Bandit

A Bandit is a weird creature wearing a blue robe, a mask and has a ability to steal stuff or toys from Mushroomers. Since they're the mutations of so-called creatures called "Shy Guy", people hate these kind of chibi creatures and they secured their houses. Despite their cuteness, they're menacing minons of Bowser Koopa. They first appeared in the merchandises in 1983 to celebrate the Mario Bros. game. Bandits also appear as protagonists in their own anime series.

Some Bandits carry diseases, which may spread to Yoshis. Bandits may catch Proralisis from the infected Shy Guy, and will cause fever, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, anorexia, anemia, and death.
