Francisca (named Fran Kiss in Japan) is a Boss who made her debut in Kirby Star Allies. She is described as the 'Frozen General', and serves the main antagonist of the game; the crazed magician Hyness. Her appearance is very similar to that of Susie, but she is dressed as a military general, and doesn't have visible feet. There are two other generals who are her sisters, named Flamberge and Zan Partizanne.
Only a brief glimpse of her attack patterns have been revealed thus far, but she appears to be able to hover, strike with a giant snowflake-style axe, and use a soaker gun to fire streams of chilly water. She appears in Jambastion as a Boss, appearing at the end of Longview Corridor.
Trivia
- Francisca's name is taken from the name of a particular type of axe; fitting due to her choice of weapon.
- After her reveal in the January 11th Nintendo Direct, Francisca became the avatar used on the Kirby 25th Twitter feed to present updates for Star Allies content and news, similar to Susie for Planet Robobot and the spin-offs therein. She would eventually share this role with the other two generals after they had been introduced.
- Francisca is voiced by Reina Ueda, a young voice actress and singer from Toyama Prefecture.
- Francisca's battle theme is titled Prayer Song to God. The 'God' is likely Void Termina.
