Reznor

Reznors are fire-breathing dinosaurs that made their first debut appearance in Super Mario World. According to the instruction manual, they were cursed by Bowser. They are bosses that Mario and Luigi fight in fortresses found everywhere on Dinosaur Land. They are now found in the Mushroom Kingdom since their next appearance in New Super Mario Bros. 2.

''Super Mario World
In Super Mario World, Reznors spit fireballs at the player, who must hit their platforms from the bottom to defeat them. After two Reznors are knocked off their platforms, the floor will break away, exposing the molten lava below. If the player does not defeat the rest of the Reznors promptly, they will have to jump onto one of the abandoned platforms and fight from there. It is, however, possible to defeat all four without doing so.

They are the bosses of the many fortresses scattered through the areas of Dinosaur Land; the Vanilla Fortress, the Forest Fortress, the Chocolate Fortress, and the Valley Fortress.

''New Super Mario Bros. 2
Reznor will be appearing in the upcoming Nintendo 3DS title, New Super Mario Bros. 2. This time, the platforms they're standing on are the Rectangular Coin Blocks, which can be hit for three coins. After a short peroid of time, a Reznor will roar and the bridge Mario stands on will start to collapse, much like in Super Mario World. Unlike in Super Mario World, though, Reznor also appears in pairs as well as quartets. This confirms that there will be more than one appearance of the Reznors in New Super Mario Bros. 2, as both pairs and quartets have been seen. They are most likely the bosses of fortresses.

Super Mario Adventures
In Super Mario Adventures, several Reznors are shown to inhabit the basement of the Koopalings' Tower, attacking anyone who is dumped into the basement. These Reznor were apparently destroyed when, after attacking Princess Toadstool, Friendly Floyd, Mario, Luigi, Toad, and Yoshi, the Reznors ignited a bomb held by Princess Toadstool, blowing up the Koopalings' Tower.

Later in Super Mario Adventures, several Reznors, riding their spinning platforms, can be seen at Bowser's wedding to Princess Toadstool.

Super Mario-Kun
Reznors appear in the Super Mario World adaption of the Japanese manga, Super Mario-Kun. They attempt to spin very quickly in order that Mario and his friends cannot hit them, but due to the speed, they fall off their platforms, thus making Mario and his friends win the fight.
