'''Dry Bowser''' (also known as '''Bowser Bones''', '''Dry Bones Bowser''' and '''Skeletal Bowser''') is an undead, skeletal version of [[Bowser]] and also his father, debuting in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' Dry Bowser was accidentally created in ''New Super Mario Bros.''{{'}}s first castle, when a short fight between Bowser and [[Mario]] ended with Bowser being dropped into a pit filled with [[lava]]. Unlike previous occasions, the lava reduced the once-mighty king to a skeleton, leaving his son, [[Bowser Jr.]], temporarily in command of the [[Koopa Troop]]. Dry Bowser is then fought in the first castle in [[World 8 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 8]]. | |||

Dry Bowser makes an appearance as a unlockable driver in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', classified as a Large-sized character. He also appears as a separate character from Bowser in the latest ''[[Mario (series)|Mario]]'' games. Dry Bowser has an extremely horrifying howl combined with the rattling of bones from his entire body. This can specially be heard in the [[Wii]] version of ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games]]'' when the player faces him in Ice Hockey. In certain regions of ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'' it was revealed that Dry Bowser is actually Bowser's father. Dry Bowser is the king of the [[Dry Bones]] as Bowser is the king of the [[Koopa (species)|Koopa]]s. | Dry Bowser makes an appearance as a unlockable driver in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', classified as a Large-sized character.

Dry Bowser's personality is similar to [[Bowser]]. He is a cruel and ruthless villain, and his roar is even more terrifying than Bowser's. | Dry Bowser's personality is similar to [[Bowser]]. He is a cruel and ruthless villain, and his roar is even more terrifying than Bowser's. | ||

Dry Bowser is simply a skeletal version of Bowser, though there are some significant changes in not only color but also in shape. The most noticeable feature is his nose, which has morphed into a beak-like shape. Dry Bowser's shell is a charcoal gray with dark red ridges, as opposed to his counterpart's standard green. His horns are longer and more curved and his eye sockets are more triangular with thick bone where Bowser's eyebrows used to be. Like Dry Bones, Dry Bowser's eyes are small glowing pupils. The once black and shiny collars around his neck and arms have been scorched and turned a dull dark red, and his hair has been taken up in a ponytail similar to the hairstyle of [[Bowser Jr.]] | Dry Bowser is simply a skeletal version of Bowser, though there are some significant changes in not only color but also in shape.
