'''Kinklinks''' are a variety of [[Chain Chomp|Chomp]]s that are used to hold up chandeliers in [[Bowser's Keep]]. During the events of ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', [[Mario]] and [[Bowser]] fought on a pair of chandeliers, each one held up by a Kinklink. Bowser proved too difficult to defeat, so Mario (with some timely advice from [[Princess Peach]]) attacked the Kinklink holding up Bowser's chandelier instead. As a result, the Kinklink dropped the chandelier and (more importantly) the [[Koopa Troopa|Koopa]] king. However, as Bowser fell, he started to throw [[Hammer]]s at Mario's Kinklink. Eventually, the second Kinklink dropped Mario, sending the hero plummeting to the ground below (or so that was what Bowser planned, because Mario managed to get back up by stomping on Bowser). After the [[Smithy Gang]] took over Bowser's Keep, the Kinklinks were replaced by the [[Shy Guy]] [[Chandeli-Ho]]s.

==Trivia==
In the English version of the game, the [[Fake Chomp|Chomp Shell]], a weapon usable by Bowser, is said to be the shell of a Kinklink, while [[Orb User]]s' [[Thought Peek|thought]] states that they hate Kinklinks. However, this appears to be an error on the translation's part, as in the original Japanese text, the more geographically appropriate Chomp is used in both instances. This may have been overcorrection due to a line earlier in the game, when Bowser addresses his Kinklink as Chomp in the Japanese version.
*According to [[Orb User]]'s [[Psychopath]] thought, they hate Kinklinks. The reason for this is unknown.

Chaindeliers (originally known as Kinklinks) are a variety of Chain Chomps that are used to hold up chandeliers in Bowser's Keep. In Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars and its remake, Mario and Bowser fight on a pair of chandeliers, each one held up by a Chaindelier. Bowser proves too difficult to defeat, so Mario (with some advice from Princess Peach) attacks the Chaindelier holding up Bowser's chandelier instead. After it is defeated, the screen flashes white as, with an exception of the Switch version, the fire in the chandeliers' candles goes out. The Chaindelier then drops the chandelier along with Bowser. However, as he falls, he starts to throw hammers at Mario's Chaindelier. Eventually, the second Chaindelier drops Mario, sending him plummeting to the ground below, though he manages to get back up by jumping on Bowser.

During the battle with Boomer, who is also fought on the chandeliers, the Chaindeliers are replaced with Shyndeliers.

In the English version of the game, the Chomp Shell, a weapon usable by Bowser, is said to be the shell of a Kinklink, while Orb Users' thought states that they hate Kinklinks. However, this appears to be an error on the translation's part, as in the original Japanese text, the more geographically appropriate Chomp is used in both instances. This may have been overcorrection due to a line earlier in the game, when Bowser addresses his Kinklink as Chomp in the Japanese version.

  1. ^ This thought is present within the game's coding, but because Mallow is not available at this point in the game, it goes unused. Through hacking methods, it can be seen.
