Nimbus

**Nimbus** is an area in Yoshi Resort that is found hovering just above the skies of the eastern main Resort grounds, south of the Yoshi Cafe, east of Tommy’s house and west of the Hospital and Yoshi Jungle. It is an area that consist of many Floating Islands above the main ground, with one larger cloud that is considered the main area of Nimbus surrounded by a bunch of smaller ones. The easiest way to get up to Nimbus would have to be through the many streams of water that lead off the islands and flow onto the mainland, but there also are some streams of water that make bubble columns to and from the place which allow the fastest way up and down.

On the islands of Nimbus itself there is are several buildings which can be found, some of which being houses whilst others are services such as an old library, bakery, blacksmith and a mysterious small tower. There is also a center with a bell and several spots that have been overgrown by grass, flowers and trees, as well as lamp posts for light and a farm with crops on one of the smaller islands. There are even small stalls owned by Mario, Tony and Bob from *Bob’s Burgers* where they will sell food items to any customers passing by. To the south of the main cloud there is a huge airship which can be boarded through the back by jumping on some rainy clouds, and this airship is filled with several rooms across 2 floors and many utilities as well as a control deck. In addition, to the east of the main cloud is a huge Nimbus Compound that is filled with Metal Yoshis and some tech, including parkour with Token rewards.

Since Nimbus is above the ground there aren’t many surface creatures to be found here other than the occasional Yoshi or monster that may have found it’s way up. The life mainly consists of Cloud Yoshis who are frequently found around higher areas like this and come in three types: Cloud, Raincloud and aggressive Thundercloud Yoshis as well as the aforementioned Metal Yoshis within the Compound.

## Trivia

* In the old Yoshi Resort map, Nimbus was located above the ancient sea monument and looked quite different at first, but ended up becoming corrupted a bit which changed half of the location’s appearance. Then, part of Nimbus was destroyed by the fallen goddess Victicide when she went on her rampage after being released but following her defeat Nimbus had reformed with a new look. Albeit, at this point Nimbus had now become mostly corrupted and evil with only a disconnected section of the place still being pure.
	+ In the old map there was even a minigame named *Shadow Run* which took place in the corrupted part of Nimbus, though it doesn’t exist anymore.
* On the parkour within the compound, the player can do some hidden parkour around it to find a small island with Yoshi Jesus on it, blessing them with extra Tokens. He can also be found outside of the Yoshi Cafe, and there he will bless you with Tokens if discovered too.
* The Alien from some other areas can be found between the library and one of the small gardens. If approached, he will say that he isn’t allowed to be in Nimbus but that he didn’t care and showed up anyway.
* The giant airship neaby belongs to DaPhantom, one of the main characters of the well-known TV show *Turtle Man and DaPhantom*. Though in the show, his airship was destroyed a long time ago so it doesn’t add up that well, but who cares because it looks cool.
* The name for Nimbus is a reference to clouds, as the word itself is an outdated term for the type of cloud now classified as the nimbostratus cloud.
