-'''Troff''' is a large pink [[pig]] encountered in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. The [[Kong]]s must feed [[Scoff]] a certain number of [[banana]]s so he can lift Troff up to the [[Boss Key|key]] to a Boss Door. Troff then opens the door for the [[Kong Family|Kongs]]. After the Kongs defeat [[King K. Rool|King Krusha K. Rool]], both Scoff and Troff retreat to [[DK's Tree House]], where they party with the Kongs and their friends. It is not elaborated on what happens to the duo after the party, as ''Donkey Kong 64'' is their only appearance to date.

+'''Troff''' is a large pink [[pig]] encountered in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. The [[Kong]]s encounter him and his partner [[Scoff]] after entering a [[Troff 'n' Scoff Portal|portal]] that leads to [[Troff 'n' Scoff|the area]] where the door to each level's boss resides. The Kongs must feed [[Scoff]] a certain number of [[banana]]s so he can lift Troff up to the key to open the boss door. After the Kongs defeat [[King K. Rool|King Krusha K. Rool]], both Scoff and Troff retreat to [[DK's Tree House]], where they party with the Kongs and their friends.
+==Profiles==
+*'''Instruction booklet bio from [[Cranky Kong|Professor Cranky Kong]]''' (page 11): "''Troff’s a pig, Scoff’s a hippo, and both are big, slow and useless. They sit in their nice, cozy room and wait to be fed enough bananas to satisfy their alarming appetites. Once fed, they’re supposed to help you. But a novice player like you won’t be able to collect enough food, so I’d be wasting my precious breath if I told you what they did.''" (Troff n' Scoff)
+*'''[[Nintendo Power|Player's Guide]]''' (page 7): "''Troff the pig and Scoff the hippo guard the doors that lead to the bosses who hold the eight keys to [[K. Lumsy]]’s cage. Unfortunately, the doors are locked and Troff can’t reach the keys. Help him by feeding bananas to Scoff until he counterbalances Troff. You’ll have to feed Scoff more bananas as you progress, and you can combine all the bananas collected by all the Kongs to reach the total.''" (Troff 'n' Scoff)

+*Troff's appearance in-game bears piercings on his nipples; though his earlier artwork reflected that (including in the instruction booklet), it was subsequently removed in later promotional material. The same thing occurred to their counterpart, Scoff.
