Chap is an inhabitant of Flipside who appears in Super Paper Mario. In the PAL version of the game, this character is called Glim.

Chap can be found on the second floor of Flipside. He greatly enjoys peace, commonly ranting on Flipside's enjoyable prosperity. However, he eventually grows tired of peace, wishing for more out-of-the ordinary events to happen; ironically, every "unusual" event he thought of has already happened to Mario and the other heroes, and the events occasionally even happened in "peaceful" Flipside itself. By the end of the game, he returns to his typical lines about loving peace, claiming shortly afterward that he still does find peace "all you can really ask out of life", although it is implied that he is still bored of it. Chap is additionally stated by Tippi and Tiptron to have dreams of becoming an author, though all of his book ideas have apparently been done already.

His name might actually be a joke name coinciding with the other Chap in that almost everything thinks of has either already happened, or (in terms of literacy) been taken, and that even his name is not original. This Chap's counterpart in Flopside is the ever-lovesick Slim.
