Millennium Star
Species Star
Debut Mario Party 3

The Millennium Star is the name given to a wish-granting star capable of speech appearing in Mario Party 3. An impostor posing as the Millennium Star appears as the host and final boss of the game, while the real Millennium Star only appears at the end.

Background

The Millennium Star is a special star that is only born once every thousand years in the center of the universe and is known for being remarkably bright. Whoever possessed it was said to be the Superstar of the universe. In the intro of Mario Party 3, the birth of the new Millennium Star is shown and it is said to have then fallen due to only being a newborn, seemingly landing in the Mushroom Kingdom.

Impostor Millennium Star

The impostor was a large silver star with a Wario-like mustache. His origins and motives in this deception remain unknown. He landed in the Mushroom Kingdom at the beginning of the game and drew everyone into a world within the toy box where they could compete in Mario Party games for Seven Star Stamps. He claimed that this was their test to see if they were worthy of wielding him.

As a likely early sign of his villainy, he would often knock the player's character and scold them whenever they cheered over earning a Star Stamp and urging them on to the next mission. He became nervous when the player character collected the last Star Stamp, likely as his deception would then be revealed, and so as his final test he challenged the player's character to defeat him in the Stardust Battle minigame.

In this battle, he caused miniature stars to fall down, but after cooling down they could be picked up and tossed at the fake Millennium Star to do damage. After being defeated, he confessed that he was not the real Millennium Star and fled to parts unknown.

Real Millennium Star

The true Millennium Star was shown as a small glowing white star with eyes. Throughout the game, it was hidden in Tumble's head and only revealed itself after the impostor had fled. The Millennium Star congratulated the player's character and then returned everyone to the real world before leaving, assuring the player's character that they had become the Superstar of the universe.
