'''Exor''' is a massive sword-like member of the [[Smithy Gang]] and a major antagonist in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. Exor is actually composed of four parts: the Left Eye, the Right Eye, the Mouth (which is inexplicably translated '''{{wp|Neoteuthidae|Neosquid}}'''), and the skull-shaped pommel (named Exor) that controls the entire body. Exor is used as an inter-dimensional gateway between [[Mario]]'s dimension, home of the [[Mushroom Kingdom]], and [[Smithy]]'s dimension, where Smithy's [[Factory (Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars)|Factory]] is located. | |||
The image of Exor embedded in Bowser's Keep is one of the primary images used to represent the game. Aside from the world map and [[Vista Hill]], it is on the title screen, the front of the American box art, and the back of the Japanese box art. | |||

The giant sword crashes into Bowser's Keep, sending Mario, [[Bowser]], and [[Princess Peach|Toadstool]] (who were battling in the castle) flying to other regions of the world. The keep is occupied by the Smithy Gang, and is used as Smithy's base of operations in [[Mario World|Mario's world]]. | ||

Following his defeat, Exor inhales the party, transporting them to Smithy's dimension. | ||
