'''Hyness''', titled '''Officiant of Doom''', is the principal villain in ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]'', serving as the penultimate [[boss]] in Story Mode. He is the mad priest who worships [[Void Termina]], and leads his cult from the fortress world [[Jambandra]], where his dark god was sealed in [[List of rumors of ancient civilizations in the Kirby series|ancient times]]. Known as the Officiant of Doom, Hyness is a venerable wizard who conceals himself in a white robe with long trailing sleeves and a veil that covers his face, such that only his beady yellow eyes can be seen. While his shape and motions would suggest he has limbs, these are never seen from under the robe, which makes it entirely possible that he does not have any. Hyness leads a host of subjects, the most prominent of which are [[The Three Mage-Sisters]]: [[Francisca]], [[Flamberge]], and [[Zan Partizanne]]. When his hood is removed, he is revealed to have a blue face, blue and yellow striped ears, and eyes that move independently of each other.

When his hood is removed, he is revealed to have a blue face, blue and yellow striped ears, and eyes that move independently of each other. Aside from the huge nose, Hyness's face (particularly his ears) has an uncanny resemblance to the shape of [[Magolor]]'s head.


It is implied in the separate [[The Ultimate Choice]] - Soul Melter EX VS Special Pages of Francisca, Flamberge, and Zan Partizanne that Hyness saved their lives from doom. Since then, they look up to him with admiration and seek his guidance, a loyalty that is ultimately exploited by the crazed officiant.

*Aside from the huge nose, Hyness's face (particularly his ears) has an uncanny resemblance to the shape of [[Magolor]]'s head.
*In [https://twitter.com/Kirby_JP/status/1057889994239467520 one official Twitter post,] [[Francisca]] describes the nose of Hyness as "spiritual and amazing" (スピリチュアルでアメージングな鼻).

*Hyness is the first boss in ''Kirby'' series history who replenishes his [[health]] bar during the fight. He does this by sapping energy from the Mage-Sisters after summoning them to give himself a refill.

**Naturally, since he summons three logs dressed as the Mage-Sisters as Corrupt Hyness, he cannot siphon life from them here, so he is not healed.

*When Hyness summons the Mage-Sisters to drain their life-force, they can be heard laughing. Throughout his second phase, the Mage-Sisters can also be heard groaning in pain.
*Hyness' model had a yellow, blue, and green recolor in the game's internal files from Version 3.0.0. and earlier, much like those of the playable Friend Helpers and Dream Friends. This suggests that Hyness may have originally been planned to be playable during the game's development.<ref>[https://tcrf.net/Kirby_Star_Allies ''Kirby Star Allies'' on The Cutting Room Floor]</ref>

*In Heroes in Another Dimension, Corrupt Hyness lies unconscious in the background during the boss battle against The Three Mage-Sisters. However, during said battle in Soul Melter EX difficulty of [[The Ultimate Choice]], Corrupt Hyness is absent. Similarly, Hyness and The Three Mage-Sisters are not seen in the background of [[Void Termina]]'s second phase in The Ultimate Choice.
