History[edit]

WhenMario andLuigi arrive onBulbfish Island, they find Burnadette and Chilliam flirting in the middle of it.Leyden's assistant frames them for having stolen the island's Bulbfish eggs and has them falsely arrested for the crime. To pass the time in prison, they pretend to be in a luxurious hotel together, with Burnadette being a rich customer and Chilliam a receptionist. Eventually, they are freed by Mario and Luigi, who catch Leyden's assistant as being the true thief. Once the brothers activate thelighthouse on Bulbfish Island, Burnadette and Chilliam arrive onShipshape Island for the first time. There, they ask Mario and Luigi to find and linkHeatfreeze Island, the place where the couple met. After they do so, theExtension Corps infects Chilliam withGlohm, causing him to reject Burnadette, leaving her in tears. Only afterDr. Vulko is summoned from Burnadette's homeland of Skorcheen is the prince able to be cured. Chilliam apologizes for his behavior under the Glohm's influence, and the two immediately decide they want to marry. They have a big wedding on Heatfreeze Island, which helps bring their normally contentious people together.

Later, Burnadette becomes worried that her father is lonely, initiating a sidequest where Mario and Luigi check up on him. Upon visitingBurnadette's dad, he reveals that she used to complain about his flatulence and is impressed at how much she has grown if she is so worried about him. He reassures them that he is fine, much to Burnadette's relief.

When Heatfreeze Island is disconnected from Shipshape Island byBowser's attack, Burnadette attempts to defend Boilin Village fromBowser's Minions while Chilliam defends Freezin Village. If Mario and Luigi revisit Heatfreeze Island beforeTwistee Island, they help Burnadette drive off Bowser's Minions. However, if Heatfreeze Island is revisited second, Burnadette and Chilliam are nowhere to be found and both villages are overrun with Bowser's Minions.

OnceReclusa awakens, Burnadette and Chilliam manage to escape underground on Heatfreeze Island. Their romance is one of the sevenBonds Mario and Luigi need to collect withConnie'sBonding Can in order to break through theSoli-Tree's barrier. After the Bonding Can is filled, she, along with the other characters the brothers collect Bonds from, cheer them on as they prepare to storm Reclusa's base. During the credits, Burnadette and Chilliam are seen hugging as they jump on aBouncy Bloom onFlorall Island.
