'''Craw-Daddy''', also known as '''The Dark Gatekeeper''', is a [[Dark Craw]] and fighter in [[Glitzville]] found in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. His name is a play on both his species and "crawdad," a name sometimes used for the {{wp|crayfish}}. He is ranked fourth in the [[Glitz Pit]], below [[Hamma, Bamma, and Flare]] but above [[The Fuzz]]. Once Mario wins the championship, he is moved into fifth.

'''Craw-Daddy''', a.k.a. '''The Dark Gatekeeper''', is a fighter in [[Glitzville]] found in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. The group consists of a single [[Dark Craw]]. He is ranked fourth in the [[Glitz Pit]], below [[Hamma, Bamma, & Flare]] but above [[The Fuzz]]. That is, until [[Mario|The Great Gonzales]] knocks him out of fourth into fifth.


Since Craw-Daddy uses his spear to attack, Mario is not able to [[jump]] on him without getting hurt - unless he has the [[Badge#Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door 2|Spike Shield]]. Instead, Mario must rely heavily on [[hammer]] attacks or using [[Items|items]]. Although he has no defense, he makes it up with high amounts of health and powerful attacks.
