Here's our first partner of my Paper Mario: Fortune of Fear series, Mermor~

He's the first partner that you start out with, but he's a little different than most. For one he's out on the battle field at all times along with Mario, meaning that you'll have 3 active party members total throughout the game instead of the regular 2.

Secondly, he doesn't have any direct attacks that he can use, unless you count his last ablility, Spellbound.

A third thing unique to not just Mermor, but to all partners, is that there will be numerous sections where you get to play as the partner themselves, as opposed to Mario, both in the over world and in battle. And this can take place sometimes before even encountering the partner personally, like during the prologue of a chapter. In chapter 5 of the game for instance, at Candy Castle, I had the idea that the player would take control of Pepperspray, a Smoke Bob-omb of the castle, as she makes a daring escape from the Shroobs that have taken over the castle to reach the outside before bumping into Mario and requesting his help.

In any case, Mermor himself is a young, and as his name suggests, very quiet apprentice to the classic character Merlon of Toad Town, though Mermor himself lives in a home in Dy Vide Valley, a place that's located right by the entrance to the Millennium Temple. Mermor thinks he's apprenticing to become a fortune teller, like Merlon, but he actually has a far different purpose planned in his future, (and that's probably why his name isn't Merlon also ), and the only reason he's apprenticing to begin with was at the request of his mother Meramore, as a distraction so that he doesn't get himself into trouble during her absence.

Without further ado, his actual moves are as follows:

Forewarn
Initially used as a move for Tattle, it has a secondary use that can predict the next action of any foe that's already been tattled on, costs FP whenever it's used after initially tattling on an enemy. Just so it's not totally abused to constantly predict what an enemy's going to do next. xDDD

Debuffer
Used to cancel out any buffs an enemy currently has, or to decrease their defenses when they don't have any buffs at all. Costs FP

Luck of the Draw
Has an effect similar to Merlee's spells in that it will randomly cause a helpful effect, such as increasing Star Points, decreasing damage, ect. Costs FP

Spellbound
Draws in all his energy to summon one of the Prophet Shaman's abilities to use for himself, changing the color of his robes, and replacing "Spellbound" with that particular move for a number of turns during the battle, though in a weaker form. Costs a lot of FP.

Since he doesn't have any moves that really cause direct damage, like Mario and other partners he'll have the ability to pass, charge summoning power (for mario to call on the Shamans), or defend, so you won't suck up FP everytime his turn comes up.

Also I decided that I'll still do everyone in Paper Mario style, but I'll be making them a lot less static- like I ended up doing with all the Prophet Shamans a little earlier. xDDD
