'''Dryites''' are a race of [[Toad (species)|Toads]] that live at the [[Dry Dry Outpost]] in the game ''[[Paper Mario]]''. They look the same as other Toads, except that they wear turbans and desert clothing instead of mushroom caps and vests due to the desert setting's sands that stings their skin. The dryites are seen living alongside some [[Little Mouser|Little Mousers]] called [[Nomadimouse|Nomadimice]], wearing blue (rare), green (most common), swamp green (only one), or yellow (uncommon) turbans, similar to how Toads have different colored spot patterns. (If Toads' mushroom caps are to be thought of as heads, than it can be said that Dryites actually wear their turbans over their caps; however, [[Goombario]] states that their turbans are the reason for their large heads, suggesting that Dryites do indeed lack mushroom caps.) [[Mario]] can talk to the Dryites throughout his adventure to receive tips and hints. Goombario once claimed to be near-sure that all Dryites were somehow adults and one of [[Kolorado]]'s [[Koopa Troopa|Koopa]] co-workers claimed that the citizens of Dry Dry Outpost were all relatives of [[Dry Dry Desert]]'s [[Dry Dry Kingdom|ancient dwellers]], indicating that Dryites and [[Nomadimouse|Nomadimice]] (and perhaps other characters, such as [[Merlee]]) are descendants of the caretakers of places such as [[Dry Dry Ruins]].

Dryites are a race of Toads that live alongside Nomadimice at Dry Dry Outpost in the game Paper Mario. One can also be found at the train station at Mt. Rugged. Dryites look the same as other Toads, except that they wear orange (instead of red), blue, green, or chartreuse tagelmusts and desert clothing instead of mushroom caps and vests. Mario can talk to the Dryites throughout his adventure to receive tips and hints. One of Kolorado's assistants states that the people of Dry Dry Outpost are descendants of the makers of Dry Dry Ruins.

At the beginning of the game, a green Dryite is invited to the party at Peach's Castle. He says that he had a chance to speak with Princess Peach and plans to tell everyone about it when he returns to Dry Dry Outpost. In Chapter 8, long after Bowser's takeover of the castle, the Dryite is seen in a cell in Bowser's Castle and calls the party ridiculous. At the end of the game, two green Dryites are seen at the new party celebrating Bowser's defeat, but it is unclear from their dialogue if either of them was the one imprisoned earlier.

One of the Dryites is a participant of the Dojo in Toad Town, having fought his way to a Second-Degree Card.
