Kirby may seem like an ordinary pink puff, but appearances can be deceiving! Rumored to be a failed creation of Nightmare, who is the boss of Holy Nightmare Co. (an evil organization that wishes to take over the entire universe), Kirby is a Star Warrior who fights for peace. He was awoken 200 years early to crash-land on Dreamland since his space-ship detected monsters on the planet. Because of this early landing, Kirby is basically a baby. He has trouble speaking, generally using a babyish "poyo" noise in place of words, and can barely think for himself, his mind dominated by food. Even if he is extremely young, however, Kirby possesses natural talents that can prove quite helpful at times.

In general, Kirby is a very simplistic, cheerful fellow. He can find the joy in the simplest of things, such as playing around with crabs or skipping along the plains on a nice day. Usually, he’s a very optimistic little guy, too; he mostly sees the good in things compared to the bad. He tends to be a good friend to bounce thoughts off of since he can’t quite talk, and he tries to comfort those he considers his friends (which is technically everyone who hasn’t harmed him severely). He doesn’t really think of himself besides his appetite, putting his friends’ safety first in all situations. His jolly persona is the one that the public generally sees. What isn’t so obvious, however, is Kirby’s sensitivity. Physical hits definitely don’t hurt him as much as mental blows, and if someone he considers close to him brushes him off or denies him a visit, Kirby can become quite worried and depressed. He once attempted to leave his home in Dreamland when his friends rejected his offers to play together, only to find out later that they were actually planning a surprise party for him!

Kirby does possess a remarkable battle instinct, but he isn’t the sharpest tool in the shed, oftentimes falling for the simplest of schemes, especially when baited with food. His seemingly black-hole stomach is the biggest factor in his actions, as Kirby is always up for a bite to eat. He lives for his stomach, so to speak. His usual daily motivations are to find tasty food to eat. He seems to like almost any kind of food, considering the local chef, Kawasaki, doesn’t have any cooking talent. Only Kirby enjoys his dishes.

Opposed to Nightmare’s monsters and schemes, Kirby is the evil mastermind’s biggest enemy. He is the only Star Warrior with the chance of defeating him, his natural abilities making Kirby a fearsome foe. Even so, Kirby is hardly a battle-hardened soldier, and he generally gets scared by the monsters sent his way before he takes them on. Kirby is also afraid of thunder and lightning due to a bad experience with a certain monster named Kracko, so storms tend to startle him.

Finally, though, with the power of the Star Rod, Nightmare was vanquished by the pink hero. Without any monsters to fight anymore, Kirby is living a life of peace…
