[[Image:Koopley.jpg|thumb|right|'''Koopley''', a true survivor.]]
'''Koopley''' is [[Koops]]' father and a resident of [[Petalburg]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''.


'''Koopley''' is [[Koops|Koops']] father in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. After he came to [[Hooktail Castle]] to slay [[Hooktail]], Hooktail swallowed him whole. Koops thought he was dead and joined [[Mario]]'s team to avenge him. After Mario, [[Goombella]] and Koops defeat Hooktail, Koopley came out of Hooktail's stomach with the first [[Crystal Stars|Crystal Star]], the [[Diamond Star]]. Koopley survived 10 years in Hooktail's stomach by hiding in his shell.  
==History==
[[File:Koops and Koopley.png|thumb|left|Koops reunited with Koopley]]
Ten years before the events of ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', Koopley went to [[Hooktail Castle]] to slay the dragon, only to end up with [[Hooktail]] swallowing him whole. Believing his father to be dead, Koops joins [[Mario]]'s team to avenge him. After Mario, [[Goombella]] and Koops defeat Hooktail, Koopley emerges from her stomach with the first [[Crystal Stars|Crystal Star]], the [[Diamond Star]], which he gives to Mario in gratitude for saving him. Koopley had survived in Hooktail's belly for ten years by hiding in his [[Blue Shell|shell]].


It turns out that Koopley is actually a really nice father. It's possible that Koops is named after his father.
After returning to Petalburg, Koopley, alongside his son's girlfriend [[Koopie Koo]], wishes Koops a successful quest. Koopley later sends an [[Mailbox SP#Koopley: How's life?|e-mail]] to Mario, checking on Koops while surprised by a technology that can send messages. He is also mentioned in Koopie Koo's [[Mailbox SP#Koopie Koo: Miss you!|e-mail]], in which she is grossed out by Koopley's odor, presumably from being stuck in Hooktail's belly.


==Trivia==
===E-Mail===
*As he was in Hooktail's stomach for ten years, he is not very knowledgeable about new technology.
;How's life?
[[File:PMTTYD Koopley Mail.png|thumb|Attached image]]
<blockquote>
I'm just amazed...I had no idea a machine like this could be used to send messages! Technology! Wow!<br>
<br>
I'm doing great, drinking fresh springwater, picking wildflowers, polishing my shell...this town seemed so boring ten years ago, but I see the world differently now. I bet you'll like [[Petalburg]] more than you used to once you get back from YOUR adventure, [[Koops]]!<br>
<br>
So, where are you headed next? I want you to see the wide world, son; it'll
be good for you! But don't go TOO far past that front door! Aah ha ha ha!<br>
<br>
From, Koopley</blockquote>


===Tattle===
*"''That's Koops's dad, Koopley. He seems kind of out of it. Are all Koopas space cadets? Then again, Koops is really with it... Maybe that's 'cause his dad is like this... Anyway, Koopley does worry about Koops a lot, so I guess he's a good dad after all.''"
