Spinias are green creatures made of thin, papery discs in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and its Nintendo Switch remake. They commonly appear in Rogueport Underground alongside their later-found spiked version called Spanias. As their name suggests, they and their attacks are derived from "spinner". Spinias and Spanias are also found in the Pit of 100 Trials, which also features the very powerful Spunias. Two Spinias also appear in Chapter 3 where they help make up The Destructors, a Glitz Pit team who served as a replacement for Bandy Andy who had "retired". However, The Destructors exit the rankings when Bandy Andy comes back and takes their place.

Trivia
- Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door's data reveals what could possibly be another Spinia variant (seemingly a hamburger-themed one); this Spinia-like creature was supposedly going to be an ally of Luigi, as its sprite could be found next to those of Luigi's other partners.
- In the Tattle Log of the Nintendo GameCube version of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, there is no space in between "HP" and "3" for Spinia.
