Dimension D
- “In this mind-bending realm, my attacks are 256 times more potent!”
- —Dimentio,Super Paper Mario
Dimension D is a small, green dimension visited inSuper Paper Mario. Created byDimentio, it contains a wide room with a similar grid-based appearance toThe Bitlands, and a sinusoidal pattern in the background. The main known use for the dimension throughout the game is to serve as an arena for boss battles.
Dimentio originally intended for Dimension D to multiply his power by 256. Upon winning the battle against him, the player character claims that the dimension made them more powerful as well, leaving everyone's stats unchanged relative to each other. This may be a homage to 8-bit storage capacity: 8-bit integers have 256 possible values, so adding 256 (although not multiplying by it) willoverflow the integer and result in no net change.
Dimentio first challenges the heroes of the game at Dimension D fromthe Dotwood Tree of The Bitlands. The player also fightsO'Chunks twice here, first from theGap of Crag, and again during the last stage ofFloro Caverns while he is brainwashed by aFloro Sprout.
WhenCount Bleck is defeated, Dimentio sends him, an unconsciousNastasia, andTippi to this dimension, but all of them escape later thanks to the help of thePure Hearts.
The Void is absent from the background of this dimension.
