Template:Character-infobox Template:Quote2 The Rubber Band[1] is a member of the Legion of Stationery who guards the end of the blue streamer and a boss that appears in Paper Mario: The Origami King. Unlike the other Legion of Stationery members, Rubber Band has a vaguely humanoid appearance, while being entirely composed out of rubber bands.
It attacks Mario by flinging him with its rubber bands, which seem to deplete its own body. Rubber Band uses its rubber bands to interfere with the battle ring; getting rid of the symbols needed for Mario to get close to it and flinging Mario in a different direction. It has the ability to recall its lost rubber bands and restore large amounts of its HP. The player can work around this tactic by using the 1,000-Fold Arms to stretch it and sling its rubber bands out of the arena. When stripped of all its smaller rubber bands down to 1 HP, it is revealed to be a giant yellow rubber band with Olly's insignia on its side. Several Toads in the audience are visibly unnerved by its uncanny appearance. One of the Toads in the arena tells Mario to jump in order to dodge its flinging attack.
