— The storyteller in Kirby's Epic Yarn

Prince Fluff is one of the two main characters of Kirby's Epic Yarn (and its Nintendo 3DS port). He is the prince of Patch Land, and travels with Kirby to collect the pieces of the Magic Yarn and return Patch Land to its former glory, after it was destroyed by Yin-Yarn.

Game Appearances

Kirby's Epic Yarn

File:Fluff Cutscene.jpg
Kirby and Prince Fluff become friends.

In Kirby's Epic Yarn, Prince Fluff is first seen being terrorized by a monster at the beginning of the game. Kirby, who was recently sucked into Patch Land by Yin-Yarn's magical sock, turns into a car to save him. After Kirby saves Fluff, the latter reveals his name and position as the ruler of Patch Land. From this point onwards, he can be controlled by the second player of the game. Prince Fluff takes Kirby to his castle to teach him the controls of the game.

After getting through Prince Fluff's Castle, Prince Fluff is swallowed by a monster, and Kirby defeats it, finding the first piece of Magic Yarn. The Magic Yarn stitches Quilty Square and Grass Land back together. Prince Fluff announces that Yin-Yarn had stolen the seven pieces, and that he has to collect the six remaining parts of the Magic Yarn to save Patch Land and its inhabitants. Kirby decides to join him, and they begin their journey. After beating Grass Land, when Kirby is trying to reach a tree, Prince Fluff shakes it, making Kirby fall off, and he chases him around. After clearing Treat Land, the two engage in a no-holds-barred cake-eating contest, but the monstrous cake collapses on them. Of course, Kirby won.

Towards the end of the game, Prince Fluff follows Kirby into Dream Land, only to find that it too had been turned into yarn by Yin-Yarn's magic. Kirby and Prince Fluff fight back, and defeat the evil sorcerer. Fluff has to return to his own kingdom, but gives Kirby the magic sock, so that they can see each other whenever they wish.

Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn

Fluff still retains his presence in the cut-scenes and the Kirby Dance in this title. However, he is no longer available as a playable character. Instead, he will occasionally appear in stages to help Kirby find a star bead or a Ravel Ability.
