| “ | She loves sparkling beads and other shiny objects! Go collect some with her! | ” | — Cast quote from Kirby's (Extra) Epic Yarn. |
Beadrix is a character in Kirby's Epic Yarn and Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn who appears after Kirby designs Apartment #201 in Quilty Square. She is a blue square that is oriented diagonally, with two smaller squares on each side facing upwards. Her English name is a pun on the word bead and the female name Beatrix, which fits her because she loves beads.
She gives Kirby a challenge called "Beadrix's Run", which consists of collecting as many beads as he can within a time limit in stages already completed. The first time Kirby manages to collect a certain amount of beads, Beadrix will reward him with fabric. Completing a minigame level will make another one available if the level it takes place in has been beaten. There are 20 challenges in all.
