach can use in her quest against Bowser. Some of them can be obtained for free, but others must be purchased at the store. Perry's forms are:


Perry's trophy textures in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' are named after Peach's textures, and Peach's parasol model contains his Japanese name, Kassā. These details suggest a possibility that Princess Peach's [[Peach Parasol (move)|Peach Parasol]] move was originally planned to feature Perry.
*[[Bowlbrella]] - Perry acts as a boat to ferry Peach across water.
 
*[[Chargebrella]] - This form allows Peach to use Perry to destroy certain enemies and flip switches.
===Other appearances===
[[File:Densetsu no Stafy 4 Princess and Umbrella.png|thumb|left]]
In ''[[starfywiki:Densetsu no Starfy 4|Densetsu no Stafy 4]]'', Perry appears as a part of a costume based on Princess Peach for [[Starfy|Stafy]]'s sister [[starfywiki:Starly|Stapy]], with the addition of a pink bow tied around his handle.
 
Perry is alluded to in the [[Wii]] version of ''[[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Wii)|Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games]]'', where one of the questions in the [[Heroines Quiz!]] asks whether Peach ever saved Mario and [[Toad]], with [[Omochao]] later explaining that she did so with the help of a "magic parasol."
