GIGA BOWSER Description: The King of Koopas--mutated into an even BIGGER giant monster by his own out-of-control rage. Nearly invincible and over three times his regular size, Giga Bowser is unstoppable. Avoid at all costs! Inside Information: One of the ultimate bosses; Giga Bowser is saved for "end-of-season finale" sessions. He's the ultimate test of the Questers' resilience and courage and requires that they have a lot of resources saved up for doing battle with him. The journey to him is in a way more important than the fight itself as it has a huge impact on how difficult he is. These stats may or may not require significant adjustment, but if the Questers have grown enough and make the most of their smash powers, special attacks, and items, they ought to stand a chance of bringing him down.

While held opponent has no defense to speak of. Attacks automatically hit them. They can try to struggle by rolling a POW test versus the grabber. If it fails they're held until their next turn or until the grabber throws them or is forced to release them by being hit. The victim can repeat the strength test their next turn. You can attack a grabbed opponent with normal attacks only. Throw Attack Accuracy: Always hits grabbed opponent Damage Level: 9 + opponent's current Recovery Damage: 3% Speed: 5 Rate: 3 Other: High-Powered Super Smash Attack Modifier - Smash Attack Description: Giga Bowser may devote any amount of SP to charging up a smash attack. Add +1 to the Damage Dice for every SP spent in this way, as well as 1 tick of charge time. Bubble Shield Defense Description: Put your guard up to create a protective force field. Spend any amount of SP to fuel the bubble shield. For every SP spent in this way the shield gains 10% damage absorption. You can sustain the shield for as long as the absorption holds out; sustaining the shield is an action with a speed of 3 and a rate of 2. You can't fuel the shield with more SP until you've let it down for a round, and every time you drop the shield its absorption drops straight to 0. If it runs out as a result of being sustained for too long or by having its absorption reduced to 0 by attacks the shield will shatter and you will be left stunned. Special Moves: Mega Firebreath Functions as the Firebreath move, but has infinite flame power and reaches up to two movement units in front of Giga Bowser Icy Whirling Fortress Functions as Whirling Fortress, but a successful hit freezes Giga Bowser's opponent with icy wind for the next 10 ticks, delaying their turn until then and rendering them helpless. Dark Koopa Klaw Functions as Koopa Klaw, but poisons opponent for their next three turns, dealing 10% damage each one. Meteor Bomb Functions as Bowser Bomb, but with explosive power that threatens everything within the movement units Giga Bowser takes up and that deals half damage to anything on either side of him.
