'''Professor Kolorado''' is a bold, slightly foolish, mustachioed [[Koopa]] explorer and archaeologist in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. He is a former student of the famous [[Professor Frankly]]. Kolorado lives in [[Koopa Village]], but rarely is home, preferring to go out on quests for ancient artifacts, which angers [[Kolorado's Wife|his wife]]. He is also the idol of his neighbor [[Kooper]], who eventually becomes his assistant at the end of ''Paper Mario''. | '''Professor Kolorado''' is a bold, slightly foolish, mustachioed [[Koopa]] explorer and archaeologist in ''[[Paper Mario]]''.

He is also the idol of his neighbor [[Kooper]], who eventually becomes his assistant at the end of ''Paper Mario''. Kolorado is loosely based off of [[wikipedia:Indiana Jones|Indiana Jones]]. As they are both named after an American State (Kolorado is a homonym for Colorado), and they are both legendary archaeologists. They also wear similar outfits and go on quests for unique artifacts. He is also similar to [[Flint Cragley]] since they are both archaeologists based off of Indiana Jones that star in Chapter Five of their respective games. | ||

Kolorado seems to be a bit of a work-a-holic. He is obsessed with finding treasure, and his wife comments that he is rarely at home, always going on some expedition. Although there is no voice-acting in ''Paper Mario'', Kolorado's text seems to hint at a stereotypical "British" accent, as he often uses phrases such as "tally-ho", "old boy", "old chap", and "old bean". A British accent was also applied to [[Admiral Bobbery]] from ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. | Kolorado seems to be a bit of a work-a-holic.
