===''Super Mario 64'' / ''Super Mario 64 DS''=== | |||
In ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', a 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 a short period of time. The Klepto eventually regains his senses, and after losing the Power Star, he attempts to steal Mario's [[Mario's Cap|cap]]. If he leaves and still has no hat, it remains in the course he lost it in. | |||

In ''[[Mario Party Advance]]'', Klepto guards a treasure chest with a star. When the player arrives at Klepto's Ruins, his quest involves attempting to open the chest by entering the 4-digit code, giving them the hint that it is also his favorite word. When speaking, he has a tendency to stutter and repeat the word "for," indicating what the code is. By guessing the correct code (4444) and opening the chest, Klepto rewards the player with the [[Gaddget]] [[Map Maker]]. The ending states that Klepto changed the code to the treasure chest. | |||
