| '''Goompa''' is [[Goombario]] and [[Goombaria]]'s grandfather in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. He is an elder [[Goomba]] and has extensive knowledge of the world, which comes from his adventures as a youth. In his prime, he used to travel the globe with his friends [[Koopa Koot]] and [[Bootler]]. According to [[Russ T.]] after [[Paper Mario#Chapter 7: A Star Spirit on Ice|Chapter 7]], Goompa used to be a famous fighter and sparred with [[The Master]] when they were young. Now an elderly grandfather with back aches, Goompa has taught his grandson everything he knows. According to the iQue release, Goompa is his grandchildren's paternal grandfather.

| Goompa lives in [[Goomba Village (location)|Goomba Village]] with the rest of his family. In the beginning of the story, Goompa is fixing the veranda of their home with his [[Hammer]]. When [[Mario]] attempts to leave the village, [[Kammy Koopa]] appears and, using her magic, creates a yellow block that prevents Mario from leaving. Mario decides to ask Goompa for his Hammer and walks to the veranda. Unfortunately, the veranda has fallen apart, causing Goompa and Mario to plummet to the ground below. In order to get back to the village, Goompa temporarily joins Mario, and in lieu of fighting, he teaches Mario how to use the game's battle system and gives Mario his Hammer after it is found. Goompa also gives Mario the [[Power Jump]] badge after getting back to his house, and goes on to tell Mario how to equip and use badges. | | '''Goompa''' is [[Goombario]] and [[Goombaria]]'s grandfather.

| One of the favors that Koopa Koot asks of Mario is that he retrieve a [[Tape (Paper Mario)|Tape]] that had been lent to Goompa a long time ago. When Mario retrieves the tape, he is curious of its contents, but Goompa refuses to tell him what is on the tape, commenting only that he enjoyed listening to it. During the party's quest to save Peach, Goompa writes [[List of letters in Paper Mario#Goompa|a letter]] to [[Goombario]], which the player can read at the [[Toad Town Post Office]]. Mario can also find a [[letter]] for Goompa by hitting the tree at [[Kolorado]]'s camp in [[Dry Dry Desert (Paper Mario)|Dry Dry Desert]] after Mario visits [[Fice T.]] prior to Chapter 3. Should [[Parakarry]] deliver it to him, he rewards Mario with a [[Star Piece (Paper Mario series)|Star Piece]].

| Goompa has a C-Down command like all partners. In the beginning of the game when Goompa acts as Mario's partner, pressing C-Down makes Goompa move behind Mario if he is not already. His name appears in the coding of the game in Mario's list of partners along with Goombaria and Twink. He, like all of the removed partners, has an identical icon to [[Kooper]]'s. Despite this, there is a [[List of Paper Mario glitches|glitch]] in the game that lets Mario take Goompa outside of Goomba Village. However, he has no attacks and crashes the game if the partner menu is opened when he is the active partner.<ref>Stryder7x (August 13, 2015). [https://youtu.be/SN1n7X5NMcM Goompa Joined Your Party!
