- “"I do". Say it now, K?”
- —Nastasia, Super Paper Mario
Nastasia is a villain in the game, Super Paper Mario, and the main antagonist Count Bleck's cohort. She has powerful hypnotic magic, which she uses to brainwash all of her victims into serving Count Bleck. She can also use it to force people into doing certain things, as seen when she made Peach marry Bowser. Nonetheless, she acts like a secretary and a very determined one at that. She takes her job very seriously even when it comes to following Bleck's order's or to repeating what Bleck says in first person to have it make sense, and give it emphasis.
She once asked Count Bleck if he wanted to stop before it was too late while he muses over whether Tippi could possibly be Timpani. He refused and offered to let her leave with his blessings. She, however, decided to stay, as she had sworn her life to him ever since he saved her.
She seems to have feelings for Count Bleck but does not want to attempt at him, because he is already very troubled by his past love experience (with Timpani).
If one goes to Flopside and listens to Carson at the bar, he will tell a story called "Of Bat and Men". The story talks about a man searching for a girl he loved who is missing. While he is searching he discovers a bat in a trap and sets it free. Later that night while the man is sleeping, a woman, whom he has never seen, appears to him. In the story, it is said that the bat transformed into that woman and pledged, out of love, eternal loyalty to the man. No one knows what happened to them. It is assumed that the man is Count Blumiere, the girl is Timpani and the bat who transformed into the woman was Nastasia.
After Count Bleck is defeated by the four heroes, Nastasia takes a supposedly fatal blow from Dimentio that was meant for Bleck. However, she is later seen alive and well. When she learns of what the Count did to stop The Void, she starts crying uncontrollably. However, everybody still feels that Bleck and Tippi are still alive somewhere. Mimi and O'Chunks suggest that they build that perfect world that the Count had told them they'd make after disposing of the previous worlds. Nastasia, regaining her composure, agrees. After that, the player may find her on the third floor of Flopside, where she comments on her feelings for the Count, and decides that she never could have measured up to Timpani anyway.
