Bowby[Japanese title] is an enemy that debuted in Kirby's Return to Dream Land. It hovers in the air and will attempt to fire an arrow at Kirby or his friends if they come too close.
A Bowby is true to its namesake in that it is literally just a bow with a face. Bowbies will appear in any of the four cardinal directions. If facing sideways, its arrows will start to fall in an arc after traveling a short distance. There is a metallic variant that exists on Halcandra.
Bowbies do not grant any ability if swallowed.
