Magnus von Grapple: Difference between revisions

'''Magnus von Grapple''' (or '''Magnus''') is a robot operated by [[Lord Crump]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. It serves as the boss of Chapter 2.

In [[Mario]]'s hunt for the [[Crystal Stars]], the second star, the [[Emerald Star]], is hidden in [[the Great Tree]] of [[Boggly Woods]]. The [[X-Naut]]s, led by Lord Crump, are already there searching for the star when Mario and his [[Partner#Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door|partners]] arrive. Crump allows Mario to find the Crystal Star and then steals it from him after Mario discovers it at the bottom of the Tree with the help of the [[Puni]]es. Mario and his partners confront Crump, who activates a time bomb to destroy the Tree. Mario and his partners pursue him to the Tree's entrance, where Crump's escape route is blocked by the [[Puni elder]]. Upon noticing that Mario and his partners have caught up with him, Crump deactivates the time bomb, but he refuses to hand over the Emerald Star. Instead, he activates Magnus von Grapple and fights Mario and his party. In the battle with Magnus von Grapple, Mario's [[audience]] consists of Punies and the X-Nauts, with the former taking up the left half and the latter taking up the right half initially. Eventually, Mario prevails over the robot and claims the Crystal Star. The [[X-Naut PhD|X-Naut scientists]] later build a new robot named [[Magnus von Grapple 2.0]], which is much more powerful than its predecessor.
