Something I’ve always thought a lot about is the Blue Shells from Mario kart and the Koopas that might’ve inhabited them.Like, I know that they’re just power ups exclusive to the non-cannon Mario kart games.. but what if they weren’t? What if the blue shell power ups were actually all that remained of an elite type of Koopa Troopa that went extinct? What if the destructive blue shell power up was actually the result of a botched attempt by Kamek to resurrect the species?I have like.. 3 different ideas on the “Blue shelled koopa” and what happened to them. Some are more gruesome than others.. But in these particular drawings? I have a much more tame idea in mind.My idea here is that Parakoopas are indeed alive and are an elite species of Koopa Troopa that are tough as nails and extremely loyal to the Koopa king family. But the reason why no one ever sees them is because instead of these Koopa juggernauts being sent out to fight Mario.. their relatively small population is stationed at Bowsers personal castle as royal guardsmen.. Well, its more a Palace actually.. Anyway these troops are stationed there because its where Bowser, the Koopalings, Kamek (and now Kammy) all live. That’s why you never see Blue Parakoopas anywhere. There’s so few of them and the home that they guard is so important, that none of them are ever sent anywhere else. In fact, the other Troops saw so little of them, that it was rumored that they didn’t really exist. Most Koopa’s thought that Blue shells were a myth or died out long ago.. But they are real, they are alive.. and their Commander just so happens to be friends with Kamek XD -- source link
