“I can finally get inside my house again! Home, sweet home! Thank you!”

—Garf,Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Garf theCraw is a member ofIshnail'sRobbo Thieves and is a relative ofGus. At the beginning ofPaper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, two Craws that are likely Garf and Gus are beaten up by two ofDon Pianta's henchmen. After the first chapter, Garf puts up a trouble in theTrouble Center, asking for someone to find theHouse Key to his house. IfMario accepts the trouble and completes it, Garf will allow Mario to go into his house, but Garf will return to Ishnail's hideout soon after.

Profiles[edit]

Tattle: "That's Garf, part of the Robbo gang. I'm pretty sure he's related toGus. He looks pretty gnarly, but he's actually pretty cool. Don't judge folks on looks!"

Notes[edit]

Though Garf's Tattle only mentions that he is related to Gus, it is possible that the two are brothers. When the Craws are being assaulted by the Piantas, one of them yells, "Stay down, Bro!" The line in Japanese, 「アニキーっ! 」, could also imply that they are brothers. However, it is not confirmed that these two Craws are Gus and Garf, and both "Bro" and「アニキ」do not always refer to one's literal brother.
