Wiz is a wizard or magician Boss that only appears in Kirby & The Amazing Mirror. In the game, he guards the Mirror Shard of Peppermint Palace and can be fought again in Boss Endurance.
Wiz has no visible arms, legs, or face, apart from two yellow eyes. He wears a black and white top hat, a red cape and white gloves and holds a wand.
Battle[edit]
Wiz is fought in a room with three platforms above the ground. He may move to any area besides the middle platform, charging into Kirby on his way. He attacks by summoning various enemies and objects from his hat. He hides in his hat when doing so, becoming totally invincible.
