In the game ''[[Paper Mario]]'', she is depicted as [[Merluvlee]]'s twin sister and therefore also a sibling of [[Merlow]] (though the latter is actually never mentioned). She resides in a hidden alley in [[Dry Dry Outpost]] and uses cards to power Mario up. Merlee offers three payment plans, and the length of time for which Merlee's spells last is dependent upon which plan Mario picks (e.g. the most expensive plan lasts the longest). Merlee's spells take effect randomly during or after battles, and the effects they bestow upon Mario are also random. When activated, a spell will either increase the amount of coins Mario receives after a battle, double his [[Star Points]], increase his attack power, or decrease the damage he takes from enemies. Each of these effects lasts only as long as a given battle. After a period of time, Merlee's spells wear off, forcing Mario to pay Merlee if he wants their effects again.

 

 

 

 

[[Merlee's Mansion]] is a major level in Chapter Two. [[Mimi]] also makes an appearance here, initially posing as Merlee's maid in her standard form, then eventually Merlee herself – in three separate occasions, in fact. The first is when she attempts to trick Mario into thinking he finally found Merlee, but an apparition of the real Merlee appears, exposing her as a fake. She impersonates Merlee again once the real Merlee is found, causing a confusion that is only settled with [["That's My Merlee!" Show|a game show]] hosted by [[The InterNed]]. During the subsequent battle with Mimi, Merlee cheers from outside the bathroom, healing Mario and his party. After Mimi is defeated, Merlee gives Mario and his party the third [[Pure Heart]]. Much later in the game, Mimi disguises herself as Merlee once more in [[Castle Bleck]], asking Mario and friends what [[enemies|monsters]] they fear the most.

This Merlee is Merluvlee's rival, and has been ever since they were classmates. After Chapter 2, Merlee works as a fortune teller in [[Flopside]].  She begins a trading sequence by requesting that Mario bring her a [[Crystal Ball]] from Merluvlee.  Merlee also apparently once helped Merluvlee greatly sometime before the events of ''Super Paper Mario'', as Merluvlee tells Mario and friends to tell Merlee "Now we're even" as they give her the Crystal Ball. In the end, Merlee gives Mario a [[key]] that unlocks the building holding [[Piccolo]].

Merlee's charms work differently in this game than the previous games. For her cheapest spell, she'll make Mario get a helpful item every time he kills 25 enemies for 10 times. For the medium priced, she'll give Mario a helpful item every time he kills 20 enemies for 15 times. And for the most expensive, she'll give Mario a helpful item every time he kills 15 enemies for 25 times. She is very useful for the Pit of 100 trials. She will, however, allow the player to receive all levels of charms for free if Mario brought her the Crystal Ball from Merluvlee.
