Pluid is an enemy in the Kirby series, debuting in Kirby's Return to Dream Land. It yields the Water ability when inhaled.

Physical Appearance[]

Pluid is a blob of water about Kirby's size. It has two small red eyes with a blue ring around each.

Games[]

Kirby's Return to Dream Land and Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe[]

Pluid hangs around on the ceiling, usually with others of its kind nearby, and drops to the floor when Kirby approaches. When on the ground, Pluid will simply hop around.

Etymology[]

Pluid's name is a portmanteau of "plewd," a drop of perspiration frequently drawn in cartoon media, and "fluid," which is liquid matter. Both of these words reference the enemy's watery body. Its name could also be a reference to the French word for rain, "pluie".

Trivia[]

Pluid GCN

The Pluid-like enemy from the cancelled Kirby GCN.

  • An enemy that resembles Pluid was intended to debut in the cancelled title Kirby GCN as an enemy and as the Helper for the planned water-based ability in that game. It is unknown if the enemy was an early version of Pluid or if the similarities are coincidental.
  • Pluid behaves similarly to Dropso from Kirby's Epic Yarn. It also appears physically similar to Drop from Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards.
