'''Gao'''<ref>''Super Mario Land'' English instruction booklet, page 14.</ref><ref>M. Arakawa. Nintendo ''Game Boy'' Player's Guide. Page 5.</ref> are fire-breathing, {{wp|sphinx}}-like enemies that are located within the borders of the [[Birabuto Kingdom]] in ''[[Super Mario Land]]''. They stay in one place and shoot fireballs at [[Mario]]. These fireballs can even be shot backwards, and therefore Mario is not safe while they are on the screen. As with most enemies, they can be defeated after a single [[jump]] or [[Superball Mario|Superball]], awarding Mario with 800 [[point]]s. [[King Totomesu]] is the ruler of the Gao. They are only seen towards the end of the stage in [[World 1-3 (Super Mario Land)|World 1-3]], along with throughout the stage in [[World 1-1 (Super Mario Land)|World 1-1]] on subsequent playthroughs. In appearance, they look like a mix between a pyramid sphinx and a lion. An enemy from the [[Chai Kingdom]], [[Nyololin]], has the same behavior. | |||
In ''[[Super Mario Land (manga)|Super Mario Land]]'' manga, only two Gao appear towards the end of the pyramid stage, where they are chained to the ground. Using [[Mekakuribō]]'s propeller-antennas, Mario flies over them without fighting them. | |||
