===="Advice From The Star Spirits" Entry====
'''Change your battle tactics to suit your enemey.'''  Mario, you must use your head rather than relying on brute strength to outdo your enemy.  Think about the opponent, then choose the right weapon.  Take [[Koopa]]s, for example.  If you jump on a Koopa, it will flip over and be unable to move for a while.  Its defensive power will drop, and you'll be able to do a lot of damage. 
 
It's also common sence not to jump on an enemy that has spikes on its head.  Just try to find the most effective technique for each enemy.  Incidentally, Mario, you can increase your strength all the way up to level 27.
''If you jump on a Koopa to flip it over, your next attack will do a lot of damage.''  ''You can't damage flaming enemies by jumping on them.  Try equipping a badge that protects you from flames.''

Skolar, Paper Mario

Skolar is one of the seven Star Spirits in Paper Mario. His name is a reference to the word "scholar", and, as his namesake suggests, he studies a lot. He has a brown mustache and wears glasses.

Skolar is the Star Spirit Tubba Blubba guards in Chapter 3: The "Invincible" Tubba Blubba. However, he escapes from Tubba Blubba's Castle. While searching for a way out of the Forever Forest, he is captured by the Boos of Boo Mansion, led by Lady Bow. Bow promises to set Skolar free after Mario and his friends defeat Tubba Blubba.

When Mario defeats Tubba Blubba and Skolar is freed, he gives Mario the ability to use the Star Storm move. When Star Storm is used, Skolar appears in battle. He makes stars rain down on enemies from above, causing seven points of damage to each one. This is similar to the Shooting Star. The move costs two Star Power. He later appears along with the rest of the Star Spirits in Star Haven when they give Mario the Star Beam.

His description is "Like most scholars, he's always studying. His power, Star Storm, strikes all enemies."

In Mario Party 5, Skolar is the guide of Super Duel Mode. He makes a cameo appearance in Mario Party: The Top 100 as a collectible item.
