Thepostmaster is a postal workerParatroopa who lives inToad Town and runs the town'sToad Town Post Office inPaper Mario. According toGoombario, the postmaster is extremely serious, stubborn and hardheaded.

InPaper Mario, the postmaster can be found behind a desk in the Post Office; ifMario talks to him, the postmaster will let Mario read variousletters sent to hispartners by various people and organizations they have met in their travels.

WhenShy Guys cause havoc in Toad Town, the postmaster has abag of mail stolen from him by a Shy Guy. If Mario finds this mailbag and the letters it contains, he can return it to the Postmaster and receive aStar Piece as a reward. As Mario talks to him while the mailbag is stolen, and as he says that the post office failed their duty as they do not let hardships stop them, he references theUnited States Postal Service creed.

When Mario returns to Toad Town after his adventures onLavalava Island, aToad in the town will mention the postmaster. The Toad will go on to recount that while he was eating lunch atClub 64 with him, the postmaster said he was worried aboutParakarry's slowness in delivering mail. However, as the postmaster said this, he was smiling, which the Toad took to mean that the postmaster was secretly proud of having found a successor.
