Tropic Woods, titled Unfriendly Fronds, is a boss in the Kirby series, making his debut in Kirby and the Forgotten Land. He appears to be a tropical spin-off of the Whispy Woods family, resembling both a palm tree and a pineapple with his bulbous trunk and dense foliage. Notably, Tropic Woods has a small beard made of grass-like fibers under his mouth. Tropic Woods appears as the boss of Everbay Coast. Some of his abilities include using his roots to entrap Kirby and dropping a mesh fence in front of his face for protection.
Attacks
Being a relative of Whispy Woods, Tropic Woods is a largely stationary boss (being only able to swivel his face towards his target), and as such, his attacks mainly consist of throwing out projectiles and reaching through the ground with his roots. Fitting for a tree, Tropic Woods is weak to Fire-based attacks: if Kirby hits him with enough fire damage, lingering flames appear on his face that deal repeated small chips of damage to the boss for a while.
The following is currently known about Tropic Woods' attack patterns (attack names are conjectural). Attacks in italics are only used in Phase 2.
| Tropic Woods' attacks in Kirby and the Forgotten Land | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Attack | Description | Variants | ||
| Coconut Shower | Tropic Woods drops large coconut boulders down from his canopy which impact the sand and then explode after a moment, leaving a Drop Star behind. | |||
| Air Bullet | Tropic Woods breathes in and spits out an Air Bullet at his target, traveling forward a moderate distance before leaving a Drop Star behind. | In the second phase, Tropic Woods lets out a whole wave of these in quick succession along a long arc. | ||
| Protective Fence | Tropic Woods brings up a large metal fence to guard part of his trunk, causing two Drop Stars to appear on the sides when it pops up and knocking close attackers away. Attacks toward the fence will be deflected. The fence drops down after a while, typically being redeployed in a new position soon thereafter. | |||
| Tunneling Roots | Tropic Woods sends out two large snaking roots that tunnel through the earth and fence Kirby in, creating Drop Stars whenever they pierce the ground. These can be destroyed by attacking them to satisfy a mission objective in the main boss stage. If not destroyed, they will eventually be withdrawn. | |||
