The '''Dark Star''' is the overarching antagonist in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and its remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]''. It is a sentient artifact of incredible dark power that [[Fawful]] seeks out to aid in his quest for global domination, with the second half of the game focusing on [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], and [[Bowser]] each trying to stop both him and the evil artifact. The Dark Star first appears as a medium-sized violet orb, with a red-eyed black star similar to a [[Ztar]] on the front. It is not capable of speech in its initial form, but gains the ability to do so upon forming [[Dark Bowser]].

As a boss, the Dark Star gives the most [[Experience Point|experience points]] of any enemy in the game when defeated (however, the [[Badge#Bonus Badge|Bonus Badge]] does not grant any additional points). A more powerful variant, [[Dark Star X]], can be fought in [[The Gauntlet]] after Mario and Luigi first defeat the Dark Star.
