'''Ashley''' is a character from several WarioWare games. She is a young witch who lives in [[Diamond City]].

=Background=

Ashley lives in a rather creepy mansion with her only companions being her devil sidekick, Red. She is usually found mixing different concoctions in her cauldron. Her mysterious powers are so great that she could, purportedly, rule the world if she desired to do so. In general she's not considered to be very nice and has few friends. She takes her magic seriously and never bothers with 'girly things' like dolls and combing her hair, despite the stuffed animal she carries around.

On one occasion of potion-brewing, she was missing one final ingredient, which she determined to be [[Orbulon]]. She sent Red after him, but once it was clear Red would be unable to catch the alien, she changed her mind saying she would use Red as an ingredient instead.

In ''[[WarioWare: Smooth Moves]]'', she sought a spell to make her plant grow larger and discovered a talking spellbook. The spellbook eventually taught her the spell she desired, and it turned the plant into a giant, monstrous [[piranha plant]]-like venus fly trap. Despite part of her house being destroyed during the growth, she smiled at it. 

Her segment in ''[[WarioWare: D.I.Y.]]'' consists simply of her standing on a dark road with Red. The game over sequence reveals that this is a film being shot by pumpkin-headed ghosts.

=Trivia=

*She might be a programmer for WarioWare. But it's hard to tell who is and isn't on WarioWare's nonexistent payroll.
*She has her own theme song with lyrics. 
*Ashley appears as a sticker in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', and a new version of Ashley's theme is also featured as music for the WarioWare stage.

-Her segment in ''[[WarioWare: D.I.Y.]]'' consists simply of her standing on a dark road with Red. The game over sequence reveals that this is a film called "Magical Witch Ashley" being shot by pumpkin-headed ghosts. Her microgame theme was food-based. Within this game, Ashley and several other game developers had switched over to working at Diamond Software in order to receive actual pay.

-In ''[[Game & Wario]]'', she decided to transport herself into the page of a book, but she accidentally sent herself to the wrong page. The page was full of candy and sweets, and her minigame consisted of controlling her in escaping from this candy world. Elsewhere in the game, [[Mona]] showed surprise at finding a photo of Ashley looking happy.
-Ashley was featured again in ''[[WarioWare Gold]]''. In the opening, she quickly hung up on [[Wario]] before he could explain his newest scheme to her. Her stage was part of the Twist League (based on using the gyro input similar to the gameplay of ''Twisted!'') with a Fantasy theme. In her story, she summoned a demon known as [[Gahrumble]] and quickly found that a different demon called [[Hum Gree]] was eating all of the demon realm's food. This caused her to go on a quest into the demon realm, which ended in her turning Hum into a harmless and fluffy version of himself. Ashley and Red were then able to invite Garumble to eat out with them.
-Within ''Gold'', Ashley and Red also appeared during the Potluck Gang stage of the Ultra League. They went on a camping trip with Orbulon, [[5-Volt]], [[9-Volt]], [[18-Volt]], [[Dribble and Spitz]]. As part of the accompanying potluck, Red brought explosive oysters, while Ashley brought a poisonous Mandrake root that she referred to as garlic. They played cards together. Afterwards, Ashley joked about whether or not there would be a next time, and Red embarrassed her by pointing out that she seemed to be enjoying herself. Ashley and the others also appeared in the game's ending, where they convinced Wario to share the money from the tournament. She was also featured as a playable character in the Pumpkin Panic minigame, where she had to defend a field of pumpkins from Mandrakes.
