Multiple Kleptos appear at multiple points. Unless there's consensus that there's a Klepto character and a Klepto species, I'm making all of the appearances more generic. (The Kleptos in SM64DS are referred to as "he" in the guide)

'''Klepto'''<ref>''Super Mario 64 [[Nintendo Power|Player's Guide]]'', pgs. 9, 13, 70-71</ref> is a condor first seen in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. Since then, he has continued to make infrequent appearances in the [[Mario (series)|''Mario'' series]]. His name is a pun on "kelpto-", the Latin prefix for "theft".

In ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', Klepto is seen in [[Shifting Sand Land]]. He holds one of the [[Princess Peach's Castle|castle's]] [[Power Star]]s, so [[Mario]] must reclaim it from his talons. Mario can attack the bird, knocking him out for short periods of time. Klepto will eventually regain his senses, and after losing the Power Star, he will attempt to steal Mario's [[Mario's Cap|cap]]. Without his hat, Mario takes more damage when attacked. If he leaves and still has no hat, it will remain in the course he lost it in.

Klepto has the same Power Star and purpose in ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''. He also appears in another level, the [[Sunshine Isles]], accessible from the [[Rec Room (Super Mario 64 DS)|Rec Room]]. He makes a final appearance in [[Tiny-Huge Island]], when the character is big. He is carrying, as usual, a star - except this time it's a Power Star. Additionally, though Klepto only steals heroes' caps, he will attack and cause harm if he glances [[Yoshi]] in the vicinity even if Yoshi uses any [[cap]].
