- “You!! You ignored all those very scary warnings... Don't you have the common sense to get scared and run away?! What's wrong with you?!?!”
- —Tutankoopa, Paper Mario
Tutankoopa is a boss from Paper Mario and Mario Pinball Land. He is notable for his pharoah complex, his magic abilities (such as shattering into fragments at will, leaving only his eyes and crown visible), and his heavy association with Chomps. Though it is unknown whether he is truly a ghost or not, it is known that he serves the Koop Troop in the present day.
In Paper Mario
In his debut game, Tutankoopa is the boss of the Dry Dry Ruins and the guardian of Mamar the Star Spirit. When Mario and his partners enter the Dry Dry Ruins Tutankoopa's voice can be heard warning them to run away. He continues to deliver such warnings as the heroes progress through the ruins, losing his cool and starting to shout frantically when they approach the Super Hammer.
Mario and co. finally reach the Koopa's room, where he summons a Chomp. He than continues to attack the heroes, by throwing rocks at them and by summoning the outline of an Incoming Chomp (mysteriously solid) to fall on them. At first he stands on a high ledge, so that he can only be hit by aerial attacks. However, after enough damage had been dealt he would goof up his Incoming Chomp spell and use it on himself, injuring him and making him fall to the ground, making him vulnerable to ground attacks.
After a long battle, the team is able to defeat the the Koopa pharaoh. He is then attacked by his own Chomps and chased out of the ruins.
In the ending parade of Paper Mario Tutankoopa can be seen, still being chased by his Chomps.

- If Tutankoopa truly was an ancient pharoah, he serves as evidence that Chomps have been serving Koopas for many years
