'''Twila''' is a character in ''[[Mario Party 6]]''. She is a [[moon]], hence why her name is a pun on "twilight," and her sun counterpart is [[Brighton]].


Once all pages in the [[Miracle Book]] are bought, Brighton and Twila see how much work everyone has done to fill the Star Bank. They both make up and promise to get along. As an award for their hard work, the sun and moon scatter the Stars across the sky, being seen miles away. And so, she ended her feud with Brighton. Twila, as well as Brighton, make an appearance in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' as [[sticker]]s that can be collected.
