The Starman is a recurring type of enemy from the Earthbound / Mother series.
Bio[edit | edit source]
The statuesque starmen are a type of aliens in service to the evil Giygas. Both Ninten and Ness had numerous encounters encounters with them, ranging from a first run-in within the haunted town of Spookane to the battle with Starman Deluxe that took place in Stonehenge Base. Although it's never specified, their speech mannerisms in the Japanese and English version suggest they may be robotic in nature.
They were among the original employers of the PSI power before its use spread among humans. As such, Starmen are notorious for their PSI Beam, but can also make use of a PSI shield. Starmen fought in Earthbound are notably stronger than those in Earthbound Origins; having almost seven times more hitpoints and higher stats in general.
In 8chanmania[edit | edit source]
The Starmen likely debuted in 8chanmania XIV, but nothing beyond him participating there (and not winning a belt) has survived.
He made another appeareance in 8chanmania LXXXIV. There, the outsider from outer space made short work of a Zaku II and sent the Angel Soldier back to heaven, but subsequently was danced into the ground by a Morolian.
