Princess Shokora Thread

[TheDragonFire123]

For some reason, if any Land character has a shot of showing up as a side char in WarioWare, I feel Shokora's up there. Even though she is canonically dead thanks to WL4's ending, there's still a lot of ideas the devs could play with for her, and she'd be a nice foil to the extant Mario princess trio.

"Canonically" and "Mario series" are concepts that begrudgingly get along sometimes, but tend to backstab each other when they get the chance

Interesting question that's been on my mind all day. Shokora was, of course, rather (magically) powerful in her cursed state. Would being free from her curse amplify this? Or no?

I think that wasn't the "curse" per se, but rather the bait in a bait-and-switch of epic proportions (think "computer game with a virus inside", but the virus actually burns your house down). Shokora made a deal with the Golden Diva promising powers beyond belief, but that all came with a nasty Trojan curse that made her incredibly weak to the Golden Diva specifically, which is why she just bounced off with a star effect instead of dealing damage.
