'''Zess T.''' is a grumpy, 55-year-old [[Toad (species)|Toad]] chef in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' who resides in [[Rogueport]]. Her name is a pun on the word "zesty", which, in a way, describes her personality, as well as being a reference to her cooking skills. Like [[Tayce T.]], she is an expert at cooking, and even featured a similar backstory involving cakes and a deceased husband. Unlike Tayce T., however, her personality is the polar opposite; she has a sour attitude and is very mean and grumpy, calling [[Mario]] names and keeping a mean expression on her face. Her attitude is similar to [[Dyllis]]. | |||
[[Mario]] first | [[File:Zess T. in Rogueport.png|thumb|Zess T. looking for her missing Contact Lens]] | ||
[[Mario]] first comes across her as she is searching for her missing [[Contact Lens]]; after Mario accidentally steps on it and crushes it, Zess T. refuses to allow him into [[Rogueport#West Side|Rogueport's West Side]] until he buys her a new one. Even after he does, Zess T. still harbors a bit of a grudge, referring to him as names such as "Stompy" or "Sir Stomps-on-Stuff". However, Wonky implies that she does ultimately have a bit of a soft spot for Mario since he mentions when describing [[Couple's Cake]] that, due to it reminding her of her deceased husband, she rarely bakes the cake unless someone really wins her favor. | |||
[[ | Her cooking is limited to one item at a time until Mario finds [[List of implied characters#Maitre Delish|Maitre Delish]]'s [[Cookbook]] hidden in a back room of [[Creepy Steeple]]. After completing [[Seeking Legendary Book!|this task]], she is able to cook two items into one. | ||

*According to an [[Rogueport Direct Mail Service|RDM]] issue Mario receives via e-mail, Zess T. is 55 years old in the game. Additionally, another RDM issue claims Zess T. and [[Toadsworth]] became romantically involved during his stay in [[Rogueport]]. However, this is never mentioned outside of the e-mail. | |||
