Let's Start Hisstocrat is a boss in Super Mario 3D World. He's a Snake King accompanied by smaller snakes. These snakes don't have a clear recognition from Nintendo over time until the Mario Bros encyclopedia came out, in the Japanese version, they do receive a name. 小さなヘビースネーク=Chīsana Hebī Sunēku=Small Hisstocrat
I saw the argument that they were tentacles, given their internal names and the legend they're inspired by. But this argument is very far-fetched for what it is: they're snakes that Hisstocrat pulls out of the ground with his hissing noise.
1. here we can see how Hisstocrat makes a whistle to call his minions, If they were really tentacles, why would he need to call them to appear?
2. When Hisstocrat is defeated, the other snakes also die, so they are tentacles, right? No, the reason is simpler. In every Mario game, every time the boss is defeated, every enemy in the surrounding area also dies, so it's not a good argument.
3.There are three different types of Chīsana Hebī Sunēku
A. Is the normal one, which holds a plate, the player must climb through it, reach the plate and jump towards Hisstocrat
B. They will hold a broken plate, if the player steps on the plate, it will break and Chīsana Hebī Sunēku will start to bite.
C. When they come out of the ground they will start biting immediately.
As you can see, it's quite a bit of information, keep in mind that I summarized it and that I didn't include the version with a Power Up and the Pink Versions of Hisstocrat Pink.
4. We have pages for minions with even more insignificant mentions, such as Green enemy, Slave Basa, Mechanical Fish, or Hammer (Wario Land 4).
