'''Whomps''' are a species related to [[Thwomp]]s that debuted in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. They are large enemies that resemble rectangular stone slabs with snaggletoothed faces, simple hands and arms, and legless feet. They are commonly seen as [[Bowser's Minions|minions]] of [[Bowser]] and the [[Whomp King]], though some Whomps in the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]] are shown to be independent. They attempt to crush [[Mario]] by falling over and trying to land on top of him when he gets near. They can be defeated by Mario causing them to fall over and subsequently [[Ground Pound|ground-pound]]ing on their sole weak spot, their back, which is marked by a cracked area with either a bandage or a [[ground-pound switch]] symbol, depending on the game. In their initial appearance, the Whomps and Thwomps share the same voice clip. In later games, Whomps are given a unique voice.


They are inspired by the Japanese mythological creature known as the {{wp|Nurikabe (folklore)|nurikabe}}.<ref>{{cite|url=didyouknowgaming.com/post/87525321000/mario-httpenwikipediaorgwikinurikabe|title=Post by Did You Know Gaming?|publisher=didyouknowgaming.com|accessdate=May 19, 2024}}</ref> The nurikabe is a sentient wall that blocks the way of travelers, which Whomps do as well in the ''Mario Party'' series, on boards such as [[DK's Jungle Adventure]], and [[King Boo's Haunted Hideaway]].
'''Whomps''' are large, walking stone enemies and the minions of [[Bowser]]. They debuted in the game ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. Whomps are related to [[Thwomps]], enemies that are also made out of stone. A majority of Whomps live at [[Whomp's Fortress]], which is ruled by the [[Whomp King]].


==History==
Whomps attempt to crush [[Mario]] by simply falling on top of him. They can be defeated by [[Ground Pound|ground pounding]] their backs, their sole weak area (as indicated by a bandage).

[[File:WhompSM64.png|thumb|100px|A Whomp's design for ''Super Mario 64'', also used for ''Mario Party 3'']]
Whomps, also named '''Whomp Lieutenants''',<ref>{{cite|title=''Nintendo Magazine System'' (AU) Issue #45|date=December 1996|page=26 and 30}}</ref> '''Slab Beasts'''<ref>{{cite|title=''Nintendo Official Magazine'' (UK) Issue #54|page=23|date=March 1997}}</ref> or '''Small Whomps''',<ref>{{cite|deadlink=y|archive=web.archive.org/web/19980610064243/http://www.nintendo.com/n64/super_mario64/2-1.html|title=Course 2 - Star 1: Chip off Whomp's Block|publisher=Nintendo: Super Mario 64 Strategy|accessdate=March 15, 2022|language=en-us}}</ref> appear in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' as enemies only in [[Whomp's Fortress]] alongside their leader, the [[Whomp King]], and one appearing midway through [[Bowser in the Sky]]. A [[list of Super Mario 64 glitches#Clip through walls|trick]] allows Mario to pass through one and get on its back if he [[jump]]s while one is falling. When a Whomp is defeated, Mario is rewarded with five [[coin]]s. Before Whomps are defeated, jumping on their backs repeatedly gives him five more coins, for a total of ten.


In ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', Whomps received slight alterations to their appearance, with their rocky texture being a bit smoother, their bodies being rougher and rounder along the edges, and their hands matching their body's color and being rectangular with a thumb instead of purple and spherical. Additionally, it is no longer possible to jump through them as they fall. Finally, besides [[Ground Pound|Pounding the Ground]], it is now possible to defeat them with a [[Super Mushroom|mushroom]].
Additionally, Whomps are used as blockades in the ''[[Mario Party]]'' series. In ''[[Mario Party 4]]'', a Whomp hosts the Extra Room, a room filled with challenging mini-games.


====''New Super Mario Bros.''====
Whomps reappear in the ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' They all reside in the World 3 castle. In this game, Whomps will again try to crush Mario if he attempts to pass by them. Once on the floor, Mario can Ground Pound the Whomp's back to destroy it. Whomps can also be used as platforms to cross harmful parts of the environment, like spikes. One can even be used to help Mario collect a [[Star Coin]]. Interestingly, a single, larger than average Whomp is also found in this level.
[[File:NSMBDS Big Whomp.png|frame|left|A Whomp in ''New Super Mario Bros.'']]
Three Whomps appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', using the same model as in ''Super Mario 64 DS''. They are exclusively found in the [[World 3-Castle (New Super Mario Bros.)|castle]] of [[World 3 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 3]]. Whomps in this game behave similarly to their ''Super Mario 64'' counterpart, again trying to crush Mario if he attempts to pass by them; however, instead of walking around, they simply stand still in the background, waiting for the player to approach. Once on the floor, Mario can Ground Pound the Whomp's back to destroy it and it drops four coins. They can also be used as platforms to cross harmful parts of the environment, like [[Spike (obstacle)|spike]]s. A specific Whomp can also be used to help Mario collect a [[Star Coin]]. There is also one particular Whomp, known as the [[Big Whomp]], who behaves differently from the others, being slightly larger and walking instead of staying in the background. However, the official strategy guide doesn't make any distinction between this particular Whomp and its brethren. Due to where this Big Whomp is placed, it cannot actually move and simply appears to aimlessly turn back and forth on the spot.

====''Super Mario Galaxy 2''====
== Trivia ==
[[File:SMG2 Bowsers Lava Lair Whomp Screenshot.png|thumb|left|A Whomp in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'']]
* The Whomp was inspired by the Japanese mythological creature known as the nurikabe. The nurikabe is a sentient wall that blocks the way of travelers.
Despite not appearing in the first game, Whomps appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', with many of their physical features changed. The Whomps' body features are more rectangular, their textures much more smooth, and their eyes no longer unfocused. Their characteristic bandages are no longer present; instead, Whomps now bear the [[Ground Pound]] symbol on their back. Additionally, they can instantly kill Mario upon crushing him in this game, unlike in their past appearances. The area in which to Ground Pound them is now limited to the small Ground Pound symbol on their back, instead of the whole back. Mario can also [[Wall Jump]] on them, which can be used to get certain high-floating objects, such as a [[Comet Medal]] and a [[Green Star]]. Upon spotting Mario, they will immediately stop patrolling their route and pursue him at a faster pace before stopping, shaking in place, and slamming down on him similar to ''Super Mario 64''. Whomps also use their grunting voice line from newer titles when slamming down.
* In ''Super Mario 64'' the only one called Whomp was King whomp


The [[Whomp King]] also makes a return as the boss of the [[Throwback Galaxy]]. The Whomp King himself does not appear directly at the top of the fortress, instead it is a regular Whomp. This Whomp is a stand-in for the Whomp King, who appears in person on the underside of the stage after the defeat of the generic Whomp. It is also the only Whomp that appears in the galaxy. The Whomp King has also gained the ability to call in [[Whimp]]s, who make their debut appearance in this game.

[[Category: Enemies]]
After being absent in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', Whomps once again appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', alongside Big Whomps. They act just like they did in the first ''New Super Mario Bros.'' game. Regular Whomps are now seen walking back and forth sometimes, and some Big Whomps are seen in the background. Regular Whomps only leave behind one coin when defeated in this game, while Big Whomps leave three. They are only found in {{world-link|mushroom|castle|World Mushroom-Castle}} and {{world-link|star|3|World Star-3 (New Super Mario Bros. 2)}}.

[[Category: Mario Party Characters]]
 
===''Mario Party'' series===
====''Mario Party''====
In ''[[Mario Party]]'', three Whomps appear in [[DK's Jungle Adventure]]. They are guarding the junctions, and players who wish to take the path that a Whomp is blocking must first pay it 10 [[Coin]]s. Players that choose to take the path that the Whomp is not guarding causes the Whomp to start blocking that pathway instead.
 
====''Mario Party 2''====
In ''[[Mario Party 2]]'', Whomps appear in [[Horror Land]] and [[Space Land]]. In Horror Land, they keep their role from ''Mario Party'', but overnight they are paralyzed by magic and cannot move; this forces players to take the open path. In Space Land, they pursue players instead of Thwomps if [[Snifit Patrol]] is out. Whomps also are in the minigame [[Day at the Races]]. A Whomp with no legs and arms also appears in [[Mystery Land]]. When the last five turns of a board begin, if Mario is participating, a Whomp can appear as one of the predictors of the Super Star. It will always choose him if it appears.
 
====''Mario Party 3''====
Whomps appear in ''[[Mario Party 3]]''. In Duel Mode, they are [[Donkey Kong]]'s initial partner. They have four health, but no attack power. Their salary is 3 coins per turn. If the player receives a second Whomp as a partner while one is still active, the Millennium Star decreases their salaries by one instead of raising their attack (as is typical of other partners). They also appear on the board [[Creepy Cavern]]. On this board, the primary Whomp is the Whomp King, who is blocking one of the two paths at an intersection; giving him an item allows the player to move on while the Whomp King blocks the other path. There are also three Whomps right next to him, who appear to be playing an actual ''Mario Party'' board game. The game itself appears to be based on Rules Land from ''[[Mario Party 2]]''.
 
====''Mario Party 4''====
In ''[[Mario Party 4]]'', a Whomp hosts the Extra Room, a room filled with challenging minigames. They also appear acting like dominos in the minigame [[Domination]].
 
====''Mario Party 5''====
In ''[[Mario Party 5]]'', Whomps and other characters appear in the background of [[Random Ride]]. They also appear in the background of many other minigames. On the [[Pirate Dream]] board, they allow players to use a ladder as a shortcut for 10 coins.
 
====''Mario Party 6''====
In ''[[Mario Party 6]]'', a Whomp blocks a path in front of an Orb Shop in the board [[Snowflake Lake]], and charges 10 coins for players to pass. Going this way takes the player to the right side of the frozen pond. A Whomp also appears in the board [[Faire Square]] who blocks a path at the center of the board, and charges 10 coins for players to pass. They also appear in [[Tricky Tires]] as obstacles.
 
====''Mario Party Advance''====
[[File:MPA On the Spot Screenshot.png|thumb|A Whomp in the "On the Spot" [[minigame]] in ''Mario Party Advance''.]]
{{quote|I don't got much to say, so let's duel!|Whomp|Mario Party Advance}}
In ''[[Mario Party Advance]]'', Whomp appears in [[Shroom City (Mario Party Advance)|Shroom City]] as a duelist. According to his description, he is considered to be a "power" duelist, having strength that even surpasses [[Little Mouser|Mouser]]'s. He is one of the three duelists of [[Duel Tower]], and is found on the first floor. After the player speaks briefly to Mouser, Whomp leaps down and gives the duelist greeting before briefly explaining that the player can advance to the next floor if they win. He then initiates the duel, which is [[Stair Scare]]. Once the player wins, Whomp admits that he did not expect them to be so strong, but still lets them continue on before saying that he needs to continue training. The ending credits state that he has since become friends with [[Thwomp]] and moved into his [[Thwomp House|house]].
 
Whomps also appear in some minigames, such as [[On the Spot]] and [[Outta My Way (minigame)|Outta My Way]].
 
====''Mario Party 7''====
In ''[[Mario Party 7]]'', Whomps use their design from ''Super Mario 64 DS''. A Whomp blocks the path leading to the Bowser Sphinx on [[Pyramid Park]], charging players a 10 coin fee to let them pass. They also appear in a few [[minigame]]s such as [[Sphere Factor]] and [[Spin Off]]; in the former they are obstructions, and in the latter they are one of the possible pictures to be formed.
 
====''Mario Party 8''====
In ''[[Mario Party 8]]'', Whomps have the same function as ''Mario Party'', and are found in [[King Boo's Haunted Hideaway]]. One Whomp also appears in the minigame [[Moped Mayhem]] and [[Specter Inspector]]. In the [[Prima Games]] guide of ''Mario Party 8'', the author mistakenly refers to Whomp as a [[Thwomp]].{{ref needed}}
 
====''Mario Party DS''====
In ''[[Mario Party DS]]'', Whomps appear in several minigames, like [[Whomp-a-thon]], [[Plush Crush]] (as a plush) and [[Toppling Terror]].
 
====''Mario Party 9''====
[[File:MP9 Whomp Stomp 6.png|thumb|200px|left|Whomp is one of the bosses in ''Mario Party 9'']]
A Whomp appears as one of the bosses in ''[[Mario Party 9]]'', alongside [[King Bob-omb]] as the boss of the board Bob-omb Factory. It is the mid boss of the level, and the minigame it is fought in is [[Whomp Stomp]].
 
====''Mario Party: Island Tour''====
In ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'', a Whomp appears at the end of the [[Perilous Palace Path]] board, acting as the final challenge. The player rolls a die to try to deplete its health. However, if the player does not fully deplete his health, it squishes them and the player is not able to finish. If the player does manage to defeat it, they automatically win the board. A Whomp also appears in the minigame [[Ka-Goomba!]] after some time. When it appears, the player must shoot its back to defeat it. After it is defeated, the minigame ends. This is the first game to feature Whomps' current design.
 
====''Mario Party 10''====
In ''[[Mario Party 10]]'', a Whomp blocks the way in front of the middle castle during Bowser Party. Characters need to hit the Whomp a total of six times in order to defeat it; the number of hits is decided by a dice roll. After the players defeat the Whomp, they can continue.
 
====''Mario Party: The Top 100''====
Whomps reappear in ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'' in the minigame [[Sphere Factor]] from ''[[Mario Party 7]]'', serving the same roles as they did in the original.
{{br|left}}
====''Super Mario Party''====
[[File:SMP Domino Prediction.jpg|thumb|A Whomp predicting the winner on Whomp's Domino Ruins in ''Super Mario Party'']]
Whomps appear in ''[[Super Mario Party]]'' as non-playable characters on the [[Whomp's Domino Ruins]] board, periodically moving around the stage and blocking off certain paths. Players must pay a coin toll in order to make them move. Whomps can also appear as obstacles in [[Follow the Money]], and one can also appear alongside a [[Thwomp]] and a [[Sumo Bro]] in [[Rattle and Hmmm]]. When speaking to [[Bowser]] and [[Bowser Jr.]], they have special dialogue for them.
 
====''Mario Party Superstars''====
Whomps reappear in ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]'' in the returning [[Horror Land]] and [[Space Land]] boards from ''[[Mario Party 2]]'', serving the same roles as they did in the original, although they now only move when paid.
 
====''Super Mario Party Jamboree''====
Whomps reappear in ''[[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]'' in the returning [[Domination]] minigame from ''[[Mario Party 4]]''. Unlike ''Mario Party 4'', they have their modern appearance. A Whomp also appears in the Thrift Store event in [[Rainbow Galleria]] and it can sometimes appear alongside a [[Snifit]] during the Runaway race cars event in [[Roll 'em Raceway]]. Artwork of Whomps can also appear on the balls ridden by [[Toad (species)|Toads]] in the minigame [[Big-Top Quiz]].
 
===''Mario Golf'' series===
[[File:MGTT Whomp Screenshot.png|thumb|left|A Whomp in ''Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour'']]
Whomps make two physical appearances in the [[Mario Golf (series)|''Mario Golf'' series]]. In ''[[Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour]]'', Whomps appear in Hole 16 and 17 of [[Bowser Badlands]], where if they squish the golf ball, the player is given a penalty stroke. Whomps behave identically to [[Thwomp]]s, except Whomps disappear after falling. In ''[[Mario Golf: Super Rush]]'', Whomps are an obstacle in Battle Golf and the [[Bowser Highlands]] course, serving as barriers for both balls and players.
 
In ''[[Mario Golf: World Tour]]'', Whomp is one of the names that can be seen on the tournament scoreboard.
{{br|left}}
===''Paper Mario: Sticker Star''===
[[File:Whomp PM3DS E3 2010 screenshot.png|thumb|An early screenshot of a Whomp, in ''Paper Mario: Sticker Star'']]
Whomps make their ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' debut in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]''. Originally, Whomps were going to appear as regular enemies, but in the final product only one Whomp appears, during the second phase of the final battle with Bowser. During this portion of the battle, the Whomp defends Bowser from any attacks (including those that hit multiple enemies). It attacks by walking up to Mario and either swinging its arms at him or slamming down on top of him; whenever Bowser attacks it moves aside, briefly exposing then covering the scissors image on its back. The Whomp only takes one HP of damage for every attack, but is toppled whenever an [[Eekhammer]] is used on it, allowing it to be temporarily damaged normally (using any other kind of hammer causes it to stumble, but recover). This is the only game where Whomps can be defeated without ground-pounding on them, not counting in the [[Mario Party series|''Mario Party'' series]], and when the player is invincible.
{{br|left}}
 
===''Mario & Luigi'' series===
====''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam''====
[[Papercraft|Papercraft Whomps]] appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'' in the Papercraft Fire Mario segment. They attack like normal Whomps, by slamming down on top of Papercraft Fire Mario. The bandages on their back are their weak spot.
 
====''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey''====
A piece of dialogue in the ''[[Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'' mode of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'' claims that some [[Blorbs|blorbed]] [[Goomba]]s have knocked several of them down.<ref>{{cite|author=aWiibo|url=www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5MoeaN3hk4|language=en|title=Bowser Jr.'s Journey - Full Intro (English)|date=January 10, 2019|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=May 19, 2024}}</ref>
 
===''Mario Tennis Aces''===
[[File:DefeatBowsersMinions.png|thumb|left|A Whomp in ''Mario Tennis Aces'']]
In ''[[Mario Tennis Aces]]'', a Whomp is fought in the mission [[Defeat Bowser's Minions!]] at the Castle Gates during Adventure mode. The enemy is encountered during the third phase of the mission and Mario has to damage it by knocking [[Bullet Bill]]s and [[Mechakoopa]]s at it using his tennis racket. However, the Whomp attempts to sidestep Mario's shots.
{{br}}
 
===''Dr. Mario World''===
A single Whomp appears in the background of [[World 11 (Dr. Mario World)|World 11]] in ''[[Dr. Mario World]]'' after the world is cleared.
 
The [[Whomp King]] appears as an assistant that can be obtained as a reward in versus mode in at least Tier 9.
 
===''Mario Kart'' series===
[[File:MK8DBerlinByways1.jpg|thumb|Whomps in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'']]
Whomps made their ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series debut in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' as obstacles filling the gaps of the [[Berlin Wall]] section of [[Tour Berlin Byways|Berlin Byways]] and in {{wp|Plaza Mayor, Madrid|Plaza Mayor}} in [[Madrid Drive|Madrid Drive 3R]]. They fall on the track as racers drive by, flattening any racer caught under them but providing [[Jump Boost]]s to those that drive on top of them as they lie down. When lying down, Whomps are invulnerable; otherwise, they can be taken out for bonus points by hitting them with a [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]], [[Bowser's Shell]], [[Super Horn]], [[Giga Bob-omb]] or a [[Super Bell]], or by driving into them while under the effects of [[Frenzy]] mode, a [[Super Star]], a [[Mega Mushroom]], or a [[Bullet Bill]]. Notably, this is the first time since ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'' in which the redesigned Whomps' expressions become more aggressive-looking before they fall down.
 
Berlin Byways returns in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' in the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]'', bringing Whomps back with it. They are once again filling in gaps of the Berlin Wall, and function the same as they do in ''Mario Kart Tour''. They can still be used for Jump Boosts. Their expressions have become more exaggerated to look even more disfigured and unfocused, notably having mismatched eyes.
{{br}}
 
==General information==
===Physical appearance===
Whomps are somewhat similar to [[Thwomp]]s, resembling faced stone slabs. They have arms and legs, and in their debut, ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', their hands are purple ball-shaped, a relic of a {{file link|SM64 Whomp Proto.png|prototype design}}'s body color. In its [[Super Mario 64 DS|remake]] and later games, their hands are bare and mitten-like. Like Thwomps, they have red eyes, though Whomps' appear to be glowing over black sclera.
 
Their faces seem to be distorted or disfigured from their impacts against the ground, and their faces seem to be more deeply carved and also more three-dimensional, as opposed to the Thwomps' flat faces. In most titles, Whomps have adhesive bandages in an "X" shape on their backs, but in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', they have a carved circle with the Ground Pound symbol on it. Whomps also usually appear with five fairly loose teeth.
 
In their early appearances, Whomps bore a somewhat narrow shape. In ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', their bodies became wider overall, but this has been reverted since ''Mario Party: Island Tour''. Their design has gotten increasingly more crude in how it appears to be chiseled.
 
===Speech===
Whomps make low grunting sounds in the majority of their appearances, varying in tone depending on what they are feeling. In the ''Mario Party'' series, Whomps are given text dialogue; starting with ''Mario Party 4'', their speech is "gangster"-style. However, in ''Mario Party Superstars'', their words are spoken by [[Toad]] or the narration.
