The House

The House, as it appears in Chapter 1: "The New Place" with its new star door.

**The House** is an isolated household situated in Flora County and the central setting of the Floran Story of SUBPAR MARIO 64. It is home to Puddin and Dr. Swan.

## Residence

The House is a mysterious property with a history unknown to everybody. It is isolated from the rest of Flora County, separated by a forest named The Mellowood, where Dym stands guard.

The House has a red orange hip-styled roof with beige walls. On its front wall are three windows, two of which are separated from the third by the front door. It is surrounded by a sizable grass field wherein many trees and circles of flowers are present. Around the perimeter of The House itself is a fence, only interrupted by the path leading to the front door.

## History

### Prior to SUBPAR

The House itself currently has no known history, beyond it being an unused property for many years.

### Prologue: "Day of the Lease"

During the events of *Day of the Lease,* Puddin is touring houses with Boli and Pete in tow. It is implied that Boli and Pete lead him to The House as a final option. Inside The House itself, Puddin stumbles upon a painting of Dr. Swan and himself already present in the bedroom, catching him off guard but seemingly endearing him to the property. In a show of excitement, Puddin attempts kicking the front door open, but ultimately hurts himself before walking outside saying he will take the property. Boli then agrees to sign it off the same day.

Later that evening, Blue arrives on the property with the invitation to Peach's Gathering. In the same way Puddin tried to show his excitement by bursting through the front door, Blue preps himself to kick the front door open and present the invitation excitedly. This backfires, however, as the hinges had been damaged by Puddin prior. This results in the front door of The House flying off its hinges and into the fireplace in the living room.

That night, as Puddin, Swan, and Pete prepare to tour Flora for a bit of time, Puddin stops while walking away from the property to take a moment to gaze upon the start of his new life: The House.

### Chapter 1: "The New Place"

At the start of *The New Place,* Lasdan and his fellow new neighbors to introduce arrive at The House. Dym attempts to talk them out of it, as Boli doesn't like to have people present on the property unless absolutely necessary (in the case of Blue, an exception was made for a Royal of the Mushroom Kingdom). Lasdan brushes Dym aside, shoving him out of the way as he blazes towards the front door. He is greeted by Pete, who fails to convince him that he can't be on the property. Lasdan and the gang run inside anyway, and the new neighbor introduction ensues.

Later that evening, after Lasdan, Spot, Mac, and Two-Tone all leave the premises, it is revealed that at some point in the day the group had gone and purchased a new front door for The House. The new front door has a star symbol present on the front of it.

## Trivia

* The House was designed by Enkal as the first in-game mod created specifically for use in SUBPAR.
	+ Similarly, the role of The House as more than just a simple property in the story was an idea heavily pushed by Enkal. It was initially intended to be nothing more than a setting for the main characters before its planned lore was heavily fleshed out.
