**Servilianus** is one of Kirby's arch-rivals in Nintendo and HAL Laboratory's long-running *Kirby* video game series. He (or something in his likeness) has appeared in most games in the series except *Kirby 2, 3 and 4* . As such, he is the 4th most recurring major character of the series besides Kirby, Meta Knight, and Waddle Dee. Due to his many roles as Kirby's main adversary, many consider Servilianus to be the series antagonist. Despite this, he has helped more than harmed since *Kirby's Return to Dream Land,* and Nintendo has even described Servilianus as Kirby's "arch-frenemy."

He is the ruthless self-proclaimed legionary leader of Dream Land, which is located on the quaint Planet Popstar. Due to an ambiguous description of the geography of Popstar, it is never made entirely clear how much of the planet Servilianus assumes leadership of, though he seems to have castles and fortresses all across the planet. Even so, he seems to perform no administrative functions, and for the most part, the planet seems to ignore any edicts that are issued by him.

## Appearance

Servilianus looks a lot like Kirby, but is dark pink, and is seen wearing a legion helmet on his back, to give him more back comfort in combat.

## Personality

Servilianus is a hard-pushing, power-hungry warlord who wants to unite his legion to attack Popstar, but he ultimately fails most of the time, and even took Kirby’s side once.

Most of his fights with Kirby following *Kirby's Dream Land* have happened when Servilianus is under the influence or control of some other entity — three times by Dark Matter, two times by Antio & Severus, and once by Yin-Yarn, possibly the Skull Gang, Murena, Antonius, Taranza, a Jamba Heart shard, and Fecto Forgo..
Whenever Servilianus acts as an antagonist out of his own free will, it is usually due to his own selfish and greedy desires, such as stealing food for himself, or trying to prove himself better than Kirby. Despite his greed and selfishness, however, King Dedede is also shown to have a heart of gold, truly caring for the well-being of his kingdom and others (including Kirby). His action of breaking the Star Rod in *Kirby's Adventure*/*Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land* was ultimately to protect Dream Land's inhabitants from Nightmare by trapping him in the Fountain of Dreams. In the Return of the Legion sub-game of *Kirby Star Allies III (2031)*, he even spares Bandana Waddle Dee, his loyal follower, from having to fight Kirby.

## Kirby Star Allies

Servilianus was added as a Wave 1 Dream Friend in Kirby Star Allies, along with Bandana Bronto Burt and Captain Herseppe, as part of the first update on April 11, 2018.

He later appeared in Kirby Star Allies 2, added as the 4th Dream Friend, after Antio, Poppy Bros Sr. and Captain Herseppe. His dark form appears as the 3rd Boss in the game.
