History[edit]
Paper Mario[edit]
InPaper Mario, the Star Spirits are being held captive by theKoopa Corps afterBowser andKammy Koopa stole their preciousStar Rod and turned them into playing cards, in retaliation for their ignoring Bowser's selfish wishes.
AfterMario and his new friends rescue all of them, they give him a special power calledStar Beam, which is used to neutralize the effects of the Star Rod, and aship that they can use to travel toBowser's Castle. During the final battle with Bowser, due to the effects of Bowser'sPower Platform, their Star Beam does not work against him, triggering a side battle withPrincess Peach andTwink against Kammy Koopa. After Peach and Twink have defeated Kammy, the Star Beam is upgraded toPeach Beam, giving Mario a second chance at a victory against Bowser and to recover the Star Rod.
The following list of Star Spirits are as follows:
