'''Rogueport Sewers''' is a | [[File:PMTTYD Rogueport Sewers Entrance.png|thumb|left|Mario and Goombella approaching the pipe to the sewers outside Professor Frankly's house.]] | ||
'''Rogueport Sewers''' is a network of rooms located underneath [[Rogueport]], which appears in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. The sewers are actually the remnants of Rogueport's ancient civilization that was destroyed by a cataclysm 1,000 years ago. They contain a large number of [[Warp Pipe]]s leading to other areas, as well as various enemies and friendly characters alike. The friendly characters are mostly gathered in and around the ruins of the 1,000 year old town itself, which has been partially rebuilt by people who can't be seen in Rogueport proper, and includes a [[Deepdown Depot|shop]] and a [[Herb T.'s place|tavern]]. | |||
Other characters found in the sewers include the fortune teller [[Merluvlee]], the badge trader [[Dazzle]], and the information trader [[Wonky]], among others. The sewers are also notable for containing [[the Thousand-Year Door]], which is said to hide a fantastic treasure, and the entrance to the [[Pit of 100 Trials (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Pit of 100 Trials]], a 100-floor dungeon containing powerful enemies and valuable items. | |||
The main way of getting into the sewers is a pipe in front of [[Professor Frankly]]'s house. Another way in is West [[Rogueport]]'s sewer grate. Special blue pipes leading to [[Petalburg]], [[the Great Tree]], [[Keelhaul Key]] and [[Poshley Heights]] can be found in the sewers. In this way, Rogueport Sewers serves a similar role to [[Toad Town Tunnels]] from ''[[Paper Mario]]'', being a sewer system under the town that serves as the main hub of the game, containing pipes that allow fast access to various locations. | |||
When Mario reaches the bottom floor of the sewers for the first time, he has to learn | Entrances leading to particular regions include a stone warp pipe to [[Petal Meadows]], a monochrome wooden pipe to [[Boggly Woods]] and a cracked orange pipe to Twilight Town, and a blue warp pipe is used to gain access to [[Fahr Outpost]]. The [[teleporter (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|teleporter]] is also found in Rogueport Sewers and is used to reach the [[X-Naut Fortress]] and through that, the [[moon]] after Mario is fired out of the [[big bomb cannon]], as it is impossible to be fired again. After completing Chapter 7, this teleporter cannot be used until after completing the game. | ||
When Mario reaches the bottom floor of the sewers for the first time, he has to learn [[Paper Mode]] to reach the door from the first [[Black Chest Demon]] inside a [[black chest]]. After Mario reaches the Thousand-Year Door, he has to stand on the pedestal and hold up the map. The map shows him the location of one of the Crystal Stars. This process is repeated after every Crystal Star Mario gathers. | |||

Rogueport Sewers is first entered through a pipe located in Rogueport's east side, outside of [[Merlon]] and [[Professor Frankly]]'s houses, which is initially blocked by a rotten fence that Frankly removes soon after Mario and [[Goombella]] meet with him. The pipe leads down to a long room. Next to the pipe, there is a [[Save Block]]. To the west, an archway leads to the ruins of the 1,000 year old town. There is also a cracked wall here which can be destroyed by [[Admiral Bobbery]]'s [[Bomb (Paper Mario series)|Bomb]] ability, uncovering a pipe that leads to [[Chet Rippo]]'s house in the room's background. To the east of the pipe that leads to the surface, there is another pipe behind a rusted metal fence, leading down to the eastern corridor. This pipe can be accessed by moving between the fence's bars using [[Paper Mode]], or otherwise by riding a moving platform that moves between the pipe and a ledge further to the east. This platform passes over a lowered area between two staircases; Mario, Goombella, and Professor Frankly are attacked by a [[Goomba]], [[Paragoomba]], and [[Spiky Goomba]] here on their first visit, who they must defeat to access the east end of the room, including the moving platform. | Rogueport Sewers is first entered through a pipe located in Rogueport's east side, outside of [[Merlon]] and [[Professor Frankly]]'s houses, which is initially blocked by a rotten fence that Frankly removes soon after Mario and [[Goombella]] meet with him.

Further to the east, the remains of a wall partially block the ledge that leads to the aforementioned moving platform. Past this, there is a pipe behind a similar metal fence to the one that blocks access to the pipe leading to the eastern corridor; this one can only be accessed using Paper Mode and leads to [[Merlee]]'s house in the background.

South of the fence is a Plane Panel which Mario can activate once he can use Plane Mode to cross an ensuing gap; crossing the gap allows Mario to access an archway that leads to the Petal Meadows pipe room, while the gap itself contains a staircase leading back to the Plane Panel as well as a Spiky Goomba that first appears after Mario first visits the Thousand-Year Door; this Spiky Goomba is notable for remaining as such for the entire game, unlike most other enemies in the sewers which are replaced with [[Koopatrols]], [[Hammer Bro|Hammer Bros.]], and [[Magikoopa]]s after completing Chapter 5. Above the archway to the Petal Meadows pipe room, there is a high ledge with a chest containing a [[Defend Plus P]] badge and a cracked wall, which can be blown open from the other side in the Petal Meadows pipe room using Bobbery to access the chest. | ||

Said by Goombella to be the ruins of the original town that modern Rogueport was built over, this is one of the largest rooms in Rogueport Sewers. It is separated into two parts separated by a fallen pillar which Mario initially cannot circumvent. Mario first gains the ability to cross under it once he can use [[Tube Mode]], but the pillar can be destroyed entirely using Bobbery's ability. The eastern part is accessible through an archway in the eastern entrance room, and houses [[Dazzle]] and [[Merluvlee]], both of whom become accessible once Mario visits the Thousand-Year Door for the first time. Dazzle is outside next to a fallen pillar that hides a [[Star Piece]] behind it, and he trades badges in exchange for the Star Pieces that Mario collects. Merluvlee lives inside a large, ruined building, and can tell Mario's fortune for a small price, which can alternatively lead him to Star Pieces or [[Shine Sprite]]s or instruct him on how to progress in the story. | Said by Goombella to be the ruins of the original town that modern Rogueport was built over, this is one of the largest rooms in Rogueport Sewers.

The western part is much larger and is accessible through an archway in the western entrance room. This part features the room's centerpiece, a ruined fountain, as well as a number of ordinary residents, including a [[Little Mouser|Squeek]], a [[Bandit]], and a Goomba. Goombella's [[Tattle]] dialogue for the area suggests that most of the residents are individuals who can't show their faces in Rogueport proper.

In-between the pillar and the ruined fountain, there is a building locked from the inside, which can be entered and unlocked using the teleporter inside the [[X-Naut Fortress]]. The building's interior is futuristic and contains the teleporter connecting back to the X-Naut Fortress. Mario uses the teleporter to return here after Chapter 7, and it can also be used before and after that point to travel between Rogueport Sewers and the X-Naut Fortress. South of the ruined fountain, a thin layer of water covers the floor. There is a chest containing a [[Soft Stomp]] badge in the lower left corner of the wet area. North of the ruined fountain, a ledge that repeatedly raises and lowers leads to [[Deepdown Depot]], a shop that sells some of the game's most valuable items, and [[Herb T.'s place]], a bar run by the [[Toad (species)|Toad]] [[Herb T.]]. [[Wonky]], who provides Mario with various obscure information on game mechanics, secrets, and lore, takes up residence in Herb T.'s place as well. | ||
In-between Deepdown Depot and Herb T.'s place, there is a small alley where Mario can use the [[Spring Jump]] to jump up to a drippy water pipe high up in the air, which he can shimmy across to get on top of Deepdown Depot. From here, he can drop down onto Merluvlee's house, and from there to the pillar next to which Dazzle stands, which has a [[Shine Block]] on top that can be reached with another Spring Jump. | In-between Deepdown Depot and Herb T.'s place, there is a small alley where Mario can use the [[Spring Jump]] to jump up to a drippy water pipe high up in the air, which he can shimmy across to get on top of Deepdown Depot.

This room is entered through an archway in the eastern entrance room. It is a long room with a small dry area on the west end followed by a large pool of water. A Boat Panel lies on the southeast end of the dry area; once Mario can use [[Boat Mode]] he can cross the pool of water to reach another Boat Panel on the far eastern end of the pool of water, which connects to a ledge with a Shine Sprite. There is also a drippy water pipe in the back of the dry area which Mario can grab onto using the Spring Jump; shimmying to the west allows Mario to access a high ledge from which Bobbery can blow up the cracked wall in the eastern entrance room from the opposite side (though it is unmarked on this side), allowing him to reach the chest there; shimmying to the east instead eventually leads to a pipe on a ledge far across the water that leads to an abandoned house in the background. | This room is entered through an archway in the eastern entrance room.

=== | ===Sublevel 2, eastern corridor=== | ||
This room is accessed through one of the pipes located in the eastern entrance room. It is a small corridor with two levels and a canal running along the southern wall. When Mario first visits it, it contains a Goomba, a Paragoomba, and Spiky Goomba. The two levels are separated by a flight of stairs as well as a rusted metal fence, which Mario can use Paper Mode to pass through. The upper level only contains a pipe leading up to the eastern entrance room, while the lower level contains two [[? Block]]s containing a [[Mushroom]] and [[Fire Flower]], respectively, a small archway to the west that leads to the eastern blue pipe room, an alcove initially blocked by two small [[yellow block]]s with a pipe leading to the lower corridor, and another alcove blocked by rusted metal bars that are passable using Paper Mode containing an entrance leading to the spike room. There is also a third, empty alcove between the other two, also covered by metal bars. | This room is accessed through one of the pipes located in the eastern entrance room.

This room contains spikes in a zigzag pattern that raise and lower every three seconds, in a setup that resembles one in [[Tubba Blubba's Castle]] in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. Mario can cross the spikes using [[Vivian]]'s [[Veil]] ability, moving across the room while the spikes are down and hiding in the shadows when they rise up, protecting Mario and Vivian from the spikes. At the end of the path, there is a chest containing the [[Spike Shield]] badge. | This room contains spikes in a zigzag pattern that raise and lower every three seconds, in a setup that resembles one in [[Tubba Blubba's Castle]] in ''[[Paper Mario]]''.

This room can be accessed from a pipe in the eastern corridor. Mario arrives from that pipe in a large, open area which is initially inhabited by a few [[Spinia]]s and a hidden block with a [[Pretty Lucky]] badge. To the left is a large yellow block which can be destroyed using the Super Hammer, revealing a blue [[trampoline]] that allows for quick access to a high ledge containing the entrance to the Thousand-Year Door room. A Star Piece is also located behind the yellow block, accessible though not visible before the block is destroyed. On the north wall, metal bars passable using Paper Mode block an alcove containing the entrance to the Boggly Woods pipe room. The first time that Mario passes by here, as well as after presenting the [[Diamond Star]] in front of the Thousand-Year Door, [[Punio]] is seen waiting outside a [[Puni]]-sized hole next to this entrance, though he quickly flees through the hole after noticing Mario. | This room can be accessed from a pipe in the eastern corridor.

Further to the east, there is a high ledge that initially appears sheer. After pressing an [[! Switch]], the wall "peels" off to reveal a staircase. The ledge still contains a discolored portion of its wall, which can be removed using [[Flurrie]]'s [[Gale Force]] ability. This uncovers a chest with a [[Happy Heart P]] badge. At the top of the staircase, the ledge houses a Plane Panel which Mario can use to cross over the room and reach the entrance to the Thousand-Year Door room on the west end as well as an entrance leading to the black chest room. Mario can also drop down from the northwest end of the high ledge to a lower ledge that houses a chest containing a [[Black Key]]. | Further to the east, there is a high ledge that initially appears sheer.

If accessed before presenting the Diamond Star in front of the Thousand-Year Door, this room appears small and featureless aside from a staircase and an inaccessible ledge with a [[Damage Dodge]] badge. After presenting the Diamond Star, Punio the Puni appears here and becomes acquainted with Mario. He then uncovers the secret entrance to [[Boggly Woods]] by pressing a button inside a Puni-sized hole on the southeast end of the room that is inaccessible to Mario, causing parts of the back wall at the top of the staircase to flip around and reveal a corridor.

One of the largest rooms in Rogueport Sewers, this room contains the Thousand-Year Door. It features a unique music track different from that heard throughout the rest of the sewers. The Thousand-Year Door is located on the northern wall. A pedestal that Mario can activate with the [[Magical Map]] and [[Crystal Stars]] is located in front of the door.

Mario can cross these platforms to access an archway that leads to the ruins of the 1,000 year old town. | ||

If Mario instead falls down from the high ledges he arrives in this room on, he reaches the room's floor, which initially contains several [[Spania]]s. On the western end of the floor, a red X mark painted on the floor hints that Mario can use the Spring Jump to grab a pipe above him; shimmying to the west along it allows Mario to reach the lower floor of the room with the pipe to Fahr Outpost, containing a chest with a [[Flower Saver P]] badge. The east side of the main room's floor contains a Save Block and a pipe that leads back up to Rogueport's west side, as well as a pipe that leads down to the western corridor. | If Mario instead falls down from the high ledges he arrives in this room on, he reaches the room's floor, which initially contains several [[Spania]]s.

===Twilight Town pipe room=== | ====Twilight Town pipe room==== | ||
This is a very small room with a unique orange cracked pipe leading to [[Twilight Town]] and a sign labeling it as such. This pipe rejects Mario until he has his name written on his clothing by [[Darkly]] after presenting the [[Gold Star]] in front of the Thousand-Year Door and trying the pipe at least once. | This is a very small room with a unique orange cracked pipe leading to [[Twilight Town]] and a sign labeling it as such.

=== | ===Sublevel 2, western corridor=== | ||
This room largely mirrors the eastern corridor, being a two-story winding corridor separated by a flight of stairs and a metal fence that Mario can pass through using Paper Mode, as well as a canal along the southern wall. The upper level contains a pipe leading up to the floor of the western entrance room and a Spania (initially, before the enemies are replaced after Chapter 5); the lower level contains two more Spanias as well as two ? Blocks containing a [[Slow Shroom]] and a [[Gradual Syrup]], respectively. Past these blocks on the southeast end of the corridor is an entrance that leads to the western blue pipe room. Three alcoves are located on the north wall of the lower level; the further east two are blocked by metal bars and are empty, while the furthest west one is blocked by a discolored wall that can be removed by Flurrie's Gale Force. This uncovers a pipe that provides a one-way entrance to the Pit of 100 Trials entrance room. By walking west from this pipe, Mario crosses through a small passageway that leads to a Boat Panel. By using Boat Mode here, Mario can sail along the canal on the southern end of the room to the east, passing through the western and eastern blue pipe rooms and the eastern corridor, eventually reaching the Spunia room. | This room largely mirrors the eastern corridor, being a two-story winding corridor separated by a flight of stairs and a metal fence that Mario can pass through using Paper Mode, as well as a canal along the southern wall.

=== | ===Sublevel 2, western blue pipe room=== | ||
This room largely mirrors the eastern blue pipe room, being a room with a canal along the southern wall, two super switches inaccessible from the ground, and a large stone block that can be destroyed with the Ultra Hammer that blocks passage through the room (which connects the western corridor and the eastern blue pipe room via entrances on the west and east walls, respectively) as well as a moving ledge that allows access to the room's high ledges in the northwestern and northeastern corners. Pressing the super switches by jumping down from these ledges activates pipes on the northwestern and northeastern ledges that lead to [[Poshley Heights]] and [[Keelhaul Key]], respectively. The northwestern ledge also houses a chest containing an [[HP Plus (badge)|HP Plus]] badge. | This room largely mirrors the eastern blue pipe room, being a room with a canal along the southern wall, two super switches inaccessible from the ground, and a large stone block that can be destroyed with the Ultra Hammer that blocks passage through the room (which connects the western corridor and the eastern blue pipe room via entrances on the west and east walls, respectively) as well as a moving ledge that allows access to the room's high ledges in the northwestern and northeastern corners.

This room can only be accessed by using Boat Mode to ride along the canals along the southern wall of several rooms starting from the western corridor. The room contains a Boat Panel that Mario can use to exit Boat Mode and beyond this is somewhat open, but contains five Spanias that tend to swarm Mario as soon as he exits Boat Mode (although they cannot actually move onto the Boat Panel). These Spanias remain as such even after most of the enemies in Rogueport Sewers are replaced after Chapter 5. Three Shine Blocks are located in plain view in this room; two can be broken with normal jumps while the third is higher in the air and requires a Spring Jump. In the northwestern corner, a series of ledges leads up to a stationary [[Spunia]], the only one of its kind that can be battled outside the Pit of 100 Trials. Beyond it, there is a moving platform that can only be reached using Yoshi's Flutter Jump, and with another Flutter Jump from the platform Mario can access a [[Defend Plus]] badge in the northeastern corner. | This room can only be accessed by using Boat Mode to ride along the canals along the southern wall of several rooms starting from the western corridor.
