My name is Phoebe and I live underground. I hate my mother and my father and my little brother Antonio. I have only one friend called Anastaciana. She is a rag doll. I have no nose and no teeth. My mother ripped them out with pliers and my dad beated my nose over and over again until it fell off. Antonio also has no teeth because I borrowed my mom's pliers and ripped them out. I have horrid white eyes and it looks like I'm a cartoon. I taught myself how to read and write because my mother never sent me to school. I never done anything bad. Only once and my punishment was having my teeth ripped out and my nose beaten. The thing I did that was bad was throwing my brother's teddy across the room. I was banned from his room and my room has been lockde ever since. I am literally as thin as a stick and I have no nails. I only have 30 millilitres of water per day and I have one long-lasting 24 hour meal gum per day. My mum puts the food and drink through a hatch at the top of the door. My bed is two coats stitched together as a mattress, a book with a cotton cloth sewed around it as a pillow and 2 pashminas as a blanket. Please help me. I have made a tunnel. The only thing I don't know is where I am. I can't study any more. It gave me square eyes. So I didn't study places and such. I scream every night. This is true.

Ackpows are nemes-wearing servants working for Mimi in Super Paper Mario. They are featured in Chapter 2-3 inside Merlee's Mansion. Ackpows' roles are to make sure all of the other servants are working and pay them with Rubees after they are done. Also inside the mansion, Mario and Princess Peach can find a ? Block containing a Mushroom that requires a payment to the nearby Ackpow upon use.

According to Tippi, they act like they are all important, but in reality, they are in debt to Mimi just like every other servant. This is very similar to the system of work the Egyptians used. Their style of dress also seems to reference the Egyptians as well. After Mimi is defeated, the Ackpows are released from servitude. The ? Block that one guards can also be used infinitely without payment at this point, but will no longer add points to the score.
