'''Enigmas''' are a mysterious entity. Although an Enigma resembles a large, purple bat, the monster is actually a colony of smaller bats that come together to create one larger Enigma. Somehow, these bats can both think independently and combine their consciousnesses to act as one being. Interestingly, the large Enigma resembles the small bats that make the monster up; however, Enigmas are a lot lumpier than their smaller counterparts. This is because an Enigma is not made up of one bat, but many bats. These bats can even detach themselves from the group and reform into different shapes.

'''Enigmas''' are enemies in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|its remake]]. Although an Enigma resembles a large, purple bat with what looks like a pig's snout, the monster is actually a colony of smaller bats that come together to create one larger Enigma. The large Enigma resembles the small bats that make the monster up, and can reform into different shapes, such as an arrow.


Enigmas are commonly found in the mines of [[Moleville]]. However, Enigmas do not fight by themselves; they always fight with other monsters on their side. In a battle, an Enigma fights by separating into smaller bats and attacking the intruder. They also know the spell [[Echofinder]] which causes the [[Mute (status effect)|Mute]] status ailment, preventing an opponent from using special attacks.

A variant of Enigma, known as [[Enigmax]], can be found in the [[Sunken Ship]].
Enigmas are relatives of Gorgons.
