This is my take on Il. Piantissimo from the Nintendo GameCube game titled "Super Mario Sunshine". I have been planning to make a seven-part chronicle fanfic featuring the Mario characters, such as "Mimi... Terror of Gloam Valley", my second character I submitted to DeviantArt. Now my fan-canon will feature "Piantissimo The Masked Runner."
A Brief Summary of Piantissimo's Post-Super Mario Sunshine Story
Here's what happened to Piantissimo after the events of SMS. Piantissimo takes the paint brush, uses it to get pay back at Hotel Delfino's Casino, gets kicked off of Isle Delfino.
He teams up with Doopliss the Duplighost and Roy Koopa, thus becomes a villain. Piantissimo ends up fighting Luigi, Piantissimo realized the wrongs of his evil deeds and asks Mario to help him take down Doopliss and Roy. Mario grudgingly agrees to work with Piantissimo and they both teamed up to defeat Roy Koopa and Doopliss.
Piantissimo did not cause anyone to have a game over/(die) in Toad Town, so he only got 4 years in the Mushroom Kingdom jail. Roy got about 42 years in jail, but Roy escapes jail.
Eventually, after Piantissimo served his time, Piantissimo got to know Mario, Luigi and company, he became one of Mario's best frienemy-allies, (similar to how Goku & Vegeta are allies in DBZ).
Piantissimo was a better frienemy to Mario than DK or Wario ever were. Piantissimo went to a gear-works school for 3 years and became Professor E. Gadd's Technician Assistant.
