'''Doopliss''' is a [[Duplighost]] that lives in the [[Creepy Steeple]] of [[Twilight Town]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. He appears as an enemy of Mario several times throughout the game, and is the boss of Chapter 4. He causes the members of Twilight Town to become [[pig]]s whenever the bell tolls, and attempts to steal Mario's identity. He has the special ability of stealing another character's body when copying them, something that other Duplighosts are unable to do. He later becomes a member of the [[Shadow Sirens]], replacing [[Vivian]].

Doopliss's English name comes from the word "duplicity," being double or twofold, which references his powers. It also may come from the word "dupe," meaning to fool others, which he does while disguised. In other localizations, his name is Rumpel, which comes from the fairy tale character [[wikipedia:Rumpelstiltskin|Rumpelstiltskin]], as both offer the same challenge: to have another guess his name.
