Editing Dry Dry Outpost

}}

There is a [[Little Mouser's Shop|shop]] and a [[Toad House]] in the outpost. [[Merlee]] also lives here and can, for a fee, cast a spell on Mario which will occasionally give him several advantages in battles. Later in the game, Mario can optionally go back here to complete several sidequests such as [[List of letters in Paper Mario#Normal Letters|letter delivery]], [[Koopa Koot]]'s favors, and [[Master Poet]]'s favor. There is a shortcut warp pipe in the [[Toad Town Tunnels]], which provides a faster way to go to Dry Dry Outpost. The in-game map description reads, "''It's a small desert town that has many inhabitants for its size. You'll find a Toad House and a shop here.''"

|

:''Moustafa is the leader of this entire town, so... You'd better keep it in mind.''

:''...Although you probably won't ever see him...''"

:''Please enjoy yourself during your stay at Dry Dry Outpost.''"

|

:''He belongs to some kind of shady organization. The organization rules Dry Dry Outpost.''

:''So mysterious and dangerous... I can feel my skin crawling! Mario, isn't this exciting?''"

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:PM_Dryite_Green.png]]<br>A Dryite found on the west side of the outpost.

|

:''Where's the man? No one knows!♪ He stays hidden from his foes♪''"

* "''Dry Dry Desert is a desert, very dry♪ Winds of change blow sand in your eyes♪

:''...Oh yeeeeah. That's right! Don't I rock?''"

:''I made a wish to the Stars that I'd be inspired to write a ripping tune but so far, zilch. Nothing.''"

|

:''The wind out here in the desert is full of stinging sand, so he protects himself by wrapping his face in a cloth.''

:''Since their faces are covered, it's tough to tell them apart. I'm pretty sure they're all adults, though.''"

:''You look pretty strong, so... Huh? You haven't earned any Cards?''"

|

:''He earned himself a Degree at the Toad Town Dojo.''"

|-

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:PM_Dryite_Orange.png]]<br>A Dryite found on the west side of the outpost.

|

:''He's always right, so his fortune-telling is famous.''

:''If you hit trouble in the middle of your adventure, it'd be a good idea to see him.''"

:''If you move 3 south and 2 west from there, you'll find something special hidden.''

:''I'm not sure how to find it exactly, however. You should go there, huh? Yeah!''

:''Hey! Wanna hear something else? I know lots of other stuff! Useful stuff! Hey!''"

:''If you get caught in a desert whirlwind, it'll blow you away and you'll get lost.

:''Bandits are out there, too! They appear all of a sudden running really fast, and they steal people's coins!''

:''There are many tales. You'd better pay attention to them, too, because the desert is an unforgiving place.''

:''Hey! Wanna hear more?''"

:''If you go south just after you leave town, you'll find an oasis. It's amazing... A paradise!''

:''I go there sometimes. If you want to take a rest, it's the best place to go.''

:''Wanna hear something else? You'll be sorry if you don't! I know lots of stuff! ''"

:''The rumor is that if you jump in the center of the triangle, you'll find something good.''

:''Only... I don't know where the three trees are... I mean, the desert is huge! I can't know everything...''

:''Hey! You wanna hear something else or what? I'm loaded with tons and tons of useful information!''"

|

:''It's hard to tell them apart since we can see only their eyes.''"

|

:''Dry Dry Ruins? ...Nope, never heard of it. It sounds like a local fairy tale or something.''"

:''Hey, you travelers! Am I right or am I right?''"

|

:''I wonder why? I'm boiling! And they're all wrapped up in clothes! What gives?''

:''Maybe it's because their clothes are wrapped loosely. I could use some threads like that.''"

:''I don't see any reason for him to be so timid.''"

|-

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:PM_Dryite_Green.png]]<br>A Dryite found on the east side of the outpost.

|

:''One dark day, he was betrayed by his subjects. In the uprising that followed, Dry Dry Kingdom was ruined.''

:''King Mousta escaped and vowed vengeance on his enemies. He gathered those faithful to him and defeated his betrayers.''

:''King Mousta's supporters were the original robbers who built Dry Dry Outpost.''"

|

:''The legend surrounding this town is very mysterious.''

:''I wish my hometown had such a cool legend! Then I could act mysterious.''"

|

:''You know what? Even if he digs up the entire desert, he won't find them.''"

|

:''It's hard to tell whether he's old or young because of that cloth that's wrapped around his face.''

:''What do you think? Young or old? I'm betting young...''"

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:PM_Dryite_Green.png]]<br>A Dryite found on the east side of the outpost.

:''The king hid the entrance to the ruins of his kingdom, and the robber boss guarded them.''

:''Legend has it that even now, the descendant of that boss hides in this town and keeps the ruins safe from prying eyes.''"

|

:''This guy looks to be pretty easygoing. Who can be easygoing in this heat? I'm cooking!''"

|

:''If this woman casts a spell on you, it might help you during battle.''

:''For instance, your attack power might get stronger or you might get more coins for winning.''

:''The spell can be beneficial, but it's also unpredictable.''"

|

:''Ah, a rival for her affections!''

:''Just joking. He's obviously fond of Merlee.''

:''Maybe he just doesn't have anywhere better to go. He's always just sitting here.''

:''There's no reason to move... His beloved is here.''"
