Wet-Dry World Demon

The Wet-Dry World Demon is an anomalous entity that can be found in some personalised copies of Super Mario 64. It has been reported to appear at the lowest water level in the center of Wet-Dry World’s town and the entrance to Dire, Dire Docks. The entity is initially docile until the player encounters it again at the entrance to Dire, Dire Docks, at which point it becomes extremely aggressive, similar to the Wario Apparition.

Description and Behavior
The Wet-dry World demon is best characterized as a tall, bulky bipedal entity with blood-colored skin, hollow sunken eyes, and a large depressing frown. The entity has tipped black stilt-like limbs instead of hands and feet. In the fountain, it adopts a sumo-like stance, with its arms at its sides. It stands upright at the entrance to Dire, Dire Docks, with its shoulders back and arms outstretched before giving chase. A chase sequence begins that requires the player to move their analog stick forward to run away from the entity. During this chase sequence a new song can be heard as the player begins to run.

Although your chances of finding the Wet-Dry World Demon with this exact description are not guaranteed, due to its appearance being determined by the Personalisation AI and its supposed processes like creating Abominations and Self-patches, this is its most commonly reported appearance. Surefire signs of the Wet-Dry World Demon being in your copy can be self-evident as they can easily be visually noticed by the player. Common signs include: An almost empty level that has no blocks or coins and no smaller enemies such as Heave-Ho s, Keronpa Ball s, Amp s, the appearance of Depressed Skeeters, and a spike in lag.

Upon interacting with the demon in Wet-Dry World, the music will stop and its dialogue will begin. A bassy growl sound can be heard upon interacting with it.

“They all drowned, Mario. And I took their souls. And yet I can’t smile, Mario. None of us can…”

“The skeeters tore their corpses limb to limb and yet they can’t smile, Mario.”

“We are full, but yet we remain unhappy. I'm utmost spry however. That’s good, right?”
