Peril

Peril is a status condition that reoccurs throughout the Paper Mario series.

History
First appearing in Paper Mario, Peril is a condition where Mario has only 1 HP left. This can also occur for Mario's partners in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. Peril is a step down from Danger and is recommended for Mario to use a recovery item to stay alive. In Super Paper Mario, the game will prompt the player to heal when they are about to lose all HP.
