Crow

Crows are a real-world animal which appear in some Mario games, most commonly the Luigi's Mansion series. They first appear in Luigi's Mansion for Nintendo GameCube.

Profile

Physical description

In Luigi's Mansion and Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Crows are black-feathered like real-world crows, they are tall and stocky, and they have eyes on each side of their head. In Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, Crows are instead purple-feathered, and they are quite short and lean and have eyes on the front of their head.

In Luigi's Mansion series

Luigi's Mansion

Crows make a cameo during the opening cutscene, as Luigi travels through Boo Woods on his way to the mansion.

Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon

Crows are one of the non-ghost enemies, and most of them are encountered in Haunted Towers. A Crow can damage Luigi upon contact, but he can instantly vacuum it into his Poltergust 5000 or flash the Strobulb to defeat a Crow, causing it to drop a bill or some hearts. Crows also received their own variant, Gold Crows.

Luigi's Mansion 3

Both Crows and Gold Crows return as enemies from Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, retaining their behavior. Both types also utilize a swooping attack similar to Crowbers from the New Super Mario Bros. sub-series.

In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Crows appear on various trees in Twilight Town. At first, if Mario talks to a crow, it just caws, but if Mario uses Vivian and hides under a tree, they say other things. According to Vivian, the Crows only pretend to be ignorant when humans are around. Crows have the ability to talk about a variety of subjects, and a few even provide tips.
