'''DJ Toad''' is a purple [[Toad (species)|Toad]] with sunglasses who appears in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]''. He resembles the [[lighthouse keeper]] from ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]''. He first appears in the [[Temple of Shrooms]], where he runs the DJ station and is threatened by [[Hole Punch]] to play good music or else he will have his face removed. DJ Toad has lost four discs around the temple, and if Mario returns one, the Toad plays it to hear Hole Punch's reaction. Once Mario finds the right disc, he can start collecting faceless yellow Toads with a boombox, and gather them all on the dance floor to make Hole Punch leave his room.

DJ Toad is found again in the hotel of [[Shroom City (Paper Mario: The Origami King)|Shroom City]], playing music in the pool area and replacing the [[Snifit]] that held his job while he was captured. He has two tracks to start with, and the four that Mario gives him are also available. He then reappears at the end of the game, DJ'ing the Origami Festival alongside his Snifit counterpart.

DJ Toad is also seen posing in the [[Dress-Up Photo Studio]] photograph at [[Shogun Studios]].
