Background
Watt was a young and excitable Li'l Sparky who sported a pacifier. She enjoyed dark places and was even eager to take part in battle. At one point, Watt was captured by the Big Lantern Ghost and was used to light his lantern within the Shy Guy's Toy Box. During Chapter 4 of Paper Mario, Mario battled and defeated the Big Lantern Ghost. He then shattered the lantern, which freed Watt. Quickly recognizing the famous hero, Watt was excited to meet Mario and volunteered to help him.
After Bowser was defeated and the adventure ended, Watt was seen talking with some Shy Guys at the Toy Box, and she attended the celebration at Princess Peach's Castle.
