The Iron Adonis Twins, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

The Iron Adonis Twins, also known as The Armored Harriers, is a team consisting of the only two Iron Clefts that appear in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. They are brothers, with older one wearing red shoes and the younger wearing green shoes, referencing Mario and Luigi's primary colors. This combination of red and green appears often in the Super Mario franchise.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Initially, the Iron Adonis Twins are ranked 10th in Glitz Pit. They hold a grudge against Mario after Grubba tells them some trash talk that he accredits to Mario (namely the reference to outies running in the family, since their mother apparently had an outie). The Iron Adonis Twins are made of iron that Mario cannot break through. He is only able to defeat these two Iron Clefts with the help of Yoshi, who is able to take an enemy into his mouth with his tongue and spit them back at the other enemy with his Gulp attack.

The Iron Adonis Twins are downgraded to the Minor League after Mario and his allies beat them. They form a grudge against Mario and attempt revenge by ambushing him after he reaches 7th rank.

When Mario has to visit the Minor League locker room while searching for the Dubious Documents, the Armored Harriers threaten to fight outside the ring.

Despite the twins' grudge against Mario, they, along with Jolene, King K, Rawk Hawk, and a few others cheer him on in his battle against the Shadow Queen.

Field Tattles

Outside of battle, Goombella can use Tattle on the Iron Adonis Twins only when Mario revisits the minor-league locker room for a mission given by Jolene (under the alias of "X") after receiving the Super Hammer.

Red shoes
  • "That's the older of the Iron Adonis Twins. You can tell he's older by his red shoes. I don't think they took their loss to you too well, Mario. I'd be careful around them..."
Green shoes
  • "That's the younger of the Iron Adonis Twins. He and his brother totally hate you. Is it a rule that older brothers wear red shoes and younger brothers wear green?"
