- “Whatever you do, don't throw a Blue Berry into the well! ...Hey guy! By the way, do you even know what my name is? They call me Tolielip. I personally think it's kind of a rude name. I mean, I never lie! Never! ...Heh heh heh, ha ha ha!! Wah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!! Baaaaah ha ha ha ha!!”
- —Tolielip, Paper Mario
Tolielip is character found in the central hub of Flower Fields in Paper Mario. He is a Flower Spirit that resembles a daffodil, with squinted eyes and prominent buck teeth. When spoken to, he gives Mario opposite hints about his objectives. His name is a portmanteau of the phrase "to lie" and "tulip." The "lip" part of his name could also refer to his incessant talking. Goombario's tattle identifies "Tolielip" as a species instead of an individual.
Tattle[edit]
- "It's a Tolielip. He definitely knows a lot about Flower Fields. Unfortunately, he's a liar. You can figure out his riddles, can't you, Mario?"
