Bald Clefts are variant of Cleft featured in both Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and Super Paper Mario.
In Paper Mario series[]
Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door[]
They first appear in one of the fortresses in front of the castle in Petal Meadows. Bald Clefts look like slabs of stone shaped sloppily in the shape of a skull. They have little red pinpoint eyes and crooked teeth. They have little blue rubber boots similar to Mario's. They are gray and their only attack is a charged headbutt. Due to their defense of 1, the best way to take them out is with either Mario's hammer or POW Blocks.
Super Paper Mario[]
Bald Clefs reappear in this game and are mainly found in Yold Desert. However, they aren't as strong as their counterparts from the previous game. Bald Clefts behave the same in this game disguising themselves as rocks in order to catch Mario off guard.
