'''Swindell''' is a [[Bandit]] that lives in the East side of [[Rogueport]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. [[Goombella]] has heard he's a thief but he's never been seen stealing. He spends time whispering to [[Arfur]], a [[Doogan]], about something unknown. Swindell's name is a pun on "swindle," a verb that means "to steal" or to "to cheat out of something." It could also be a pun on the Norwegian word "svindel" which means "scam."

Swindell seems to be a supporter of [[Ishnail]] and does not like the actions of the [[Pianta Syndicate]] led by [[Don Pianta]]. However, he admits that he has neither seen Ishnail, Don or the Don's successor, [[Frankie]]. At the end of the game, he decides that neither of them are as good as [[Mario]].
