'''Domino''' is a jester and high-ranking member of the [[Smithy Gang]], and a boss fought in the [[Weapon World]] of ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. In battle, he fights alongside his partner [[Cloaker]] and has a pet snake, [[Mad Adder]]. Like Cloaker, his design is heavily influenced by depictions of ancient Middle Eastern culture; in his case, he wears a veil and brightly colored stripes and is shaped like a hookah, with the rope in back resembling a hookah's hose. His use of a giant cobra also ties into this influence.


'''Domino''' is a magic-wielding [[jester]] and a member of the [[Smithy Gang]]. In battle, he fights alongside his partner [[Cloaker]]. Domino lives in [[Smithy]]'s [[Factory (Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars)|Factory]] with his enormous pet snake, the [[Mad Adder]].
Both Cloaker and Domino challenge [[Mario|Mario's]] party to a battle after he has fallen into a trap. In battle, Domino has strengths in magic use, though he has a physical weakness; his partner, Cloaker, complements the weakness by excelling at physical attacks. If Cloaker is defeated first, Domino retreats to his pet snake, the Mad Adder, and the two fuse, leading to another phase in the fight.

During the events of ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', the villainous duo of Cloaker and Domino challenged [[Mario|Mario's]] party to a battle. Together, Domino and Cloaker proved to be powerful foes. The key to their strength was, in fact, their togetherness. Domino was a powerful magic user, but he could not do much damage physically. On the other hand, his partner Cloaker was physically strong, but he could not use or block magic attacks. As such, the two villains offset each others weaknesses. Thus Mario and his allies defeated one jester first. Without his partner, the other villain would recognize his own weaknesses and retreat. If Mario defeated Cloaker first, Domino would run away to his pet snake, the [[Mad Adder]]. The two beings would fuse together in an attempt to defeat Mario. Eventually, even this combined power was not enough to defeat the heroic plumber and both Domino and the Mad Adder were defeated.
