The '''X-Naut Fortress''' is [[Grodus]]' main base of operations which is located on the [[moon]] and the home to the [[X-Nauts (organization)|X-Nauts]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. [[Princess Peach]] is also taken to here. The last [[Crystal Stars|Crystal Star]], the [[Crystal Star]], is held there and [[Mario]] and his friends have to use [[Big Bob]] in [[Fahr Outpost]] to reach this place and fight [[Lord Crump]] (while controlling [[Magnus von Grapple 2.0]]) to get the star. Grodus travels between the [[earth]] and his fortress using a [[teleporter (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|teleporter]], which has one end located in his laboratories and the other end located in [[Rogueport Underground]].

The base is also the home of [[TEC-XX]], which is the main computer of the whole fortress. Also, after Mario gets the sixth Crystal Star, Grodus takes Princess Peach and leaves the fortress (possibly giving it to Lord Crump) so he can go to the [[Palace of Shadow]]. After Mario successfully destroys Magnus von Grapple 2.0, he gets the seventh Crystal Star. After that, the fortress explodes and Mario is unable to go back until the [[Shadow Queen|final boss]] is defeated. | ||
The fortress is essentially a five-story building built deep under the moon. It is all connected by a series of hallways and two elevators. The deeper Mario or Peach go, the dimmer the lighting is. | The fortress is essentially a five-story building built deep under the moon. It is all connected by a series of hallways and two elevators.
