Draglets[1] areenemies inSuper Mario 3D Land. They are small blue dragons with small purple bat-like wings and pink spikes attached to their backs. Draglets have two fangs, and their eyes have dash-like pupils instead of circular ones. They bear a slight resemblance toEeries,Rexes, andDino-Torches. Draglets are found in thecastle stages. They stay in one spot, but when a Draglet spotsMario orLuigi, they will attack by shooting a singlefireball at him. Draglets make a distinct sneezing sound before shooting a fireball, indicating that their attack is coming. Draglets can easily be defeated byjumping on them or swingingTanooki Mario's tail at them, or with a projectile such as a fireball orboomerang. Draglets also appear briefly during the cutscene that plays when Mario is enteringWorld 8 for the first time.
