Phanto
A Phanto.

Phantos are large, seemingly living or possessed masks that can often be found guarding various treasures, most often, keys.

Phantos appeared as semi-common enemies in Super Mario Bros. 2, often in caves or in vases. Phanto simply remain immobile unless the key they are guarding moves; once this happens, a Phanto will ceaselessly chase whoever stole it's key. Phantos cannot be avoided and can only be escaped from using the key it was guarding to unlock a door.
