Fracktail

Fracktail is a boss in the upcoming game Super Paper Mario, found in a desert. He has spiral eyes and red skin, and he can burrow into the sand and go underground. He will surprise Mario and shoot out of the ground, and then fly in the air. Even though he can float, he has no wings. Frackitail slightly resembles a Chinese dragon.

In order to defeat Fracktail, Mario must jump on top of his long back while the creature flies into the air, then pick up one of the enemies crawling around on his back and throw the enemies at the serpent's red orb on his antenna. He will then explode into bones.

He looks a bit like Hooktail from the second Paper Mario game. It is possible that he is a member of the 'tail' family (consisting of Hooktail, Gloomtail, and Bonetail).
