Tutankoopa

Tutankoopa, is the boss of the Dry Dry Ruins and the guardian of Mamar the Star Spirit. He appears as a boss in the game Paper Mario. When Mario and his partners enter the Dry Dry Ruins Tutankoopa's voice can be heard warning them to run away. He continues to deliver such warnings as the heroes progress through the ruins, losing his cool and starting to shout frantically when they approach the Super Hammer.

Mario and co. finally reach the Koopa's room, where he summons a Chomp. He than continues to attack the heroes, by throwing rocks at them and by summoning gigantic Chomp Head to fall on them. At first he stands on a high ledge, so that he can only be hit by aerial attacks. However, after enough damage has been dealt he will fall to the ground, making him vulnerable to ground attacks.

After a long battle, the team is able to defeat the the Koopa pharaoh. He is then attacked by his own Chomps and chased out of the ruins.

In the ending parade of Paper Mario Tutankoopa can be seen, still being chased by his Chomps.

The King of Chomps also appears in Mario Pinball Land as the boss of the desert stage.
