Bow
Bow is the leader of the Boos of Boo's Mansion in Paper Mario. She is aided by her butler, Bootler.
She joins Mario after he solves the puzzles in Boo Mansion. She can slap enemies and protect Mario from attacks with her Outta Sight attack. By pressing C-Down, she can protect Mario from enemy attacks and not get attacked by an enemy.
She and Bootler make a cameo appearance in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, as they take a vacation at Poshley Heights after Mario and friends administer the coup de grace to the Shadow Queen.
In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, all of the Shadow Sirens (except Doopliss) can use Bow's technique, but it is a little different from Bow's.
In Super Paper Mario, Bow appears as a Catch Card found on the sixtieth floor of the Flopside Pit of 100 Trials.
