Toodles

"Well, hello there, you big, burly hunk of a man you. You're smashing, dear."

- Toodles

Toodles is a wealthy Toad who lives in the ritzy neighborhood of Poshley Heights in the game Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. Toodles' name might be a pun of "toodles", another way to say goodbye stereotypically associated with posh or wealthy people, especially women.

She likes to flaunt her wealth by wearing expensive fur dresses and luxurious jewelry. It is unknown how Toodles amassed her vast fortune; however, the game indicates that she is a gold digger, using her physical attractiveness to leech off the wealth of men. In fact, when Mario first met Toodles, she was standing in the lobby of the Glitz Pit, looking for the champion so that she could flirt with him when he arrived, even ignoring Mario as she waited. However, once Mario claimed the title for himself, Toodles's flirtatious advances shifted as well.

Later, Mario and his team run into Toodles on the Excess Express during their quest for the Garnet Star. After her stay in Glitzville, Toodles decided to return to her home in Poshley Heights via the luxury locomotive. During the three-day trip back home, her Gold Ring is stolen by Doopliss (disguised as Zip Toad). The Shadow Sirens plan to use the ring, along with the waitress's Shell Earrings and the Nitro Honey Syrup from the Businessman's briefcase to bomb the train and fulfill the "sticky, yummy doom" Mario has been warned of in an effort to prevent the team from reaching the Star. Team Mario later catch the fake Zip Toad, who reluctantly relinquishes the ring that Mario returns to Toodles.

Unfortunately, during the third day aboard the Excess Express, Toodles is among the passengers who are absorbed into a Smorg monster that attacks the train. Thankfully, Team Mario defeat the Smorg and save the wealthy Toad, thus allowing her to arrive safely in Poshley Heights.

When Bowser and Kammy Koopa visit Poshley Heights during an intermission after Chapter 7, Bowser can optionally talk to Toodles, who expresses her desire to mount his "terribly fine horns" to highlight her social status, which Bowser rejects in disgust.

While Mario battles the Shadow Queen, Toodles cheers for Mario, revealing to Pennington that the player is Mario, not Luigi.

Apparently, Toodles is friends with Jolene, the current manager of the Glitz Pit. In her Trouble Center trouble, Toodles asks for Mario to return the Wrestling Mag that she loaned to Jolene.
