- “I'm Hayzee! And I must say, Luigi is a great actor, one of the finest I've seen! ... I'm going to be known as "The Red Miracle"! And of courseLuigi will be grass!”
- —Hayzee,Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
Hayzee is aCrazee Dayzee with green petals and blue feet, whomLuigi meets during his quest to assemble theMarvelous Compass, duringPaper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. His name is a mixture of the words "hazy" and "Dayzee."
Hayzee lived inJazzafrazz Town, where he wrote a musical entitled "The Mystery of The Fiery Hat of Social Awareness" for the annual Jazzafrazz Town Drama Slam. As it turned out, the compass piece that Luigi needed was a part of theDramalama Plaque, the prize for winning the Drama Slam. So, Luigi became an actor in Hayzee's play. While Hayzee played the part ofThe Red Miracle, Luigi, much to his chagrin, played the part of grass.
In the end, their musical was most popular by far, they won the Drama Slam, and Hayzee joined Luigi on his quest. Hayzee tells Mario that after he and Luigi finish their quest, he wants to take his play all over the world. Of course, Luigi will be grass.
Hayzee andScreamy are the only one of Luigi’s partners who do not despise or find something wrong with him. Hayzee is the only partner to explicitly be shown liking Luigi, as Screamy’s relationship with Luigi is vague and shrouded in mystery.
Profiles[edit]
- Tattle:That's Luigi's Dayzee friend, Hayzee. Apparently, Hayzee is an actor/director. You know Luigi's acting debut, right? The grass thing? I could never play grass... I'd wanna play a princess! And a prince would wake me with a kiss... So romantic!
