The Sprixie Princesses are a group of seven characters from Super Mario 3D World. They act as the rulers of the Sprixie Kingdom and the Sprixies, a race of fairies who play a major role in the story. The British English release of Super Mario 3D World Original Soundtrack refers to the green Sprixie Princess as the sole Sprixie Princess and refers to the others as her followers.[1] Due to Yoshiaki Koizumi deciding to make Princess Peach a playable character as opposed to having her reprise her usual damsel-in-distress role as how Koichi Hayashida and Kenta Motokura initially intended it to be, the Sprixie Princesses became the damsels in distress getting captured by Bowser in lieu of Peach.
Trivia[]
- Bowser's method of capturing the Sprixie Princesses is similar to how Link catches fairies in The Legend of Zelda series.
- The Sprixie Princesses' color schemes match the color schemes of the worlds they are captured in.
- The Sprixie Princesses' color schemes also represent the respective colors that collectively compose white light. This is further supported when Bowser combines the Sprixie Princesses' power for himself, which generates a white light.
