'''Tweesters''', | '''Tweesters''', also known as '''Whirlwinds'''<ref>Farkas, Bart G. ''Paper Mario'' Official Strategy Guide. Page 64. "'''''Warning''' Avoid the Whirlwinds! Although you don’t fight them, they’ll lift you up and plop you somewhere in the grid and you’ll have no idea where you are.''"</ref>, are [[tornado]]-like enemies found in the [[Mario (franchise)|''Mario'' franchise]] that try to touch the player, sending them into the air in an attempt to redirect their movements and hinder their progression. In all of the games, they cannot harm the player directly and can only attempt to force them into a more dangerous situation. They are usually found in desert levels. | ||
They are some of the few original ''Paper Mario'' series characters to reappear in other ''Mario'' games, along with [[Whacka]]s, [[Koopatrol]]s, the [[Star Spirits]], and the [[Goomboss|Goomba King]]. | |||

Tweesters debut in ''[[Paper Mario]]'', where they forcefully blow Mario one screen to the north and one screen to the east in [[Dry Dry Desert (Paper Mario)|Dry Dry Desert]] if he comes into contact with them. It is typically a poor choice to touch them, as the player can easily get lost within the vast sands. However, one particular Tweester (in an area with blue cacti) can be used to throw Mario next to the [[Spin Attack (badge)|Spin Attack]] badge on top of a high rock which cannot be reached by any other means. | |||
