'''Cortez''' is the holder of the fifth [[Crystal Stars|Crystal Star]], the [[Sapphire Star]], in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. He resides on his ship deep within [[Pirate's Grotto]] on [[Keelhaul Key]]. He fights [[Mario]] when he thinks the plumber is after his treasure. After being defeated, Cortez gives Mario the Crystal Star when the latter told him he wasn't interested in his treasure, only in the Crystal Star. Cortez hands it over willingly, offhandedly remarking "What do I need one or two extra gems for anyway?" and that he never particularly cared for the Crystal Star anyways. | '''Cortez''' is the holder of the fifth [[Crystal Stars|Crystal Star]], the [[Sapphire Star]], in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''.

After Four-Eyes revealed his true identity as [[Lord Crump]], Mario and [[Flavio]] return to the pirate in order to request the use of his ship. Cortez was not particularly interested, spouting that he didn't want his ship to be used as a luxury liner. He also tells them that even if he wanted to lend them his ship, the ship is useless as it won't operate as its power source, the [[Skull Gem]], was stolen. Flavio then reveals he has the gem, causing Cortez to be even more furious and not wishing to help them even further, as Flavio's ancestors stole it from him. He eventually relents after Flavio reminded him that Mario beat him once, and hints that he'll have Mario fight Cortez again for the ship. Cortez, relenting, then helps them in the battle against the [[X-Naut]]s when Lord Crump attacks Keelhaul Key. From then on Cortez stays docked at Rogueport and would ferry Mario to Keelhaul Key and back whenever he wanted. | After Four-Eyes revealed his true identity as [[Lord Crump]], Mario and [[Flavio]] return to the pirate in order to request the use of his ship.

In this regard, he serves much the same purpose as [[Whale (character)|The Whale]] from the first ''[[Paper Mario]]''. | ||
