Exor, the mighty sword-ship.
“HALT! Who goes there!? A Trespasser! The castle now belongs to us. The Smithy Gang. This will be our first step in taking over the world. And if it wasn't for nosey characters like you, we'd practically own this world! Let's see you deal with this!”
Exor, Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars

Exor is a giant sword-like character and a member of the Smithy Gang. Exor is actually composed of four parts, his Left Eye, his Right Eye, his mouth (which for some reason is named Neosquid), and the skull-shaped pommel (named Exor) that controls the entire body. Exor is used as an inter-dimensional gateway between Mario's dimension, home of the Mushroom Kingdom, and Smithy's dimension, where Smithy's Factory is located. Consequently, Exor can transport an infinite number of troops and weapons for the Smithy Gang, as they are held in a separate dimension, not in an enclosed space.

The iconic and recurring image of Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars is Exor embedded in Bowser's Keep.

History

Exor was a vital component of Smithy's invasion of Mushroom World during the events of Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. Exor, on his descent to Bowser's Keep, shattered the Star Road, breaking off seven Star Pieces, thus eliminating the power of wishes from the world. Exor crashes into Bowser's Keep, sending Mario, Bowser, and Toadstool (who were battling in the castle) flying to other regions of the world. The keep is occupied by the Smithy Gang, and is used as Smithy's base of operations on Mushroom World.

A scene of the appearance of Exor remaining on Bowser's Keep while Bowser and Princess Toadstool are knocked off. Mario glares at the very castle.
The scene where Exor crashes into Bowser's Keep, seen in promotional artwork.

Mario returns to Bowser's Keep in an attempt to find Princess Toadstool. Instead, he finds a monstrously huge sword implanted in the castle. Exor claims the keep in the name of the Smithy Gang, and soon destroys the bridge linking Bowser's Keep to the rest of the world. Mario must find another way in.

Eventually, after collecting six Star Pieces, Mario returns to Bowser's Keep via a bus driver from Nimbus Land. After Mario defeats Boomer (on the chandeliers he fought Bowser on in the beginning of the game), Mario and his party are brought to the roof of the castle. Once there, Mario and his allies engage Exor.

Exor is made up of four parts, his two eyes, his mouth, oddly named Neosquid, and Exor himself, the skull-like hilt of the sword. All four parts attack separately and can be destroyed, but only Exor must be defeated and the other parts will regenerate after a few turns. Exor's eyes will protect him from damage, one must be destroyed to break the shield. It is recommended to destroy the right eye, it attacks with powerful magic and is also physically weaker, concentrated attacks will frequently destroy it it one turn. Exor himself then will receive damage normally. After that, the destroyed eye(s) will regenerate and Exor will be protected again. On defeat, Exor begin to flash and shake, and the Neosquid opens, pulling Mario and company into the Factory, home base of the Smithy Gang.

After Smithy is defeated, the resulting explosion sends Mario and friends flying out of the Neosquid and landing safely on nearby Vista Hill. Exor dissolves into nothing, Ending the Smity Gang's reign of terror. Mario and his friends then go their separate ways, and the game ends.

Trivia

  • According to the Psychopath thoughts, Exor has astigmatism in his right eye and is blind in the left one.
  • Exor is the only Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars boss (aside from the Yaridovich clones) that is not immune to the special effect of the Geno Whirl attack (which does 9999 damage if executed correctly and defeats him in one turn).
  • Exor's name may refer to Excalibur, the sword from the story of King Arthur.
  • Although the face that holds the Neosquid, Right Eye, and Left Eye is actually Exor, due to the Neosquid moving at the beginning of the game, the in-battle calls the non-mouthed skeleton brain Exor.
