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.
Personality: 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 Sir 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 Sir Grodus into releasing the Shadow Queen and getting his body destroyed in the process.
