List of unnamed NPCs in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

It has been requested that this article be rewritten and expanded to include more information. Reason: Mostly complete; the following characters are still missing: (1) Untattleable characters, especially those during Bowser intermissions. (2) Inn runners and shop runners. (These characters tend to have long lists of quotes, and it is not clear how to present them.) (3) Glitz Pit Security staff.

Throughout Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, there exist several NPCs that are not named in any way. The following is a list of them.

Rogueport

Character	Quotes	Internal name
An orange Toad hanging near the Save Block. Tattle: "By the sound of it, something bad happened to this sailor, and now he hates the sea. Sounds so sad... I wonder what he thinks about when he looks out at the ocean..."	"What you want, pal? Huh? A princess in a pink dress? I ain't seen nothing like that, no. I'd remember a princess, probably. Why do you want this chick, anyway, pal? Owe you money? Or is she yer girlfriend?" "Not that you care, but I gave up all my life's dreams. Now I just stare at the sea. I walk around...alone. I wait for a ship that never returns. Life stinks, you know that?" "Once, a great pirate named Cortez wreaked havoc on these seas, y'know. People in town still tell stories about that guy... He's like a legend..." "See that ship docked there? She belongs to Flavio, the merchant trader. He don't sail too often, though. Mostly he hangs at Podley's joint on the plaza." "Off to that island, are ya? Well, at least Flavio's ship is the best in the harbor. You oughta be fine as long as you don't see any ghosts. But if the pirate king's curse is real, there ain't a ship on the sea that can save you." "I'm more interested in the casualties of a treasure hunt than I am in the treasure. Morbid, huh? Yeah, I know. Well, you try not to become a treasure ghost, OK, pal?" "If it weren't for you, those guys never would've returned. Thanks, pal!" "Hey, the sun came back, pal! Was it you? Did YOU save us? I'm...happy! I'm SOOO happy! I want to embrace life again... I want to BELIEVE again... Sniff... I love you, man."	水夫Ａ Suifu A Sailor A
An orange Toad hanging in the open area near the stairs. He appears after Goombella joins Mario's party. Tattle: "That's a Toad sailor who works here at Rogueport Harbor. I hear he loves his family so much that it's hard for him to go on long voyages."	"Hey, in case you don't know, the plaza's through the gate at the top of the stairs. There are shops and inns and stuff there. You ought to take a good look around." "You know what I've learned? The world is full of strange and mysterious places. Yup. I sure would love to go see them all one day. That'd be a logistical nightmare, though." "Yup, the world sure is full of strange and mind-warpingly wonderful places, all right... What's that? ...Boggly Woods? Huh! Never heard of them... I'd love to see 'em one day..." "Yup, the world sure is full of strange and mind-bogglingly sensational places, all right... What's that? A sky-city? Huh! Never heard of THAT... I'd love to see it one day..." "Yup, the world sure is full of strange and mind-bendingly fantastic places, all right... ...A town in perpetual dusk? Huh! Never heard of THAT... I'd love to see it one day..." "...What? Keelhaul Key? Oh, that place is absolutely awful, I've heard. Not long ago, ship after ship went there hunting treasure, but none ever returned... I bet they met the bad end of the pirate king's curse. Those guys were dumb." "Setting sail at last, eh? Treasure has its allure, but my family needs me. Dreaming dreams is all well and good, but certain-death voyages? I'll pass, thanks." "Admiral Bobbery? I'm fairly sure there was an old guy by that name living in the east part of town." "Wow, those guys all looked excited... They didn't get rich, but I still kind of envy them." "...Poshley Heights? Only filthy-rich folks live there, right? Not that I've ever been..." "WHAT?!? You went to the dang moon? Why should I believe you? Did you get the man in the moon's autograph?" "What?!? There was an evil shadow queen sleeping deep beneath this town?!? Huh? And you defeated her? Listen... You really need to quit with the compulsive lying."	水夫Ｂ Suifu B Sailor B
A Bob-omb sailor hanging in the open area near the stairs. Tattle: "That's a Bob-omb sailor. He does basic harbor work, like loading and unloading. He's kinda gruff, but he seems to have decent advice. Pretty OK guy, all around."	"Blimey! A fight?!? Corkin'! Heh heh! Ain't nothin' so fun as watchin' some poor bloke 'ave it out wif his missus, eh? Am I right, mate?" "Lissen, mate... You'll run into all sorts o' trouble if you don't keep your eyes peeled. This is ROGUEport, after all. The town's rotten wif crooks, thieves, an' 'ooligans." "K-Keelhaul Key? You mean the island where the treasure hoard of Cortez, the pirate king, is hidden? So...you want treasure, eh? Fine, but keep an eye out or the pirate curse'll get ya!" "So THAT'S how you're doin' it! You an that mental Flavio... Uh, rather, that dashin' guy... Well, at any rate, be careful. That island is right nasty. Prepare yourself, eh?" "Admiral Bobbery? Yeah, sure, that bloke used to practically live at Podley's Place, on the plaza. He'd stay too late every now an' then an' that lovely wife of his would pick 'im up." "Going at last, are ya? Try not to die a 'orrible death, all right, then?" "So, there WERE ghosts, eh? I don't care what kinda ship ya got! I'd of been paralyzed! But hey! Comin' back on a better ship than you left on is quite the score!" "Oy there, mate! How's about I catch a ride on that trim ship of yours sometime!"	水夫ボム兵Ｂ Suifu Bomuhei B Sailor Bob-omb B
A Bob-omb sailor near the S.S. Flavion during the interlude between Chapters 4 and 5. He goes on board when the ship is about to set sail. Tattle: "That's a Bob-omb sailor. He's one of the guys going to Keelhaul Key with us. Why do you think so many Bob-ombs become sailors? Kinda weird, huh?"	"Right fair weather today, eh? Yeah, perfect day to set sail, if I do say so! Wouldn't mind a bit if the whole journey blew in fair as today, no sirree bob!" (During cutscene) "I'm on board!" (During cutscene) "Wait up!"	水夫ボム兵Ｃ Suifu Bomuhei C Sailor Bob-omb C
An orange Toad on the S.S. Flavion during the interlude between Chapters 4 and 5. Tattle: "That's one of the sailors going with us to Keelhaul Key. He seems super-motivated, so we're totally lucky to have him, know what I mean?"	"Starboard ho! Port ho! Giant monster Blooper ho! I'm practicing my 'ho's'!" (During cutscene) "Aye aye AYE!"	水夫Ｄ Suifu D Sailor D
An orange Toad girl on the S.S. Flavion during the interlude between Chapters 4 and 5. Tattle: "That's one of the Toads who's coming with us to Keelhaul Key. Sounds like she got tired of life in Rogueport and wants a fresh start on Keelhaul Key. Hey, she's young, y'know? That's the time to get out there and try new stuff!"	"I... I always dreamed of the day I'd leave this town. I don't care if there are pirates or ghosts or undead vampires where we're going. It's gotta be worlds better than this stinkhole!" (During cutscene) "Sure thing!"	店員 Ten'in Clerk
An X-Naut reporting the success of Lord Crump's plan in a hidden corner during the interlude between Chapters 4 and 5.	(During cutscene) "This is X-Naut One here, come back, dude?

Character	Quotes	Internal name
A Doogan walking to and fro behind the gallows. Tattle: "That's a lazy Doogan. He hunts shady 'jobs' that he expects to pay well. I bet he's never done an honest day's work in his life. What a piece of work."	"Professor Frankly? Actually, I think a guy by that name lives over on the east side... Just go east from here. As you enter town from the harbor, just hang a right. So, uh, what about him? Did this guy steal something important from you, or what?" "Hey, you don't have any good jobs, do you? You know, easy work, great pay? Or, at least, something easy? I don't do any heavy lifting. And I gotta get paid cash." "Hey, you don't have any good jobs, do you? You know, easy work, incredible pay? Yeah! If you've got easy work that pays a lot, I'm your man! I'm all OVER that!" "Hey, you don't have any good jobs, do you? You know, easy work, insane pay? Yeah! Easy work that surrounds a guy with lovely women, I'm your man!" "Hey, you don't have any good jobs, do you? You know, easy work, absurd pay? Yeah! Like, maybe something where I sing one song and collect royalties forever?" "Hey, you don't have any good jobs, do you? You know, easy work, amazing pay? Yeah! Like, maybe something where I do a little dance and get paid for life?" "Hey, you don't have any good jobs, do you? You know, easy work, unbelievable pay? Huh? Did you say lottery? No, no... No lottery for me. I lose WAY too much." "Hey, you don't have any good jobs, do you? You know, easy work, mind-blowing pay? It would be great if I could get paid a lot to sleep. Yeah, that's the job for me." "Hey, you don't have any good jobs, do you? You know, easy work, ridiculous pay? ...... Yeah, yeah! I got it, mister... Nobody pays anyone a lot to do something easy... Fine! I'll try working hard. I'll break a sweat...but I'd better get paid good for it!"	ロテン１ Roten 1 Doogan 1
A Goomba to the east of the gallows. Tattle: "That guy's a local Goomba. He'll give you advice and stuff, so he's OK. His tips totally might come in handy, so you oughta talk to him as often as possible."	"You look like you don't know nothing, so I'll teach you something, how 'bout that? If you press , you can check your current HP. I can't believe you didn't know that. If you have low HP, you oughta go rest in an inn so you recover. Use your head." "You look like you don't know nothing, so I'll teach you something, how 'bout that? If you gotta replenish both HP and FP, inns are better than recovery blocks. Inns will refill all your Star Power, too, that's why... Recovery blocks won't, genius." "You look like you don't know nothing, so I'll teach you something, how 'bout that? In this town...the boss of the Robbos and Don Pianta are in a nasty turf war. If you wanna live long, you'd better either choose a side, or stay the heck out of it." "You look like you don't know nothing, so I'll teach you something, how 'bout that? Some people are so good at fighting, they fight with Stylish moves, you hear me? I'm pretty sure that guy who lives underground will tell you about Stylish moves... If you're interested, go talk to that guy, 'cause I'm all tapped out." "You look like you don't know nothing, so I'll teach you something, how 'bout that? Here in Rogueport...there's a world-famous archaeologist... Huh? You already knew that? Fine, smart guy. I'll have a better tip next time." "You look like you don't know nothing, so I'll teach you something, how 'bout that? There's a world-famous sailor named Bobbery here in Rogueport who... Huh? He's already with you? Fine, Mr. Big Brain. I'll have a better tip next time." "You look like you don't know nothing, so I'll teach you something, how 'bout that? There are secret blue pipes below us that are connected to other parts of the world. If you find them, you'll be able to go to distant places like Poshley Heights instantly!" "You look like you don't know nothing, so I'll teach you something, how 'bout that? There are ruins beneath us, and you can go down there and find these pipes that... Huh? You already knew that? Fine, Mr. Brilliant. I'll have a better tip next time." "You look like you don't know nothing, so I'll teach you something, how 'bout that? There's this guy named Mario who saved the whole world in its darkest hour... Huh? YOU'RE Mario?!? W-W-W-Wait a sec'! Whoa! The rumors were all true?"	クリボー２ Kuribō 2 Goomba 2
A Doogan in the backside of the plaza. Tattle: "That's a suspicious Doogan. He craves that one big score, but I doubt it'll happen. I mean, even if he did make some money, he'd just blow it. He depresses me..."	"Dang, yesterday I blew through 100 coins at the parlor. You believe that? But not next time, man! I'm coming back a winner! The odds favor me now!" "Shoot, yesterday I blew through 200 coins at the parlor. You believe that? But next time..." "Man, yesterday I blew through 300 coins at the parlor. You believe that? But next time I'm gonna win. Just mark my words, man! I've got a system now!" "Yesterday I blew through 400 coins at the parlor...but next time, it'll all be good!" "Yesterday I blew through 500 coins at the parlor...but not next time! No way, man!" "Yesterday I blew through 600 coins at the parlor...but next time, I'm gonna... Oh, wait. Now I'm all outta cash. That isn't good." "Yesterday I blew through 700 coins at the parlor...but next time, I'll do better... I'm gonna hawk my expensive wristwatch and play some more! Brilliant move, eh?" "Yesterday I blew through 800 coins at the parlor...but next time, I'm definitely winning... Actually, you know what? Maybe I'll just quit..." "Hey, listen to this, man! Yesterday at the parlor... I won 100,000 coins! Yeah! Finally! I finally won! The dark skies all cleared up, I finally won... Great days are here at last! Hooray!"	ロテン２ Roten 2 Doogan 2
A Bandit in the leftmost house in the backside of the plaza. He is initially in the east part of Rogueport, dashing towards Mario and stealing half of his coins. Tattle: "That's a bandit who's made this place his hideout. Seems like he totally loves this place...but would it kill him to clean up a bit?"	"Eeeeeeeeeeeooops! Uh... Fancy meeting you here! You're pretty dang persistent, buddy! What a pain! Fine! FINE, OK? You got me. I'll give you your coins back. Here." "Huzzat?!? Hey! Aren't you that doofus who klutzed into me? You really owe it to yourself to carry a little cash around, buddy. Treat yourself right. I mean, I went to the trouble of trying to pick your pocket, but I didn't get a single coin!" "Lemme give you a news flash: even the innocent-looking people in town are thieves! So, don't come grumbling to me about losing a little pocket change, OK, buddy?" "Lemme give you a news flash: even the innocent-looking people in town are robbers! So, don't come crying to me about losing a little pocket change, OK, buddy?" "You got some kinda problem? You think you can just barge into my hideout, buddy? ...You're probably just jealous. No one snooping around... It's the perfect hideout spot!" "You got some kinda problem? You think you can just barge into my hideout, buddy? ...You're probably just jealous. No one snooping around... It's the perfect hideout spot! With all this garbage, there are tons of flies and stuff... Who'd want to come in here?" "You got some kinda problem? You think you can just barge into my hideout, buddy? ...You're probably just jealous. No one snooping around... It's the perfect hideout spot! This garbage attracts flies and huge roaches like crazy. Who'd want to come in here?" "You got some kinda problem? You think you can just barge into my hideout, buddy? ...You're probably just jealous. No one snooping around... It's the perfect hideout spot! Since there's garbage all over, the place just REEKS! Who'd want to come in here?" "You got some kinda problem?

It's the perfect hideout spot! No windows... No breeze... It's all muggy and nasty! Who'd want to come in here?" "You got some kinda problem? You think you can just barge into my hideout, buddy? ...You're probably just jealous. No one snooping around... It's the perfect hideout spot! There's no natural light, so it's all dark and scary! Who'd want to come in here?" "You got some kinda problem? You think you can just barge into my hideout, buddy? ...You're probably just jealous. No one snooping around... It's the perfect hideout spot! Garbage... Flies... Roaches... Stinky... Dirty... Muggy... And there's no sunlight! Ohhhhhh! No WONDER! That's why nobody comes here! This place is gross! Ah, well. I can get used to living just about anywhere... I guess... Bleah."	盗賊 Tōzoku Thief
A Little Mouser in Podley's Place. Tattle: "That guy practically lives here... He must like it, huh? He's like, the ultimate regular. As far as I can tell, he's recounting the tales of every love of his life, one by one."	"... ... Can't you take a hint, pal? '...' means SCRAM! Don't talk to me!" "... ... '...' means SCRAM! Don't talk to me! My heart's burning for my long-lost love. Oh, Ms. Mowz, you sly, sultry, little thief... I hope you're doing well, wherever you are." "... ... '...' means SCRAM! Don't talk to me! My heart's burning for my long-lost love. Oh... Where has my beloved actress gone? Why did she forsake me? Yes, Flurrie was her name... She was skinny and toned, with a voice like an angel... But she left the bright lights behind and went off to live in peace and quiet..." "... ... '...' means SCRAM! Don't talk to me! My heart's burning for my long-lost love. Yes, the reception Boo at the parlor in the west part of town... How is she, I wonder? I'll never forget those eyes... and the passionate secrets that they hold." "... ... '...' means SCRAM! Don't talk to me! My heart's burning for my long-lost love. Yes, I'm speaking of the extraordinary beauty at the juice shop in Glitzville... No matter how many times I flirted, she never paid me the slightest attention..." "... ... '...' means SCRAM! Don't talk to me! My heart's burning for my long-lost love. I don't want to say this too loudly, you understand... But this blossom is the daughter of Don Pianta. Francesca, the temptress... I haven't seen her around town lately. I hope she hasn't eloped with another..." "... ... '...' means SCRAM! Don't talk to me! My heart's burning for my long-lost love. I've only ridden the Excess Express once in my entire life, you understand... But I met an angelic waitress in the dining car and gave her a present. I wonder if she's treasuring that gift, the earring I gave her out of purest love..." "... ... '...' means SCRAM! Don't talk to me! My heart's burning for my long-lost love. I've been to Poshley Heights only once in my entire life, you understand... But when I was there, I gave a gift to a gorgeous madame who lingered outdoors. I wonder if she treasures that gift, the silver ring I gave her out of purest love..." "... ... I don't think I'll ever love again... As long as the world is at peace, I'll be happy... I think... Uh..."	チューさん２ Chū-san 2 Squeek 2
A Bob-omb sailor in Podley's Place. Tattle: "That guy's a Bob-omb sailor. I think he comes here every time his ship makes port. I don't blame him. This place has totally cool atmosphere. I'd be a regular, too..."	"Oy. I used to sail around and run wild in me younger days, but I'm a reformed sailor now. I used to go 'round explodin' all over the place without givin' it much thought." "Oy. I used to sail around and run wild in me younger days, but I'm a reformed sailor now. I was blowin' up north, south, east, and west back then. I was a real nutter!" "Oy. I used to sail around and run wild in me younger days, but I'm a reformed sailor now. I used to blow up all the time without payin' any heed to wot ordinary blokes thought." "Oy. I used to sail around and run wild in me younger days, but I'm a reformed sailor now. But then I got to thinkin'... Is blowin' up a part of the national Bob-omb identity? Naw, I figured... There must be lots o' blokes bein' all Bob-omb-ish wifout blowin' up! It was after I realized that that I quit blowin' up all the time. It was an eye-opener!" "Fer a Bob-omb, blowin' up is like throwin' a punch fer an ordinary bloke... If you wanna leave the biggest impression, you gotta do it wif perfect timin'. Me mum said that once you learn that timin', yer finally an adult Bob-omb. Ah, Mum." "Once I learned proper timin' for explodin', I started thinkin' it was an art form! But now I know: an explosion's just an explosion, and there ain't no way around it..." "When I was a lad and blowin' up all the time, some mates I respected once told me... 'Explodin' without thinkin' is like drinkin' coffee wifout any cream. It's just wrong.'" "I sense a shadow fallin' across this town, mate... Now may be time fer me to release all my pent-up explosions, I'm thinkin'..." "The moment that might 'ave needed my explosions seems to 'ave passed, eh? When that sky filled up with darkness, I was so shook I almost exploded on the spot!"	水夫ボム兵 Suifu Bomuhei Sailor Bob-omb

A pink Toad walking on the street. She is a fan of Flurrie and her conversation becomes different when Flurrie is the active partner of Mario. Tattle: "That's a Toad from the west side. She's a big theatergoer, and apparently she's also a raving fan of Flurrie's."	"Wow! This town may be full of rogues and punks, but this part sure feels safe! Don Pianta does such a good job of managing things, I feel totally safe shopping here." "Omigosh omigosh omigosh! Madame Flurrie! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK! I'm such a HUGE fan! I can't believe I saw you here!" "Going to the theater is like my hobby or something! I mean, the reason I like the drama so much is 'cause I live in a town like THIS. It hasn't been as fun lately since my favorite actress left the stage for good... It's torture for fans like me..." "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK! I can't believe I got to meet you, Madame Flurrie! I loved your performance in a[sic] 'A Mid-Winter Day's Nap'! I've seen it THREE times!" "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK! I can't believe I got to meet you, Madame Flurrie!

I loved your performance in 'The Dunking of Noodle'! I've seen it 100 times!" "Going to the theater is like my hobby or something! I mean, the reason I like the drama so much is 'cause I live in a town like THIS. The worst thing is, my favorite actress made her grand comeback recently... AND I CAN'T GET TICKETS!" "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK! I can't believe I got to meet you, Madame Flurrie! I love your latest starring role in 'Paper Mario'! I've seen it 1,000 times!"	キノピオ女Ｂ Kinopio Onna B Toad Woman B
A green Toad walking on the street. He seems to belong to the family living in the easternmost house. Tattle: "That's a neighborhood kid. He seems to like going out and exploring new places. ...But he does seem to have a gripe about his family... I wonder what it is..."	"I almost fell down that grate! MAN, that was close! I know where that thing leads to, too! All too well! And I don't wanna go there!" "The reason I'm always hanging out around here is because it's so boring back at home. My dad spends all day writing bad novels that never sell, Mom LIVES at the parlor... ...And my brother never leaves the house at all. Yeah, so you can see why I'm not exactly in a rush to go back there." "My kid brother never sets foot outside. Maybe I should offer to let him play with me. Yeah... I think I'll ask him if he wants to play soccer with me." "I asked my brother if he wanted to play soccer with me, and he was so happy. If I'd known it would make him so happy, I would have asked him sooner, y'know? But since I didn't, I'll just have to play with him that much more from now on!" "I played soccer with my kid brother yesterday. Boy, it was so fun! He's actually pretty darned athletic! We're getting along really well now. We're gonna play together again tomorrow. I can't wait!"	キノピオ子供Ｂ Kinopio Kodomo B Toad Child B

I'll be back tomorrow. I... I'll be here until tomorrow." "Don Pianta? Are you kidding? Ordinary guys like me never get to meet a guy like him. Even if you were to meet him, there's no telling what he might do to you! If you really, REALLY want to see him, ask the Robbo boss on the east side about him. Yeah, I bet Ishnail will know how to get in touch with Don Pianta..." "Yes! You won't believe it! I got the fourth prize in the Happy Lucky Lottery! Tomorrow I'm gonna get the third prize for sure! Yes! I... I'll be here until tomorrow." "Yes! You won't believe it! I got the third prize in the Happy Lucky Lottery! Tomorrow I'm gonna get the second prize for sure! Yes! I...

A blue Toad on the second floor of the easternmost house. Tattle: "That guy's a frustrated novelist. He's got great ideas, but he ruins them on paper. I think he just psyches himself out. I mean, he's got the talent and all..."	"Grrr... My wife spends all day in the parlor, so I never get ANYWHERE on my novel. I need to go off to places I've never seen to get inspired to write. Or SOMETHING!" "Grrr... My wife spends all day in the parlor, so I never get ANYWHERE on my novel. I wish I could have fun, too. I want to go to Glitzville and see the matches!" "Grrr... My kid just plays all day long. I hope he's growing up normal and everything... I can't work 'cause I worry about him. I need a dark, quiet place to write... No... If it's too dark, I'll just fall asleep, and then my novel will never get written." "Grrr... My kid spends all day shut up indoors. I hope he's not warped or anything... I sure would like to go to a deserted island where I could write without any worries..." "Grrr... I can't write anything good at all... I just stink. I stink at writing. I bet if I were to ride on the Excess Express, I could come up with a good tale..." "Grrr... I can't write anything good at all... I'm just bad. I am BAD at writing. Maybe I'll take the family somewhere far away to blast my creative side into gear..." "Everyone was so happy once I finally made some solid travel plans. Imagine that! It's good to take vacations. Yeah, real good... I even got an idea for my novel! It's gonna be 'The Adventures of This Guy Standing Right Here...Mario'! Yeah! If I ever finish it, I'll let you know. I'm not promising any royalties or anything, though." "The book I wrote about your quest was a huge success. It's even been made into a play! To thank you for the inspiration, I dubbed it 'Paper Mario'!"	キノピオＡ Kinopio A Toad A
A light blue Toad kid on the first floor of the easternmost house. Tattle: "I think this kid lives here. He's afraid to go outside, so he spends all day in here. He's got some family issues, I think, but it's not our place to stick our noses in. Kids this age tend to overdramatize their problems anyway, know what I mean?"	"My dad's writing a novel. But it'll never sell. It's terrible..." "My mom just plays games all day long. She doesn't have a job. She never cleans. It's terrible..." "My brother just plays all day. He never does his homework. It's terrible..." "I never play outside at all. This town is too crowded and scary and weird... It's terrible..." "It sure would be nice to eat dinner as a family and take a vacation sometime... But we never hang out together as a family... It's terrible..." "My family never talks. We all do our own things. I just wish..." "Hey, Mom cooked spaghetti yesterday! It was soooo delicious! And my brother asked if I wanted to play soccer with him! It was so fun! And Dad said we were all going to take a trip together. I'm so happy!" "My family is so happy now. So I'm happy, too!"	キノピオ子供Ａ Kinopio Kodomo A Toad Child A
A Koopa Troopa on the second floor of the house to the west of the easternmost one. Tattle: "That Koopa lives here. He must've been born lucky, 'cause he ALWAYS succeeds. He has all the money he'll ever need, but I think he's still unfulfilled somehow. Hmm... Then again, that doesn't surprise me, since he spends all day in bed. It just goes to show, you can't buy happiness, and you should occasionally leave bed."	"Yet another day dwindles away while I loaf in bed, doing nothing... Oh, well... I AM rich, after all!" "Yet another day dwindles away while I loaf in bed, doing nothing... Oh, guess what? I won first prize in the Happy Lucky Lottery today, but... I didn't even go outside. I should have gone to collect my prize... Oh, well... I'm already rich anyway, so whatever!" "Yet another day dwindles away while I loaf in bed, doing nothing... Oh, well... The Great Gonzales won, so I'm uber-rich all over again!" "Yet another day dwindles away while I loaf in bed, doing nothing... Oh, well... I sold so much stuff in internet auctions that I'm richer than ever!" "Yet another day dwindles away while I loaf in bed, doing nothing... Oh, well... I sold the deserted island I owned for boatloads of more cash, so whatever!" "Yet another day dwindles away while I loaf in bed, doing nothing... Oh, well... But all this loafing is starting to depress me. I may have tons of money, but I have no idea how to use it! But you probably can't relate to my problems. You don't look rich at all." "Yesterday I got out of bed for the first time in a while and went for a walk. I wandered under the sky... I had completely forgotten just how blue it can be. No matter how much money I have, I'll never be able to buy that blue, blue sky. But it's given me insight into how I can use the endless sums of money I have..." "There was this guy who said he wanted to turn the novel 'Paper Mario' into a movie. He said he wanted me to help him do it. Sort of as an executive producer. I read that novel, too, and it was pretty disturbing. Still, I was moved. I thought, THIS would be an effective use of my vast sums of money! Perhaps the time for me to get out of bed and become productive has finally come."	ノコノコＡ Nokonoko A Koopa Troopa A
A purple Toad in the Pianta Parlor. She seems to belong to the family living in the easternmost house. Tattle: "That's a parlor customer.

You know, I used to have a partner named Pierre... But when he went broke, he turned to a life of crime... It was sad, really. I wonder where he is now?" "Pierre's a good person, but he spends money right and left without thinking. He made a ton on his book about the underground here, but he blew it just as fast... I guess...he was just destined for a life of crime..." "I accidentally ran into Pierre the other day at a shop aboveground... He said he left the crime biz when his boss fired him for having no thieving skills. I wonder what he'll do now... He could always come back here, I guess." "Hey there, Mr. Adventurer.

Is it REALLY made of green cheese?" "'When the world is covered in darkness, the mustached hero will rise... 'He and his companions will banish the evil back to the depths of the netherworld...'

He must be more ambitious than he looks."	"Visitors are sure rare here, but they're always welcome! Make yourselves at home." "I don't know if you know, but there's an odd-shaped boulder west of the village. Yeppity, that thing's been around since way before I was even born. I figure it must be a relic of a long-lost civilization. Sounds cool, right?" "You know, I bet there's a whole world we know nothing about past Hooktail's castle. But...wait! Don't tell me! I want to see it for myself! You know, explore. Like you!" "I want to have an adventure like you guys. Actually, I even went to Hooktail Castle once. And you know what?

Wow, you're super-duper lucky it didn't see you! I'm not even kidding with you. If it'd seen you, I'm sure it would've gobbled you up like an after-dinner mint. It must've been stuffed or thought you looked gross... At any rate, you were lucky." (GCN exclusive) "Hey, did you happen to pick up any POW Blocks on your way here? If not, you'll notice that they've got them for sale right here—hint, hint. Lucky for you that you stopped by...unless you enjoy getting clobbered to denim-clad smithereens, that is." (Switch exclusive) "Wait, my ears must be broken. Did you say you're planning on battling Hooktail? That sounds like a bad joke! And here's the punchline: you, squished to paper-thinness!"

Have you heard the rumors? Some say lots of treasure is hidden in that castle. Scores of people have gone in search of it, but...not a one has returned. So...what do you think? You're getting scared, huh?" (GCN only) "You're going to the castle? You're really dying to get that treasure, aren't you? Careful... I've heard that Hooktail's not the only nasty beast in that castle. I'd love some treasure, too, but do I want to become a snack for it? No thanks! We Koopas are long-lived for a reason, you know. Good luck being digested and all." (GCN only) "You beat Hooktail? Wow! Hey, so tell me... Find any treasure?"

I am just a simple soul, but I remain sure this is the key to restoring happiness here." "Rejoice! The fearful Hooktail is gone, and everyone is of good cheer once again! I truly hope that now people will begin to visit this village once more." "This town is very peaceful. Yes, and that is why there are so many flowers. But...I have heard there are places in the world where no flowers bloom. I could never forgive myself if I did nothing to try to bring flowers to such places. That is why I shoot out spores as often as I can. It is my civic duty!"	ノコノコG[sic] Nokonoko G Koopa Troopa G
A Koopa Troopa in the east scene. Tattle: "That's a Petalburg Koopa. He always seems to be worried about something. It's weird, too, 'cause the rest of this town is so laid-back, y'know?"	"Boy, the mayor has been so forgetful lately. I'm actually worried the old gipper may even forget my face one of these days!" "Sniff... SNIFFFFFFFF... The scent of this grass has healing properties, I swear. It just takes me to a happy place, know what I mean? You think so, too, right?" (Upon selecting either "Boy, do I!" or "You're a wacko!"

A red Toad in the east scene. Tattle: "That's a Toad from Petalburg. He just seems like a regular Toad to me... But I hear he leads a secret life as president of the Luigi Fan Club!"	"Hey, Hooktail's scary, but so is the monster that lives in the fortress near town! I mean, normal attacks are completely useless against it! At least, that's what I heard. Oh, and that's not all! Fire attacks are ALSO useless! The very idea freaks me out!" "What? No way! ...Really? You defeated the monster in that fortress? Wow! You must be tougher than you look, mister! I underestimated you." "Wait... What did you say? You defeated Hooktail, too? You really are cool, mister! Hey, wait a minute! Could you be...that super-famous guy? That guy named...Luigi? Yeah, you look just like him! I'm right, aren't I?" "Hey, Mario... You're Luigi's older brother, right? That's so cool! I mean, you're cool, too, and all, but I just think Luigi is the greatest!" "Hey, Mario... You're Luigi's older brother, right? That's so rad! I mean, you're rad, too, and all, but I just think Luigi is the greatest! See, me personally? I think that being able to jump that high is totally awesome."	ノコノコI Nokonoko I Koopa Troopa I
A Koopa Troopa guarding the east exit of Petalburg. Tattle: "That's the gatekeeper of Petalburg. He's super-dutiful about guarding this gate. But I bet he'd totally run for cover if real monsters ever did show up here... I just get a feeling about him. Goomba's intuition, maybe?"	"An old stronghold called Shhwonk Fortress lies ahead. A stone creature lives there. At least, it MIGHT live there. This gate is to keep it out. My job...is guarding the gate." "Be prepared for trouble, and trouble will pass you by. That's what I always say! By which I mean, it'd be wise to stock up on items before you go to Shhwonk Fortress. I've heard there are beasts there that you can't beat in battle without items. My personal recommendation? Probably POW Blocks. Yeah. They're always a solid choice." "You defeated the fabled stone monster of Shhwonk? Whoa! Well done! But wait... Hold on, now... That means I have no more job, doesn't it? Well, what do you suppose I should do now, huh? What a pickle..." "Huh? Did I hear that right? The stone monster appeared? So, the stories were true... You'd better go and buy some items then. You know, just to be on the safe side. Yup, that'd be a smart move. And the shopkeeper will be psyched to see you, too." "Huh?!? You say you beat Hooktail??? That's incredible! Amazing! So I guess that means your adventure is finally over, eh? What? It's only just begun?!? Wow, really? In that case, you'd better stock up on more items. I bet they'll come in handy!" "Thanks to you, it'll be calm here again. Of course, peace and quiet is bad for business. Nobody goes in that shop anymore. The business world is a rough place, man... Hey! Buy some items once in a while! The guy in the shop sure would appreciate it!"	門番ノコノコ Monban Nokonoko Gatekeeper Koopa Troopa

I mean, I GUESS that's a pretty optimistic-looking person, but what do I know?"	"Living in this dark place... It's so depressing... You know... I don't really care if I turn into a pig or not..." "Oink! Oink oink? Oink. I'm practicing for pig-time. If I go to the swine side, I'm going to be more positive. There's no more pig curse? You're kidding... Could you... give me some time alone?" "You're a real hero, huh? That's great for you... You really shine out in a dark place like this... How depressing..." "Good day... I mean, uh... Good dusk, or whatever... I never know what time it is in this weird light... Then again, I don't even know what day it is because I never leave this room..."	村人Ｂ Murabito B Villager B
Two crows on the westernmost tree in the west scene. The player can hear the longer conversations by hiding with Vivian.	"Cawf cawf cawf!" "So I was chatting with Rotbeak in Mushroom Town on instant messenger yesterday... And he said he'd just gone fiber optic on his home network, you believe that?" "Rad. I bet he's downloading 100 meg apps with no problems on those fat pipes. He's probably surfing that Feather Club for Crows site at the speed of light now." "Yeah, it just blows me away, all this 'information age' hype you hear about. And yet, it's all games and feather-loss sites that are driving the technology." "Yeah, but I think tech-bust survivors can thrive if they get viable business models..." "Funny you should mention that, actually. I'm thinking of developing a pay site called 'Paper Mario Weekly'... Yeah, it would provide real-time updates on Mario's location and activity." "Hey, that's a good idea! See, there's always a market if you can meet the users' needs like that!" "I'm thinking of starting a new pay site. It's going to be a real-estate listings page that I'll call 'Luigi's Mansion.'" "Hey, that sounds good, too! But... I think I've heard that name before. You don't want rabid lawyers attacking you..."	-
Three crows on the tree near Mayor Dour's house in the west scene. The player can hear the longer conversations by hiding with Vivian.	"Cawf cawf cawf!" "I've been really depressed lately, thinking about the depletion of fossil fuels..." "Yeah, tell me about it. We've got to come up with a renewable energy source before that happens..." "Like wind, or hydroelectric... I think solar energy probably has the greatest potential." "Oh yeah? What's the current efficiency conversion rate for solar power?" "Well, it's still down around 10%, but that number's only going to go up, you know?" "I wouldn't consider it feasible for commercial ventures until it gets up to 30% or so. And then you've still got the problem of the sun never coming up in this village..." "When will people wake up and realize that environmental problems won't just go away?" "No kidding. Air pollution, global warming, acid rain, the ozone layer depletion... They didn't start on their own, and they aren't going to end on their own, either." "Yeah... But I just don't see a solution at this rate of global population growth..."	-
A Twilighter in the open area of the east scene. Tattle: "That's a local Twilighter. He's pretty into how important the moon is here. I gotta admit, it sure is prominent in this dusk... but he still may be a werewolf."	"In this village, the moon is really all we can rely on. It can even grant wishes! Don't let me turn into a pig... Don't let me turn into a pig... I'll even give up bacon..." "The moon granted my wish! I never turned into a pig! Someone living on the moon must have heard my wish! Who do you think lives there?" (Upon selecting "Little Green Men" or "Princess Peach") "Ha ha ha! Too funny! You must be a dreamer... What an imagination!" "I had this weird dream... Yeah, you were on the moon. Hey, if it ever comes true... Could you check to see who really lives up there?" "In this village, the moon is really all we can rely on. It can even grant wishes! I wish that Twilight Town will always be peaceful and ever so dim..."	村人Ｇ Murabito G Villager G

The Twilighter, turned normal after Doopliss's defeat. Tattle: "That's a local Twilighter. This person is still oinking. That's... not normal. You think this Twilighter's still not completely human?"	"The curse was OINK lifted. That Mario sure was OINK something, wasn't he? Ahhh... I can't stop oinking. What should I OINK do?" "What OINK? Mario's not Mario, and Mario was the OINK bad guy? I'm confused. That means... Ummm... Mario's OINK a bad guy? Are you oinking me? OINK!" "Oink oink oink oink... Mario wasn't OINK Mario. Mario was the OINK bad guy... So Mario was really the OINK hero of our village... Oink oink oink oink! I'm just not OINK getting this at all..."	村人Ｉ Murabito I Villager I

The Twilighter, turned normal after Doopliss's defeat. Her true form resembles Eve. Tattle: "That's a dignified old woman. Hey, there was a dignified pig here earlier, right? I KNEW it!"	"The curse has been lifted since Mario beat that bad, bad ghost! Ah, that perfect red cap! Those scuffed blue overalls! He's the absolute best! Why don't you do something about your appearance and spiff up like Mario, huh?" "Hey, how are you, Mario? Nice weather, isn't it? You can't tell, you say? Well, take my word for it. It's nice today." "Hey, how are you, Mario? You look extra-nice today, as usual. I mean, no one in this village would ever wear that hat with those overalls. I mean that in a nice way, of course... You're a total trendsetter, seriously!"	村人Ｊ Murabito J Villager J
A Twilighter in the open area of the east scene, near the houses. Tattle: "That's a local Twilighter. Are all these people wearing major eyeliner or what? Oh! Maybe it's like, a local fashion thing! Didn't they get the memo that goth is out?"	"I've been thinking lately... If I'm gonna turn into a pig... I wanna be a big ol' FAT one. 'Cause what's the point in being a skinny pig, right? Gotta embrace the pigginess!" (GCN) "I've been thinking lately... If I'm gonna turn into a pig... I wanna be a big one. 'Cause what's the point in being a pipsqueak pig, right? Gotta embrace the pigginess!" (Switch) "I've been thinking lately... I don't really wanna be a pig... but being a crow could be OK. Because then I could fly. No one's ever heard of a flying pig..." "I've been thinking lately... Maybe being a human is best. If I wasn't human, we wouldn't be having this conversation... And that would be too sad." "I've been thinking lately... In my next life... I wanna be a strong person like you who helps people everywhere... What's that? I should start now? Oh well, you know... I'd rather do it next life..."	村人Ｈ Murabito H Villager H
A Twilighter near the fences in the southeast of the east scene. Tattle: "That's a novelist who lives in Twilight Town. I wonder what kind of novels he writes? I can't believe people actually read in this town. The light would kill my eyes."	"Yes, I'm a novelist, and I read several books a day. Not all pop-up books, either. I wonder if pigs can read... I'm a bit concerned about it, to be honest." "Yes, I'm a novelist. It's not all that easy on the eyes, but I read by moonlight. So what kind of books do you like, anyway?" (Upon selecting "Fantasy", "Suspense", "Romance" or "Strategy Guides") "Shouldn't you spend your time reading something a little more worthwhile?" "Yes, I'm a novelist. It's not all that easy on the eyes, but I write by moonlight. Being a tortured novelist, writing through the night is not an unusual thing for me." "Yes, I'm a novelist, and I've actually just recently finished a new work! It's a heartwarming love story exploring the endless rooms of the heart. ...What? You prefer horror? Figures..." "Yes, I'm a novelist. My book has just recently been made into a film, actually. Unfortunately, the idiot producers reinterpreted my love story as a horror film... I swear, the movie industry is absolutely ruining the written word."	村人Ｆ Murabito F Villager F

A crow on the northwestern tree in the east scene. The player can hear the longer conversations by hiding with Vivian.	"Caw caw caw caw!" "Alas, this twilit world is too full of pain and contradiction, too full of broken dreams. Perhaps I was only given wings so that I could flee the terror of mundanity..." "And yet, tiny sparks of hope gleam in this dim existence, like pearls in the murk. The smallest glow of kindness shines so brightly in this infinite darkness... Perhaps I have wings so that I may fly to this small light..." "Yea, verily, I have decided! I will go on an epic journey! I will gather what light I can! Though I am a mere crow... I cannot embark on such a quest in this darkness... Very well, I will fly at dawn... Will dawn ever come?"	-
Two crows on the northeastern tree in the east scene. The player can hear the longer conversations by hiding with Vivian.	"Caw caw caw caw!" "So that Mario guy meeting with the mayor, he's actually the bad guy, right? And nobody even knows. Humans are so dumb, it makes me want to peck their noses." "The only soul that knows the bad guy's name is locked under Creepy Steeple, I hear. Because, you know, if no one knows your name, then you can use unstoppable magic." "But if someone says your real name to you, then your magic will stop working..." "So...I wonder how all this is going to end up, then?" "A little birdie told me that the princess of the Mushroom Kingdom got kidnapped again. They must have her locked up safe and sound somewhere far away, huh? But still..." "That Peach is cute and all, but come ON... Any girl that gets kidnapped every weekend is just going to break your heart, y'know... Not that Mario ever gets sick of saving her. That guy is a total glutton for punishment..."	-

Please come back when you have enough, OK?" "You have too much stuff! Please, sell, use, or store something, then come back!"	-
A penguin walking outside in the second scene. Tattle: "That's a resident of Poshley Heights. He's related to Herringway, the novelist. Now that he's used to life here, he seems to be making the most of it, huh?"	"I'd heard Poshley Heights was a quiet place...but there are lots of tourists, eh? Maybe I should just open up a store selling Shiver City souvenirs? Yah, maybe so..." "Lately, there've been fewer tourists, so things are really quiet, eh?

A penguin in the house in the second scene. Tattle: "That's a resident of Poshley Heights. He's related to Herringway, the novelist.

Another penguin in the house in the second scene. Tattle: "That's a resident of Poshley Heights. He's related to Herringway, the novelist.

Or go ice-skating... Or any of the stuff I did in Shiver City, eh? Don't know what you got 'til it's gone!" "I've been traveling back and forth between Shiver City and Poshley Heights lately. Yah, there are some things you can only do here and some you can only do there. So I've been trying to get the best of both worlds, yah, you betcha."	ターくん２ Tā-kun 2 Bumpty 2
A penguin in the west of the third scene. Tattle: "That's a resident of Poshley Heights. He says he walks barefoot for his health. I wonder if I should try that..."

Care to join me, guy?"	ターくん６ Tā-kun 6 Bumpty 6
A penguin in the south of the third scene. Tattle: "That's a resident of Poshley Heights. He's totally fixated on this spot, for some reason. I was thinking maybe he hops into the fountain on really hot days... But wasn't there a nasty old snapping Nibbles in that fountain?"	"Hey, there. Poshley Heights is sure nice and warm, eh? Yah, I really dig it here. Cold places make me sneeze..." "Hey, there. Poshley Heights is sure nice and warm, huh? Yeah, I really dig it here. Cold places make me sneeze..."	ターくん４ Tā-kun 4 Bumpty 4
A penguin in the east of the third scene. Tattle: "That's a resident of Poshley Heights. He really, REALLY likes the sanctum. Really. I kinda see where he's coming from... It IS a nice building.

I could just stare at it all day, you betcha!"	ターくん５ Tā-kun 5 Bumpty 5

BA-BOOIE? They say moon is round like earth, BA-POW... But, I am not even sure... that earth is round, BA-KOW! Why? Well, space is out there, but cannot be seen, right, BA-PLOWIE?
