Larry defeated, the adventure continues into the next world, a desert world. Once again, the world features a fortress in the middle and an airship at the end. As you tentatively make your way through this new fortress, you suddenly look up to see a giant stone block with an angry face crashing down on top of your head.
This is a Thwomp, a giant living cinderblock that sometimes acts more like an obstacle than an enemy. These creatures can be found in most castles and fortresses, creating hazardous booby traps for anyone who dares trespass. Although nearly universally known for hanging in one space and moving up and down, they have shown other abilities in various RPGs and other random games, including spitting up large boulders, being followed around by smaller Thwimps, and even showing the ability to move along the ground, albeit a bit slowly.
In battle, Thwomps will be among the slowest and heaviest in the entire game, made up for by intense power and a staunch refusal to be launched by all but the most powerful of attacks. Their moves will pull from all of their random appearances, and even a little from their cousins, the Whomps, but most especially their familiar and iconic up special.
Likelihood rating: Probably not
