In ''Super Mario World'', Reznors spit [[fireball]]s at the player. [[Cape Mario|Caped Mario]] or Caped Luigi can dissipate the Reznors' fire with his Cape. Mario must hit their platforms from below or shoot fireballs at them to defeat them. The player has a limited amount of time available to knock off the first and second Reznors and then [[jump]] to one of their platforms as the floor begins breaking away, exposing the molten [[lava]] below at the start of the battle. If the player does not defeat the rest of the Reznors promptly, they will have to jump onto one of the abandoned platforms and fight from there. It is, however, possible to defeat all four without doing so.
A group of four Reznors are fought as bosses in [[Vanilla Fortress]], the [[Forest Fortress]], the [[Chocolate Fortress]], and the [[Valley Fortress]] in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. They are faced in a room with a bridge over [[lava]], standing on four platforms mounted on a suspended, rotating set of wooden planks bearing their name, spitting [[fireball]]s in the direction of the player, who can dissipate these projectiles with the swipe of a cape in [[Cape Mario|caped form]]. To defeat the Reznors, the player must knock them off their platforms either by hitting their platforms from underneath or by striking them with [[fireball]]s. Once two of the Reznors are defeated, the bridge below gradually breaks away starting from the sides, leaving the player to either try and defeat the other two Reznors before the entire bridge collapses, otherwise, the player can jump on one of the vacated platforms to continue the fight from there.


Reznors are the bosses of four fortresses scattered through the areas of Dinosaur Land: the [[Vanilla Fortress]], the [[Forest Fortress]], the [[Chocolate Fortress]], and the [[Valley Fortress]]. The four Reznor sets all behave the same.
Prototype assets reveal "Bunbun" as a tentative phrase on Reznor's sign, possibly indicating that it was [[Boom Boom#Names in other languages|Boom Boom]] earlier in development.<ref>{{cite|author=Frieze|date=July 24, 2020|url=x.com/IsoFrieze/status/1286742995195265024|title=X post featuring prototype ''Super Mario World'' assets|X|accessdate=July 25, 2020}}</ref>

Reznors reappear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' as the game's [[tower]] bosses, and their battle theme is a cover of the ''Super Mario World'' boss battle theme. They now roar before the battle starts. Their appearance has changed slightly, with their lower jaws and belly having a lighter tone, and their heads redesigned to better resemble those of ''Triceratops''. The platforms they stand on are now coin-giving [[? Block|Long ? Blocks]], and the word "REZNOR" on the boards behind the wheel is gone. Unlike in ''Super Mario World'', where four of them always appear on a single four-platform wheel, Reznors appear either in groups of two or four, and their wheel and bridge setups can also vary. After defeating half of them, the remaining Reznors roar and stomp their blocks, causing the bridges near them to collapse, much like in ''Super Mario World''. They do not attack as frequently as they did in their debut game, and the bridges do not collapse as quickly. Reznors can be defeated when Mario hits the block underneath them, hits them with six [[Fire Flower|fireballs]] or one [[Gold Flower|gold fireball]], or simply touches them while under the effects of the [[Invincibility Leaf]]. If defeated by a gold fireball, they will give thirty coins each.

They can also be taken out by one [[Gold Flower|gold fireball]] (which yields 30 coins), or contact with a player under the effects of the [[Invincibility Leaf]].

Reznors (alternatively pluralized as Reznor),[1] also called Reznor Rhinos[2] or Rhino Dinos,[3] are mini-bosses introduced in Super Mario World. They are fire-breathing Triceratops that were cursed by Bowser.[1] Reznors are named after Trent Reznor of the industrial rock band Nine Inch Nails.[4]

History[edit]

Super Mario series[edit]

Super Mario World[edit]

A Reznor, as first depicted for Super Mario World

A group of four Reznors are fought as bosses in Vanilla Fortress, the Forest Fortress, the Chocolate Fortress, and the Valley Fortress in Super Mario World. They are faced in a room with a bridge over lava, standing on four platforms mounted on a suspended, rotating set of wooden planks bearing their name, spitting fireballs in the direction of the player, who can dissipate these projectiles with the swipe of a cape in caped form. To defeat the Reznors, the player must knock them off their platforms either by hitting their platforms from underneath or by striking them with fireballs. Once two of the Reznors are defeated, the bridge below gradually breaks away starting from the sides, leaving the player to either try and defeat the other two Reznors before the entire bridge collapses, otherwise, the player can jump on one of the vacated platforms to continue the fight from there.

Prototype assets reveal "Bunbun" as a tentative phrase on Reznor's sign, possibly indicating that it was Boom Boom earlier in development.[5]

New Super Mario Bros. 2[edit]

Reznor
A Reznor's updated design for New Super Mario Bros. 2

Reznors reappear in New Super Mario Bros. 2, serving as the game's tower bosses. Their appearance has changed slightly, with their lower jaws and belly having a lighter tone, and their heads redesigned to better resemble those of Triceratops. The platforms they stand on are now coin-giving Long ? Blocks with a width of three blocks rather than two, and the word "REZNOR" on the boards behind the wheel is gone. Reznors roar when the player character enters the boss room, and the battle starts. Their theme is now a cover of the Super Mario World boss battle theme. Unlike in Super Mario World, which only features a group of four on a single four-platform wheel, Reznors can appear either in groups of two or four, and their wheel and bridge setups can also vary. They do not attack as frequently as before, the fireballs they spit move slower, they roar and stomp their blocks when half of them are defeated to force the bridges in their room to collapse, and the bridges do not collapse as quickly. While they can still be knocked off by striking their platforms from below, it now takes six fireballs to defeat one Reznor. They can also be taken out by one gold fireball (which yields 30 coins), or contact with a player under the effects of the Invincibility Leaf.

Level appearances
  • World 1-Tower: Two Reznors on one wheel with four Long ? Blocks.
  • World 2-Tower: Four Reznors on one wheel with four Long ? Blocks.
  • World 3-Tower: Same as World 2-Tower.
  • World 4-Tower: Four Reznors on two wheels; two Reznors per wheel, each having four Long ? Blocks. One bridge is positioned to the left of one wheel, while another is positioned to the right of the other wheel.
  • World 5-Tower: Four Reznors on two wheels; two Reznors per wheel, with each wheel having four Long ? Blocks. One bridge is positioned between the two wheels.
  • World 6-Tower: Four Reznors on one giant wheel with eight Long ? Blocks.

Mario Golf: World Tour[edit]

Although Reznors themselves do not appear in Mario Golf: World Tour, a Reznor costume is available for Miis to wear, and they can also use a ball and set of golf clubs that are based on a Reznor.

Super Mario Adventures[edit]

In Super Mario Adventures, several Reznors are shown to inhabit the basement of the Koopalings' Tower, attacking anyone who is dumped into the basement. These Reznor were apparently destroyed when, after attacking Princess Toadstool, Friendly Floyd, Mario, Luigi, Toad, and Yoshi, the Reznor ignited a bomb held by Princess Toadstool, blowing up the Koopalings' Tower.

Later in Super Mario Adventures, several Reznors, riding their spinning platforms, can be seen at Bowser's wedding to Princess Toadstool.

Super Mario-kun[edit]

Reznor from page 84, volume 4 of Super Mario-kun.
Reznors as featured in Super Mario-Kun

Reznors appear in the Super Mario World adaption of the Japanese manga Super Mario-kun.

In the second 4-koma of the first volume, they attempt to spin very quickly in order to make it harder to hit them, but due to the speed, they fall off their platforms from dizziness.

They reappear in volume 4, where Mario tosses Yoshi to their contraption, making three of them fall. The remaining Reznor attacks Mario directly by charging at him, knocking Mario onto a Switch Palace. Inside, there are many Spinies and a Gray P Switch. Mario uses the switch to turn the enemies into Gray Coins, score multiple lives, and clone himself into Mario x99, who then defeat the Reznor.

Minecraft[edit]

In the Super Mario Mash-up in Minecraft, Ravagers are replaced by Reznors.

LEGO Super Mario[edit]

Reznors appear in the LEGO Super Mario set 71390: Reznor Knockdown.

Profiles and statistics[edit]

Super Mario World[edit]
