- “You want somethin', chump? This is the fortress of the Robo Thieves. You lost?”
- —Ishnail, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
Ishnail is a Snail-like creature who is the leader of the Robbo Gang and the rival of Don Pianta in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. Ishnail has apparent money problems. Ishanail's base of operations can be found on the East side of Rogueport. Under his influence, the East side is far less secure than the West. It is unkempt, dirty, and serves as a hiding place for many bandits. His guard Gus even demands money for entering the further part of the East side. The West side is, on the contrary, rather secure and clean.
On his quest for a Blimp Ticket, Mario needed Ishnail's help on how to visit Don Pianta. For 64 coins, Ishnail informed him that he needed to buy a Dried Shroom, followed by a Dizzy Dial, in Peeka's shop, a secret sign known only to friends of Don Pianta.
Tattle Information
- That's Ishnail, leader of the thief band called the Robbos. He REALLY hates Don Pianta. I guess that's to be expected, since they're bitter rivals and everything. He's got some issues about money, but he's OK otherwise. Who knew?
Trivia
- His name is a play on the main character of Moby Dick, Ishmael. Removing "Ih" gives "snail", which Ishnail is. He is also the second Paper Mario character whose name is a reference to Ishmael, the first being Fishmael.
- Ishnail's price of 64 coins is an obvious reference to the Nintendo 64.
