|inhabitants=[[Bandit]]s, [[Bob-omb]]s, [[Boo]]s, [[Craw]]s, [[Doogan]]s, [[Goomba]]s, [[Pianta]]s, [[Little Mouser]]s, [[Shaman]]s, [[Toad (species)|Toad]]s, [[Twilighter]]s, [[Koopa Troopa]]s, various other and unknown races

'''Rogueport''' is the hub world and starting point in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. It was built by generations of poor folk after the battle between the [[Black Chest Demon|four heroes]] and the [[Shadow Queen]]. The area was barren and in ruins, so the people built Rogueport over the old city, which is now [[Rogueport Underground]]. Over the centuries, only a handful of people have seen [[the Thousand-Year Door]]. Even a thousand years later it still contains a great evil power. Those who live in the sewers fear the area where the Door is.

[[Mario]] comes here at the beginning of the game to meet [[Princess Peach]] because she found the [[Magical Map]]. In Rogueport, there are two item shops. There is an inn and a [[Chuckola Cola (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Chuckola Cola]] bar, the [[Lovely Howz of Badges]], the [[Pianta Parlor]], and two entrances to the Rogueport Underground.

==Sub-Locations==

Ships regularly anchor at the place. During his adventures in Rogueport, Mario takes [[Flavio]]'s ship, the [[S.S. Flavion]], to [[Keelhaul Key]] from here. Later, Mario returns to the mainland aboard [[Cortez]]'s ship, the [[Black Skull]]. The Black Skull continues to anchor at the site after Chapter 5. People Mario can meet at the docks include [[Lumpy]] and [[Pa-Patch]] (before Chapter 5). The docks are in their majority are [[Bob-omb]]s and some [[Toad (species)|Toad]]s.

There is also a hidden area to the left of the harbor itself that is only accessible once Mario can use [[Boat Mode]]. This area contains a chest with the [[HP Drain (badge)|HP Drain]] badge as well as a [[Star Piece (Paper Mario series)|Star Piece]]. Other objects there suggest someone lives there, but they are never present.

The plaza separates the west side controlled by [[Don Pianta]] and the east side ruled by [[Ishnail]]. Neither of the opposing parties seem to have a total control over the marketplace. At the very beginning of the game, as Goombella starts to tell Mario what is going on and [[Toadsworth]] is telling Mario the whereabouts of [[Princess Peach|Peach]], two members of the [[Pianta syndicate]] can be seen ambushing and threatening two [[Robbo Thieves|Robbo]] members in front of Podley's Place. Several criminals reside behind the main buildings, through an archway. A Bandit resides in a house behind Podley's Place; this is the same Bandit that robs Mario at the beginning of the game. If spoken to, he will give Mario his stolen coins back. McGoomba also resides in this area. The plaza in its majority is [[Doogan]]s, [[Toad (species)|Toad]]s, [[Goomba]]s, and [[Little Mousers]].

The East Side of Rogueport, also called '''Ishnail’s Turf''' by its inhabitants, is an insecure and run-down place controlled by the [[Robbo Thieves]], led by Ishnail. [[Bandit]]s roam the streets, and when Mario first enters the area, he immediately gets robbed half his coins. This part of town is dirty and the houses are in bad shape. Nevertheless, this area is home to [[Merlon]] and [[Professor Frankly]]. The pipe to the [[Rogueport Underground]] is just outside Professor Frankly's house, initially blocked by a rotten piece of fence that is removed by Frankly after Mario initially meets with him. The furthest east part of the east side is guarded by [[Gus]]. Mario has to pay him or fight him in order to pass. In that area, there is the [[Trouble Center]] and [[Bobbery|Admiral Bobbery]]'s house. [[Garf]]’s house is the furthest-east building accessible, and can be entered after completing his trouble. Next to the door, there is a stack of crates that can only be reached using [[Yoshi Kid]]’s [[Flutter Jump]]. This leads to the rooftops, where Bobbery’s chimney, which can be entered using [[Tube Mode]], is located, as well as the storyteller [[Grifty]].

The West Side is a relatively clean and secure area of Rogueport controlled by the Pianta Syndicate. It is initially inaccessible to Mario due to [[Zess T.]] blocking it after Mario breaks her [[Contact Lens]]; once a replacement Contact Lens is delivered to her from the [[Toad Bros. Bazaar]], which can be done as early as midway through Chapter 1, she moves out of the way, allowing Mario to enter.

This area is much cleaner than the East Side, and there is a fountain as well as a small park. [[Lucky]], who manages the [[Happy Lucky Lottery]], is found in the southwestern area. In the center of the street, there is a sewer grate which Mario can enter using Paper Mode to reach the western part of Rogueport Underground. The park area features a tall pipe that acts as the exit to the western part of the sewers, and is too tall to enter from outside.

The Pianta Syndicate runs the [[Pianta Parlor]] and the [[Westside Goods]] item shop in the area. After buying a [[Dried Mushroom]] and [[Dizzy Dial]] in that order at Westside Goods and answering the shopkeeper [[Peeka]]’s question about Mario’s favorite color, with “yellow” (a password that Mario can learn from Ishnail), Mario is granted access to the Pianta syndicate’s headquarters through a back staircase, where Don Pianta resides for most of the game. Next to Westside Goods, there is a cracked wall that can be destroyed by Bobbery, leading to a small back alley containing a [[Shine Sprite]].

Rogueport Station is the center of transportation in Rogueport, located north of the west side. It contains both the port for the [[Cheep Blimp]] as well as the [[Excess Express]]’ station. Mario must acquire tickets for each of these modes of transport to access [[Glitzville]] and [[Poshley Heights]], respectively.

*"''This is Rogueport's east side. It's considered dangerous here, even for Rogueport! This is Ishnail's turf. He's the leader of a band of thieves called the Robbos. Then again, you can also find Merlon here. He can help your partners level up. Still, it's definitely too rough a place for a girl like me to walk alone... ♥''" (GCN)

*"''This is Rogueport's west side. This is totally the friendlier face of Rogueport. Not that it's, y'know, a great place to raise a family, but it's good for Rogueport. The corner with the fountain is definitely the most restful spot in Rogueport. This area is controlled by Don Pianta, head of the Pianta syndicate... Yeah. The shop and parlor here are totally fronts for his 'business.{{'}}''" (GCN)

*''An unseemly place full of rogues and thugs. The harbor is in the south, a thieves' hideout lies to the east, the western area is home to the Pianta syndicate's HQ, and Rogueport Station is to the north. Trains and airships'' (GCN) / ''blimps'' (Switch)'' connect to other towns.''

|GerM=Pun on German village names ending on ''-ingen'', merged with ''Rohling'' ("brute"). Also note that ''roh'' can mean "rough"

*Parts of the background music in Rogueport are iterations of the theme of Toad Town.

*In the Japanese version of the original game, a Toad-shaped {{wp|chalk outline}} with blood can be seen in [[Larson]]'s house in the East side, but it was removed from the Western version, as well as all versions of the remake, to maintain an all-ages rating.<ref>[https://www.nintendoworldreport.com/interview/2205/the-treehouse-interview Interview with Nintendo Treehouse]</ref>
