The Shadow Sirens
From Yb Timeline
"Let's go, my lovelies! Marilyn! Vivian! Come! We've got a job to do!”
-Beldam, Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door
The Shadow Sirens are a group of Shadow Creatures (formerly 3) and Doopliss (more or less). Their first appearance was in Paper mario: The Thousand Year Door. They later returned in The Shadows Cometh (Or Something Lousy Like That), and were reduced to just Beldam and Marilyn in Unity of the Shadows. It's unknown if Beldam still refers to her and Marilyn as The Shadow Sirens or not now that they aren't doing evilness now.

Beldam
Beldam appears to be the self-proclaimed leader of the Shadow Sirens in that she is always bossing everyone around. She mean, crabby, cruel, nasty, and just plain not nice. However, in reality, she did this to make herself feel better, as she knew that she was old, ugly, and rather weak. She finally renounced her evil ways with help from Vivian, although despite this, she's still somewhat bossy, egocentric and somewhat mean.
Marilyn
Marilyn is the strongest of the Shadow Sirens; however, she's also the silentest one. Most of her speech involves grunts such as "guh". She doesn't seem to really be all that bad, but she is a bit subservient, mostly just following Beldam's orders, making her a follower, not a leader. She was the only Shadow Siren to stay with Beldam the whole time.
Vivian
If Beldam is the brains and Marilyn is the brawn, Vivian is the beauty. She has an inferiority complex, which is largely the fault of Beldam's due to her mistreatment of Vivian. Beldam would often punish Vivian for trivial things and things that were Beldam's fault in the first place; apparently, another reason Beldam treated Vivian badly was that she was the actual hier to the Shadow Monarchy, which meant Beldam would one day be her inferior. Because of this mistreatment, however, Vivian ended up leaving the Shadow Sirens to help Mario. She still cared for her sisters well, even when she had to battle them, and knew that deep down Beldam cared for her. It was revealed in The Shadows Cometh (Or Something Lousy Like That) that she had known a high-ranking Shadow Creature named Noshum back before she came to Star World; in addition, they had secretly loved each other. She eventually married Noshum in The Unity of the Shadows (after being forcefully married to the Shadow Prince).
Doopliss
Doopliss joined the Shadow Sirens after Vivian left; Beldam treated Doopliss just as badly as Vivian, calling him a freak-sheet and mistreating him. Despite this, his abilities became quite useful to the Shadow Sirens. He temporarily became an actor, but went back with the Shadow Sirens after the Shadow Monarchy attacked Star World. He continued to help them out until he finally decided to quite thanks to The Yoshi Bodyguards.
The Shadow Prince
While not an official member of the Shadow Sirens, the Shadow Prince was apparently a royal Shadow Creature who aided the Shadow Sirens in attempting to return the Shadow Monarchy to its former glory. While he acted pompous, graceful, and skilled in both swordplay and wind magic, he was, in fact, exceedingly weak. He vowed revenge on Noshum after being defeated, but is apparently stuck in a janitor job now.
Ichy
Ichy was a feeble Shadow Creature who, while also not technically in the Shadow Sirens, helped them force Vivian to marry the Shadow Prince by hypnotizing her in Unity of the Shadows. He later returned as an antagonist, but wasn't very good at it. He apparently likes Quiz Shows.
