[redacted, probably]

Hedgehog-shaped jar, Neolithic period (3500-3000 BCE)

you taste exquisite, my lambkin

every friend he's ever had barring maybe like 4 have tried to kill him at least once

eats raw tomatoes like they are apples

once got his cake stolen and when he tried to get it back every single person he knew inexplicably tried to beat the shit out of him over it

is implied to be the living manifestation of love

bad at singing. really really bad at singing

has worked food service during a lunch rush

ran over a deer with an 18-wheeler once

went out of his way to find and kill god specifically so that the next time it incarnated it would be able to enjoy afternoon naps

frequently causes his own problems to a very amusing extent

is like 12ish

taught a baby bird how to fly once

is the world's unluckiest fisherman

might be a cosmic keystone of slapstick comedy

can clone himself at will and uses this purely to make backup dancers for the victory dance he does at the end of stages

slept so soundly he didn't notice his house getting carried into the sky by a giant beanstalk that grew next to it

there is a cloud that really hates him but because he is not particularly important or threatening kirby does not take him seriously

has been forced to kill people twice and those two people never came back ever again

one of his best games happens because he fell down a hole once

one of his best games happens because he ate a tomato made of yarn once

his strongest ability is not the giant sword, or the magic wand, or even the hammer. it is (of all things) pro-wrestling grappling skills
