Drop is an enemy in the Kirby series, debuting in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards. It gives no Copy Ability when inhaled.
Physical Appearance
Drop is an amoeba-like creature, much of its body consisting of what appears to be either blue protoplasm or water. The outside of its body has a dark blue outline, and the body itself is translucent. Drop possesses a spherical, red nucleus that remains near the top of its body when it is extended or in the middle when it is compressed.
Games
Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards
Drop is often stationary, clinging to the ceiling. When Kirby is nearby, Drop will elongate and fall off the ceiling. When on the ground, Drop periodically elongates when Kirby is nearby. When carried over Kirby's head, Drop will collapse into water. A group of Drops also functions as a Room Guarder Stage 2 of Neo Star; six Drops appear at a time, and when a Drop is defeated, a new one spawns in. Each of the initial six Drops correspond to three more Drops that appear when defeated, making for a total of 24 Drops.
Etymology
Drop is named after the word "drop". This refers to Drop's shape, being like a drop of water, as well as its primary means of attack, which is dropping from the ceiling.
