Bubble Mage

The Bubble Mage is the main antagonist of Chirpy the Penguin 2 and a minor boss in Chirpy Reverie. He has a page in the character book in Chirpy: A Summary.

## Appearances

### Chirpy the Penguin 2

The Bubble Mage is seen a few times in Chirpy the Penguin 2 before the player battles him later in the game. In the first level of the game, Mountainous Metropolis, he appears in a closed-off area in the last room. He faces away from the player with his eyes closed before looking back, opening his eyes while showing off the Flawless Gems (which he presumably stole after the events of Chirpy 1), and flying away menacingly. The player character then chases him to the floating island on which most of the game takes place.

Bubble Mage is not seen again until the sixth and penultimate level of the game, Sizzled Sands. In one room, he is seen in an enclosed area the player cannot access. He stands idly before noticing the player, panicking, and teleporting away. After the player completes Sizzled Sands, they encounter a dark room with nothing but a boss arena and the Bubble Mage himself. The battle ensues, with the Bubble Mage using the red Flawless Gem to create spherical projectiles and magic fountains. He becomes vulnerable after hitting himself with one of the fountains, and takes three hits to go down.

If the player has obtained all five Flawless Gems, they pursue the Bubble Mage through Frostbite Forest while riding FearlessBot (who, for the first and only time in the series, transforms into an airplane). The Bubble Mage flies as fast as he can to escape the player (and, later, Christopher the Penguin), but his efforts are in vain and he is taken down by a laser. It is unclear whether or not Bubble Mage survives this incident, as he is not seen in another mainline game until Chirpy Reverie (a game that brings back characters from earlier in the series, both alive and dead).

### Chirpy: A Summary

The Bubble Mage receives his own page in Chirpy: A Summary. This page gives us a lot more information on the Bubble Mage, a character mostly shrouded in mystery prior to this project. His page gives us his height (3'1"), likes (jewels and power), dislikes (anything that gets in his way), and age at the time of Chirpy 4 (21), in addition to the information that the Flawless Gems possessed him (presumably between his short appearance in Sizzled Sands and the battle against him later in the same level). In addition, the Chirpy 2 pages in the lore book explain that his hat is what caused Christopher to become a giant. It is unknown what other magical abilities this hat has, and whether or not it is the source of the Bubble Mage's abilities.

His bio says the following: "The malicous Bubble Mage cared for only one thing: the Flawless Gems. However, his greed for the gems was powered by his lust for the power within the gems. However, he didn't know how the gems would posess him. He was later summoned as the guardian of the red Flawless Gem." The words "malicious" and "possess" are misspelled as "malicous" and "posess" respectively.

### Chirpy Reverie

The Bubble Mage appears as the second boss of Chirpy Reverie. After Chirpy and Ignis run through Urban Thicket, they see the red Flawless Gem floating in front of them before the Bubble Mage flies in to stop them from grabbing it. He attacks with explosive orbs and dashing attacks. When his health is extremely low, Bubble Mage flies away in an attempt to escape, while using a magic wall of lava in a last-ditch effort to destroy Chirpy and Ignis. After the aforementioned duo escapes, the Bubble Mage meets his demise at the tip of Eryn's spear.

When Chirpy and Eryn are trapped in the Void of the Forgotten, Eryn explains that the Flawless Gems created creatures to protect them that resembled creatures from the old world, but lacked their souls. The Bubble Mage is amongst these walking husks.

The Static mimics Bubble Mage's attacks during the second phase of its battle on the Flawless Spire grounds. This is the last appearance of the Bubble Mage in any official Chirpy piece of media.
