In the [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door#Prologue: A Rogue's Welcome|Prologue]], [[Beldam]] disguises herself as a merchant in [[Rogueport]] and convinces [[Princess Peach]], who has stopped in Rogueport with [[Toadsworth]] on her vacation, to open a box containing the [[Magical Map]].

[[Mario]]'s first encounter with the Three Shadows come in [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door#Chapter 2: The Great Boggly Tree|Chapter 2]], when they attempt to take the map, which has come into his possession, from him in [[Boggly Woods]].

Initially, Beldam loses the sketch the [[X-Nauts (organization)|X-Natus]] gave to them to identify Mario, which leads to Mario and his [[Party member|party]] walking by them without them realizing who he is. Beldam blames Vivian for the loss of the sketch, though she protests and explains it had always been in Beldam's possession. Beldam asserts that Vivian was too focus on the [[Necklace (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Necklace]] she found and that is why the sketch was lost. Mario remembers hearing this argument when [[Flurrie]] asks him to find the Necklace after she lost it on a stroll through the woods. Once Mario returns to reclaim the Necklace, the Three Shadows identify him as the one they're after and attack him. Before their battle, the Three Shadows formally introduce themselves, though Vivian calls the trio the "Three Shadow ''Sisters''" ("Shadow Beauties" in the original), much to Beldam's chagrin. After Mario and his party defeat the witches, they flee, with Vivian dropping the Necklace. They return to the X-Naut Fortress, where they explain to Grodus that they lost to Mario but have a new weapon that will ensure their victory on their next encounter. | ||
In [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door#Chapter 4: For Pigs the Bell Tolls|Chapter 4]], the Three Shadows plan to attack Mario and his party in [[Twilight Town]] using an explosive item called the [[Superbombomb]]. Unfortunately for them, the group loses the explosive and Beldam again blames Vivian for losing it despite it never being in her possession, and forces her to look for it. After Mario has his identity stolen by [[Doopliss]], he encounters a distraught Vivian, who fruitlessly searches for the Superbombomb. Mario finds it for Vivian, resulting in her joining his party in gratitude, though she is unaware of his true identity. This is especially helpful given the other party members have all abandoned Mario, thinking Doopliss is the true Mario and Mario himself is an imposter. Mario and Vivian head to the [[Creepy Steeple]] to confront Doopliss and reclaim Mario's identity; however, once Doopliss reveals Mario's true identity, Vivian abandons him, feeling betrayed after learning she teamed up with her enemy. After a brief self-reflection, Vivian decides to stay with Mario and rejoins the battle. The two defeat Doopliss, gaining the [[Ruby Star]] and winning back Mario's identity. With his party members back on his side, Mario explains Vivian's situation to the rest of his party, who are glad to welcome her. Following his defeat, Doopliss joins the Three Shadows to seek revenge on Mario for defeating him. | In [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door#Chapter 4: For Pigs the Bell Tolls|Chapter 4]], the Three Shadows plan to attack Mario and his party in [[Twilight Town]] using an explosive item called the [[Superbombomb]].

When Mario and his partners board the [[Excess Express]] in [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door#Chapter 6: 3 Days of Excess|Chapter 6]], Mario's partner notices a [[Threatening Note]] on the floor in their room. After reading it, they wonder if Beldam is the one behind the threat of a "sticky, yummy doom".

While Mario and his party venture through the [[Palace of Shadow]] in [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door#Chapter 8: The Thousand-Year Door|Chapter 8]], upon opening the secret path to the [[Shadow Queen]]'s lair, the Three Shadows ambush them again and fight them one last time. After Mario and company defeats them, they lay on the ground dazed. While all of Mario's other party members will comment "Let's leave these..." followed by some sort of insult ("doofuses", "louts", "idiots") upon speaking to them, Vivian will say "I'm sorry, Sis..." Once Grodus awakens the Shadow Queen from her eternal rest only to be attacked by her, Beldam takes full credit for awakening the queen. She reveals that she has been orchestrating the Shadow Queen's revival from the very start, and explains how Three Shadows manipulated Grodus into thinking he could control the queen. | While Mario and his party venture through the [[Palace of Shadow]] in [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door#Chapter 8: The Thousand-Year Door|Chapter 8]], upon opening the secret path to the [[Shadow Queen]]'s lair, the Three Shadows ambush them again and fight them one last time.
