'''Stairface Ogres''' are enormous [[Whomp]]-like enemy creatures wielding a stamp-like mallet found predominantly in [[Bowser's Kingdom]] within ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''. They are called the locals of Bowser's Kingdom within the in-game brochure. Their primary means of attack is to smash their mallet down where [[Mario]] is standing, which allows Mario to climb up their mallets. Before swinging down their mallets, they telegraph where they are about to attack Mario with a large glowing red square in front of them. Stairface Ogres can be defeated by performing a [[Ground Pound]] on top of their head or by poking the glowing hole on their forehead while controlling a [[Pokio]]. Once a Stairface Ogre is defeated, it explodes and makes a wailing sound. | '''Stairface Ogres''' are enormous [[Whomp]]-like enemy creatures wielding a stamp-like mallet found predominantly in [[Bowser's Kingdom]] within ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''.

Their faces bear a striking resemblance to that of a [[Thwomp]], and they seem to be based off of the mythological {{wp|oni}}, which is sometimes seen as a Japanese counterpart to the ogre. Additionally, their manner of attack and defeat is similar to that of a Whomp as well.

The mission "[[Infiltrate Bowser's Castle!]]" in Bowser's Kingdom specifically requires Mario to defeat a Stairface Ogre to progress. Additionally, Stairface Ogres can be used to break blocks, which is useful for revealing items (if any) inside the blocks. | The mission "[[Infiltrate Bowser's Castle!]]" in Bowser's Kingdom specifically requires Mario to defeat a Stairface Ogre to progress.
