PMFOF - Bloom

5th partner of Paper Mario: Fortune of Fear, Bloom.

She's met at Chapter 4 at her own home/dad's place of work, Juniper Junkyard.

Ever since the shroobs began their invasion, the chomps living in the junkyard that were once rather tame have now been going wild and causing all sorts of chaos! So when Mario and Co. arrives she requests for their help in exchange for allowing the group to look for the Prophet's Moon shard that ended up in the area.

If it wasn't given away by her appearance, Bloom here is a Boo-chanic. She works under her father Brooster helping to build and repair all sorts of new contraptions. The reason they're living in the junkyard though is that her dad always believed one man's trash is another's treasure, meaning that it'd be a goldmine for all kinds of neat parts. Formerly her dad had lived in Gusty Gulch, though he moved out when he caught wind of the "ghost gobblin' monster" Tubba Blubba being in the area.

Bloom's always had more of a fascination for martial arts than machinery (mostly from her mother Cherray's side, as she came from a region nearby Sammerland), so with the mechanical skills learned from her dad she's worked at building several prototype suits that she can use to battle like real martial artists, her most recent one being used for her final move Secret Weapon.

Her overworld ability is typical to that of most ghost partners, turning Mario transparent. Though it works a bit different, in that it only lasts for a few seconds, but it allows Mario to pass through walls and other objects, since he's not restricted to hiding in one spot. (Kinda like Boo Mario from SMGalaxy) She also has a secondary ability to repair certain objects or upgrade weapons with the right tools.

Moves:

Tool Box
Digs through her box of supplies, tossing objects of varying damage backwards at an enemy. The chances for more damaging objects to be thrown increases as she levels up.

Hide Out
Turns the party transparent for one turn, allowing Mermor or Mario to attack if she uses this move first. Costs FP to use.

Weld-o-Wisp
Pulls down her goggles and grabs out a welder to damage all enemies and cause a burn with a successful action command. Costs FP to use.

Secret Weapon
Brings out her samurai mech suit, knocking the front-most enemy no matter their position into any enemies behind it for massive damage. Costs a lot of FP to use.
