'''Clawroline''', titled '''Lethal Leopard''' and known as '''Carol''' in short, is a [[character]] in the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]], appearing in ''[[Kirby and the Forgotten Land]]'' as a member of the [[Beast Pack]]'s council. She is an agile anthropomorphic leopard entity with extended eyelashes and eyeshadow, along with nail polished claws, which are able to be greatly extended. She is famed by many, and according to the 'Leon & Carol' [[figure]] description, she can only speak through meows. She is firstly fought as a [[boss]], but once the main game is completed, she becomes an ally to [[Kirby]] and his friends. | |||
Her name is a simple mix of 'claw' and the name 'Caroline', hence her nickname being 'Carol'. It could also be a pun including the word 'feline'. | |||

In ''[[Kirby and the Forgotten Land]]'', Clawroline is fought in the [[Danger under the Big Top|last stage]] of [[Wondaria Remains]] as its [[boss]], at first under the cover of a cloak. She is later fought again in the [[Gathering of the Beast Council]] stage of [[Redgar Forbidden Lands]], and is also battled in the Meta Knight Cup and The Ultimate Cup in the [[Colosseum]].

She is later fought again in the [[Gathering of the Beast Council]] stage of [[Redgar Forbidden Lands]], and is also battled in the Meta Knight Cup and The Ultimate Cup in the [[Colosseum]]. After [[Elfilin]] uses the rest of his power to stop [[Popstar]] from crashing into the [[New World]] at the end of the game's main story, Clawroline saves him off-camera, and shows up in [[Waddle Dee Town]]. Here, she notices that all of the [[Beast Pack]] except for Leongar had been accounted for after things had returned to peace, and requests Kirby's assistance. Speaking to her at first will lead Kirby to a small rift that sucks him and Elfilin up into the game's [[Extra Mode]]—[[Isolated Isles: Forgo Dreams]], where Clawroline is replaced by a stronger doppelgänger known as [[Phantom Clawroline]] in the [[Forgo Park]] stage. | ||
According to several [[figure]] descriptions, Clawroline was referred to by Carol and was closely partnered with [[Leongar]] | According to several [[figure]] descriptions, Clawroline was referred to by Carol and was closely partnered with [[Leongar]]—also referred to differently as Leon—before the Beast Pack was formed, as the two were the renowned leaders over the animal kingdom. Leon came across a long forgotten specimen known as "[[Fecto Forgo|ID-F86]]" one day and set his sights on the power offered by it. This resulted in the forming of the Beast Pack, and caused Leon to grow distant as he began speaking in a new language that Carol was unable to understand. She shifted her identity per what was preferred in the pack, becoming Clawroline instead, and joined in the scheme to stick by Leon, in the hopes that he would eventually change back to normal. | ||
Completing the Extra Mode by defeating [[Forgo Leon | Completing the Extra Mode by defeating [[Forgo Leon]] in the end will role a cutscene where Clawroline and the rest of the Beast Pack return several wayward soul pieces to Leon, returning him back to his old self and allowing Clawroline to reunite with him. | ||
