Husband

“W-What the hell happened to my eye?”- Husband, after looking at his face in a handheld mirror.Husband is a horrorbrew owned by DruidLucid. He is the result of a late husband putting himself (as a spirit) into a copy of Super Mario Odyssey and into the body of Mario to stay by his now-widowed wife’s side and make sure she’s safe now that he’s no longer with her in the real world.
==Appearance==
Husband appears almost like a regular Mario in the Black Tuxedo outfit, though the differences he possesses are noticeable.
The ‘M’ emblem on the hat is gone and is replaced by the emblem seen on Bowser’s groom hat, which is also now on the right side instead of the left. His left eye is more clouded and glossy, while his right eye is glitched out; the pupil replaced with a little white heart. He also has stress rashes on his neck.
Part of his black suit jacket is falling off of his right shoulder, revealing more of his gray-blue waistcoat. The left lapel of the suit has Princess Peach’s blue oval brooch pinned to it. The rest of him and his outfit remains normal.
==Personality ==
Husband is usually a sweet, selfless, and caring guy. He’s also quite awkward, clingy, and emotional as well, but does his best to stay somewhat professional in spite of it.
He typically avoids conflict with others, but will get involved when he has to. He isn’t afraid to speak his mind about things, either; though he does have a tendency of bottling up his emotions at times.
==Biography==
In late 2012, two young adults named Derek Mill and Teagan Rivers had gotten married after dating for a significant amount of time during the 2000’s. They shared interests with one another, were loyal, and were just quite the happy couple in general.
However, in mid-2018 about a year after the US release of Super Mario Odyssey, Derek was discovered not to be breathing one morning by Teagan when the woman tried waking him up for breakfast. It was revealed at the hospital he was then brought to that the man had died in his sleep from natural causes.
Teagan was devastated by her husband’s sudden death and went into a state of depression that lasted for months. To cope with the loss and her loneliness, she would play around with the games she and Derek once shared to look back on the good times they had together.
This included a copy of Super Mario Odyssey, which was one of Teagan’s AND Derek’s favorites.
On one particular night, Teagan was knocked out on the couch after falling asleep while playing the game and changing Mario into the Black Tuxedo outfit. Nearby the house she and Derek once shared was a graveyard, the same one Derek himself was buried after his death.
On this night, Derek, now as a spirit, was able to release himself from his physical, decomposing body. He knew that he was now supposed to move on somewhere somehow, but was apprehensive at the fact.
He always had a fear of being alone or moving on without his wife by his side, but he had an idea of how he could be with her again now that things had changed.
And so, he located the residence and roamed it, eventually finding Teagan sleeping with the Nintendo Switch with the SMO cartridge inside lying in her lap. He wasted no time putting his form into the cartridge and into the game’s world itself.
His existence within the world messed some things up for him physically, which was quite frustrating. But other than that, he was in.
All he had to do now was wait until Teagan woke back up.
==Abilities/Weaknesses==
===Abilities===
Ghost Physiology- As a spirit, Derek (pre-game transfer) has the classic abilities of your typical supernatural.
===Weaknesses===
Altruism- Husband’s kind nature can be taken advantage of by the wrong people.
==Trivia == 
*The stress rashes on Husband’s neck are unable to heal properly due to the man having a bad habit of scratching at them.
**He doesn’t remember how he even got them. To him, they sort of just appeared.
*Husband is partially blind due to his glitched eye and needs help from Cappy to get around some places.
*He usually refers to Teagan by her nickname ‘Teagie’, even when he gets serious.
*He suffers from altitude sickness, and falls ill almost every time he gets on the Odyssey.
*Husband does not speak through Mario’s voice. He doesn’t have an italian accent himself, so it would be too hard for him to even attempt it.
**He actually has an Icelandic accent.
*His favorite sweet is black licorice. Teagan would often bash on him for it, and still does now just to tease him.
