Queen Sectonia

“	Now then, hero of the lower world. You would risk your life for this land? You would stand against me, the ruler of the heavens? Very well... You will bow before the great Queen Sectonia! My beauty rivals the divine... And my power will crush all that you hold dear!	„
	~ Queen Sectonia to Kirby

Background

Queen Sectonia is the main antagonist and final boss of Kirby: Triple Deluxe. She is a decorated and prodigious bee-like creature whose ambitions are rooted in egoism and vanity. She appears to be the mastermind behind the creation of Royal Road, the abduction of Floralia's inhabitants, and even (indirectly) King Dedede's abduction by Taranza early in the game. She attempted to take over Floralia and Planet Popstar so as to become their goddess, but was thwarted by Kirby.

This dropdown contains the synopsis of Queen Sectonia’s story. Read at your own risk as you may be spoiled otherwise!

Long before the events of Kirby: Triple Deluxe, Sectonia was once a kind and fair queen, ruling over her own clan of insectoid beings, who lived peacefully in Floralia along with the People of the Sky. Taranza, her best friend and one of her servants, stole the Dimension Mirror from the Mirror World, and gave it to Sectonia as a tribute. Sectonia loved the mirror, and gazed into it day after day. Unfortunately, when she looked into the mirror each time, the mirror’s power slowly twisted her mind, beginning her plummet into madness. Her obsession with her own beauty was magnified to a dangerous degree. Losing herself in her own vanity and delusions of grandeur, she grew tyrannical and power-hungry. Using her magic, she parasitized and possessed many other beings, alienating her servants with her changing appearances, before eventually taking over and settling on the body of her current bee-like form for its beauty. Then, she took over all of Floralia and ruled it with an iron fist, in which the People of the Sky suffered, leading to the events of Kirby: Triple Deluxe. In a last-ditch effort to save themselves, the People of the Sky devised a seed composed of their hopes and dreams and sent it tumbling toward the land below, which so happened to be Dream Land. This seed was designed to grow into the Dreamstalk, and bring the hero of Dream Land up to Floralia to save its people. Seeing this, Queen Sectonia ordered Taranza to go down there and preemptively kidnap the hero so he would not be a threat, and sometime after, she captured and imprisoned the People of the Sky, likely so that they could not attempt something like that again. Unfortunately, Taranza mistook King Dedede for the hero and took him instead, leaving Kirby to give chase to save the king. Queen Sectonia does not reveal herself until the end of the game, but her presence is implied shortly before; banners and other pieces bearing her image are littered across Royal Road, the game's final level. When Kirby finally catches up with Taranza at the end of Royal Road, the mage reveals that he is a servant of Queen Sectonia, and that he had abducted King Dedede on her orders because he thought that Dream Land's self-proclaimed king was the hero the People of the Sky had tried to summon with the Dreamstalk. Afterwards, he takes control of King Dedede and uses him to fight Kirby. After Kirby defeats King Dedede, Taranza realizes - to his horror - that Kirby is the hero, so he quickly summons Sectonia while begging her to save him from Kirby. Displeased by Taranza's failure at his orders, Sectonia immediately blasts Taranza with her scepter, launching him out of Royal Road and towards the horizon. She then turns to Kirby and asks him if he would dare risk his life for Floralia and stand against her, and the two then engage in battle after she accepts his challenge. Kirby gains the upper hand in the battle and defeats Sectonia. King Dedede regains consciousness and Kirby, who is overjoyed to see his arch-rival is okay, jumps in celebration while holding his hands. However, Queen Sectonia rises up again. Impressed with Kirby's skill, Sectonia explains that control was true, absolute beauty before she retreats into the distance and fuses with the Dreamstalk, placing herself at the heart of the flower and causing it to bloom in the process, transforming into a rainbow, flower-like form of herself. Vines begin to erupt from the Dreamstalk and ensnare the entirety of Planet Popstar and Floralia, intending to make both under her control. A swath of vines covered in parasitic flowers begin to cover the castle, trapping Kirby and Dedede inside. As Kirby and Dedede panic, several People of the Sky arrive and provide them with a cannon-like device. with Dedede's assistance, Kirby uses the cannon to combat Sectonia's sentient vines. Once an opening in the vines is made, Dedede shoots Kirby through it and the latter ascends the Dreamstalk to confront Sectonia one last time in the skies above Popstar. Queen Sectonia is bested a second time after a long battle, and Kirby again celebrates, but one of Sectonia's vines grabs Kirby by the foot and captures him (also stripping him of his current ability). Sectonia then uses the vine to squeeze him to death, causing Kirby to scream in pain. Before she could finish him off, however, Taranza returns with Dedede in tow, having realized that his best friend is now a deranged and violent menace beyond saving. He throws the king down to Kirby, who uses his hammer to smack Kirby free of the vine. Then, while Sectonia is recoiling from the blow, Dedede throws Kirby at Taranza, who tosses a Miracle Fruit at him. Kirby and the fruit collide mid-air granting him his Hypernova ability for the final time in the game. Kirby and Sectonia clash once more, and a desperate Sectonia then makes a last-ditch attempt to destroy Kirby by firing an enormous beam at him, but Kirby inhales it (along with much of the platform, her petals, and even her health bar) and sends it back at her, vaporizing her. The vines covering Popstar fade away, and all that remains of Queen Sectonia are flower petals that slowly fall from the sky as the heroes are returned to the surface. With Sectonia purged from the Dreamstalk, it blooms freely and beautifully in Dream Land. Dededetour Queen Sectonia appears in the Dededetour sub-game. Unlike the main mode, however, it is King Dedede who confronts a more powerful Sectonia - now labeled Queen Sectonia DX - in her fortress to stop her plans. In the ensuing battle, Dedede manages to beat Sectonia DX, seemingly destroying her in the process. However, Sectonia's fourth defeat was far from the end of Dedede's quest: immediately after she is felled, the Dimension Mirror makes its surprise appearance and Dedede is forced to fight two more battles - first against a dark version of himself known as Shadow Dedede, and then against Dark Meta Knight himself, the last boss of the sub-game, who wants revenge against Kirby. The True Arena After Sectonia's death, four Miracle Fruits float down from the sky to the battlefield where Sectonia's final form was fought. Four of her flowers then consume the fruits, before Sectonia's body rises up from below and consumes them, reviving her from the dead as Soul of Sectonia, who serves as the final boss of the True Arena. Here, Sectonia has become so utterly insane, that she is nothing but a husk of her former self. In the original Japanese version of her second phase's description, she laments over herself. She recalls that she parasitized and possessed many and now cannot remember her true form. No longer able to hear Taranza's voice, she states that she must be given her eternal beauty sleep before the night ends, presumably asking for someone to kill her before sunrise so she may finally be at peace. Kirby Planet Robobot The real Sectonia doesn't appear in this game; however, a clone is created by Star Dream from remnants of flower petals after defeating her in Main Mode (or perhaps from Soul of Sectonia) to test Meta Knight during Meta Knightmare Returns. She retains most of her attacks in her first form, but the clone emphasizes her sword-based attacks such as her multi-stab and constant dives in and out of the background. When she is reduced to half-health, she will begin rapidly teleporting before attempting to strike her opponent from the back. She also can bring out her scepters to slam the ground, sending out a crystal-like shockwave that can damage the player. The clone also cannot summon Antlers to aid her. It is interesting to note that the hearts on her chest, collar, and crown are now broken, which resembles Star Dream's broken heart insignia. When defeated, the clone transforms into a being resembling Taranza, which was her original form before she became corrupted by the Dimension Mirror. Kirby Star Allies Though she does not physically appear in the game, Queen Sectonia makes a few cameo appearances in Kirby Star Allies. Stone Kirby can transform into a statue featuring Sectonia in her original form alongside Taranza. She also appears as a tracing in the "A Miracle Sent to the Skies" celebration picture. Lastly, a projection of her appears as part of Taranza's moveset as a Dream Friend, the move is called "Queen's Phantom."

Other

Standard Tactics:

Queen Sectonia is a parasitic species that drains the lifeforce of their opponent and then attempts to control them, if she views the lifeform as better she will otherwise possess them. If both don’t work she will engage in combat. During the first part of her battle, she can use six different attacks, which are usually preceded by teleporting. She can teleport to the left, then to the right before shooting three orbs from her silver scepter. She can teleport to the middle before teleporting to the side of the arena opposite of the opponent, transform her scepters into rapiers, perform a slash with each, and then finish with a double lunging thrust before reverting her rapiers into scepters. She can teleport to the left, then to the right, then the middle, where she then shoots electric shocks below her with her pink scepter; she teleports and repeats this attack on both sides of the arena before doing a longer version of it in the middle. She can teleport into the background, transform her scepters into rapiers, fly to the foreground, and then fly across the battle arena from the foreground to the background, before flying the opposite way, slashing her swords outward as she passes the arena. She can teleport to the left, then to the right, then the middle, before teleporting to the side of the arena opposite of the opponent, transform her scepters into rapiers, perform a continuous thrusting maneuver, and then finish with an outward slash. She can teleport into the background and create a ring around her waist, then fly into the arena and home in on the opponent; she will then return to the background, turn the ring into a giant one, and throw three of them at the opponent. After taking enough damage, Sectonia will warp to the middle of the screen and produce a huge crystal in the background with her magic; she will then use her magic to throw the opponent onto the crystal. She can teleport into the foreground and throw rings at the opponent; she will throw a ring from the left, then from the right, repeat this, and the throw six rings, two at a time, starting at the edges of the crystal and ending at the middle of the crystal. She can teleport to the middle of the arena and summon Antlers to attack on her behalf: two Red Antlers, four White Antlers, and three Green Antlers. Her electric shock attack has changed: she teleports to the foreground to the side opposite of the opponent, and has the electric shock sweep across the crystal, then spins around the crystal and stops in the middle of the crystal to perform the attack normally, then spins around to appear in the foreground again on the opposite side of where she originally was, and performs another electric shock attack that sweeps across the crystal. She teleports to the side of the arena opposite of the opponent before performing her continuous thrust attack. She quickly teleports to the left, then to the right, then middle, before teleporting to the side of the arena opposite of the opponent before performing her slash attack. After taking more damage Sectonia will use her scepters to shatter the crystal, blasting the opponent back to the first battle arena. Queen Sectonia will base her attacks based on if the Antlers are present in the arena or not. When Antlers are not present, she will use a rapid teleport maneuver followed by a double slash with her rapiers from behind the opponent. Her other attack is teleporting to the middle of the arena to summon Antlers: five White Antlers, three Red Antlers, or four Green Antlers. Once Sectonia is defeated she will proceed to merge with an object to gain even more power.

Queen Sectonia produces vines that blocks the opponent from her. If the opponent gets through the vines, Sectonia will use the Sectonia Flowers to attack. The Sectonia Flowers can perform eight different attacks; when attacking consecutively. They can each fire four flame seeds: one from the top, one from the bottom, one from the foreground, and one from the background. They can transform into blades and try to stab the opponent from above. They can transform into nuts with spines and charge from the opposite side of the arena, with the bottom one charging first. They can each spit a giant explosive seed. They can transform into blades and perform a cross slash. They can fire continuous lasers from the center, sweep upward, and then sweep downward. They can fire electric seeds downward in groups of five, three times; at the sides, in the middle, and at the sides again. They can transform into blades and perform spinning slashes level with the opponent. After dealing a certain amount of damage to her, Queen Sectonia will perform "Central Flower: Blow," causing an updraft that sends the opponent flying upward and to a new set of platforms. There are two platforms, which reach to the edge of the screen, leaving a gap in the middle of the arena. The Sectonia Flowers gain four new attacks during the second part of the battle. They can turn their petals into blades and fly from background to foreground, then the opposite, with the flower on the opposite side of the opponent attacking first; they then spin around in the background before approaching the foreground. They can transform into blades and stab from opposite sides, being level with the opponent before attacking. They can transform into spike balls and ram the foreground, background, and then the battle area. They can fire continuous lasers from above the opponent. They can shoot lasers from the background: first aimed at the gaps, then at the edges of the side platforms, then in the middle of the side platforms.

Soul of Sectonia sends out variations of her normal red-colored parasite flowers, having now turned blue from their exposure to the Miracle Fruits. Initially, she sends out two of these blue flowers to attack the opponent, which immediately attack with large eye lasers as they fly around the battlefield. Her flowers can transform into ornate swords that attack the opponent directly, instead of just plunging themselves in the ground as they did in the original battle. They can also fire energy seeds at the opponent with rapid-fire speed. Soul of Sectonia also can coordinate her flowers to attack the opponent in two different ways at once. As the battle continues, she sends out flowers in groups of four. When the four flowers perform their electric barrier attack, they try to crush against the ground or the top of the screen, depending on where the opponent is. The attack in which she and her flowers fire lasers at the opponent now has less charge time, and the lasers are capable of damaging the opponent more. Soul of Sectonia may also switch to a different side before firing another one and she can fire a laser straight. She can send out sharp vines from different sides of the screen. When she roars, the vines turn red and stiff and lash out at the opponent beyond full force. Soul of Sectonia stirs herself in her flower and unshackles herself from it to engage in battle with the opponent directly. In this final phase, Soul of Sectonia is more mobile, and can teleport around the arena at high speed. She is able to shoot 4 cutters in multiple directions when near the opponent. Sometimes, she may teleport multiple times before shooting two sets of cutters before stopping, leaving herself open for the opponent to retaliate. Soul of Sectonia has a variety of new powers, such as turning into a blue and pink paint blob and shooting multiple pink and blue paint blobs at the opponent from the background. Occasionally, Soul of Sectonia will warp to the background and summon random Antlers to attack the opponent. Sometimes Soul of Sectonia will shoot lasers out of multiple portals. Eventually, Soul of Sectonia will turn into a burning orange fireball with the background turning a fiery red. The light from the platforms will remain as the platforms themselves disappear. Soul of Sectonia will then try to crush the opponent by bouncing around the screen from the background and foreground. After that, she will rush at the opponent from the sides of the screen. Eventually, Soul of Sectonia will zoom in from the background.
