History

Super Mario series

Super Mario 3D World

Charvaarghs make their first appearance in Super Mario 3D World. They appear in only one level, World Castle-7, Simmering Lava Lake where players must make it past them. If a character touches them, a life is lost, regardless of the character's form. Charvaarghs cannot be defeated by any method. They are also one of the only two enemies (including bosses) that can defeat the player in one hit, the other being Fuzzy Hordes.

However, most Charvaarghs only show up when the player enters a Clear Pipe for aesthetic purposes.

Super Mario Maker 2

Charvaarghs reappear as placable course elements in Super Mario Maker 2.[1] They are unique to the Super Mario 3D World game style. Up to three Charvaarghs can be placed in a single course section, and unlike in Super Mario 3D World, touching one will simply power down players instead of taking them out instantly.[2]

Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker

Charvaarghs return in Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker. They appear in lava stages either coming out of grates which Toad must walk across, or blocking his path where he must run across Dash Panels. They debut in Rolling Inferno. In this game, they do not instantly defeat the character.

Mario Party 10

Charvaarghs made their Mario Party debut in Mario Party 10. They appear in Chaos Castle in the Unlucky Spaces to take away the player's Mini Stars.
