'''Bootler''' is a [[Boo]] butler who works for [[Lady Bow]] in [[Boo's Mansion]] during the events of ''[[Paper Mario]]''. He also acts as her personal adviser. Bootler is very over-protective of Lady Bow, and initially opposes her joining [[Mario]] on his quest to defeat [[Tubba Blubba]] (and even then wishes to go along with her, though she does not acquiesce). This protective behavior towards his mistress makes him similar to [[Toadsworth]]. | '''Bootler''' is a [[Boo]] butler who works for [[Lady Bow]] in [[Boo's Mansion]] during the events of ''[[Paper Mario]]''.

His name is a pun on "Boo" and "butler". [[Goombario]] | His name is a pun on "Boo" and "butler". [[Goombario]] states that "his title would be 'butler'" upon [[Tattle|tattling]] Bootler, indicating that the portmanteau in his name may have simply been caused by the unique Boo speech patterns seen exclusively in ''Paper Mario'' (which do indeed involve replacing words and parts of words with "Boo"). He, the Boo portraits found on the second floor of [[Boo's Mansion]], and later [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]]'s [[Boo Mario|Boo form]]s all have facial hair. | ||

Bootler seems to have a certain connection with Lady Bow's ancestors. He constantly reminds her that the ancestors would be displeased if she was harmed in any way. According to a seemingly knowledgeable [[Toad (species)|Toad]] found near [[Toad Town]]'s port, Bootler was once in love with Lady Bow's grandmother, who was apparently Boo's Mansion's mistress during Bow's early childhood. This Toad also reveals that, in his youth, Bootler traveled the globe with [[Goompa]] and [[Koopa Koot]]. | Bootler seems to have a certain connection with Lady Bow's ancestors.

*Bootler is the only minor character in the [[Paper Mario (series)|''Paper Mario'' series]] to make a visual appearance in three of six games, aside from [[Whacka]], who is likely three different Whackas in all his appearances, as there is more than one Whacka. | *Bootler is the only minor character in the [[Paper Mario (series)|''Paper Mario'' series]] to make a visual appearance in three of six games, aside from [[Whacka]], who is likely three different Whackas in all his appearances, as there is more than one Whacka. | ||
