Orb
Orbs (Previously Capsules) are special items found in the Mario Party series, from Mario Party 5 onwards. Players receive Capsules (or Orbs) from either a Capsule Dispenser or an Orb Shop. They can either be used on the playable character (which may cost coins) or be placed on a space. Once placed on a space, the effect of the Capsule (or Orb) effects any player that lands on that space. They can be placed up to ten spaces ahead of the player in Mario Party 5, and up to five spaces in front of or behind the player in Mario Party 6 and Mario Party 7. However, in Mario Party 8, they are replaced by Candy. Hexes from Mario Party DS are similar to them.
Their orgin is unknown. However, it's most likely that the people hosting the party made the orbs.
