Hi. This is Thesecret1070. I am an admin of this site. Edit as much as you wish, but one little thing... If you are going to edit a lot, then make yourself a user and login. Other than that, enjoy Villains Wiki!!!
Mm-hmm! A) Find that Mario guy and B) steal the map to the Crystal Stars, right? We can just do away with Mario and his friends, can't we? Or is that bad?
She is the youngest sister of the Three Shadows alongside her sisters Beldam and Marilyn, and initially serves the X-Nauts in their plans to unseal the Thousand-Year Door. Vivian was often subjected to verbal and emotional abuse by Beldam during the first half of the game and had the blame pinned on her for mishaps that weren't her fault, which would result in her leaving them when Mario treated her with kindness.
Vivian first appears alongside her sisters shortly after Chapter 1 has concluded where Sir Grodus gives them an order to ambush Mario and take the Magical Map from him.
In Chapter 2, when the Shadow Sirens were sent by Grodus to ambush Mario. Grodus gives the three a picture, and they go to Boggly Woods. Vivian found Flurrie's Necklace while going there. However, Beldam loses the picture and blames Vivian for it, taking away the necklace from Vivian. When Mario passes by again, it is discovered that Beldam had the picture all along, but she's still angry at Vivian and insists that it's somehow her fault. They then challenge Mario to a fight. In this fight, Vivian is the middle strongest of the party and uses magic. After they are defeated, they run away, leaving behind Flurrie's Necklace. Vivian hesitates and goes back to get it but ends up leaving; in the remake she tries to pick up the necklace but told by Beldam to leave it behind, which she does so reluctantly, allowing Mario to return it to Flurrie, allowing her to join the team.
Later on, at the Creepy Steeple, Mario fights Doopliss, a Duplighost. He steals Mario's body and identity, leaving Mario as a shadow. Meanwhile, Vivian and the Sirens have got an 'infallible' plan. They have a weapon that will surely wipe out Mario: the Superbombomb. However, it is lost, presumably by Beldam, but once again, she blamed it on Vivian. She then forces Vivian to search for it while she and Marilyn take a nap at the local inn. When Mario returns to Twilight Town, he finds Vivian searching for the Superbombomb. Possibly because he believes it will be used to eradicate the doppelganger, Mario finds it for Vivian, but they soon find that the bomb is broken. Vivian then gets saddened, saying that she was probably "meant to be punished for life", but Mario cheers her up. Vivian then asks Mario his name, but Mario is unable to say his name, and he tells his story to Vivian. She is shocked to hear that his name has been stolen, as such things do not often happen. Vivian decides to repay his kindness and help him get his name, identity and body back.
When Mario and Vivian finally reach Doopliss' room in Creepy Steeple again, they battle him along with all Mario's old partners, who think Doopliss is Mario. Vivian feels like a fool upon realizing that the one she was helping was Mario, and for a few turns, will not help Mario in battle. However, after two turns, Vivian returns because Mario was nicer to her than her siblings ever were. After Doopliss is defeated, Mario's partners ask why Mario would join up with a Shadow Siren, Mario stands up for her and Vivian joins Mario’s team for good. Throughout her travels, Vivian seems to develop a friendship with one of Mario's other partners, Goombella. At the very end of Mario's adventure, Beldam and Marilyn end their villainous activities and promise not to mistreat Vivian again. When Mario is preparing to leave Rogueport, Vivian is about to tell Mario that she has a crush on him, but decides otherwise, telling him that she thinks he and Princess Peach will make a good couple.

Trivia[]
In the original Japanese version of the game and some European translations, Vivian is a transgender woman, although the localized scripts of the English and German releases removed this detail. The international releases of the 2024 remake more closely align with the original Japanese script, including the detail of her transgender identity.
