- —Garf, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
Garf the Craw is a member of Ishnail's Robbo Thieves and is a relative of Gus. At the beginning of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, two Craws that are likely Garf and Gus are beaten up by two of Don Pianta's henchmen. After the first chapter, Garf puts up a trouble in the Trouble Center, asking for someone to find the House Key to his house. If Mario accepts the trouble and completes it, Garf will allow Mario to go into his house, but Garf will return to Ishnail's hideout soon after.
Profiles[edit]
- Tattle: "That's Garf, part of the Robbo gang. I'm pretty sure he's related to Gus. He looks pretty gnarly, but he's actually pretty cool. Don't judge folks on looks!"

Notes[edit]
- Though Garf's Tattle only mentions that he is related to Gus, it is possible that the two are brothers. When the Craws are being assaulted by the Piantas, one of them yells, "Stay down, Bro!" The line in Japanese, 「 アニキーっ! 」, could also imply that they are brothers. However, it is not confirmed that these two Craws are Gus and Garf, and both "Bro" and「 アニキ 」do not always refer to one's literal brother.
