Beldam

Beldam is a character from the Paper Mario series.
== Charactah Account ==
The bossy eldest sister of the Shadow Sirens. She has a tendency to make errors and blame her sisters — generally Vivian — for them. She seems to be in Grodus's employ.
Goombella states in her Tattle information that Beldam has several negative personality traits. Beldam is extremely rude, bossy, and often plays favoritism, treating all group members except for Marilyn as scurrilously as possible. She tends to be very absentminded and will often blame her own mistakes on Vivian. Beldam will constantly disrespect her, talking about how "ugly" and "useless" she is. Presumably because of this disrespect, she also seems to keep Vivian in the dark about her true plans about using Sir Grodus.
Beldam will do whatever it takes to accomplish her goals, regardless of how many innocent lives are taken in the process. Beldam has also shown a blatant disregard for other lives by planning to release the Shadow Queen in the first place, knowing that the planet will get plunged into anarchy, knowing that it will result in the deaths of hundreds of millions. Beldam also seems to care very little about what will happen to Sir Grodus after the Shadow Queen has been released, since she only sees him and his organization as nothing more than pawns to be manipulated.

== Trivia ==
* Beldam's name comes from the word "beldame", which is used to describe a sorceress or a hideous woman. It also comes from the word "bedlam" (with the L and the D switched), meaning chaos or disorder.
* Beldam shares some similarities with Dimentio from Super Paper Mario; both are initially believed to be a mere minion to the main villain, but had secretly been plotting behind their master's back. Furthermore, they are revealed to be the one truly behind the game's main events.
** However, in Beldam's case, she does not attack Grodus after he is defeated, nor is she fought as the game's final boss (with the Shadow Queen taking these positions instead).
