Hoot,[1] or the Owl,[2] is a friendly owl in Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS.

History

Super Mario 64 / Super Mario 64 DS

In Super Mario 64, Hoot roosts in the sole tree of Whomp's Fortress. When Mario climbs the tree, Hoot complains that Mario woke him up when it is still during the day, but he then offers to give Mario a ride to the top of the fortress. If the player wants Mario to ride Hoot, they should press and hold the A Button button (B Button in the DS remake) on the controller. If the player wants Mario to let go, they should simply let go of the A Button/B Button button, and Hoot then returns near his tree (and remains awake for the rest of the mission). If Mario hangs on to Hoot for too long, Hoot complains that Mario's weight is making it difficult for him to continue carrying him. He then drops Mario, telling him to "lay off the pasta," and returns near his tree. Depending on where in the sky Mario is, Hoot's action of letting him go could cause Mario to lose a life.

Hoot appears in Whomp's Fortress only during missions 3–6 (or missions 3–7 in the remake). If Mario is in this course during missions 1–2 and climbs Hoot's tree, Hoot does not appear.

Hoot has a greater presence in Super Mario 64 DS. In addition to Whomp's Fortress, he appears on Cool, Cool Mountain during all missions; in Snowman's Land and on Tall, Tall Mountain during all but the first mission; and on the huge part of Tiny-Huge Island during all but the first two missions. All playable characters are capable of hanging from his talons.

Mario Party series

Two owls resembling Hoot appear in Mario Party 3 on the board Woody Woods; one is mid-flight, and the other is sleeping within a tree.

Hoot appears as an unlucky gambler in Mario Party Advance. Hoot tells the player that he has a losing streak at the Jungle Game Hut, and he needs the player to help him. Once the player wins, the reward is the minigame Stop 'Em. The ending states that he cannot stop shaking his head.

Media

Although the music does not change when the player flies with Hoot in Super Mario 64, in Super Mario 64 DS, a variation of the Wing Cap/Vanish Cap theme is played.
