“I'm such a genius, it scares me sometimes. No wonder I'm so important!”
Yaridovich, Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars

Yaridovich is one of Smithy's lieutenants in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, and a master of disguise. He is a shape-shifter and can assume many sizes and shapes. Just like Smithy, Yaridovich can even impersonate whole populations by splitting himself into multiple bodies. However, Yaridovich cannot change his color, and as such, any form he takes exists in shades of gray and red. In his true form, Yaridovich resembles a spear. His name itself comes from a Japanese spear known as a "yari". It is also a Russian patronym that means "Son of Yarid."
