Blargg is a fiery dragon-like enemy that resides in lava pits, typically within underground or volcanic settings. It made its debut appearance in Super Mario World.

In the games[]

Blargg SMW sprite

In Super Mario World, Blarggs are first encountered in the Vanilla Dome. Here, their behavior is to poke their eyes out from the lava and then launch themselves at Mario or Luigi as their Skull Raft approaches them.

Blarggs appear as enemies in Yoshi's Story, in which they are featured in the level Blargg's Boiler.

Unused appearances[]

Blarggs were also supposed to appear in Super Mario 64 in Lethal Lava Land, but were cut out for unknown reasons. Through hacking or a cheating device, it is possible to have a Blargg appear there. Its model is fully functional, although it is notably missing its pair of eyes.

Variants[]

Blarggs were given variants in some of their appearances without appearing themselves. In Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, they received a smaller variant named Red Blarggs and a larger variant named Gargantua Blargg. Super Mario Galaxy 2 introduced two variants named Magmaarghs and Magmaws. Super Mario 3D World introduces Charvaarghs.

Trivia[]

  • Blargg is known as the "lava shark" for its sudden, unsuspecting emergence to bite its prey. This concept has been influenced by the shark from the Jaws film series.
