Sushie is a Cheep Cheep who was featured as a playable partner in Paper Mario. She was the seventh partner who could be recruited in the game and the first playable Cheep Cheep in the Mario series.
Background[edit]
Sushie was a Cheep Cheep who resided on Lavalava Island, where she worked as a nanny. She had her own family, including a daughter named Sashimie. Sashimie was pregnant with her own child during the events of Paper Mario, making Sushie into a "grand cheep". She easily became protective of others, especially her charges, and she could be headstrong when it came to protecting them. She was said to love romantic stories and to cry "at the drop of a fin". She seemed to be unaware of the affairs of the Mushroom Kingdom, as she had never heard of Mario before, which she chalked up to him likely being from somewhere far away.
She was featured in Chapter 5 of Paper Mario. Sushie had been assigned to watch over a group of troublemaking Yoshi children known as the Fearsome Five. When they ran off into the jungle to play hide-and-seek, Sushie attempted to pursue them so that she could bring them back to the village. But she fell into a trap laid by one of them and ended up being stuck in a tree, until she was saved by Mario. She decided to work with Mario in order to find the children. After they were all sent back to the village, Sushie found out that Mario was trying to enter the volcanic Mt. Lavalava. She immediately protested out of concern for Mario's safety, but Mario explained his quest to rescue Princess Peach. Sushie found his story to be romantic, so she decided to lend her aid to Mario for the rest of his adventure. Her skills ended up being crucial in reaching Raphael the Raven's area of the jungle and fending off the fiery foes within Mt. Lavalava.
After the princess was rescued, Sushie returned to her babysitting duties at Lavalava Island. She was seen watching over the Fearsome Five when Parakarry delivered an invitation to a celebration that was being thrown at Princess Peach's Castle. She and the Yoshi Leader went to attend it.
