'''King Croacus IV''' is a boss in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. The flamboyant king of the [[Floro Sapiens]], Croacus adores beauty and spends most of his time brainwashing [[Cragnon]]s to rebuild his castle full of jewels. He is also the possessor of the sixth [[Pure Heart]]. He was the regent for [[King Croacus III]] until he came of age, and when the young ruler wilted, Croacus IV, popular due to his stabilizing influence, was appointed King. He doesn't care for fighting, but when [[Mario]], [[Peach]], and [[Bowser]] enter his chambers, he decides to dispose of them. | '''King Croacus IV''' is a boss in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''.

He is defeated by jumping onto his smaller heads and then jumping on his normal head when it becomes exposed, or just throwing the smaller heads at the exposed head. His central head is invincible unless exposed, no matter what the heroes do. Then, he loses the rest of his body and floats around on his head, throwing sharp petals at the heroes who must dodge or destroy them and attack Croacus' flying head straight on. He could also be defeated by using [[Thoreau]] to grab a smaller head and throwing it at his normal head when it was exposed. | He is defeated by jumping onto his smaller heads and then jumping on his normal head when it becomes exposed, or just throwing the smaller heads at the exposed head.

After he is eventually defeated, it is revealed that the Cragnons were polluting the waters that the Floro Sapiens drank from, and that King Croacus was trying to save his people by mind-controlling the Cragnons with [[Floro Sprout]]s. | After he is eventually defeated, it is revealed that the Cragnons were polluting the waters that the Floro Sapiens drank from, and that King Croacus was trying to save his people by mind-controlling the Cragnons with [[Floro Sprout]]s. Upon witnessing the scene, [[Flint Cragley]] declares that he will show his tape to the Cragnons, ending the war between the two races. | ||
Later, King Croacus is seen in healthy spirits and less insane than before. He jokingly threatens the heroes with another battle, but states that the waters have become less polluted while he was sleeping. He says that he hopes he can help the Cragnons in the future. This suggests that, as the Floro Sapiens say, he is actually benevolent and was driven insane only due to the dirty water. | Later, King Croacus is seen in healthy spirits and less insane than before.
