The Star Spirits are a group of seven powerful stars that first appear in Paper Mario. Consisting of Eldstar, Mamar, Skolar, Muskular, Misstar, Klevar and Kalmar, the Star Spirits are led by Eldstar.
They are seven of the few original Paper Mario series characters to reappear in other Super Mario games, along with Whacka, Tweesters, Koopatrols, and Goomboss.
History
Paper Mario
In Paper Mario, the Star Spirits are being held captive by Bowser's followers after he and Kammy Koopa stole their precious Star Rod and turned them into playing cards, in retaliation for their ignoring Bowser's selfish wishes.
After Mario and his new friends rescue all of them, they give him a special power called Star Beam, which is used to neutralize the effects of the Star Rod, and a ship that they can use to travel to Bowser's Castle. During the final battle with Bowser, due to the effects of Bowser's Power Platform, their Star Beam does not work against him, triggering a side battle with Princess Peach and Twink against Kammy Koopa. After Peach and Twink have defeated Kammy, the Star Beam is upgraded to Peach Beam, giving Mario a second chance at a victory against Bowser and to recover the Star Rod.
The following list of Star Spirits are as follows:
| Star Spirit | Name origin | Location | Guarded by | Power and SP needed | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 Eldstar |
Elder | Koopa Bros. Fortress | Koopa Bros. | Focus, 0 | Boosts Star Energy. |
| Refresh, 1 | Replenishes Mario's HP and FP by 5 and cures poison. | ||||
 Mamar |
Mama | Dry Dry Ruins | Tutankoopa | Lullaby, 1 | Puts enemies to sleep for a short time by singing a lullaby. |
 Skolar |
Scholar | Boo's Mansion, originally in Tubba Blubba's Castle | Tubba Blubba and Boos | Star Storm, 2 | Attacks all enemies, damaging 7 HP each. |
 Muskular |
Muscular | Shy Guy's Toy Box | General Guy | Chill Out, 2 | Decreases enemies' attack power by 3. |
 Misstar |
Mistress | Mt. Lavalava | Lava Piranha | Smooch, 3 | Replenishes Mario's HP by 20 with a kiss. |
 Klevar |
Clever | Cloudy Climb | Huff N. Puff | Time Out, 2 | Immobilizes enemies for a short time. |
 Kalmar |

 All together |
- | Star Haven | No one | Star Beam/Peach Beam, none | Negates the effects of the Star Rod. During the final battle with Bowser, Star Beam has no effect against the Star Rod due to the device Kammy Koopa made. After Princess Peach and Twink defeat Kammy Koopa, this power is upgraded to Peach Beam. |
