Starworm



The Starworm, usually referred to as He and Him in blue Technicolor text, is the supreme divine being of Tri worship. Unknown to most Tri worshipers, the Starworm is not actually divine or a being at all, but is in fact a spaceship of unknown origin. He appears to be another monstrous creature born of Ivory. Like the Ivory Beast, He appears to be a giant mass of Ivory covered in Eyes with some sort of brain in the head. After Royal meets the Starworm at Midway, He lands in the Impact Zone and becomes a boss. Birdman emerges from the cockpit after Robin defeats the Starworm.

=Boss Fight=

Phase 1
Robin will get zapped by a Mind Control beam, causing her defeat four hallucinations. Three of these represent the main party characters. The ways in which they attack Robin will vary depending on their Friendship levels. A higher friendship level will cause the beings to not attack her as fiercely.

Elro
Outside a destroyed house near a field of flowers, a shadow with a broken sword attacks Robin. This is the only shadow that can still deal some damage if the corresponding character's Friendship is maximized. Grab the flying Nut with the Galvanization Wrench and turn it to cause the flower to bloom to defeat it.

Mina
In a hall of tombstones marked with carvings of couples just as the Isi care of their wedded families, a floating shadow summons attacks. Spin the Galvanization Wrench to activate the nearby Conductors to cause the flowers to bloom to defeat it.

Royal
With the fractured large moon in the background, a shadow with the symbol of the Tri as its head will summon attacks at Robin. Spin each Gear with the wrench to cause each flower to bloom to defeat it.

Black
A weak shadow crawls on the ground towards Robin feebly. There is no scenery in the background. Shoot it just a few times (or once with a charged shot) and it will die. If Robin allows it to crawl leftward, it will die on its own after a few seconds.

Polro
Robin listens to Polro's monologue inside their home. Her action after this monologue affects the final boss's behavior.

Phase 2: 3 Hearts
Awake again to the surprise of the Starworm, Robin now fights the giant creature Himself. His weak spot is the glowing brain inside, exposed where Royal damaged Him earlier in Midway. His behavior depends on how many hearts it has left.

3 to 2 Hearts
The Starworm will attack by sliding His hands across the ground, bashing the ground with His fists, causing the Planet Spines to explode up out of the ground, or summoning blue bouncing balls that look like Eyes to attack.

1 to 0 Hearts
The Starworm will cover His weak spot with His left hand. He is invulnerable during this time. Grab the Nut on the back of His left hand and swing from it to damage the hand. Do this three times to destroy the hand and resume attacking His weak spot. He will fire blue orbs to attack Robin this entire time, which may be deflected using her wrench. After His left hand is destroyed, He will continue His same move set in a much quicker manner with His right arm only. He will also start occasionally summoning a Spine Controller to attack.
