History[]
EarthBound Beginnings[]
Starmen appear in many places in EarthBound Beginnings. One is first fought as a boss, appearing as a monochromatic hotel worker in Spookane's hotel that attacks Ninten and co. after they sleep the night, charging a suspiciously cheap fee to lure them in. As an enemy, they can be found in Ellay, the Yucca Desert, north of Youngtown, the Swamp, and at the base of Mt. Itoi. Another version appears in the office of the Zoo, called Starman Jr, a weaker version of the regular Starmen.
EarthBound[]
They are found in the Stonehenge Base. Here, they are significantly stronger, providing a substantial amount of experience when defeated and rarely drop a Brain Food Lunch. The Starmen and the others of Giygas's army in the Stonehenge Base retreat once the Starman Deluxe is defeated.
