KOOPA QUAD
Origins: Chapter 2
Perry Piranha
Bowser has a long history of employing piranha plants and other plantlike creatures. Like most of the inhabitants of the lowlands, Piranha Plants can be found anywhere around living. They don't have an official homeland but if one such place can be classified, it would be the Pipe Land, otherwise known as the Pipe Maze. Other than local Toads and Humans, 95 percent of the true inhabitants are piranha plants. Lowlands are filled with strange and mysterious pipe network and it is a dominant sight in Pipe Land, hence the name. Aside from regular pipes in towns and communities, no one knows who build them, what is their purpose and for what. Some pipes, namely Warp Pipes, have been discovered as a means of transport into different places and areas around the lowlands. Some of them even lead to other cities like the fabled Vyydos City in the far north or the distant Yoshi Island across the sea, and some are rumored to lead into entirely different worlds. However, finding a Warp pipe is hard and often results in a wild goose change, since most pipes are just harmless objects that dominate the landscape by jutting through the ground or from the side of ridges and even underwater. Although not harmless completely, since Piranha Plants are known to make homes in pipes. Piranha Plants come in many varied forms and sizes. The most regular and common Piranha Plant looks exactly as its namesake; a Plant like head with a large mouth with sharp teeth. They don't have visible eyes, if any, and are known to eat who ever foolish enough to come too close to the pipes. Their heads are unusually red colored with white dots and their stalks are traditionally plant green and sport usually two sepals. There are also been reported of green colored Piranha Plants as well, and some develop special glands in their mouths that produce fire and spit fireballs, some may uproot themselves and sue their roots to walk and there has also been reports of gigantic piranha plants that are rumored to eat a cow in one bite.
Mostly Piranha Plants live out as carnivorous plants that may or may not become more sentient than they are. Some develop personalities and may even become a part of the society like a regular sentient being as it is with the case of Perry.
Perrineau Piranha or "Perry", to his friends, became sentient many years ago prior to Musrhoom-Koopa wars. He developed into a wisecracking, dry witted yet a friend caring plant with a tendency of garnering. Like many Piranha Plants like him, Bowser employed them into his army as scouts and spies for plants can hide anywhere and remain unseen for many hours, even days, that is if an access for groundwater is possible. Bowser also employed some Plants to do and maintain traps and surveillance which they manage to do pretty well, even if the Dark Land is not the most habitable place for Piranha Plants if not including the pipes to dwell. Perry himself excelled on intelligence gathering and was talented at regenerating and manipulating his roots. Perry, like plants, is asexual, despite having a male personality and a name which is usually a result of a random development but may mostly have something to do with people in which the plant was present prior to its sentientation. Plants with female names and personalities are also around.
Perry met with his future colleges, Kelvin, Bricks and Bombie, when the war erupted against Mushroom Kingdom. They where assign into the same unit and spend many days fighting and honing their friendship. Little did Perry know that he, together with his friends, would become something very important in the country they are currently warring...?
