“...the three...”

Marilyn.

Marilyn is one of the three Shadow Sirens and the middle sister of the older Beldam and the younger Vivian. If Beldam is the brains, Marilyn is definitely the brawn. She's is the strongest of the Shadow Sirens and is able to cast lightning magic against her enemies. She is described by Goombella as being the "strong, silent type". In fact, the only thing she seems to say is "Guh". However, she does say "The Three..." when the Shadow Sirens first meet Mario and company. Despite the usual grunting, her sisters can still understand what she is saying (or, at least, what she is trying to say).

After the Shadow Queen is defeated, Beldam and Marilyn give up on evil (as their Queen has been destroyed once and for all) and make amends with their sister Vivian.

Stats and Tattle Information

Boggly Woods Battle

• HP: 12
• Attack: 2
• Defense: 0
• Location: Boggly Woods
• Tattle Number: 122
• Tattle Log: She's one of the Shadow Sirens, which makes her Beldam's younger sister. She has strong Attack power, so it might be best to defeat her first.
• Tattle: That's Marilyn. She's a Shadow Siren, Beldam's younger sister. She charges up her attacks occasionally. Says here she's the toughest of the sisters, so it might be best to defeat her first, huh? Other than that, she doesn't have any particularly outstanding characteristics.

Palace of Shadow Battle

• HP: 40
• Attack: 7
• Defense: 0
• Location: Palace of Shadow
• Tattle Log: Beldam's sister, and therefore one of the Shadow Sirens. Her Attack is high, so take her out first.
• Tattle: That's Marilyn. She's Beldam's sister, another one of the Shadow Sirens. She'll attack you directly or use lightning. She also saves up energy for a big attack sometimes. So long as you avoid the brunt of her attacks, she shouldn't be too tough...
