Grifty
Grifty is a mysterious minstrel that hangs out on a roof in east Rogueport in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, who resembles Moustafa from Paper Mario. Over the course of the game, you can pay him 5 coins to have him recite bits and pieces of the Legend of the Four Heroes. This tale helps to explain the roots of the 1000 year-old evil that destroyed the area currently known as Rogueport, as well as some other minor bits regarding other characters, like Cortez, Hooktail, and the Great Tree's origin. Garson and Carson of Super Paper Mario can be thought of as similar to him, as they, too, reveal parts of their game's plot that happened long before the setting of the game, although Garson and Carson have roles more similar to those of Wonky.
