“I'm the mayor of this poor town. Some call me Dour.”
—Mayor Dour, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Mayor Dour is a Twilighter and the mayor of Twilight Town in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. The word "dour" is a synonym for "gloomy", which is an appropriate description of Mayor Dour and his town. In keeping with the ragdoll-esque appearance of the Twilight Towners, patches of fluff and loose threads can be seen on his head.

History

Mayor Dour helps Mario during his visit to Twilight Town by explaining the pig problem. Mario needs his permission to pass the gate into the Twilight Trail to Creepy Steeple. Before Mario can request permission, however, Dour turns into a pig, but the guard blocking the Twilight Trail additionally turns into a pig, thus granting Mario access to Creepy Steeple.

After Mario supposedly defeats Doopliss, who was causing the pig curse by use of a bell in the Creepy Steeple, the citizens are turned back into normal, including Dour. A little later, Dour posts a trouble at the Trouble Center in Rogueport (available after Chapter 4), in which he is asking for someone to deliver a Silver Club newsletter routing slip for him. If Mario takes on the trouble, he needs to visit Dour to receive the Routing Slip from him. The Routing Slip then needs to be delivered to the Puni elder inside the Great Tree in Boggly Woods, who then asks Mario to deliver the slip to Mayor Kroop in Petalburg. Kroop then asks Mario to deliver the slip to Dour, and when Mario does so, Dour rewards him with thirty coins.

Tattle

  • "That's the Twilight Town mayor. He doesn't seem too reliable, though. I guess he's been through a lot, though, so maybe I oughta cut him some slack."
As a pig
  • "Even the mayor got turned into a pig! At this rate, they'll all be pigs soon. And then... maybe even us... NO WAY!"
