Wizzerd

Wizzerds are a race of cyborg creatures encountered as enemies in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. They are vaguely bean-shaped and have four floating, three-digit hands around them. As implied from their wizard-derived name, they are capable of magic, and can use it to both hinder Mario and his partners or help its own allies. Its main attack is firing a green laser at Mario or his partner to damage them, and when alone, it will split into four or five clones. Attacking one of the clones has no effect on the Wizzerd, so attacks that damage multiple enemies are recommended for dealing with them in this scenario.
Wizzerds come in three forms; interestingly, the Dark Wizzerd is weaker than its normal variety, being found in the Palace of Shadow, as well as floors 61-69 in the Pit of 100 Trials. They are purple with light-purple hands, and can raise the Power and Defense stats of other enemies, as well as replenish 10 HP. The regular Wizzerds are yellow with orange hands, and encountered in floors 71-79 in the Pit of 100 Trials. They can only replenish 6 HP and will not clone when alone, but have magic that can cure Softness, a unique lightning strike attack, and special lasers that inflict Confusion on Mario or his partners. Finally, Elite Wizzerds are the strongest variety, being white with blue hands and encountered in floors 91-99 in the Pit of 100 Trials. They can replenish 10 HP and clone themselves when alone like Dark Wizzerds, but they also have magic that can grant the Huge, Dodgy, Invisible, or Electrified status ailments to itself or its allies. On top of that, it has the highest HP, Attack, and Defense stats of the three varieties.
