- —Koopley, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
Koopley is Koops' father and a resident of Petalburg. 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 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 shell.
After returning to Petalburg, Koopley, alongside his son's girlfriend Koopie Koo, wishes Koops a successful quest. Koopley later sends an e-mail to Mario, checking on Koops while surprised that a technology can send messages. He is also mentioned in Koopie Koo's e-mail, in which she is grossed out by Koopley's odor, presumably from being stuck in Hooktail's belly.
Tattle information
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.
Trivia
