In ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', Klepto is seen in [[Shifting Sand Land]]. It holds one of the [[Peach's Castle|Mushroom Castle]]'s [[Power Star]]s, flying around between the course's four pillars, so [[Mario]] must reclaim it from its talons. Mario can attack the bird, knocking it out for a short period of time. Klepto eventually regains its senses, and after losing the Power Star, it attempts to steal [[Mario Cap|Mario's cap]]. In later stages, Klepto can be found near the oasis and still attempts to steal his cap. If it does manage to steal it, it will fly around the pillars, carrying it similar to before. If Mario leaves and still has no cap, it remains in the course he lost it in.


'''Jango Fett''' is a fictional character in the ''[[Star Wars]]'' [[fictional universe|universe]]. He first appeared in ''[[Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones]]'', in which he was played by [[Temuera Morrison]]. Before ''Attack of the Clones'', Jango was mentioned in ''Star Wars'' novels such as ''The Bounty Hunter Special''.
Klepto has the same Power Star and purpose in ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''. Another Klepto also appears in another level, [[Sunshine Isles]]. A third one makes an appearance on [[Tiny-Huge Island]] when the player character is big. Additionally, while Kleptos steal Mario's, [[Luigi]]'s, and [[Wario]]'s [[cap]]s, they can damage [[Yoshi]]. The Klepto in Sunshine Isles, however, cannot steal anyone's cap; instead, it inflicts one point of damage to the player.


Jango Fett's son is his [[Clone (genetics)|clone]] [[Boba Fett]], made famous in ''[[Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back]]''. Both father and son served as [[bounty hunter]]s, and personal bodyguards of political figures as [[Count Dooku]], and [[Palpatine]], indirectly aiding the rise of the [[Galactic Empire (Star Wars)|Empire]].
====''Super Mario Odyssey''====
[[File:SMO Lost Brochure D.png|thumb|left|110px]]
In ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', Klepto is encountered upon reaching the [[Lost Kingdom]]. It takes [[Cappy]] from [[Mario]] and retreats with him on a pedestal, made up of two platforms: one that is raised, and one that is lower. To get Cappy back, Mario must lure Klepto into sitting upon the lower platform, and then Ground Pound the higher one, making the platform Klepto is sitting upon shoot up and defeat it. Klepto appears again in a [[Moon Pipe]] sub-area in the same kingdom, and is defeated in the same manner.


== Fictional character biography ==
Unlike Klepto in ''Super Mario 64'', it here has two toes pointing forward and one pointing backward on each foot. It shares this trait with the Kleptos of ''[[Mario Pinball Land]]''. Also, its design is somewhat different from previous games, with two tufts of hair, visible purple bags underneath its eyes, and a shady frown instead of a tired-looking expression.{{br|left}}
Jango Fett was orphaned at an early age, the son of simple Concord Dawn farmers killed by brutal marauders. At the age of ten, he was picked up by Journeyman Protector Jaster Mereel, who introduced Fett to a harsh world of mercenary life. He was raised among great warriors, learning to survive in the rugged frontiers. Though the Mandalorian supercommandos were wiped out by the Jedi Knights, Jango was one of the few left to still wear the armor.


Years of physical conditioning and training honed him into one of the most feared bounty hunters in the underworld. Not even Black Sun Vigos were safe from his dual blaster pistols. On occasion, Fett would tangle with Zam Wesell, as their talents would overlap on similar assignments. Though he preferred working solo, the two teamed up when it was prudent. The two shared a misadventure in tracking down a rare artifact from Seylott, which granted its user incredible power.
===''Mario Party'' series===
====''Mario Party 3''====
In the background of [[Spiny Desert]], three Kleptos can be seen on the upper left side of the board, playing tic-tac-toe.


Fett all but disappeared from bounty hunting circles as he took time to raise his son. He sought to experience what his life might have been like had he been raised by a caring guardian. Still, if the credits were right or the challenge appealed to him, he would don his battle armor periodically and venture from his hiding place.  
====''Mario Party 4''====
Klepto also appears in ''[[Mario Party 4]]'' on [[Shy Guy's Jungle Jam]]. Players can pay it five coins to be transported to the other side of the board, collecting coins in the process. In [[Paths of Peril]], Klepto picks up players that fall off the stage.


=== Pursuit and confrontation ===
====''Mario Party 5''====
Jango and Boba escape from Kenobi, again believing him to be out of the picture, and land safely on Geonosis. Kenobi, however, survives the contest and tracks them, eventually witnessing a meeting of Separatist leaders, where he learns that Jango is in league with Count Dooku, the leader of the Separatists. Kenobi is soon captured and [[death sentence|sentenced to death]] in the arena for [[espionage]], as well as [[Anakin Skywalker]] and [[Padmé Amidala]], who had come to rescue Kenobi. Count Dooku, [[Nute Gunray]], [[List of Star Wars Separatist characters#Libkath, Gilramos|Gilramos Libkath]], Jango, and Boba are then allowed to watch the executions from Geonosian Archduke [[Poggle the Lesser]]'s private viewing box.
[[File:Fish Upon a Star.png|thumb|A Klepto in the minigame [[Fish Upon a Star]] in ''Mario Party 5'']]
In ''[[Mario Party 5]]'', Klepto has its own [[Klepto Orb|orb]] where, if landed on, it appears and takes the character to another character's space determined by a roulette. They also cameo in the minigame [[Fish Upon a Star]]. In the instruction guide, Klepto's name is erroneously spelled '''Clepto'''.


Before the three spies could be executed, the ceremony is disrupted by the arrival of [[Mace Windu]] and a large number of other Jedi; a [[Battle of Geonosis|battle]] erupts between the Jedi and the Separatist [[battle droid]]s. Jango attacks Windu with his flamethrower, forcing the Jedi Master to retreat to the arena floor. Jango refrains from joining the melee, staying in the viewing box to guard Dooku. Eventually he joins the battle; flying down into the arena, he engages Windu, but the confrontation is quickly interrupted by an enraged [[List of Star Wars creatures#Reek|Reek]], which tramples Jango before he is able to finally get clear and kill it with a single precisely aimed shot to the snout.
====''Mario Party 6''====
In ''[[Mario Party 6]]'', Klepto can be seen flying in the background of [[Pokey Punch-out]]. The Klepto Orb returns as an orb that can only be placed on a space. Any player who lands on it is taken back to the start of the board. In the Solo Mode board [[Thirsty Gulch]], Klepto can be seen flying around the board.  


Fett then turns to face off against the Jedi Master again, but he fails to notice that his jetpack and linked flamethrower, which draw from the same fuel source, had been severely damaged by the Reek. Jango is able to fire off a few menacing shots before Windu [[decapitation|decapitates]] him with a swift swipe of his [[lightsaber]].
====''Mario Party Advance''====
[[File:Klepto MPA sprite.png|frame|left]]
{{quote2|Now, for-for-for... for you to solve it!|Klepto|[[Mario Party Advance]]}}
In ''[[Mario Party Advance]]'', Klepto guards a treasure chest at [[Klepto Ruins]]. He is encountered alongside [[Mr. E (Mario Party Advance)|Mr. E]], who entered the ruins in order to discover the treasure's ruins. Klepto is asked by Mr. E about the treasure's location, and flies up to reveal a treasure chest under his body. He then says that the treasure has a four-digit code, and that the code is his "favorite word." The code is the same word he stutters throughout the conversation, "for", and therefore 4444. If the code is entered incorrectly, Klepto berates the player and bluntly says that "for mean four." If the code is entered correctly, the chest opens to reveal a giant pile of shiny treasure, and Klepto congratulates the player. Klepto offers the treasure to Mr. E, but he refuses as it is not a mystery any more and quickly runs away. Klepto again praises the player for solving his riddle and gives them the [[Map Maker]] [[Gaddget]] as a reward. The ending reveals that Klepto changed the chest's code in order to better protect the treasure.

Klepto makes a few small appearances in ''[[Mario Party 7]]''. Landing on one of the [[Event Space|Green Spaces]] in [[Bowser's Enchanted Inferno!]] causes Klepto to grab the Star and move it to another location.

You didn't lose your hat, did you? If you did, you'll have to stomp on the condor to get it back.”
Narration, Super Mario 64

Klepto, also known as Klepto the Condor[1] or Big Bird,[2] is a larcenous, heavy-lidded condor that first appears in Super Mario 64. Since then, Kleptos have continued to make infrequent appearances in the Super Mario franchise. Their name comes from "klepto-," a prefix originating from Ancient Greek and meaning "theft."

History[edit]

Super Mario series[edit]

Super Mario 64 / Super Mario 64 DS[edit]

KleptoModel render of a Klepto from Super Mario 64 DS
Klepto in Super Mario 64 (left) and Super Mario 64 DS (right)

In Super Mario 64, Klepto is seen in Shifting Sand Land. It holds one of the Mushroom Castle's Power Stars, flying around between the course's four pillars, so Mario must reclaim it from its talons. Mario can attack the bird, knocking it out for a short period of time. Klepto eventually regains its senses, and after losing the Power Star, it attempts to steal Mario's cap. In later stages, Klepto can be found near the oasis and still attempts to steal his cap. If it does manage to steal it, it will fly around the pillars, carrying it similar to before. If Mario leaves and still has no cap, it remains in the course he lost it in.

Klepto has the same Power Star and purpose in Super Mario 64 DS. Another Klepto also appears in another level, Sunshine Isles. A third one makes an appearance on Tiny-Huge Island when the player character is big. Additionally, while Kleptos steal Mario's, Luigi's, and Wario's caps, they can damage Yoshi. The Klepto in Sunshine Isles, however, cannot steal anyone's cap; instead, it inflicts one point of damage to the player.

Super Mario Odyssey[edit]

SMO Lost Brochure D.png

In Super Mario Odyssey, Klepto is encountered upon reaching the Lost Kingdom. It takes Cappy from Mario and retreats with him on a pedestal, made up of two platforms: one that is raised, and one that is lower. To get Cappy back, Mario must lure Klepto into sitting upon the lower platform, and then Ground Pound the higher one, making the platform Klepto is sitting upon shoot up and defeat it. Klepto appears again in a Moon Pipe sub-area in the same kingdom, and is defeated in the same manner.

Unlike Klepto in Super Mario 64, it here has two toes pointing forward and one pointing backward on each foot. It shares this trait with the Kleptos of Mario Pinball Land. Also, its design is somewhat different from previous games, with two tufts of hair, visible purple bags underneath its eyes, and a shady frown instead of a tired-looking expression.

Mario Party series[edit]

Mario Party 3[edit]

In the background of Spiny Desert, three Kleptos can be seen on the upper left side of the board, playing tic-tac-toe.

Mario Party 4[edit]

Klepto also appears in Mario Party 4 on Shy Guy's Jungle Jam. Players can pay it five coins to be transported to the other side of the board, collecting coins in the process. In Paths of Peril, Klepto picks up players that fall off the stage.

Mario Party 5[edit]

In Mario Party 5, Klepto has its own orb where, if landed on, it appears and takes the character to another character's space determined by a roulette. They also cameo in the minigame Fish Upon a Star. In the instruction guide, Klepto's name is erroneously spelled Clepto.

Mario Party 6[edit]

In Mario Party 6, Klepto can be seen flying in the background of Pokey Punch-out. The Klepto Orb returns as an orb that can only be placed on a space. Any player who lands on it is taken back to the start of the board. In the Solo Mode board Thirsty Gulch, Klepto can be seen flying around the board.

Mario Party Advance[edit]

In Mario Party Advance, Klepto guards a treasure chest at Klepto Ruins. He is encountered alongside Mr. E, who entered the ruins in order to discover the treasure's ruins. Klepto is asked by Mr. E about the treasure's location, and flies up to reveal a treasure chest under his body. He then says that the treasure has a four-digit code, and that the code is his "favorite word." The code is the same word he stutters throughout the conversation, "for", and therefore 4444.

Klepto again praises the player for solving his riddle and gives them the Map Maker Gaddget as a reward. The ending reveals that Klepto changed the chest's code in order to better protect the treasure.

Mario Party 7[edit]

Klepto makes a few small appearances in Mario Party 7. Landing on one of the Green Spaces in Bowser's Enchanted Inferno! causes Klepto to grab the Star and move it to another location. Klepto can also be seen in cube form as the tops of totem poles on the Neon Heights board.

Mario Party 8[edit]

Klepto makes a minor cameo appearance in Mario Party 8, holding up the sign at the 5000 point mark in Test for the Best.

Mario Golf series[edit]

Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour[edit]

In Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour multiple Kleptos can be seen flying on the Shifting Sands course. Klepto's name (erroneously spelled as Kelpto) can be seen sometimes on the scoreboard of a golf match.

Mario Golf: Advance Tour[edit]

Klepto also appears in Mario Golf: Advance Tour in the back of the Marion Club's training grounds, in which the player must rescue a Koopa Troopa hanging from its claws.

Mario Pinball Land[edit]

In Mario Pinball Land, a group of four Kleptos can be seen flying around the pyramid in the Shifting Sands world. If Mario defeats them, he gets a star.

Mario Tennis Aces[edit]

In Mario Tennis Aces, Kleptos can be seen in the background of Bask Ruins. Unlike in Super Mario Odyssey, these Kleptos use an updated version of their design from Super Mario 64 DS to Mario Party 8. This is the only game after Mario Party 8 where Kleptos use this design.

Mario Strikers: Battle League[edit]

In Mario Strikers: Battle League, sand statues of Kleptos are depicted as Ruin Decoration 7 of Desert Ruin. These Kleptos retain their appearance from Super Mario Odyssey.
