'''Beldam''' is the main antagonist of ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' and the leader of the three [[Shadow Sirens]], which consists of herself and her sisters, [[Marilyn]] and [[Vivian]] (who is later replaced with [[Doopliss]]). Beldam is a [[Shadow (species)|Shadow]] who is more than 1,000 years old and is the oldest of the three sisters. She and the Shadow Sirens work with the [[X-Nauts (organization)|X-Nauts]] to find the [[Crystal Stars]] and open [[The Thousand-Year Door]]. Beldam and her sisters are reoccurring enemies that appear many times throughout [[Mario]]'s adventure in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', making numerous attempts to slow him down and hinder his progress. She and her Sirens always appear during even numbered chapters and are fought a total of two times. In the end, Beldam is revealed to have been the one who arranged for the events of the story, using even the [[X-Naut]]s as pawns in her scheme.

[[Goombella]] states in her [[Tattle]] information that Beldam has several negative personality traits. Beldam is extremely rude, bossy, and often plays favoritism, treating all group members except for Marilyn as scurrilously as possible. She tends to be very absentminded and will often blame her own mistakes on Vivian. Beldam will constantly disrespect her, talking about how "ugly" and "useless" she is. Presumably because of this disrespect, she also seems to keep Vivian in the dark about her true plans about using Sir Grodus.
[[File:BeldamDisguised.png|thumb|left|200px|Beldam disguised as a merchant while selling the treasure chest to [[Princess Peach]].]]
 
A thousand years prior to the events in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', Beldam, Marilyn, and Vivian were servants of the [[Shadow Queen]]. After she was defeated and sealed by the [[List of implied characters#Four heroes|four heroes]], Beldam and her sisters created a plan to revive her so they could serve her once more. They soon begin to spread rumors of an ancient treasure that had been sealed behind [[the Thousand-Year Door]] and could only be opened with the seven [[Crystal Stars]], hoping to lure the unsuspecting into gathering them and breaking the seal, reawakening the [[Shadow Queen]].


Beldam will do whatever it takes to accomplish her goals, regardless of how many innocent lives are taken in the process. Beldam has also shown a blatant disregard for other lives by planning to release the Shadow Queen in the first place, knowing that the planet will get plunged into anarchy, knowing that it will result in the deaths of hundreds of millions. Beldam also seems to care very little about what will happen to Sir Grodus after the [[Shadow Queen]] has been released, since she only sees him and his organization as nothing more than pawns to be manipulated.
Beldam and her sisters found out about an organization known as the [[X-Nauts (organization)|X-Naut]]s and became acquainted with their leader, [[Grodus]]. They enlisted in his services, and Beldam later informed Grodus of the [[Magical Map]] that is contained inside of a [[Treasure Chest]]. However, the four heroes had placed a charm on the chest so that it could only be opened by someone who is pure of heart. Considering this, Beldam and Grodus decide to have someone else open it for them.


As leader of the Shadow Sirens, Beldam is the "brains" of the group and she is the one who usually comes up with their plans. Despite Beldam's constant forgetfulness and displays of incompetence, she has still proven herself to be a highly intelligent individual. Beldam is able to take advantage of [[Sir Grodus]]'s desire for power and control by tricking him into releasing the Shadow Queen. This, of course, results in Sir Grodus trying to command the Shadow Queen, getting blasted to pieces, and nearly getting himself killed in the process.
Therefore, Beldam decided to search for a pure maiden, and found [[Princess Peach]]. Beldam failed to capture Princess Peach immediately after she opened the chest due to being in public view of Rogueport's residents and an encounter with "a strange old man" (most likely [[Toadsworth]]). As a result, Princess Peach mailed the map to Mario, inviting him to go on a treasure hunt with her. However, by the time Mario arrived at Rogueport, Princess Peach has been kidnapped by the X-Nauts. Grodus interrogates Princess Peach for a small portion of time, asking about the whereabouts of the map. She refuses to tell him, but accidentally does so after one of the X-Naut soldiers tells him that a "dude in a red shirt and blue overalls" has defeated [[Hooktail]] and obtained the [[Diamond Star]].

Prior to the events in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', Beldam and Marilyn are servants of the [[Shadow Queen]]. After she is defeated and sealed by the [[Black Chest Demon|four heroes]], Beldam and the Shadow Sirens create a plan to revive her, so they can serve her once more. Beldam and the Shadow Sirens soon begin to spread rumors of an ancient treasure that has been sealed behind the Thousand-Year Door, hoping someone finds it so she can steal it.
When Mario first encounters the Three Shadows in the [[Boggly Woods]], they do not recognize him at first as their sketch is missing. Beldam eventually finds the sketch and recognizes Mario as soon as he comes back. Later, the Three Shadows engage Mario and company in battle and are defeated. As a result, the Shadows retreat and return to the [[X-Naut Fortress]], leaving Flurrie's necklace behind.

Later on, Beldam informs Grodus of the [[Superbombomb]], which will defeat Mario. Grodus reluctantly sends Beldam and her crew on another mission due to his frustration. This time, they are sent to [[Twilight Town]], but Beldam somehow misplaces the Superbombomb. Then, Beldam decides to leave Vivian outside to search for the Superbombomb. After Beldam and Marilyn are finished with their nap, they find out that Vivian is no longer there, and recruit [[Doopliss]] to take her place.
 
[[File:StarTheft.png|thumb|200px|Beldam, Marilyn, and Doopliss stealing the fake Garnet Star from [[Poshley Sanctum]].]]


Beldam and her sisters find out about an organization known as the X-Nauts and are acquainted with their leader, [[Sir Grodus]]. They enlist in his services, and Beldam later informs Sir Grodus of the [[Magical Map]] that is contained inside of a [[Treasure Chest]]. However, neither of them are able to open it themselves since they are evil, as it can only be opened by someone who is pure of heart. Considering this, Beldam and Sir Grodus decide to have someone else open it for them.
Beldam is seen again during the events of [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door#Chapter 6: 3 Days of Excess|Chapter 6]], where she attempts to obtain the Garnet Star before Mario. During Mario and company's ride on the [[Excess Express]], Beldam makes it her sole mission to stop them from reaching Poshley Heights at all costs.


Putting their plan into action, Beldam decides to go to the city of [[Rogueport]] to look for a pure maiden, who happens to be [[Princess Peach]]. Beldam fails to capture Princess Peach immediately after she opens the chest due to being in public view of Rogueport's residents and an encounter with "[[Toadsworth|a strange old man]]." As a result, Princess Peach ends up mailing it to Mario, inviting him to go on a treasure hunt with her. However, by the time Mario arrives at Rogueport, Princess Peach has been kidnapped by the X-Nauts. Sir Grodus interrogates Princess Peach for a small portion of time, asking about the whereabouts of the map. She refuses to tell him, but accidentally does so after one of the X-Naut soldiers tells him that a "dude in a red shirt and blue overalls" defeats [[Hooktail]] and obtains the [[Diamond Star]].
Beldam has Doopliss board the train disguised as the famous actor, [[Zip Toad]], so that nobody will suspect anything. By the time Mario, the group, and Pennington arrive at [[Poshley Sanctum]], they uncover Beldam, Marilyn, and Doopliss stealing the Garnet Star. As soon as they leave, Pennington reveals to Mario and company that "Garnet Star" they stole is a red herring, and tells them that the real one is hidden within the sanctum somewhere.

Most of the Shadow Sirens don't recognize Mario when they see him as their sketch is missing. Beldam eventually finds the sketch and recognizes Mario as soon as he comes back. Later, the Shadow Sirens engage Mario and company in battle, and are vanquished. Thus, the Shadow Sirens retreat and return to the [[X-Naut Fortress]], leaving the necklace behind.

=====Poshley Heights=====
{{quote|Normally, this would be where I finally deal with you and that homely traitor, Vivian... But something tells me that trying that alone might be unwise. So you live, for now.

[[File:StarTheft.PNG|thumb|200px|Beldam, Marilyn, and Doopliss stealing the "Crystal Star" from [[Poshley Sanctum]].]]
Beldam is seen again during the events of [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door#Chapter 6: 3 Days of Excess|Chapter 6]], where she attempts to obtain the Crystal Star before Mario. During Mario and company's ride on the [[Excess Express]], Beldam makes it her sole mission to stop them from reaching Poshley Heights at all costs.

As soon as they leave, Pennington reveals to Mario and company that "Crystal Star" they stole is a fake, and tells them that the real one is hidden within the sanctum somewhere.
During the events of [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door#Chapter 7: Mario Shoots the Moon|Chapter 7]] and [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door#Chapter 8: The Thousand-Year Door|8]], Grodus and the Three Shadows devise a plan to successfully open the Thousand-Year Door. He leaves Lord Crump in charge of guarding the base, as well as the Crystal Star that they find in Rogueport prior to the beginning of the game. Beldam has Doopliss disguise himself as the professor to trick Mario and company into opening the door. "Professor Frankly" informs the heroes that Grodus found a way to open the door without the Crystal Stars, and ends up entering the [[Palace of Shadow]] with Princess Peach. Beldam and the Three Shadows wait for Mario and company in the "outside" area of the Palace of Shadow, and reveal to them that "Professor Frankly" is actually Doopliss, and engage Mario in combat once again.

During the events of [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door#Chapter 7: Mario Shoots the Moon|Chapter 7]] and [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door#Chapter 8: The Thousand-Year Door|8]], Sir Grodus and the Shadow Sirens devise a plan to successfully open the Thousand-Year Door.

Later on, after Mario and company defeat Bowser and [[Kammy Koopa]], Grodus takes Princess Peach and manages to escape to the Shadow Queen's resting place. Declaring himself the new ruler of the world, Grodus unleashes her, which blanketed the world in eternal darkness by her presence. He then presents Princess Peach to the Shadow Queen as a vessel for her spirit. After she possesses Princess Peach, Grodus commands her to destroy Mario and company, but fails in his attempt. After the second strike to Grodus' head, Beldam, Marilyn, and Doopliss appear. She then explains to the Shadow Queen that she orchestrated all the events that occurred throughout the game. The Shadow Queen congratulates Beldam and the Three Shadows for their hard work and offers Mario and company a chance to join her. They refuse, and engage the Shadow Queen in combat, eventually defeating her with lots of support from the team. Princess Peach morphs back into her normal state and Beldam, Marilyn, and Doopliss retreat.

=====Redemption=====
At the end of the game, it's revealed that Beldam renounces her villainous ways now that the Shadow Queen has been defeated. She apologizes to Vivian, promising to never mistreat her again. Vivian accepts Beldam's apology, and now lives peacefully with Beldam and Marilyn in Twilight Town.
{{quote|Now that the [[Shadow Queen]]'s been defeated, I don't think Beldam's into evil. Oh, and Beldam also promised me she would never be mean to [[Vivian]] again.

[[Goombella]]'s field [[tattle]]s on Beldam are viewable when Mario first comes across the Three Shadows in Boggly Woods and again after Mario defeats the Three Shadows and Doopliss in Palace of Shadow.

[[File:PMTTYD Beldam Silence You Ditz.png|thumb|left|200px|Beldam scolds Vivian.]]
[[Goombella]] states in her [[Tattle]] information that Beldam has a "very unpleasant disposition", treating all group members except for Marilyn as scurrilously as possible. She tends to blame her own mistakes on Vivian, such as convincing Vivian into believing they were her doing. Beldam constantly berates and insults her, referring to her as "ugly" and "useless" and forcefully "punishing" her teammates. Presumably because of this disrespect, she also seems to withhold disclosing to Vivian about her true plans about using Grodus. Her disrespect also is not limited to Vivian; after Vivian leaves the group and is replaced by Doopliss, she refers to him as "freak-in-a-sheet" or "freak-sheet", as well as telling him to "shut up" in Chapter 8.
As leader of the Three Shadows, Beldam is the "brains" of the group and she is the one who usually comes up with their plans. Despite Beldam's constant forgetfulness and displays of incompetence, she has successfully tricked Grodus into releasing the Shadow Queen and getting his body destroyed in the process.

[[File:PMTTYD Ice Powers All Members.png|thumb|Beldam utilizing her ice abilities on Mario.]]
Although Beldam is physically weaker than the other members of her team, she makes up for it by using powerful magic abilities. Beldam possesses cryokinetic abilities, which she uses to freeze Mario and his partners, causing them to be immobilized for at least two turns. Beldam has various other abilities as well, such as increasing the size and attack power of her teammates, as well as giving them more attack turns. Beldam also has the ability to do the exact opposite to Mario and his teammates. Her other magical abilities are slowing Mario and his partners down, giving her teammates "fast" status, and the ability to poison her opponents. As with her sisters, Beldam also has the ability to use the [[Veil]] technique, where she can sink through the shadows and eavesdrop on other peoples' conversations (as she demonstrates in Chapter 6, where she hears from Mario and his partners that the next Crystal Star was at Poshley Heights). However, she has never been seen utilizing that ability in combat and only uses it during the various cutscenes that take place throughout the game.

*Beldam's name comes from the word "beldame", which is used to describe a sorceress or a hideous woman. It also comes from the word "bedlam" (with the L and the D switched), meaning chaos or disorder.
*Beldam shares some similarities with [[Dimentio]] from ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''; both are magicians initially believed to be a mere minion to the main villain, but secretly plotting behind their master's back. They are both later revealed to be the true mastermind behind their game's main events.  
*Beldam is the only one of the original Shadow Sirens to not have a common name.
**However, in Beldam's case, she does not attack Grodus after he is defeated, nor is she fought as the game's final boss (with the Shadow Queen taking these positions instead).

“Mmmmmmwee hee hee hee! I have no quarrel with you...but I simply can't allow you to hunt for the Crystal Stars.”
—Beldam, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Beldam is a major antagonist of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and its Nintendo Switch remake. She is the leader of the Three Shadows, which consists of herself and her sisters, Marilyn and Vivian (who is later replaced with Doopliss). She is more than 1,000 years old and is the oldest of the three sisters. She and the Three Shadows work with the X-Nauts to find the Crystal Stars and open The Thousand-Year Door. Beldam and her sisters are reoccurring enemies that appear many times throughout Mario's adventure in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, making numerous attempts to halt his progress. She and her Shadows always appear during even-numbered chapters and are fought a total of two times. In the end, Beldam is revealed to have been the one who arranged for the events of the story, using even the X-Nauts as pawns in her scheme.

Beldam's name comes from the word "beldame", which is used to describe a sorceress or a hideous woman. It also comes from the word "bedlam" (with the "l" and "d" letters switched), meaning chaos or disorder.

History[edit]

Background[edit]

“Let's go, my lovelies! Marilyn! Vivian! Come! We've got a job to do!”
—Beldam, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
Beldam disguised as a merchant while selling the treasure chest to Princess Peach.

A thousand years prior to the events in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Beldam, Marilyn, and Vivian were servants of the Shadow Queen. After she was defeated and sealed by the four heroes, Beldam and her sisters created a plan to revive her so they could serve her once more. They soon begin to spread rumors of an ancient treasure that had been sealed behind the Thousand-Year Door and could only be opened with the seven Crystal Stars, hoping to lure the unsuspecting into gathering them and breaking the seal, reawakening the Shadow Queen.

Beldam and her sisters found out about an organization known as the X-Nauts and became acquainted with their leader, Grodus. They enlisted in his services, and Beldam later informed Grodus of the Magical Map that is contained inside of a Treasure Chest. However, the four heroes had placed a charm on the chest so that it could only be opened by someone who is pure of heart. Considering this, Beldam and Grodus decide to have someone else open it for them.

Therefore, Beldam decided to search for a pure maiden, and found Princess Peach. Beldam failed to capture Princess Peach immediately after she opened the chest due to being in public view of Rogueport's residents and an encounter with "a strange old man" (most likely Toadsworth). As a result, Princess Peach mailed the map to Mario, inviting him to go on a treasure hunt with her. However, by the time Mario arrived at Rogueport, Princess Peach has been kidnapped by the X-Nauts. Grodus interrogates Princess Peach for a small portion of time, asking about the whereabouts of the map. She refuses to tell him, but accidentally does so after one of the X-Naut soldiers tells him that a "dude in a red shirt and blue overalls" has defeated Hooktail and obtained the Diamond Star.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door[edit]

Beldam, Marilyn, and Vivian in the Boggly Woods.

When Mario first encounters the Three Shadows in the Boggly Woods, they do not recognize him at first as their sketch is missing. Beldam eventually finds the sketch and recognizes Mario as soon as he comes back. Later, the Three Shadows engage Mario and company in battle and are defeated. As a result, the Shadows retreat and return to the X-Naut Fortress, leaving Flurrie's necklace behind.

Later on, Beldam informs Grodus of the Superbombomb, which will defeat Mario. Grodus reluctantly sends Beldam and her crew on another mission due to his frustration. This time, they are sent to Twilight Town, but Beldam somehow misplaces the Superbombomb. Then, Beldam decides to leave Vivian outside to search for the Superbombomb. After Beldam and Marilyn are finished with their nap, they find out that Vivian is no longer there, and recruit Doopliss to take her place.

Beldam is seen again during the events of Chapter 6, where she attempts to obtain the Garnet Star before Mario. During Mario and company's ride on the Excess Express, Beldam makes it her sole mission to stop them from reaching Poshley Heights at all costs.

Beldam has Doopliss board the train disguised as the famous actor, Zip Toad, so that nobody will suspect anything. By the time Mario, the group, and Pennington arrive at Poshley Sanctum, they uncover Beldam, Marilyn, and Doopliss stealing the Garnet Star. As soon as they leave, Pennington reveals to Mario and company that "Garnet Star" they stole is a red herring, and tells them that the real one is hidden within the sanctum somewhere.

Beldam, Marilyn, and Doopliss prepare to face Mario and his partners once more.

During the events of Chapter 7 and 8, Grodus and the Three Shadows devise a plan to successfully open the Thousand-Year Door. He leaves Lord Crump in charge of guarding the base, as well as the Crystal Star that they find in Rogueport prior to the beginning of the game. Beldam has Doopliss disguise himself as the professor to trick Mario and company into opening the door. "Professor Frankly" informs the heroes that Grodus found a way to open the door without the Crystal Stars, and ends up entering the Palace of Shadow with Princess Peach. Beldam and the Three Shadows wait for Mario and company in the "outside" area of the Palace of Shadow, and reveal to them that "Professor Frankly" is actually Doopliss, and engage Mario in combat once again.

Later on, after Mario and company defeat Bowser and Kammy Koopa, Grodus takes Princess Peach and manages to escape to the Shadow Queen's resting place. Declaring himself the new ruler of the world, Grodus unleashes her, which blanketed the world in eternal darkness by her presence. He then presents Princess Peach to the Shadow Queen as a vessel for her spirit. After she possesses Princess Peach, Grodus commands her to destroy Mario and company, but fails in his attempt. After the second strike to Grodus' head, Beldam, Marilyn, and Doopliss appear. She then explains to the Shadow Queen that she orchestrated all the events that occurred throughout the game. The Shadow Queen congratulates Beldam and the Three Shadows for their hard work and offers Mario and company a chance to join her. They refuse, and engage the Shadow Queen in combat, eventually defeating her with lots of support from the team. Princess Peach morphs back into her normal state and Beldam, Marilyn, and Doopliss retreat.

At the end of the game, it's revealed that Beldam renounces her villainous ways now that the Shadow Queen has been defeated. She apologizes to Vivian, promising to never mistreat her again. Vivian accepts Beldam's apology, and now lives peacefully with Beldam and Marilyn in Twilight Town.

Goombella's field tattles on Beldam are viewable when Mario first comes across the Three Shadows in Boggly Woods and again after Mario defeats the Three Shadows and Doopliss in Palace of Shadow.

Super Paper Mario[edit]

While Beldam does not physically or visually make an appearance in Super Paper Mario, she and Marilyn are still mentioned in Vivian's Catch Card description.

Super Mario-kun[edit]

Beldam and Marilyn
Beldam and Marilyn's appearances in the Super Mario-kun

Beldam appears during Super Mario-kun's Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door arc, though she plays a smaller role than in the game. She and Marilyn are first seen in volume 34 attempting to steal the Garnet Star in Poshley Sanctum.

General information[edit]

Personality[edit]

Beldam mistreating Vivian in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.
Beldam scolds Vivian.

Goombella states in her Tattle information that Beldam has a "very unpleasant disposition", treating all group members except for Marilyn as scurrilously as possible. She tends to blame her own mistakes on Vivian, such as convincing Vivian into believing they were her doing. Beldam constantly berates and insults her, referring to her as "ugly" and "useless" and forcefully "punishing" her teammates. Presumably because of this disrespect, she also seems to withhold disclosing to Vivian about her true plans about using Grodus. Her disrespect also is not limited to Vivian; after Vivian leaves the group and is replaced by Doopliss, she refers to him as "freak-in-a-sheet" or "freak-sheet", as well as telling him to "shut up" in Chapter 8.

As leader of the Three Shadows, Beldam is the "brains" of the group and she is the one who usually comes up with their plans. Despite Beldam's constant forgetfulness and displays of incompetence, she has successfully tricked Grodus into releasing the Shadow Queen and getting his body destroyed in the process.

Powers and abilities[edit]

Although Beldam is physically weaker than the other members of her team, she makes up for it by using powerful magic abilities. Beldam possesses cryokinetic abilities, which she uses to freeze Mario and his partners, causing them to be immobilized for at least two turns. Beldam has various other abilities as well, such as increasing the size and attack power of her teammates, as well as giving them more attack turns. Beldam also has the ability to do the exact opposite to Mario and his teammates. Her other magical abilities are slowing Mario and his partners down, giving her teammates "fast" status, and the ability to poison her opponents. As with her sisters, Beldam also has the ability to use the Veil technique, where she can sink through the shadows and eavesdrop on other peoples' conversations (as she demonstrates in Chapter 6, where she hears from Mario and his partners that the next Crystal Star was at Poshley Heights). However, she has never been seen utilizing that ability in combat and only uses it during the various cutscenes that take place throughout the game.
