Shattered Man

The Shattered Man is an enemy in EarthBound that appears the Summers museum. It has a high defense stat and is often grouped with others of its kind. It is capable of solidifying party members by giving targets "a great big hug" and reaching out with its icy hand. Upon defeat, the Shattered Man has a 1/2 (or technically a 64/128) probability of dropping Mummy Wrap. The foe is also highly weak to Paralysis. The Shattered Man is the key element in a game-breaking glitch; if the player only defeats one of the two Shattered Men and then dies to the other at the end of the game, the game will glitch and turn to a black screen. If you will hold left after your death, you'll leave the room, and see corrupted graphics. This glitch was later fixed in Mother 1 + 2.
A weaker version of this enemy, the Fierce Shattered Man, can be found at the Pyramid.
