'''King Grambi''' (called "'''Grams'''" by [[Queen Jaydes]]) is a character from ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', where he is introduced as the king of [[the Overthere]] and the husband of Queen Jaydes. He is also [[Luvbi]]'s father and although he appears grumpy over times, he still cares a lot for his daughter. His name is a portmanteau of "Grandfather" and "Nimbi".

When [[Mario]] escorts Luvbi to the Overthere from [[the Underwhere]], the Overthere is found under siege by [[Skellobit]]s, with a majority of the [[Nimbi]]s (the inhabitants of the Overthere) and Grambi being trapped in ice. Grambi was confronted by [[Bonechill]] when Mario and co. arrived at his shrine.

After the [[player]] completes the game and returns everything back to normal, the player can go back to King Grambi's temple in the Overthere, where they can find him standing there with [[Queen Jaydes]] and [[Luvbi]]. It is unknown how Luvbi returned; it is believed that it happened when everything was returned to normal.
Just as Jaydes is based on the ancient Greek lord of the underworld, Grambi may be based on [[wikipedia:Zeus|Zeus]], the god of the sky and ruler of Mount Olympus in Greek mythology. Additionally, as the Overthere also borrows from Christian theism, certain aspects of Grambi are shared with God, such as his position as leader of the [[Nimbi]]s (angels) and his conflict with [[Bonechill]] (whose story greatly resembles that of Lucifer), however Grambi is not credited with creating the world or life, and is not omniscient or omnipotent.

When [[Mario]] escorts Luvbi to the Overthere from the Underwhere, the Overthere is found under siege by [[Skellobit]]s, with a majority of the Nimbis (the inhabitants of the Overthere) and Grambi being trapped in ice. Grambi was confronted by Bonechill when Mario and co. arrived at his shrine, and they have to defeat the villain. It is then revealed that Luvbi was in fact the eighth and final [[Pure heart]], which was entrusted to Grambi and Jaydes, and she returns to her true form after a tearful goodbye with her parents.

==Trivia==
*King Grambi is probably in resemblance to the mythological Greek god king Zeus, as [[Queen Jaydes]] resembles the underworld god of Greek mythology, Hades.
