Heavy Knight is a large enemy in the Kirby series, debuting in Kirby & The Amazing Mirror. It gives the Sword ability when inhaled.
Physical Appearance
Heavy Knight is a large, heavily armored knight with red metal plating and a spike on its head or helmet. It wields a large sword to slice its enemies. Heavy Knight's official artwork depicts it with gold spikes on each shoulder pauldron. Its in-game sprite, however, has only two crimson spikes per pauldron.
Games
Kirby & The Amazing Mirror
Heavy Knight is larger and slower than its smaller counterpart Sword Knight, but is also larger and stronger. It must be Super Inhaled, like all large enemies.
Kirby: Squeak Squad
Heavy Knight reappears in this game. When Kirby is possessing Heavy Knight as Ghost Kirby, he can use the sword and lunge it forward if the player double-taps the side button on the +Control Pad. Also, because of its heavy armor and slow speed, it is hard to move around.
Kirby: Triple Deluxe
Heavy Knight appears as a keychain in Kirby: Triple Deluxe.
Trivia
- HR-D3 and Metal General's heads resemble that of Heavy Knight.
