Captain Vul is a character in Kirby Super Star and its remake . He appears in the sub-game Revenge of Meta Knight . He pilots the Halberd and is a friend of Meta Knight , though he seems to think, truly or not, that he owns the flying fortress. He is only seen in the dialogue and introduction of the level.
Captain Vul is an anthropomorphic bird and, despite his name, appears to be a type of hawk or eagle. He wears a captain's outfit, also appropriate to his name. Vul is prone to panicking and making rash decisions, and unlike the Meta-Knights , is in no way a fighter. As such, he is never seen in the stages themselves.
