'''Orb Users''' are enemies in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|its remake]] that resemble red magical staffs. Orb Users are guards in [[Booster Tower]], aiding other minions of [[Booster]] in combat by using their magic spells. Orb Users never fight by themselves.


The top of an Orb User's body is a red head with two black eyes and two large horns. In between the horns is a glowing magical orb that hovers above the Orb User's head. Using this powerful orb, the Orb Users can use a wide variety of magical spells, primarily fire-based attacks. These spells include [[Flame (move)|Flame]], [[Flame Wall]], [[Bolt (move)|Bolt]], and [[Recover]].
'''Orb Users''' are monsters that resemble orange magical staffs, and can be found in the game ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. In fact, these creatures are not only magical staffs, but powerful magic users as well. As such, Orb Users were used as guards in [[Booster Tower]], aiding other minions of [[Booster]] in combat by using their magic spells. Orb Users never fight by themselves.


An Orb User has a very high defense rating, making most attacks deal only one [[Heart Point|HP]] worth of damage. Fortunately, an Orb User only has eight Hit Points, offsetting their high defense and recovery spells.

This orb is the source of the monster's magic. Using this powerful orb, this strange creature can use a wide variety of magical spells, primarily fire-based attacks. These spells include [[Flame (move)|Flame]], [[Flame Wall]], [[Bolt (move)|Bolt]] (a weak wind-aligned magic attack) and the curative technique [[Recover]].
