King Foorlowber is a large enemy in the Kirby series, debuting in Kirby: Triple Deluxe. He also functions as a Mid-boss, since he must be defeated in order to progress, and he has multiple phases during his battle.

Physical Appearance

King Foorlowber is a very large relative of the Foorlowber and looks very similar to his other, smaller relative, the Ace Foorlowber. He wears a magenta witch's hat with purple stripes, and a golden, one-lined crown on top of it. The ghost has a thick, white ring around his gaping mouth and a periwinkle body with wing-like arms. King Foorlowber has a metal gray skull mask for a face. His yellow eyes are curvy and menacing.

Games

Kirby: Triple Deluxe

King Foorlowber only appears in Stage 3 of Wild World and Stage 8 of Royal Road. When Hypernova Kirby approaches the door to finish the stage, the huge ghost appears and covers it with a sheet, causing it to vanish. King Foorlowber will possess a group of objects one at a time, and he will either come out of it and attack Kirby, or attack him while inside the object. When he isn't attacking Kirby, his objects are too high off the ground to be inhaled. If the ghost attacks downward to Kirby's level, the hero can inhale the possessed object -- King Foorlowber will immediately escape it.

King Foorlowber first takes control of a vase, which rushes horizontally at Kirby. When that is inhaled, he controls a cuckoo clock, which swoops down at the hero. Once it's swallowed, the ghost seizes a portrait of Cookie Country's landscape; like the cuckoo clock, the portrait also swoops to attack. After Kirby inhales this, King Foorlowber possesses a grand piano with sharp teeth. It attacks by slamming down on the pink puff from above.

After Kirby inhales the piano, the ghost falls prey to the pink puff's suction. With a mighty gulp, Kirby defeats King Foorlowber.

In Stage 8 of Royal Road, King Foorlowber only attacks using the painting and the piano.
