Dry Bones is an undead subspecies of the Koopa Troopa. A driver in a few Mario Kart games, after appearing as Mario's enemy in his many previous adventures. He has appeared in Mario Kart DS and Mario Kart Wii as an unlockable driver, and as a Starter Character in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, he was confirmed in the reveal trailer for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. He usually adds a great handling, acceleration, and mini-turbo boost to his Karts, but as a consequence, they have low top speeds.

Characteristics

Dry Bones is a Koopa-like skeleton, It is a white/grayish color, due to all his bones. He wears white gloves and boots. Very fashionable, right? His shell is all pale and cracked up, and his torso is his rib cage. He also has sharp teeth, and instead of white, lively eyes, he has gaping black eyes with yellow pupils. Ohh, scary. Outside of the Mario Kart series, a variation called "Parabones" can be seen, it's a Dry Bones, but with wings, this variation only appears in 3D games, the normal and winged Dry Bones never appear in the same games besides Super Mario Maker. In the Super Mario Bros. Games, when one stomps on one, they fall apart, only to resurrect and resume their stroll on a platform, however, a superstar can get rid of them for good.
