Fuzzy, Paper Mario

Fuzzies, also called Fuzzles[1], are small, black-furred parasitic creatures capable of sucking away enemies' health with a bite. They possess two strabismus eyes and large teeth. Despite displaying some level of intelligence and the ability to speak, Fuzzies are, for the most part, wild and uncivilized beings. Fuzzies have the ability to secrete webbing-like strands from their bodies, though this ability has largely been phased out in modern times.

History

Super Mario series

Super Mario World

Two Fuzzies from Super Mario World.

Fuzzies first appeared in Super Mario World as particularly rare enemies that can't be defeated, found circling the wire-like constructs floating in midair or blocks. Fuzzies would not directly attack Mario or Luigi and would only hit them if they got in their way. The ones circling around blocks could be defeated, either by Yoshi or by tossing a Koopa Shell at them.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii

Fuzzies, along with bigger versions called Mega Fuzzies, reappear in the game New Super Mario Bros. Wii where they are found in Worlds 7 and 9. They act the same way as they did in Super Mario World. Unlike in Super Mario World though, they can be defeated by being frozen and shattering the block of ice they're trapped in or blasting them with fireballs as Fire Mario. Fuzzies can also be found on wires and are mostly in sky levels. They are usually found in big groups and they also do flip when they jump off the wire and onto another.

Super Mario Galaxy 2

Fuzzies appear in Super Mario Galaxy 2. They first appear in the Honeybloom Galaxy, moving up and down the orange poles that Mario or Luigi can climb. Fuzzies are also found in the Flipsville Galaxy where they can be defeated with a Spin Drill. They look very similar to how they did in New Super Mario Bros. Wii, though they strangely leave behind black smoke clouds as they move.

A species that behaves like Fuzzies by latching onto characters and draining their HP are known as Slurples. Slurples also appear in Super Mario Galaxy 2, as well as its prequel, Super Mario Galaxy.

Super Mario 3D Land

Fuzzies later appear in Super Mario 3D Land. Mario must avoid them on tightropes in this game. They are invincible unless Mario (or Luigi) touches them while invincible.

New Super Mario Bros. 2

Fuzzies appear in New Super Mario Bros. 2, acting the same way as in New Super Mario Bros. Wii. They can be defeated by shooting them with a fireball.

Super Mario Adventures

In Super Mario Adventures, a Fuzzy makes a small appearance, being among the monsters sent by Bowser to attack Princess Toadstool's Castle.

Paper Mario series

Paper Mario

Fuzzies make a return appearance in Paper Mario, which reveals a large group of them inhabit the woods behind Koopa Village. Fuzzies attack as "vampires" in this series as they attack by draining HP from Mario. When Mario first reaches Koopa Village, he will find it under attack by a horde of Fuzzies who are harassing the Koopa Troopa inhabitants of the village. After Mario defeats the apparent leader of the Fuzzies, who had stolen the Shell of Kooper, after the battle, the Fuzzies promised to behave and stop attacking the village, at least, for a while. A Fuzzy can also be fought in Shy Guys Toy Box if Princess Peach tells Bowser that a Fuzzy is one of Mario's worst fears, Kammy Koopa will than warp one (possibly the leader face earlier in the game) into the Toy Box to guard a Treasure Chest and defeat Mario, However by this point in the game the Player should have no trouble defeating it.

Two subspecies also appear: The Forest Fuzzies of Forever Forest and the Jungle Fuzzies of Lavalava Island.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

The Fuzz fighting team Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.

In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door Fuzzies first appear in Shhwonk Fortress and later, one appears as a member of the Fuzz fighting team in the Glitz Pit. They also appear in the first floors of the Pit of 100 Trials. They attack the same ways as they did in the previous games. The Forest and Island Fuzzies from the previous games are replaced by the functionally identical Green Fuzzy and Flower Fuzzy.

Super Paper Mario

In Super Paper Mario, Fuzzies appear as enemies on the Planet Blobule, where unlike their previous appearances, instead of draining HP they attack other creatures by bouncing into them. The most dangerous type of Fuzzy called a Dark Fuzzy is introduced in this game.

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga

Fuzzies and a Fuzzbush in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga.

Fuzzies appeared in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga as projectiles that were spawned by the Fuzzbush, suggesting a possible relation. Unlike other Fuzzies, these could poison Mario or Luigi. Since they were just projectiles, they weren't technically enemies in this game.
