'''Charold''' is a character found in the [[Underwhere]] in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''.  For a fee of four [[coin]]s, he will ferry the [[player]] across the [[River Twygz]]. However, this is not required, since the four heroes can just swim across the water. The relation between Charold and [[Queen Jaydes]] is not mentioned. It is also unknown whether or not Charold is, in fact, living his "after-game" life or working for Queen Jaydes.


'''Charold''' is a character found in [[The Underwhere]] in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. He is based on [[wikipedia:Charon (mythology)|Charon]], the ferryman who, for a price, brings deceased souls across the river Styx to Hades in Greek Mythology. His name is a portmanteau of "Charon" and "Harold".
==Trivia==
*Charold's name is based on the ferrier of the Underworld in Greek Mythology, Charon.


For a fee of four [[coin]]s, he will ferry the player across the [[River Twygz]]. The relation between Charold and [[Queen Jaydes]] is not mentioned. It is also unknown whether or not Charold is, in fact, living his "after-game" life or working for Queen Jaydes. The number of 4 coins most likely is a reference to the number 4 being an unlucky number in Japanese lore, sounding quite similar to the word for death in Japanese.
