Buzzar is an enemy that was hired by Bowser to stop Mario during the events of Paper Mario, where he resides in a nest at the end of Mt. Rugged with a brood of eggs. His name comes from "buzzard", a term used to refer to North American vultures, which he is modeled after, even speaking with an American Southern accent, using words like "yer" instead of "you're". Although in the German version of the game, he speaks with a Bavarian accent instead.
In Paper Mario, Buzzar guards the mountain bridge, and stops Mario for questioning. Mario can claim to be himself, Princess Peach or Luigi. If Mario is honest, Buzzar attacks him and a battle commences; if Mario says he's Princess Peach, Buzzar scoffs at the notion and attacks him anyway. But finally, if Mario claims to be Luigi, then Buzzar isn't sure judging by the bounty poster, so he will simply let him pass, as Bowser only told him to stop Mario and he doesn't want to chance it. This can be done indefinitely, ultimately making Buzzar an optional mini-boss. After being defeated, Buzzar jumps over the edge of the mountain, never to return. Whether he is fought or not, Buzzar is seen in the ending credits, at which points his chicks are shown hatching from their eggs.
Buzzar is mentioned in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. The entrepreneur Lumpy actually travels to Mt. Rugged, and has his backpack stolen by Buzzar. Mario can read about this event in Lumpy's diary.
