| '''Starlow''' (also known by the pseudonym '''Chippy''' by [[Bowser]] when she is keeping a low profile in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Brothership]]'') is a major character in the [[Mario & Luigi (series)|''Mario & Luigi'' series]], debuting in ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story''.

| |

| |
| [[File:CaughtStarlowBIS.PNG|100px|left|thumb|Starlow caught by an amoeba]]
| |
| In ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'' and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', Starlow is sent to [[Princess Peach]]'s meeting as a representative of the Star Sprites. She believes that the cause of the [[blorbs]] was from [[List of implied items#Blorb Mushroom|Blorb Mushroom]]s sold by [[Fawful|a man in a white cloak]]. Later, she is inhaled into Bowser, along with Mario, Luigi, and other citizens of the [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. When Mario finds her, she is trapped inside an amoeba. She remarks on how the amoeba is tickling her with rage. She has the same purpose as Stuffwell does in ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'': helping Mario and Luigi. Also like Stuffwell, she holds the Mario Bros.' items and equipment. However, the difference between Stuffwell and Starlow is that she has a demo version of all the abilities learned throughout the game. She can combine her powers with Princess Peach to telekinetically control characters, such as Bowser, and also help Mario and Luigi to perform certain [[Action Command]]s. Starlow often talks to Bowser from inside [[Bowser's body|his body]] to give him information and uses Chippy as her name for him, not wanting him to know that she is helping the Mario Bros. She also helps Mario and Luigi in their encounter with Bowser. She can also save the player from nearly unavoidable attacks from three of the game's bosses—Bowser, the [[Dark Star]], and the [[Dark Star Core]]— by having Mario and Luigi grab her feet so she can fly up to the top screen.
| |
|
| |
| Starlow appears to have negative feelings towards Luigi, and this negativity towards him sometimes generates humorous results, such as when Starlow angrily knocks Luigi into [[Alpha Kretin]] after he suggests that she fight it alongside Mario rather than him. She demonstrates this only when Luigi is acting particularly cowardly. Also at the cryogenic chamber at [[Bowser's Castle]], she teases him by saying that he supported Mario by crying in the events of the previous game. However, she nonetheless cares about him, recognizes his courage, and even was surprised when Mario tells her it was actually Luigi (as a baby) who saved the day.
| |
|
| |
| If the Mario Bros. travel to Bowser's Castle and engage in the optional boss fight against the [[Shroob]]s, Starlow expresses curiosity on how they handled this fight as babies. She immediately expresses confidence that Mario was the one who came out on top overall. This somewhat upsets Luigi and Mario explains that Luigi did just as much as himself, and actually saved the day in the end. This refers to when, at the end of ''Partners in Time'', Baby Luigi cried while on a Shroob Mushroom that used to be Baby Bowser. This restored Baby Bowser, leading to the revelation that baby tears can defeat the Shroobs. It is unclear how Starlow felt hearing this and whether this gave her more confidence in Luigi's abilities or if she still lacks confidence in him based on his prior cowardly actions.
| |
|
| |
| At the end of the game, when Bowser hears Starlow's voice, he easily recognizes her as Chippy and gets furious, deciding to pick a fight with the Mario Bros. and her. Once [[Bowser's Castle#Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story / Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey|Bowser's Castle]] and [[Peach's Castle#Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story / Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey|Peach's Castle]] are remodeled, Starlow and [[Birdley]] deliver a present to Bowser from Peach as a thanks for all he did, and they have a small chat, ending with Starlow teasing him and him yelling at her to leave his castle, which she does.
| |
|
| |
| In ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey'', Starlow makes an appearance with Mario and Luigi in the ''Bowser Jr.'s Journey'' mode, where she tells [[Bowser Jr.]] that Bowser has been [[Super Bowser|working very hard]].
| |
|
| |
| ====''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team''====
| |
| {{quote|First the [[Luiginary Stache Tree|stache]], now the [[Sneeze Wind|nose]]?! What're [[Luigi|you]], five years old?!|Starlow|Mario & Luigi: Dream Team}}
| |
| Starlow returns in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]''. She was invited to [[Pi'illo Island]] to represent the Star Sprites. Like in the previous game, she acts as Mario and [[Luigi]]'s partner and guide. She also causes Luigi's in-dream reactions by pulling and tapping on various parts of his face and moving his hand towards buttons. Her looking down on Luigi remains, and Luiginary Works are discovered when she pulls on Luigi's mustache because she is mad at him for causing all the trouble. However, chemistry develops between the two as the game progresses.
| |
|
| |
| When Bowser is confronted at the top of [[Neo Bowser Castle]] at the very end of the game, together with Peach under [[Prince Dreambert]]'s command, Starlow destroys the [[Dream Stone]], only for its broken shards to be inhaled by Bowser, leading to his transformation into [[Dreamy Bowser]].
| |
|
| |
| ====''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam''====
| |
| [[File:StarlowPaperJam.gif|frame]]
| |
| Starlow reappears in the ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' and ''Mario & Luigi'' series crossover, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]''. She is the only ''Mario & Luigi''-exclusive character to appear in the game. Like in the previous games, she still acts as the brothers' guide. In this game, however, she is the one who gives out the fighting tutorial, unlike in the predecessors where it was [[Toadsworth]] instead. Starlow is also shown to be powerful when she attacks [[Larry]] and [[Ludwig]] in [[Twinsy Tropics Dungeon]] using her "Supernova Sparkle". She is even able to hold onto ledges using her teeth, when [[Kamek]] was trying to blow them away, but she then gets distracted when Kamek flatters her for her big shiny teeth, causing her, Paper Mario, the bros, and the princesses to get blown away. In the mission Bombs Away, Starlow can accidentally be used as a projectile whenever she forgets to bring a bomb for the trio to use.
| |
|
| |
| ====''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions''====
| |
| Starlow appears in the ''Minion Quest'' portion of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]''. She appears during the [[Gwarhar Lagoon]] segment and gets kidnapped at one point by [[Hermie III]]. She also claims that she wants to enter the "cute contest," which she, [[Spangle]], and two [[Starkiss]]es end up winning by default thanks largely to [[Wendy|Wendy O. Koopa]] abdicating the title after being freed from being brainwashed. She is also a secret Flying unit in ''Minion Quest'', unlocked by completing [[Showdown Time!!]], starting off at level 34. Starlow's special skill, Dive Attack, allows her to dive into an opponent from the air. She has a high amount of speed, and is strong against [[Mechawful|Mecha-Fawfuls]] as well as [[Mechakoopa|Mechakoopas]] and [[Bob-omb|Bob-ombs]]. This has been the only game where she appears not working alongside Mario and Luigi.
| |
|
| |
| ====''Mario & Luigi: Brothership''====
| |
| Starlow appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Brothership]]''.<ref>{{cite|author=Nintendo of America|date=October 10, 2024|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zF96tpchink|title=Mario & Luigi: Brothership – Overview Trailer – Nintendo Switch|publisher=YouTube|language=English|accessdate=October 10, 2024}}</ref> Unlike in her first three appearances, she does not join Mario and Luigi on their adventure, as that role is replaced by [[Snoutlet]]. She instead accompanies Peach, and later, the [[IDLE]] group. She is first discovered on [[Concordia]] on [[Shipshape Island]]'s beach by a group of [[Concordian]]s who mistake her for a star. Later, she meets Bowser on [[Wayaway Island]], where he refers to her as Chippy, the alias she used in ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story''. She also mentions that her current appearance is only temporary and she is actually an "eight-headed beauty;" this is likely a reference to {{wp|angel}}s often being described in antiquity as extremely bizarre-looking beings that take more familiar forms when appearing before humans.
| |
|
| |
| ===''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''===
| |
| Starlow appears as a [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.
| |
|
| |
| ==General information==
| |
| ===Personality===
| |
| Starlow is generally a cheerful and kind character with a few perky traits to her. She is shown to get along with most people, even if she is not acquainted with them. She is very intelligent, often shown through the help and advice she gives Mario and Luigi through their adventures, as well as Bowser during ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'', and also helps the Bros. by storing items and gear for them. However, she does have a stubborn side to her and can get easily annoyed by certain characters, specifically Bowser and Luigi. Her stubbornness does not get in the way of having good relations with others, another trait mainly shown through her relationship with Luigi. ''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam'' shows off a more arrogant side to her, going as far as to view herself as the leader of the group of heroes. In general, Starlow is portrayed as a sweet and kind character with a few feisty traits to her.
| |
|
| |
| ===Powers and abilities===
| |
| Starlow has the ability to float, which she uses to move around freely in midair. She can also open up the [[star menu]], which is similar to [[Stuffwell]] from ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'', though it has demos of the special attacks that Mario and Luigi unlocked. In ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'', Starlow is shown to be quite strong, as in [[Bowser|three]] [[Dark Star|boss]] [[Dark Star Core|battles]], she could carry both Mario Bros. easily.
| |
|
| |
| When she teams up with Peach, Starlow can lift heavy objects using telekinesis and shoot a pink laser beam from her star.
| |
|
| |
| In ''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam'', Starlow attacks Larry and Ludwig with a move called Supernova Sparkle. The actual move is not seen, however, as she does it when everyone is inside a pipe.
| |
|
| |
| ===Relationships===
| |
| ====Friends====
| |
| Starlow admires Mario's bravery and treats him very kindly, although she does not hesitate to speak her mind if she needs to. Her relationship with Luigi starts out far colder in ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'', with her often expressing annoyance at his cowardice and focusing her attention on Mario. Even so, she acknowledges that he is a hero like his brother, and in ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team'', she is much more open with him, saying he looks cute when he sleeps and expressing genuine concern when his dreams seem to be troubling him. Starlow claims she is jealous of Luigi's ability to sleep. Her attitude towards Luigi remains similar in ''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam'' and ''Mario & Luigi: Brothership'', as she treats Luigi with more respect while still occasionally making fun of him.
| |
|
| |
| Starlow shares a very good friendship with Peach, with the two being very like-minded and even being able to produce powerful combo attacks together. Starlow holds a high amount of respect for the Princess, and puts her safety before anything else.
| |
|
| |
| Starlow gets along well with [[Prince Dreambert]], although his lapses in memory over key pieces of information cause her great frustration, leading her to even call him "Forgetbert" on occasion.
| |
|
| |
| ====Foes====
| |
| Starlow and Bowser's relationship is dominated by open hostility. She views him as a hotheaded monster and only works with him in ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'' out of necessity, even then knowing to hide her true identity in order to get him to cooperate. Calling herself "Chippy", Starlow directs Bowser from inside of him, but her bossy attitude irritates him as much as his stubbornness vexes her and the two bicker more often than not. Despite that, however, Bowser comes to think of Starlow as a reliable and useful ally and makes her one of his minions, but eventually becomes enraged when he learns the truth about her. In the remake's add-on story ''Bowser Jr.'s Journey'', she also has some animosity towards his son, especially after the latter's rude retort to her, although she does nonetheless encourage him with his journey and even praises his father slightly by telling him that he is "working hard" (implied to be referring to his [[Super Bowser]] form). In ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team'' the two are enemies once again, and aside from Bowser's comment that he "hates Starlow's voice", no reference is made to their past teamwork. For her part, Starlow views Bowser with disgust and feels that he should give up while he can. Despite all this, Starlow also shows some concern for Bowser, such as when she was worried after Bowser was flattened by [[Bowser's Castle|his own castle]], and felt sorry for him when he was trapped inside his safe. She also brings him a drumstick in ''Mario & Luigi: Brothership'' and checks in on his condition after he was hurt.

| *''"YELLO GOODBYE!"''
| | In ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'', Starlow is sent to Princess Peach's meeting as a representative of the star sprites. Starlow believes that the cause from [[The Blorbs]] was from Blorb Mushrooms sold by a [[Fawful|man in a gray cloak]]. Later, she is inhaled into [[Bowser]], along with Mario, Luigi, and other citizens of the Mushroom Kingdom. She has the same purpose as [[Stuffwell]] does in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'': helping [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]]. Also like Stuffwell, she holds the Mario Bros. items and equipment. However, the difference between Stuffwell and Starlow is that she has a demo version of all the abilities learned throughout the game. She can combine her powers with [[Princess Peach]] to levitate people, such as Bowser, and also help Mario and Luigi to perform certain action commands. Starlow often talks to Bowser from inside of him to give him information. Starlow uses Chippy as her name for Bowser, not wanting him to know that she is helping the Mario Bros. She also helps Mario and Luigi in their encounter with Bowser.

| |
|
| ===''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team''===
| | Starlow appears to have negative feelings towards [[Luigi]], and this negativity towards him sometimes generates humorous results, such as when Starlow angrily knocks Luigi into [[Alpha Kretin]] after Luigi suggests that Starlow fight it alongside Mario rather than him. The reason Starlow feels this way about Luigi is unclear, but it may have something to do with the boss battle with [[Scutlet]] inside Bowser's body, where one of Scutlet's attacks was throwing Starlow at one of the brothers to cause damage, which had to be countered with the brothers' [[Hammer]]s, after which Starlow would jump in anger while facing either the brother that countered the attack, or Scutlet itself if the attack was not countered. Assuming the [[player]] made successful counters to this attack with only Luigi, Starlow may resent Luigi for this reason. |

After that short moment, Bowser remembers what happened, and yells at Starlow to leave his castle. |

| *'''Prima Official Game Guide description''': ''When the Blorbs struck the Mushroom Kingdom, Princess Peach turned to the mystical Star Sprites for their assistance. The Star Sprites sent one of their youngest and brightest to help: Starlow. Starlow will accompany Mario and Luigi on their adventure, offering useful suggestions and advice whenever the heroes reach a crossraods. Hopefully they will heed that advice because the Star Sprites know more about the history (and mystery) of the Mushroom Kingdom than almost any of its inhabitants, save for Peach.''

| **In ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'', her sound effect is replaced with Peach's in the game's ending.
| | *Starlow's shape and color is similar to the [[Soul Bubble]] enemies from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''. |
| **In ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team'', Starlow is often erroneously given [[Britta]]'s dialogue sound effects. | | *When Starlow teases Luigi by saying he defeated the [[Shroob]]s with fierce crying, Mario said that Luigi actually defeated the Shroobs. Ironically Luigi's crying was the reason the Shroobs were destroyed. |

| | *Starlow's real name is only mentioned three times in the whole game: |
| *In ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'', she completely lacks her unique dialogue sound and is given a regular high-pitched voice instead. | | **At the beginning when she is introduced to the members of the conference. |
| *The ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] guide erroneously refers to Starlow as male. | | **When Mario and Luigi find Peach inside the [[Flab Zone]]. |
| *Starlow erroneously refers to herself as a representative of the [[Star Spirits]], rather than the Star Sprites, when she introduces herself to Paper Peach in the American English version of ''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam''. In the British English version and the rest of the American English version, Starlow correctly refers to herself as a representative of the Star Sprites. | | **In the ending cutscene after Bowser regurgitates everyone from his body. |
