Lakilulu
“Please take care of Lakilester. He acts like he's really tough, but he's a bit of a pushover.”
Lakilulu, Paper Mario

Lakilulu is a female Lakitu and Lakilester's girlfriend in Paper Mario. At first, she and Lakilester (mostly Lakilester) are working for Huff N. Puff, and, as such, are minions of King Bowser. Following Mario's defeat of Lakilester (known as "Spike?" during the fight), Lakilulu stops Mario from doing anything else. Lakilester informs her that Mario must finish him off for good, for to the victor goes the spoils. She threatens to harm Mario if he hurts her boyfriend more. After Mario describes his true intentions, the rebellious Lakitu decides to join Mario's party and Lakilulu flies off into the sky. She can then be found idling to the left of the Wise Wisterwood, where she remains for the rest of the game. She also writes a letter to Lakilester later in the game. Lakilulu has a bit of a mean streak, especially if things don't go her way, as evidenced when she threatens to bop Mario with a Spiny Egg if the plumber doesn't forgive her boyfriend. Her name is a portmanteau of the female name Lulu and the enemy species Lakitu.
