History (in the Timeline for this Wiki)
After the Games
After Cackletta was killed by the Mario Bros., she existed in the spirit world for a while, brooding over her loss, when she felt herself pulled back into the realm of the living and found herself at a dark, depressing place, where she saw Fawful. She also met Gruntilda Winkybunion, and learned she and Fawful agreed to work together, and Fawful had built a robo-suit for Cackletta's spirit to control. The three of them then went to get revenge on Mario, Luigi, Banjo and Kazooie by kidnapping them. They then held them in a castle located on Star World, but soon they would be interrupted...
The Yoshi Bodyguards
First Encounter
Without warning, a group of weirdos named The Yoshi Bodyguards appeared in the castle. The YB attacked the Witchy Fury Trio and saved the Mario Bros. and Banjo and Kazooie. Although they were enraged, they decided to bide their time until Cackletta was able to possess Top Mon Hit with her spirit, forming Topletta. Topletta then went to Hoohoo Mountain, where she blasted her way inside and found a mystical power that gave her increased dark power, allowing herself to give both her and Gruntilda new bodies.
They later joined a group known as Federation of Evil Acquaintances, which was led by Dark Top. Cackletta was the second-in command, and took command of the group when Dark Top was incapable of doing so. Eventually, however, FOEA disbanded, and the Witchy Fury Trio would go to Cauldron Keep, where they've made their base since. A few months later, Fawful appeared with a shard of the Star Haven Star Rod, but the YB appeared and took it from them.
Stop 'n' Swop
At some point, they found the legendary Ice Key, but the YB showed up and took it from them. They chased the YB back to Star World, where they kidnapped Top and joined forces with a dark spirit named Darkost to let Dark Top control Top (they also took some of Dark Top's DNA for later use). Dark Top tried to bring FOEA back, but failed.
Gruntilda, however, knew a secret of the Ice Key, and so they went back to Star World and Fawful snuck into the Yoshi Bodyguards HQ where he found the Ice Key had been used at the Crystal Palace. Going to the Crystal Palace, they located what appeared to be an egg carton and used it to activate the Mystery Eggs. Although they had a head start, the YB were able to get the eggs before them and use them themselves. Despite this, the Witchy Fury Trio had a different plan for them, and so took the eggs when the YB weren't around...
Topmonhit Story
The Plot of Evil Dreams
In the very first story of Topmonhit Story, the Witchy Fury Trio stole the Fountain of Dreams Star Rod, the Master Emerald, and the Magic Paintbrush. They also joined forces with a multitude of other villains, and used these items to take over Star World by controlling the dreams of people. They then planned to kidnap a Jigglypuff to put more people to sleep, the Ripple Star to power their evil machines, and the Crystal Jiggy to fire the dream beam to other planets. They only got the third one, however. The heroes of the story, however, came and defeated them.
Comic Appearances
With the DNA they had gotten from Dark Top earlier, Witchy Fury Trio created a clone of Top named Fake Top, or Tihnompot. They had it steal various things such as the Chaos Emeralds, then they framed Top, got him tossed in jail, and Fawful, using a Hypno Beam he purchased on the internet, hypnotized Princess Peach. When Bob, Danny and Pyro, then Bowser and Koopworth nearly interrupted their plans, they threw them into the dungeon (which was the castle's sewers). Later, when they escaped and Top showed up, Cackletta fought them in spirit form, but the fight was interrupted when Fake Top used the Chaos Emeralds to become a perfect clone of the real one and they fought. Fake Top was defeated, and though the Witchy Fury Trio tried to get the emeralds, they instead got the Klopman Mushroom (one of the items stolen previously).
Later, Witchy Fury Trio found a Chaos Emerald at their doorstep. Cackletta and Fawful began to use it to create a fake medicine that could control the mind of anyone that ingested it while Grunty went to find more. They sold this medicine to people on Star World, but when Dr. Mario claimed it caused mind control (because it ruined sales of his Megavitamins), Chibi and Black Kirby tried to prove Dr. Mario right. They were kidnapped, after which Dr. Mario was, then Cackletta and Fawful revealed themselves. Just before they began to activate the medicine, Dr. Eggman appeared, trying to get their emerald, but before a battle begun, Grodus appeared and attacked all three of them, absorbing them and their powers. In the end, Grodus was defeated, and Witchy Fury Trio returned to Cauldron Keep.
Non-Canon Appearances
Nintendo Anecdote 3: Not Really a Trilogy
Cackletta made a brief appearance at the end of Act 2, in which she, Fawful and Grunty challenged the teams to a quiz. They were defeated, however, and would not return for the rest of the RP.
Trivia
- Topmonhit originally had an idea where Fawful would end up on Rareworld and help Gruntilda, which he thought worked well since Grunty had no assistant and Fawful had no one to assist. Cackletta was nowhere in this idea, however, until he finally used it in the YB.
