- “The way I see it, the more money you have, the more money you WANT to have. If I have enough to help my friends and enjoy my days, I'll be fine. Secret of life, man!”
- —Arfur, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
Arfur is a minor character from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. He is one of several Doogans that live in Rogueport, a town full of thieves. He and his good friend Swindell can usually be found on the eastside of the town in front of the Trouble Center. Goombella remarks that both Arfur and Swindell are often whispering to each other about something unknown.
History
Arfur is usually encountered in front of the Trouble Center. While he has actually no real impact on the plot, he leaves a request at the Trouble Center once during the game. Arfur plans to open his own shop, and he needs to know the current value of Fire Flowers, Sleepy Sheeps, and Tasty Tonics, based on their prices in local stores. Mario can collect this information, but it is also possible to simply lie to Arfur, as he will not suspect anything. After he receives the information, he will state that he can in no way compete with the other stores' prices and will ditch his idea again.
