Bowyer

Bowyer is one of Smithyâ€™s lieutenants in the game Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. Bowyer resembles a bow, and attacks by firing his minions (called Aeroes) at his opponents.

Bowyer was ordered by Smithy to prepare Rose Town for a military occupation and to locate the second Star Piece. As such, Bowyer set up camp in the heart of the Forest Maze and began firing poison-tipped arrows at Rose Town. When a person was hit with an arrow, they would become paralyzed and remain frozen like statues. Simultaneously, Bowyer ordered his Aero minions to search the forest for the second Star Piece.

Eventually, Bowyer recovers the Star Piece, but is confronted by a strange, blue garbed warrior named Geno. At the same time, Mario and Mallow arrive to stop Bowyer, the source of the arrows plaguing Rose Town. As a result, the three warriors team up to battle the maniacal monster.

While Bowyerâ€™s main attack is firing arrows, the monster is also a master of lighting magic (much like Mallow). Additionally, Bowyer has one of the cleverest tactics in the game: he can disable buttons on the playerâ€™s controllers, meaning that Mario and his allies will be prevented from using regular attacks, special attacks, or items until another button is disabled. Ultimately, Mario, Mallow, and Geno defeat the mechanical monstrosity and recover the second Star Piece.

Later, Mario and company encountered several mass-produced Bowyer copies in Smithy Factory.
