'''Merlee''' is a character in the [[Paper Mario (series)|''Paper Mario'' series]]. She is a fortune teller who speaks exclusively in rhyme in every appearance, and, for a price, she will perform a spell with her various magical devices that will randomly increase [[Mario]]'s attack or defense, number of [[Star Point]]s earned, or number of [[coin]]s dropped when he wins a battle. Many different [[Shaman]]-like characters with this name and occupation are found throughout the world, making it possible that multiple Merlees exist, a claim supported by [[Wonky]]'s story of a tribe of "strange ones" naming their members after their services.

In the game ''[[Paper Mario]]'', she is depicted as [[Merluvlee]]'s twin sister and therefore also a sibling of [[Merlow]] (the latter being confirmed when Merlow receives a letter from [[Merle|their father]]). She resides in a hidden alley in [[Dry Dry Outpost]] and uses cards to power Mario up. Merlee offers three payment plans, and the length of time for which Merlee's spells last is dependent upon which plan Mario picks (e.g. the most expensive plan lasts the longest). Merlee's spells take effect randomly during or after battles, and the effects they bestow upon Mario are also random. When activated, a spell either increases the amount of coins Mario receives after a battle, doubles his [[Star Point]]s, or increases his attack/defense power by 3. Each of these effects lasts only as long as a given battle. After a period of time, Merlee's spells wear off, forcing Mario to pay Merlee if he wants their effects again.
 
In the game ''[[Paper Mario]]'', she is depicted as [[Merluvlee]]'s twin sister and therefore also a sibling of [[Merlow]] (though the latter is actually never mentioned). She resides in a hidden alley in [[Dry Dry Outpost]], and uses cards to power Mario up.

[[Image:Merlee.PNG|thumb|Merlee as she appears in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''.]]
In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', she can be found in [[Rogueport Sewers]]. Merlee performs the same service in this game (and is even given the same depiction as Merluvlee's twin, according to [[Goombella]]), except she uses a magical box (instead of magical cards) to enhance Mario's luck. This Merlee may, in fact, be a different Merlee than the one in ''Paper Mario''. This is because [[Wonky]] states there is a fortune-telling clan that names its members after their role in the clan. Perhaps the name "Merlee" indicates a certain role or ability one performs in the fortune-telling clan.
 
During the events of ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', Merlee submitted a trouble to the [[Trouble Center]] in [[Rogueport]]. Mario ultimately took on this trouble by agreeing to find the recipe for a [[Heartful Cake]]. [[Toce T.]], a resident of [[Petalburg]], told Mario the recipe: [[Ruin Powder]] mixed with [[Cake Mix]]. When Mario told Merlee the recipe, the fortune teller asked the [[plumber]] to get her some Cake Mix. Mario purchased some Cake Mix at the [[Pianta Parlor]] for six [[Pianta Token]]s, then delivered it to Merlee.
 
===''Super Paper Mario===
Merlee returns in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'' for the [[Wii]]. In this game, she lives in a mansion at [[Gloam Valley]]. She later moves to [[Flopside]] in a building adjacent to Merluvlee's house in [[Flipside]] to help Mario and his party. This Merlee appears rather angular and strange (not looking even vaguely like past Merlees), taking on the appearance of other female members of [[Merlon]]'s clan. Like the Merlee in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door'', this may be a different Merlee.


[[Merlee's Mansion]] is a major level in Chapter Two. [[Mimi]] also makes an appearance here, initially posing as Merlee's maid in her standard form, then eventually Merlee herself &ndash; in three separate occasions, in fact. The first is when she attempts to trick Mario into thinking he finally found Merlee, but an apparition of the real Merlee appears, exposing her as a fake. She impersonates Merlee again once the real Merlee is found, causing a confusion that is only settled with [["That's My Merlee!" Show|a game show]] hosted by [[The InterNed]]. During the subsequent battle with Mimi, Merlee cheers from outside the bathroom, healing Mario and his party. After Mimi is defeated, Merlee gives Mario and his party the third [[Pure Heart]]. Much later in the game, Mimi disguises herself as Merlee once more in [[Castle Bleck]], asking Mario and friends what [[enemies|monsters]] they fear the most.
After delivering Merlee's [[List of letters in Paper Mario#Normal Letters|letter]] to [[Merlon]] with [[Parakarry]], Merlon says, "Oh, my granddaughter, Merlee! She recently entered the family business...".


This Merlee is Merluvlee's rival, and has been ever since they were classmates. After Chapter 2, Merlee works as a fortune teller in [[Flopside]].  She begins a trading sequence by requesting that Mario bring her a [[Crystal Ball]] from Merluvlee.   Merluvlee also apparently once helped Merlee greatly sometime before the events of ''Super Paper Mario'', as she tells Mario and friends to tell Merlee "Now we're even" as they give her the Crystal Ball. In the end, Merlee gives Mario a [[key]] that unlocks the building holding [[Piccolo]].
===''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''===
[[File:PMTTYDNS Merlee Spell.jpg|thumb|Merlee's spell activating in the [[Nintendo Switch]] [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch)|remake]]]]
In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', she can be found in [[Rogueport Underground]]. Merlee performs the same service in this game as she did in ''Paper Mario'' (and is even given the same depiction as Merluvlee's twin, according to [[Goombella]]), except she uses a magical box instead of magical cards to enhance Mario's luck.


Merlee's charms work differently in this game than the previous games. For her cheapest spell, she'll make Mario get a helpful item every time he kills 25 enemies for 10 times. For the medium priced, she'll give Mario a helpful item every time he kills 20 enemies for 15 times. And for the most expensive, she'll give Mario a helpful item every time he kills 15 enemies for 25 times. She is very useful for the Pit of 100 trials. She will, however, allow the player to receive all levels of charms for free if Mario brought her the Crystal Ball from Merluvlee.
During the events of ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', Merlee submits a [[Heartful Cake recipe...|trouble]] to the [[Trouble Center]] in [[Rogueport]], where she requests to be reminded of the ingredients for a [[Heartful Cake]]. [[Toce T.]] in [[Petalburg]] informs Mario that the recipe for the cake requires [[Ruin Powder]] mixed with [[Cake Mix]]. Toce T. questions who Merlee might be making a cake for this time. After Mario tells Merlee the recipe, she asks Mario to bring her Cake Mix (as she cannot leave her shop to get any). Once Mario does so, he is rewarded with 30 coins. She does not accept a finished Heartful Cake.

The first is when she attempts to trick Mario into thinking he finally found Merlee, but an apparition of the real Merlee appears, exposing her as a fake. She impersonates Merlee again once the real Merlee is found hiding in a washroom stall, causing a confusion that is only settled with the [["That's My Merlee!" show]] hosted by [[The InterNed]] (although the real Merlee had a fly buzzing around her head due to hiding in the toilet, providing an easier way to tell her apart from Mimi). During the subsequent battle with Mimi, Merlee cheers from outside the bathroom, healing Mario and his party. After Mimi is defeated, Merlee gives Mario and his party the third [[Pure Heart]]. Much later in the game, Mimi disguises herself as Merlee once more in [[Castle Bleck]], asking Mario and friends what [[enemies|monsters]] they fear the most.

Merlee's charms work differently in this game than the previous games. After defeating a certain amount of enemies, a roulette of helpful items appears and Mario is given one item from the roulette. She allows Mario to receive any level of charm for free one time if Mario and friends brought her the Crystal Ball from Merluvlee.

“I'm Merlee, you see? That's me! A cuter gal you'll never see. I do magic, but not for free.”
—Merlee, Paper Mario

Merlee is a character in the Paper Mario series. She is a fortune teller who speaks exclusively in rhyme in every appearance, and, for a price, she performs a spell with her various magical devices that randomly increases Mario's attack or defense, number of Star Points earned, or number of coins dropped when he wins a battle.

History[edit]

Paper Mario[edit]

Her tent in Dry Dry Outpost

In the game Paper Mario, she is depicted as Merluvlee's twin sister and therefore also a sibling of Merlow (the latter being confirmed when Merlow receives a letter from their father). She resides in a hidden alley in Dry Dry Outpost and uses cards to power Mario up. Merlee offers three payment plans, and the length of time for which Merlee's spells last is dependent upon which plan Mario picks (e.g. the most expensive plan lasts the longest). Merlee's spells take effect randomly during or after battles, and the effects they bestow upon Mario are also random. When activated, a spell either increases the amount of coins Mario receives after a battle, doubles his Star Points, or increases his attack/defense power by 3. Each of these effects lasts only as long as a given battle. After a period of time, Merlee's spells wear off, forcing Mario to pay Merlee if he wants their effects again.

After delivering Merlee's letter to Merlon with Parakarry, Merlon says, "Oh, my granddaughter, Merlee! She recently entered the family business...".

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door[edit]

Screenshot from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door for the Nintendo Switch
Merlee's spell activating in the Nintendo Switch remake

In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, she can be found in Rogueport Underground. Merlee performs the same service in this game as she did in Paper Mario (and is even given the same depiction as Merluvlee's twin, according to Goombella), except she uses a magical box instead of magical cards to enhance Mario's luck.

During the events of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Merlee submits a trouble to the Trouble Center in Rogueport, where she requests to be reminded of the ingredients for a Heartful Cake. Toce T. in Petalburg informs Mario that the recipe for the cake requires Ruin Powder mixed with Cake Mix. Toce T. questions who Merlee might be making a cake for this time. After Mario tells Merlee the recipe, she asks Mario to bring her Cake Mix (as she cannot leave her shop to get any). Once Mario does so, he is rewarded with 30 coins. She does not accept a finished Heartful Cake.

Super Paper Mario[edit]

Merlee and Mimi disguised as her in the "That's My Merlee!" show

Merlee returns in Super Paper Mario. In this game, she lives in a mansion at Gloam Valley. She later moves to Flopside in a building adjacent to Merluvlee's house in Flipside to help Mario and his party, where her theme song, "The Road for the Lost" (which is also Merluvlee's theme), can be heard. In this game, Merlee appears rather angular and strange unlike in previous installments, taking on the appearance of other female members of Merlon's clan. According to the InterNed her theme heard when Mario and Peach talk to her in her mansion via magical projection is titled "Look out for me".

Merlee's Mansion is a major level in Chapter 2. Mimi also makes an appearance here, initially posing as Merlee's maid in her standard form, then eventually Merlee herself – in three separate occasions, in fact. The first is when she attempts to trick Mario into thinking he finally found Merlee, but an apparition of the real Merlee appears, exposing her as a fake. She impersonates Merlee again once the real Merlee is found hiding in a washroom stall, causing a confusion that is only settled with the "That's My Merlee!" show hosted by The InterNed (although the real Merlee had a fly buzzing around her head due to hiding in the toilet, providing an easier way to tell her apart from Mimi). During the subsequent battle with Mimi, Merlee cheers from outside the bathroom, healing Mario and his party. After Mimi is defeated, Merlee gives Mario and his party the third Pure Heart. Much later in the game, Mimi disguises herself as Merlee once more in Castle Bleck, asking Mario and friends what monsters they fear the most.

The following facts about Merlee were revealed during the "That's My Merlee!" show:

  • Merlee was born on March 25.
  • Her favorite smell is fresh air.
  • Her favorite food is strawberries.
  • She washes her bangs first in the shower.
  • Her nickname is the "Bashful Ghost".
  • She has no preferred type of guy.
  • Her favorite animal is a bear cub.
  • Her hobbies include looking through catalogs for crystal balls.
  • She wants the newest kind of crystal ball.
  • Her best feature is the lobes of her ears.

In this game, Merlee is Merluvlee's rival, and has been ever since they were classmates. After Chapter 3, Merlee works as a fortune teller in Flopside. She begins a trading sequence by requesting that Mario bring her a Crystal Ball from Merluvlee. Merlee also apparently once helped Merluvlee greatly sometime before the events of Super Paper Mario, as Merluvlee tells Mario and friends to tell Merlee "Now we're even" as they give her the Crystal Ball. In the end, Merlee gives Mario and co. a key that unlocks the building holding Piccolo.

Merlee's charms work differently in this game than the previous games. After defeating a certain amount of enemies, a roulette of helpful items appears and Mario is given one item from the roulette. She allows Mario to receive any level of charm for free one time if Mario and friends brought her the Crystal Ball from Merluvlee.

Charm details[edit]

The package bought determines how many times the roulette appears. Each spin happens after a random number of enemies has been defeated (between 20-70, in which the counter resets to zero).
