'''Clubbas''' are [[Spike]] soldiers that wield mace-like spiked clubs which resemble an ordinary Spike's ball. They appear exclusively within the [[Paper Mario (series)|''Paper Mario'' series]], where they are typically found sleeping outside of combat, typically leaving them vulnerable to a [[First Strike]] or simply allowing them to be avoided altogether. They bear a strong resemblance to the Spike's appearance in official ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' artwork, bearing white hair, green skin and dark gray shells.
'''Clubbas''' are large, burly  creatures who are often shown to work for [[Bowser]] as [[Koopa Troop|soldiers]]; though some Clubbas have shown to be neutral characters. A Clubba's trademarks is its spiked mace and tendency to sleep a lot. They closely resemble the smaller [[Spike (enemy)|Spikes]], and their Japanese name '''Gabon Hei''' (lit. "Gabon Soldier") implies that they are directly related to them, as Spikes are known as Gabon in Japanese.

[[File:PM Clubba screenshot.png|thumb|left|A Clubba sleeping in the halls of [[Tubba Blubba's Castle]].]]
[[Image:Clubbabackground.gif|thumb|right|150px|A Clubba wandering the halls of [[Tubba Blubba's Castle]].]]
Clubbas first appear in ''[[Paper Mario]]'', where they are commonly seen as guards in the [[Tubba Blubba's Castle|castle]] of [[Tubba Blubba]]. Only a few of Tubba Blubba's Clubba henchmen actively guard the castle, and if [[Mario]] and his [[Partner|team]] decide to, they can simply sneak by sleeping Clubbas, who only wake up if the team moves quickly. In battle, they walk over and swing their clubs down on Mario. After completing Chapter 3, all enemies abandon Tubba Blubba's Castle except for one Clubba in the first floor east wing. He apparently fell asleep and got left behind and when talked to, he wakes up and realizes this before falling asleep again.
The first Clubbas appeared in ''[[Paper Mario]]'', where they were commonly seen guards in the [[Tubba Blubba's Castle|castle]] of [[Tubba Blubba]], himself a monstrous Clubba. Only a few of Tubba Blubba's Clubba henchmen actively guarded the castle, and if Mario so wished, he could simply sneak by sleeping Clubbas, which would only wake if they sensed a quick movement. If the player chooses a Clubba as one of the things Mario fears in a Princess Peach intermission, [[Kammy Koopa]] will summon one to guard a [[Treasure Chest]] in the [[Shy Guy's Toy Box]]. Later in ''Paper Mario'', a single Clubba appears as a sleeping guard in [[Princess Peach's Castle]]; sleeping while it was supposed to be guarding a door in the castle. This Clubba could have its appearance copied by [[Princess Peach]] and her [[Sneaky Parasol]], making a Clubba, complete with its mace, playable in a sense.


If the player chooses a Clubba as one of the things Mario fears in the Princess Peach intermission after the Tubba Blubba quest, [[Kammy Koopa]] summons one to guard a [[Treasure Chest]] in the [[Shy Guy's Toy Box]]. Later in the game, after Mario and his crew defeat [[Huff N. Puff]] and rescue the [[Klevar|sixth]] [[Star Spirit]], a single Clubba appears as a sleeping guard in [[Peach's Castle]], sleeping while it was supposed to be guarding the door to the hallway where Mario and [[Bowser]] faced off at the beginning of the game and will do so again in the climax. [[Princess Peach]], using her [[Sneaky Parasol]], turns into this Clubba to relieve a [[Koopatrol]] of his duties at that door, as well as to proceed further to the top of the castle before being caught again by Kammy Koopa.
===''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door===
In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', only one Clubba, named [[Grubba]] makes an appearance as the manager of the [[Glitz Pit]] and as a [[Macho Grubba|boss]].


A more powerful variety known as [[White Clubba]]s make an appearance in Chapter 7 on [[Shiver Mountain]] and inside [[Crystal Palace]].

The most recent appearance of Clubbas has been ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', where they appear in all the surface areas of the [[Gap of Crag]]. Once more, they were often found napping and could be avoided by the player's character. A Clubba can also be fought against in [[Castle Bleck]] as an optional enemy, like in ''Paper Mario''. There was also a very brief mentioning of Tubba Blubba, by [[Francis]]. According to him, Tubba Blubba stars in his own TV series called ''[[The Blubbening]]''. ''Super Paper Mario'' is notable for being the only game in the series that does not feature a Clubba as a boss in the game's third chapter.
===''Trivia===
*Clubba's somewhat resemble [[Yoshis]].

*While [[Tubba Blubba]] and [[Grubba]] have names based on Clubbas in English versions, neither of them are club-wielding soldiers, which primarily distinguishes Clubbas from [[Spike]]s.
