Mario using the 1,000-Fold Arms  move.
Artwork of Mario with the 1,000-Fold Arms

The 1,000-Fold Arms, also spelled without a hyphen[1], are an ability that appears in Paper Mario: The Origami King. True to their name, they are folded origami arms that Mario can use to peel walls, and open valves, similar to the paperize ability in Paper Mario: Sticker Star and the cutout ability in Paper Mario: Color Splash. They can only be used with Olivia and while standing on Magic Circles. The 1,000-Fold Arms can be used during boss fights; using it to finish off a boss rewards Mario with a "1,000-Fold Arms Finisher" bonus. Additionally, there is an option in the settings menu to control the 1,000-Fold arms with either motion controls or just with the controller buttons.

  • Earth Vellumental - Mario flips it over to stun it.
  • Water Vellumental - Mario grabs it by the tail and slams it back down.
  • Fire Vellumental - Mario plucks the feathers out of its head.
  • Colored Pencils - Mario grabs the colored pencils and uses them to stab the case.
  • Rubber Band - Mario grabs the last rubber band and flicks it.
  • Hole Punch - Mario grabs and peels its lid off.
  • Tape - Mario pulls out its remaining tape.
  • Scissors - Mario flips over the ice chunk it is frozen in with Ice Vellumental similar to the Earth Vellumental, breaking the ice and stunning it.
  • Stapler - Mario snaps its mouth open, breaking it.
  • Handaconda - Mario plays rock-paper-scissors.
