Rubber Band

Rubber Band is a member of the Legion of Stationery who guards the end of the blue streamer and a boss that appears in Paper Mario: The Origami King. Unlike the other Legion of Stationery members, while Rubber Band itself is a singular large rubber band, it initially appears to be a vague humanoid entirely composed out of rubber bands. Several Toads in the audience are visibly unnerved by its uncanny appearance.

Battle
Rubber Band, prior to Mario moving, uses 'Bumper Bands', flinging rubber bands from its body to replace most, if not all of the up and down panels on the board with rubber bands pointing in the same direction, depleting its HP slightly in the process. These rubber bands, when touched, send Mario one space in the direction the bands point and disappear.

Rubber Band is impervious to normal attacks, and the rubber bands they will deplete from his body will simply be pulled back to the boss to heal it when it begins its turn with the move 'Pullback', along with the remaining Bumper Bands. Instead Mario must use the 1,000 Fold Arms to grab as many bands from the top of its head as he can, pull them back as far as he can, and release, causing the lost rubber bands to fall beyond the reach of Pullback.

On Rubber Band's turn, if Mario is close to the boss, it will attempt to trap Mario in a Rubber Bind, launching three unrecoverable rubber bands at Mario in either a straight or arced trajectory, which, if not blocked, deal 6-7 damage and cause him to be unable to block the remaining bands. The next turn, Mario will lose his turn, and Rubber Band will use Trapped Snapback, dealing 18 damage to the defenseless Mario.

If Mario is too far from the boss, Rubber Band will instead use 'Snapback', launching an rubber band at Mario at high velocity for 16 damage, without depleting its own health.

When Rubber Band's HP is down to 1, Rubber Band is only a single large rubber band, and is unable to recover any more rubber bands. At this point, it can only use Solo Snapback, dealing 49 damage. (38 if blocked) Mario must finish the battle by using the 1,000 Fold Arms to grab Rubber Band in 60 seconds, while it retaliates by attempting to dodge and attacking Mario every so often for 22 damage. Once Mario has grabbed the band, he must then perform a rush attack by slamming it onto the floor, and finally, end the battle by flinging it into the background.
