Polari is an elderly black Luma whose primary and debut appearance is in Super Mario Galaxy.
Profile[]
Physical description[]
Polari has the same body shape as a regular Luma. His two distinctions are his light blue eyes with white pupils and a black body.
Personality traits[]
Polari is highly protective of the person he advises, and is wise that proves useful to Mario on his adventure.
Biography[]
Spoiler warning : Don't you even dare read the spoiler! Because if you do… Hoo hoo hoo hoo hoooooo… A horrible fate awaits you.Said to be one of the oldest Lumas in existence, Polari serves as Rosalina's most trusted advisor. Having extensive knowledge of the Comet Observatory, Polari serves as a guide of sorts to Mario, showing him a map of all of the galaxies visible from that location, as well as all of the Prankster Comets on that Galaxy, if any. He will show off the map behind him when Mario needs to see what galaxies there are. It is unknown what happens to Polari at the end of the game; he is not seen flying into the giant black hole, and in the secret ending, he does not appear alongside Rosalina or in the Comet Observatory, which could possibly mean he never saw the events.
Spoiler ends here: You looked! Even if I told you not too!In Mario Golf: World Tour[]
Polari made an appearance in Mario Golf: World Tour. If Rosalina scores an Eagle shot, Polari makes an appearance alongside the Lumas.
Crossover appearances[]
Super Smash Bros. series[]
Polari appeared in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U as a Luma for Rosalina.
Polari reappeared in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate with the same role as his last Super Smash Bros. appearance.
Trivia[]
- The Prima guide treats Polari in the domes as separate individuals referring to them simply as Black Lumas.
- Unlike the squeaks the other Lumas give out when they talk, Polari itself talks in a less high pitched (but still a little squeaky) and muffled voice.
