Flavio is a 25-year old "famous" Rogueport entrepreneur. He has in his possession many fine ships, his favorite being the S.S. Flavion, which he and Mario used to travel to Keelhaul Key. Unfortunately, the S.S. Flavion was destroyed in the very same voyage. He enjoys believing that he is a fearless, brilliant man that others idolize and envy, but he is not particularly popular among his crew, or anyone, as a matter of fact.
Mario can first meet Flavio at Podley's bar. When talked to, he rants about his prized possesion, the Skull Gem. When Mario and his friends need to get to Keelhaul Key in order to obtain the fifth Crystal Star, they decide to ask Flavio to ferry them there with his ship, the S.S. Flavion. Flavio reluctantly accepts to take Mario to Keelhaul Key under the condition that he gets all the treasures of the pirate king Cortez. After finding an experienced helmsman to help with the voyage, Mario boards the ship and the group shoves off.
On the trip to Keelhaul Key, Cortez's forces successfully attack the ship. The group eventually makes it to Keelhaul Key and they set up camp there. After a long trek, Mario eventually finds a mysterious skull rock with an opening in it. He summons Flavio and asks to borrow the Skull Gem, since it fits right into the opening in the skull rock. An entrance to Cortez's home, the Pirate's Grotto, is subsequently revealed.
Mario explores the grotto and eventually fights Cortez for the Crystal Star. However, he discovers that Cortez is immortal, and simply asks for the star, which the pirate gives to him. Mario exits the grotto and finds out that Lord Crump and his forces are bombarding the island with their ship. Flavio suggests to ask Cortez to borrow his ship, the Black Skull. After some negotiating, Cortez agrees to give Mario the ship. After a battle with the X-Nauts, Lord Crump decides to retreat, and Mario and co. go back to Rogueport.
Apparently, after the incident and bidding Mario farewell for now, he got insurance for his boat wreck and became the second richest man in Rogueport.
Flavio was punched in the face by Zess T. after causing gourmet ingredients to spoil on the dock by holding up a crew with a two-day story. He temporarily lost his memory as a result.
Tattle
- That's the entrepreneur, Flavio. He's like, super-rich, and he owns lots of ships. What's he doing in here so early in the day, though? Think he's doing OK?
Names in other languages
Trivia
- He is also known to be the editor of the mysterious magazine Foppish Gourmet Weekly.
- Flavio's name is most likely derived from the Latin word flavus, which means "yellow", a reference to the color of his skin, as well as his cowardly nature.
- During Chapter 6, Pa-Patch (who chooses to stay on Keelhaul Key) sends Mario an email saying "Every now and then that cretin Flavio spits out some bit o' drivel about treadin' water instead o' seizin' life, but I just tune 'im out." This makes it sound as though Flavio was staying at Keelhaul Key as well, when it is clear he returned to Rogueport after Chapter 5 and is not seen on Keelhaul Key again, although it is possible that he often sails to Keelhaul Key with Cortez as Bobbery does after the game's final boss is defeated.
