'''Smithy''' is the main antagonist and final boss of ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|its Nintendo Switch remake]], and the titular leader of the [[Smithy Gang]], an organization that attempts to rule over [[Mario|Mario's]] [[Mario World|world]] during the events of the game. In order to do this, Smithy tried to get rid of the power of [[wish]]es from the world, and, in its stead, fill the world with weapons. He is a tall, dark-gray mechanical creature that wears a gold crown and has an extremely long white beard; the Nintendo Player's Guide has compared his appearance to that of [[Santa Claus]].<ref>''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'' Nintendo Player's Guide, page 104.</ref> He hails from another | '''Smithy''' is the main antagonist and final boss of ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|its Nintendo Switch remake]], and the titular leader of the [[Smithy Gang]], an organization that attempts to rule over [[Mario|Mario's]] [[Mario World|world]] during the events of the game.

In his world, he resides in his [[Factory (Super Mario RPG)|Factory]], where he creates anthropomorphic weapons which he uses against other [[world]]s. It is also implied during the final battle that multiple versions of him were made, and that there were possibly plans to mass-produce him, due to the various heads littered in his final battle arena. | ||

Smithy then sends his lieutenants to retrieve the [[Star Piece (Super Mario RPG)|Star Piece]]s after learning the pieces have potential to restore wishes to the world. Smithy did not want anyone returning the Star Pieces to Star Road, as the road's recovery would allow the power of wishes to counter the power of the Smithy Gang's weapons and interfere with his attempt of world conquest. | Smithy then sends his lieutenants to retrieve the [[Star Piece (Super Mario RPG)|Star Piece]]s after learning the pieces have potential to restore wishes to the world.

They then arrive at Bowser's Keep and enters Smithy's world via Exor. Once they confront Smithy, he is busy creating new weapons and is revealed that he has the last Star Piece embedded in his body, presumably to prevent anyone from restoring the power of wishes to the world. Smithy calmly asks Mario to turn over his Star Pieces, where Mario refuses and battles Smithy instead. | ||

Smithy wields a giant metal sledgehammer in battle, which he uses with his right hand. The fingers of his left hand have been fitted with small projectile launchers which he uses to fire bullets at Mario and his allies. Some of Smithy's magical powers involve summoning a [[Sledge|giant wooden sledgehammer]] to crush Mario and his allies and summoning [[Meteor Swarm|meteors]]. In battle, Smithy is also aided by [[Smelter]]. Smelter produces molten metal from his mouth, which Smithy then shapes into [[Shyper]]s, who will immediately enter the battle and begin attacking Mario's party. | Smithy wields a giant metal sledgehammer in battle, which he uses with his right hand.
