'''Twila''' is a character in ''[[Mario Party 6]]''. She is the literal [[moon]] who revolves around the world with [[Brighton]], the sun. According to the game's intro, they also host the parties set up by [[Mario]] and his friends. Her name is a pun on "twilight", owing to her connection with the moon. After Brighton asks Twila whether he is more impressive than her, the two of them start to argue. The discord motivates Mario and company to fill the [[Star Bank]] with as many [[Star (Mario Party series)|Star]]s as possible in the hopes of ending their fight. The Stars in the bank can be used to purchase pages from the Miracle Book, and once all pages in the [[Miracle Book]] are bought, Brighton and Twila see how much work everyone has done to fill the Star Bank. They both make up and promise to get along. As an award for their hard work, the sun and moon scatter the Stars across the sky, being seen miles away.
