Character Lore 9: Starlow

Also known as 5-TAR-70-W, she is the latest star sprite model created to fight against evil and protect the Mario World. It is unknown where she resides since she does along with her superior authority that slowly drifts around in space.

Creation

Following the event of the Smith War and Geno's loss of feelings, Orion had to put him on standby since further interactions with livings would prove to be difficult. The Stars did make more star sprites but kept them simpler compared to Geno and did not use any scale at all. He could not understand Geno at all despite having created him. After years of trying to fix his first star sprite, he gave up and carried on with his other projects. He would send other star sprites to do small tasks on the Mario World and spy on people to learn secret informations. One day, a star sprite came back from the Mario World and told about a possible assassination attempt that would be made on the heroes of Amarioca during their trip to Obeanie. Orion used another scale to create a new model of star sprite to surpass Geno. This time, he took the time to create blueprints and study his new model he would name 5-TAR-70-W or Starlow. Her abilities differed significantly from Geno as she was unable to possess objects but still had unique abilities on her own.

First Mission

Orion gave Starlow her first mission: stop the assassination attempt on the heroes of Amarioca. Starlow had a prime directive to follow: to not show herself publicly. Starlow went to the Mario World and followed the ship her targets were on from afar. Alas, another ship ambushed the first ship and wrecked it. She saw the crew of the first ship falling into Obeanie. She immediately went checking on the crew from afar. The Mario brothers were fine and they found their princess. It took her some weeks to find the Koopa King. He was also fine and even had an egg. The heroes of Amarioca took another ship to leave Obeanie. The same ship tried to wreck it once again but Starlow decided to interfere even if it would mean the non-respect of her prime directive. She eventually got rid of the assassins and returned home to report of her success.

The Aftermath

Even if Starlow succeeded in her mission, Orion was not impressed. Not only did she almost fail her mission in the first place but she also did not respect her sole directive. The Stars doubted Starlow's reliability and kept her as an errand star. Starlow was disappointed, sad, and heartbroken. She resented herself for not having been up to her superior's expectations. While she was with the other star sprites, she met a lonely one. No one wanted to be with that one because it could not express any emotion. Its name was Geno. The latter, though speaking in a monotone voice, cheered up Starlow and told her not to feel down for her failures. Starlow secretly had a crush on him but she did not want to confess it. She thanked Geno for taking the time to comfort her. Starlow went through many errands and loved the Mario World but she always had to return to the Stars after her errands done. She wanted to stay on the Mario World and bring Geno with her. She had a dream she thought would never come true.

A New Mission

Orion chose to give Starlow a second chance when the latter received a worrying message from one of his friend about a threat that would destroy everything on the Mario World. The Stars organised a meeting with her, Geno, the heroes of Amarioca and a new figure, an alien. After the plan was told, Orion told Starlow to go see the rulers of the seven lands, along with the heroes of Amarioca, and tell them about the plan named Operation: Zombie Heartbreaker. He also instructed Starlow and Geno with the following directives:

-To not tell anyone about the drakoopas' history but to instead guide anyone to where they can find the answer;

-To not share any information regarding star sprites;

-To not make any friends or talk about family. If they are forced to speak about their family, they must tell them they have a standard family (father, mother, brother, sister).

With that, she was also given the plan of Operation Zombie Heartbreaker:

-The big day would happen as usual but Mario, Luigi, Peach and the koopalings would be unable to attend the meeting for different reasons and put to safety where the threat would be unable to captured;

-Starlow must meet the chosen individual, Larry, at the safety point, the Grassland dungeon, and guide him toward the mission. The chosen individual must not be award of any information related to the plan that could be deemed confidential until a certain progress in the mission would be made;

-The chosen individual, would regroup with his siblings and absorb their powers. His siblings must be alive to perform the transfer;

-The chosen individual must gather the seven wands and the two kingdom artifacts as well as ensure the lands and kingdoms would remain in peace to each other after the attack in case Operation Zombie Heartbreaker was bound to fail;

-The chosen individual would meet the double agent at a place chosen by the latter to give a mean to get to the threat;

-Once all the objectives completed, the chosen threat must confront the threat and return to the Mario World to procceed to the planetary restoration procedure.

Appearance

As a new model, Starlow has a significantly different design compared to her fellow star sprites. Instead of looking like a regular starman, she is spherical and has brown shoes. A small also rests on her head.

Personality

Starlow is very loyal to the Stars and tend to follow her superior's every words without questioning them. She is mostly calm and rarely objects unless it conflicts with her mission. She is also quick to judge people or to jump to conclusions whenever something happens. Unlike Geno, Starlow can express emotions and speaks in a varied tone to sympathize better with her surroundings. She can also become infuriated when someone goes against the directives or when something does not go the way she expects but is afraid to show anger to those already angry. She tends to question a lot since she is not completely familiar with the livings' feelings but is shown to be able to express empathy towards her friends.
