Welcome to this new series! In this series, we just change one event in a particular series and see what happens as a result. About how different things would have become. Because there are many times when just making one little change can cause a drastic change in the long run. This event will always either be in the past, or during a series, but NEVER the end of the timeline. Otherwise it wouldn't have any effect, there's no future to change, because there is none at all. In this particular episode, we will discuss what would have happened if Fawful joined Dimentio in Super Paper Mario. (Technically he joins the Count, but he is going along with Dimentio with the "and make perfect new ones") "But Freddy! Fawful died in Bowser's Inside Story, you'd be changing TWO events, one because Fawful DIED, and two because of he never died, he surely wouldn't join the Count!" Actually, Fawful.. didn't die. Although we do not directly see his face in Dream Team, we do see someone disguised in the castle. And when you talk to him, he doesn't turn around like everyone else. "That's Antasma, Freddy!" No. Antasma is WAY too big to fit inside such a disguise! The only villain that could reasonably be inside this disguise is Fawful himself. So yeah, he's alive. He probably has respawning powers like Bowser, I don't know. But anyways, let us begin.

Now, some might argue that if this were the case, that Fawful would be the one to take the princess, because that's what happened in Bowser's Inside Story. But the thing is, in that game, one of the minions (Fawful) was meant to take the princess. But here, the boss himself took her, as the chosen one. There is no way that Fawful would be able to take that place. Whether he joined or not, Count Bleck would be the one to kidnap Princess Peach. Neither would he be a part of the wedding, because the only reasons Nastasia was there was because of her hypnosis. Fawful serves no purpose in the wedding, though he probably would have witnessed it.

The first real change would be in the scene after Mario enters the first dimensional door. Fawful would also be speaking about what to do after destroying all worlds. His ideal world would likely be to be a ruler. This would probably be planned to come true as well, after all, ruling alongside the Count itself would probably please Fawful just like ruling alongside Cackletta did. Now, we've seen from Superstar Saga that he likes to be the first to battle against his enemies, but due to O'Chunks also wanting to battle first, they'd probably go first together. This would make things a lot harder for Mario, though he'd win. (Firstly because he's the Hero of Light, and secondly because, well, we already KNOW what would have happened if the heroes LOST to Bleck. Things wouldn't be interesting anymore.

Anyways, I will continue my explanation in Part 2!
