The '''forebear''' is a [[Toad (species)|Toad]] who appears in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]''. He operated the ski lift at [[Whiteout Valley]] and is the current owner of [[The Enigmansion]], making the former owner, the [[Steward (Paper Mario: Sticker Star)|steward]], his servant.

==History==
During the course of the game, [[The Enigmansion]] becomes haunted after [[Kamek]] opens the [[Book of Sealing]], releasing all of the [[Boos]] inside it. The [[Steward (Paper Mario: Sticker Star)|steward]] gives [[Mario]] the Book of Sealing and asks him with to find all of the hidden Boos and seal them back into the book. After this is done, the steward thanks Mario and invites him to the living room, where he insists they sit down and chat over tea.

When Mario inspects a picture on the wall, the steward explains that it was painted by the mansion's previous steward, and that he inherited the mansion after the former steward passed away. As a token of thanks, the steward gives Mario the [[Forebear's Portrait]], insisting that he feels better without it.

Mario must then travel to [[Whiteout Valley]], where he can use [[paperization]] to place the Forebear's Portrait into the blank space. The forebear then comes to life and activates the ski lift for Mario and [[Kersti]], allowing them to continue their adventure.

If Mario returns to the Enigmansion after riding the ski lift, it is discovered that the forebear has returned and regained ownership of the mansion, and the steward has been made his servant. Mario can sit in the chair in front of the forebear to initiative a brief conversation that ends with the forebear summoning in the steward, who gives Mario a [[MAX UP Heart]].

The forebear reappears at the end of the game, celebrating the [[Sticker Fest]] alongside the steward.

According to a biography of the forebear found in a bookshelf in the mansion, he operated the ski lift for 30 years and withdrew to a quiet life in the mansion with his servant after retiring.
