'''Lord Crump''', also known as '''X-Naut Black''' and '''Four-Eyes''' when disguised, is the second-in-command of the [[X-Nauts (organization)|X-Nauts]] (second only to [[Grodus]]) and the secondary antagonist in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' and its [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch)|Nintendo Switch remake]]. He fights [[Mario]] four times, two of them while controlling his personal robot, [[Magnus von Grapple]]. He also often summons the [[X-Nauts (platoon)|X-Naut platoon]] when he is angry.


Second in command of the X-Nauts, Lord Crump is always willing to follow Grodus' command. You will fight the somewhat-stupid X-Naut four different times. Your first battle will be against him. Lord Crump also takes part in many of the cutscenes seen throughout the game. After his Magnus von Grapple 2.0 is destroyed, he is sent flying out to space, floating about with Grodus' head. It is rumored that he mananged to return from space, and now bosses around Grodus in Poshley Heights.  
Second in command of the X-Nauts, Lord Crump is always willing to follow Grodus' command. Even though Lord Crump is second in command, Grodus calls him his most incompetent underling in Chapter 8. Lord Crump frequently appears in the story, often getting in Mario's way.


==History==
===''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''===
Lord Crump appears as soon as Mario enters [[Rogueport]] and catches him interrogating [[Goombella]] in search of her knowledge of the [[Crystal Stars]]. Mario, with Goombella's help, defeats Lord Crump in a tutorial fight, but Crump has a trick up his sleeve, calling the rest of the X-Nauts to "punish him", prompting a cloud fight until Mario and Goombella flee the scene.


[[File:PMTTYD Magnus screenshot.png|thumb|Crump insults Mario during the fight.]]
In Chapter 2 of the game, Grodus sends him and the [[Three Shadows]] to [[Boggly Woods]], knowing a Crystal Star is located somewhere within [[the Great Tree]]. Knowing the Crystal Star belongs to the [[Puni]]es in the tree, Crump and his men imprison the Punies, team up with the Punies' enemies, the [[Jabbi]]es, and perform a search throughout the tree. Their search for the Star does not go well when Mario, Goombella, [[Koops]], [[Flurrie]], and [[Punio]] interfere with his plans, liberate the Punies and fight the Jabbies in a battle for the tree. After Mario and the Punies find the Emerald Star, Crump steals it and activates a time bomb. As Mario and company reach the entrance to the tree, they see that the [[Puni elder]] has blocked off Crump's escape, giving them the opportunity to force Crump to deactivate the time bomb. However, he refuses to hand the Emerald Star over, instead activating [[Magnus von Grapple]] to attack in an attempt to destroy Mario and company and make his getaway with the Emerald Star. His attempt to defeat Mario and company proves totally unsuccessful and Magnus von Grapple is destroyed instead. Upon the defeat of Magnus von Grapple, Lord Crump and his men are driven out of the Great Tree, and the Puni elder gives Mario and his team the Emerald Star as a reward.

[[File:PM2 LordCrump.jpg|150px|thumb|Lord Crump disguised as Four-Eyes]]
In Chapter 5, Lord Crump disguises himself as a pirate named Four-Eyes and follows Mario and company to [[Keelhaul Key]] to find the [[Sapphire Star]]. Shown in the picture, his disguise is very bad, and Crump even breaks the [[fourth wall]], telling the player that even though they might see through his disguise, they should not tell Mario of it. He secretly follows Mario and company through the [[Pirate's Grotto]] as Mario and company search for the Star. While Lord Crump is disguised, [[Goombella]] has two field [[tattle]]s on Lord Crump.


'''''[[Rogueport]] Battle'''''
After Mario and his friends beat [[Cortez]] and obtain the Star, Lord Crump removes his disguise and threatens to blow Keelhaul Key to the bottom of the sea unless Mario gives him the Sapphire Star. Mario, [[Flavio]] and company enlist Cortez's help to fight Crump. While Cortez's pirates (with help from Mario and Flavio's deckhands and [[Francesca]] and [[Frankie]]) and Crump's X-Nauts raid each other's ships, Mario and his partners fight Lord Crump. This time, Crump uses his X-Nauts as backup. Lord Crump and his X-Nauts lose and are forced to retreat.

It is not long after the events at Keelhaul Key that Lord Crump returns to [[Twilight Town]] in search of the [[Superbombomb]]. He manages to find it, and gloats over how it will help him with the search for the Crystal Stars. Unfortunately, [[Bowser]] and [[Kammy Koopa]] are around and overhear him. This results in a battle against the X-Nauts and the [[Bowser's Minions|Koopa Clan]] that almost begins, until Bowser uses his [[Fire Breath]] to set off the Superbombomb, blasting both armies into submission. This is the only time Crump gets to meet Bowser.

During the ending, it is revealed that Lord Crump survives after his defeat. He was last seen in [[Poshley Heights]], along with Grodus (who is reduced to his robotic head), and four X-Naut troopers. As with [[Beldam]], Lord Crump and the X-Nauts reportedly reformed for the better.

===Personality===
Lord Crump, throughout the course of the game, has been shown to be somewhat of a clown and bumbling; and as a result, he is often looked down on by Grodus, even going so far as to label him as his "least-competent underling". Despite this, there are many instances where he proves himself to be quite intelligent, such as in Chapter 2 when he sets a trap for Mario and his [[partner]]s, in Chapter 5, where he disguises himself as Four-Eyes and uses Mario and company to defeat Cortez for him so that he can obtain the Crystal Star, and even in Chapter 7, where he (according to himself) uses the last Crystal Star to lure Mario and the others up to the X-Naut Fortress so that he can take theirs and add to the X-Nauts' collection (even though he does not know he is being taken advantage of himself by Grodus). Lord Crump has also shown some displays of arrogance in the aforementioned scenes. Lord Crump's speech pattern is seen as irritating to Grodus.

==Trivia==
*It is impossible to lose the first fight against Lord Crump, because even if Mario repeatedly falls into the water to lose 9 HP, he starts the battle with at least 5 HP, and his only options are attacking and defending.
*If Lord Crump is frozen or put to sleep during the second phase of his third fight (on [[Keelhaul Key]]), he will not board the X-Nauts as they perform their giant ball attack, but the attack will work as normal.
*The beginning of Lord Crump's theme (titled "Invasion of the X-Nauts!" in the remake) uses the death soundbit from the {{wp|Atari 2600}} version of ''{{wp|Pac-Man (Atari 2600)|Pac-Man}}''.
**In the original game, his theme only plays during two cutscenes in Chapter 2. In the remake, it also plays while speaking to him in the post-Chapter 5 Bowser intermission and during the cut to the X-Nauts in Poshley Heights when Mario reads Goombella's email at the end of the game.

—Lord Crump, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Lord Crump, also known as X-Naut Black and Four-Eyes when disguised, is the second-in-command of the X-Nauts (second only to Grodus) and the secondary antagonist in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and its Nintendo Switch remake. He fights Mario four times, two of them while controlling his personal robot, Magnus von Grapple. He also often summons the X-Naut platoon when he is angry.

Second in command of the X-Nauts, Lord Crump is always willing to follow Grodus' command. Even though Lord Crump is second in command, Grodus calls him his most incompetent underling in Chapter 8. Lord Crump frequently appears in the story, often getting in Mario's way.

Trivia[edit]

  • It is impossible to lose the first fight against Lord Crump, because even if Mario repeatedly falls into the water to lose 9 HP, he starts the battle with at least 5 HP, and his only options are attacking and defending.
  • If Lord Crump is frozen or put to sleep during the second phase of his third fight (on Keelhaul Key), he will not board the X-Nauts as they perform their giant ball attack, but the attack will work as normal.
  • The beginning of Lord Crump's theme (titled "Invasion of the X-Nauts!" in the remake) uses the death soundbit from the Atari 2600 version of Pac-Man.
    • In the original game, his theme only plays during two cutscenes in Chapter 2. In the remake, it also plays while speaking to him in the post-Chapter 5 Bowser intermission and during the cut to the X-Nauts in Poshley Heights when Mario reads Goombella's email at the end of the game.
