'''Crooks''' are hooded enemies encountered in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' | |||
'''Crooks''' are hooded enemies encountered in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. [[Mario]] and [[Mallow]] first encounter Crooks while traveling through [[Rose Way]]. When a Crook spots Mario in the area, the Crook attempts to run into Mario and his partner, initiating a battle. Though Crooks have powerful attacks (punching and throwing daggers), their defense and [[Heart Point|HP]] are low, with a powerful [[Action Command|timed hit]] being able to take them out. They don't have any weaknesses or resistances, so all types of magic do the same damage. Crooks are often found in groups aiding other monsters in battle. Occasionally, Crooks will [[flee|escape]] from battle. | |||
[[Croco]] also has three Crook accomplices (who are referred to as "flunkies") whom Mario and company can fight in the [[Mole Mines]]. If these Crooks are defeated in battle, they leave a [[Flower Tab]]. One of these Crooks can also be seen in the end of the game during the parade. | [[Croco]] also has three Crook accomplices (who are referred to as "flunkies") whom Mario and company can fight in the [[Mole Mines]].

*In the original | *In the original English SNES release, Mallow's [[Thought Peek]] suggests that the player cannot escape from combat against Crooks, although the player can still run from battle against them anyway. In the original Japanese version and the Switch remake, the quote is instead 「逃げちゃダメだ..逃げちゃダメだ..。」which is lifted directly from the first episode of ''Neon Genesis Evangelion'', where it is said by main protagonist Shinji Ikari telling himself over and over "I mustn't run away. I mustn't run away. I mustn't run away. I mustn't run away." <ref>Clyde Mandelin (June 29, 2020).
