Rogueport is the main town and starting point in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. Mario comes here at the beginning of the game to meet Princess Peach because she found the Magical Map. In Rogueport, there is an item shop, the Lovely Howz of Badges, the Pianta Parlor, and two entrances to the Rogueport Sewers.

The town is divided into five sections, the north side, the west side, the main plaza, the docks, and the east side. Mario will be moving through here constantly throughout the game. He can also find his brother Luigi in the different areas of Rogueport during different chapters.

Rogueport was built by poor folk generations after the battle between the four heroes and the Shadow Queen. The area was barren and in ruins, so the people built Rogueport over the old city, which is mostly Rogueport Sewers. Over the centuries, probably only a handful of people have touched the Thousand-Year Door. Even a millenia later it still contains a great evil power. Those who live in the sewers fear the area where the Door is.

Rogueport and its surrounding areas are a part of the Mushroom Kingdom, although it is speculated that they are the outskirts.

Residents

The majority of the population is considered to be thieving and notorious. This is more true in the eastern side of Rogueport. Toads, Goombas, Doogans, Craws, and Bandits make up the majority of the population. A Bandit can be found upon first entering the East Side, running past Mario and stealing his coins. He owns a house full of trash in the back alley of The Plaza. When Mario finds him, he will recover all the coins the Bandit stole.

Trivia

  • Rogueport is based on Roguefort, a town in France.
  • Rogueport is also similar to Toad Town from Paper Mario.

Area Tattles

  • This is Rogueport Harbor. Ships come here from all over the world! Everybody's always working their tails off down here. No wonder it's totally sweaty. Sometimes this area's all stacked high with cargo from all the ships. The water smells pretty rank, but that's like, the magic of a port town, y'know?
  • This is Rogueport's main square. It's sorta the central shopping area, I guess. There are lots of regular working folks here, but there are also ne'er-do-wells... If you venture into the back alleys, be ready to deal with some nasty sorts...
  • 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...
  • 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."
  • This is Rogueport Station. You can board intercity trains or blimps here. The Excess Express bound for Poshley Heights is nice and shiny, isn't it? Wow! I bet all the town kids are just DYING to ride it at least once, y'know? That blimp way over at the airfield looks super-cool, too. Blimps are awesome!
