Brighton, Mario Party 6

Brighton is a character in Mario Party 6. He appears like a sun and revolves around the world with the moon, Twila. Brighton's name is a pun on "bright," owing to his resemblance to the sun. He starts a fight with Twila by asking her, "Who's more impressive? You or me?" He refers himself to be "cooler" than Twila. Brighton also controls the board for three turns and switches off with Twila after the three turns are up. However, in Clockwork Castle, a player who lands on the Green Space at the top of the board has a 50/50 chance to change day to night instantly.

Once all pages in the Miracle Book are bought, Brighton and Twila see how much work everyone has done to fill the Star Bank. They both make up and promise to get along. As an award for everyone's hard work, the sun and moon scatter the Stars across the sky, being seen miles away. Thus, he ends his feud with Twila. He also hosts Speak Up, Mic Mode, and Solo Mode.

Brighton also appeared in Super Smash Bros. Brawl as a Sticker usable by any character.

In German versions of Mario Party 6, Brighton is female and Twila is male due to the sun having feminine pronouns and the moon having masculine pronouns in the German language. In the Japanese version, Brighton and Twila have voice clips.
