Tutankoopa

Tutankoopa is a character in Paper Mario.
==Profile==
===Physical description===
Tutankoopa is a unique-looking Koopa Troopa who has blue eyes. He also wears pharaoh-like clothes with a small Chain Chomp on his head.
==In Paper Mario==
Tutankoopa is a pharaoh and minion of Bowser who invaded Dry Dry Ruins. He is the main boss of Chapter 2. Tutankoopa's voice is heard the second Mario enters the Ruins. Throughout the level, he continues to warn Mario to turn around and leave or else he'll suffer a horrible fate. When Mario finds Tutankoopa, they battle in order to save the next Star Spirit, Mamar. After Mario and his partners defeat him, an outraged Chain Chomp comes out, snapping at Tutankoopa. Even though he tries to calm it down, it chases him into a cell. In the credits of Paper Mario, Tutankoopa is seen numerous times still being chased by the Chomp (with even two more chasing him at that point).
=== Battle ===
In battle, Tutankoopa's primary attack is throwing empty Buzzy Beetle shells at Mario which deals 3 points of damage each. However, Tutankoopa only has three of these shells and once he has used them up, he will switch to his next main attack which is the magic spell attack. Tutankoopa summons a large image of a Chain Chomp and it will either damage Mario and his partner for 2 points of damage each (which will knock out Mario's partner for two turns) or damage Tutankoopa himself instead and knock him off of his pedestal. When Tutankoopa's HP gets low, he will summon Chain Chomps to aid him in battle.
====Strategy====
Since Tutankoopa is on his pedestal for most of the battle, Kooper should stay out this fight as he can only attack grounded enemies. This leaves only Goombario and Parakarry; however, Parakarry would be the better choice since his Shell Shot move deals a lot of damage. Mario should use his Power Jump move to deal damage to Tutankoopa. Tutankoopa's magic spell attack is technically luck-based so there is no real strategy to avoid that move. If Tutankoopa does get hit by his own spell and lands on the ground, Mario can conserve FP by using his recently acquired Super Hammer (unless the Chain Chomp is in the way). Ignore the Chain Chomps that Tutankoopa summons to battle as defeating one will only cause Tutankoopa to summon another.

*Tutankoopa's behavior in using creepy messages throughout the location telling Mario to turn back is reused by Cortez in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.
