A '''Torion''' is a fast-moving, carnivorous fish in the game ''[[Super Mario Land]]''. They are weak against the [[Marine Pop|Marine Pop's]] torpedoes and are defeated after only one successful hit. However, they would only award [[Mario]] with a mere 100 [[point]]s each. Torions are found only in World 2-3 of the [[Muda Kingdom]], the Marine Pop's level. Torions always swim in groups of three. According to the instruction manual of ''Super Mario Land'', [[Honen]]s are undead Torions that were eaten by [[Tatanga]]. The actual appearance of a Torion is subject to debate, as one official artwork depicts the fish with a dorsal fin while the in-game sprites lack them.
