(I’m not sure whether this thing needs its own article, given that it’s not called “Sectra Spynum.” I’m also not sure if that’s a headband or something like that around its head.)

Spynum[1] is an enemy in the Kirby series, debuting in Kirby: Triple Deluxe. It is the only enemy to yield the Archer ability when inhaled.

Physical Appearance

Spynum is a shifty bipedal enemy. It has a blue body and an indigo head with white eyes. The enemy has crimson feet (brownish-purple in-game) and spherical yellow hands. It wears a purple cloak and a crimson hat to keep its identity masked. The hat is adorned with a rainbow feather on its left and right sides. Spynum carries its red bow on its back when not firing an arrow.

An insect variant of Spynum, known as Sectra Shooter, is encountered in Royal Road. Sectra Shooter has a green body and head, as well as two green, spherical hands and two pink feet. It has two large, yellow-orange, insectile eyes, with what appears to be a pink band around its head. It also has two purple antennae. Additionally, it wears a pink cloak.

Games

Kirby: Triple Deluxe and Kirby: Planet Robobot

Spynum rarely moves. It holds completely still until Kirby approaches. The enemy quickly lifts the brim of its hat, pulls out its bow and arrow, and fires a well-aimed arrow at the hero. It immediately returns its bow to its back and lowers the brim of its hat.

Most Spynums are positioned on Star Blocks or other high platforms, giving them a good range from which to snipe Kirby. A few Spynums in the game walk around when Kirby is away. Most Spynums attack the hero from the foreground, but some stand in the background and shoot arrows at him from there.

In Kirby: Triple Deluxe, insectile versions of Spynum, known as Sectra Shooters, appear in Royal Road. They act the same way as Spynum.

Spynum never fires arrows from the background in Kirby: Planet Robobot.

Etymology

Spynum's name is derived from the word spy, describing the enemy's shady appearance.

Trivia

  • As illustrated in Spyum's artwork, it is one of the few enemies in the Kirby series to have thumbs.
