Grubba: Difference between revisions

'''Grubba''' is a major [[Characters|character]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' who, in his younger years, was a champion wrestler and martial artist. Though initially impartial to fame and riches, after becoming rich and famous, he fell in love with the good life. After retiring as a fighter, he became the promoter of the [[Glitz Pit]] in [[Glitzville]]. When he introduced himself to [[Mario]], he claims to be past his prime, unable to fight in the ring anymore. [[Bandy Andy]] claims that Grubba is over sixty years old during the events of the [[Games|video game]]. While initially presented as an uninvolved third party to Mario's fight against the [[Secret Society of X-Nauts|X-Nauts]] for the [[Crystal Stars]], when Mario discovers his unethical use of the [[Gold Star]], Grubba becomes an antagonist, wishing to keep his secrets safe. Behind his benevolent, boisterous façade, he is dangerously self-centered, viewing situations in terms of benefits and dangers to himself and his lifestyle rather than the moral implications of his actions.
