'''Dark Matter''' is one of the primary antagonists of the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]], making major appearances in two games to date, namely ''[[Kirby's Dream Land 2]]'' and ''[[Kirby's Dream Land 3]]''. He also makes a minor appearance as the final boss of [[Kirby Quest]], a [[Sub-Game]] of ''[[Kirby Mass Attack]]''. He twice attempts to take over [[Planet Popstar]] and turn it into a world of darkness; the second time, he calls upon his master [[Zero]] to assist him. | '''Dark Matter''' is one of the primary antagonists of the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]], making major appearances in two games to date, namely ''[[Kirby's Dream Land 2]]'' and ''[[Kirby's Dream Land 3]]''.

His initial form is a disguise known as '''Dark Matter Blade''', which gives him a somewhat humanoid appearance with spiky hair, armor, and a cape, as well as a visor with a single eye. His other form is that of a shadowy sphere encircled by small fins, sporting a single eye. In ''Kirby's Dream Land 2'', the orbs are purple, and this form is referred to as '''Real Dark Matter'''; in all other appearances, the orbs are orange, and this form is simply called Dark Matter. Given that Real Dark Matter briefly appears with orange orbs when [[Dark Matter Clone]] is defeated, ''Kirby's Dream Land 3'' features the same character with orange orbs, and that most other artwork of Dark Matter features orange orbs, it can be assumed that the purple orbs were simply an early design difference. | ||
Little is known about Dark Matter's motives, other than his desire to turn Popstar into a dark world where his kind can thrive. He is capable of possessing other life forms and making them bend to his will, an ability that he frequently takes advantage of to possess [[Kirby]]'s friends and rivals (notably [[King Dedede]]), often forcing them to fight them. While being possessed by Dark Matter, some creatures obtain enhanced and sometimes bizarre abilities. He can also control [[Dark Matter (cloud)|dark clouds]] that serve the same purpose on a larger scale, doing so in ''Kirby's Dream Land 3''. | Little is known about Dark Matter's motives, other than his desire to turn Popstar into a dark world where his kind can thrive.
