Thriff T.: Difference between revisions

'''Thriff T.''' is a [[Toad (species)|Toad]] merchant from ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. His name is pun on the word "Thrifty", which means to spend wisely. He is the younger brother of [[Plenn T.]] who manages the [[Toad Bros. Bazaar|Item-Shop]] of [[Rogueport]]. Though Thriff T. and his brother get along well, he dreams to open his own shop someday. When he gets wind of [[Mario]]'s ambitions to sail to [[Keelhaul Key]] he immediately joins his crew because he sees his big chance in this. After the Crew's [[S.S. Flavion|ship]] gets attacked by [[Ember]]s and its passengers are trapped on Keelhaul Key, Thriff T. indeed gets his own [[Keelhaul Galleria|shop]], though it is just a tentative one made from debris. He decides to stay on Keelhaul Key even after Mario defeated [[Cortez]], implying that he finally grew a liking to the deserted island and is willing to make a life there. The fifth issue of the [[Rogueport Direct Mail Service]] talks about his shop. According to it, Triff T. opened up his shop there because he dreamed of doing something that hadn't been done before. He is also mentioned to be a former fighting fan. During the interview, he declares himself "the invincible shopmaster" and wants everyone to call him that.
