Czar Dragon

"Flamin' hot, right at ya!"

- Czar Dragon

The Czar Dragon is a dragon made out of many Pyrospheres and the boss of the Barrel Volcano, who is guarding the sixth Star Piece in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. This dragon is a master of fire magic, though he also knows as substantial number of earth magic spells, including the misleadingly named Water Blast earth attack. After Mario and his party defeat the Czar Dragon, the monster immediately returns from the grave as the menacing Zombone.

Trivia

 * The Czar Dragon resembles, and perhaps inspired the creation of, the Boss Hooktail from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, and the red Dragon from Yoshi's Story. The Czar Dragon also bears resemblance to the Blargg species from the earlier game, Super Mario World.
 * In Final Fantasy VI (also by Square Enix), there is an unused superboss of the same name. It was brought back as "Kaiser Dragon" in the Game Boy Advance remake, though an exact copy of Czardragon still exist, possibly to avoid bugs.
 * "Czar" is a Russian title meaning "Emperor," derived from the title "Caesar" used during the Roman Empire. "Kaiser," the Japanese name for the dragon, comes from the German word for "Emperor," which was also derived from the title of "Caesar".
 * An unused enemy named "Magidragon" has an identical appearance to the Czar Dragon.
