'''Taranza''' is a young wizard with arachnid-like characteristics, who serves as a prominent character in many games in the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]]. He first appeared in ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]'' when, on orders from [[Queen Sectonia]], he kidnapped [[King Dedede]] in order to prevent him from foiling their plans to conquer [[Floralia]]. In the end, however, he realized he had captured the wrong target, as [[Kirby]] would pursue him all the way to the queen's chambers and defeat them in combat. Taranza would later be betrayed by his queen, and eventually come to Kirby and King Dedede's aid in dispatching her after she had [[Queen Sectonia (second form)|merged with]] the [[Dreamstalk]]. From then on, he would be an ally to Kirby and King Dedede.
'''''Kirby's Block Ball''''' is a spin-off puzzle game in the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]] released on the [[Game Boy]] in 1995 in Japan and overseas in 1996. It was released again on the [[Nintendo 3DS]] [[Virtual Console]] in 2011 for Japan and 2012 overseas. ''Kirby's Block Ball'' is based on [[wikipedia:Breakout (video game)|''Breakout'']], with [[Kirby]] serving as the ball and the player controlling the paddles for the most part. The game takes place over eleven distinct stages, each of which are broken up into separate rounds.


Since ''Kirby: Triple Deluxe'', Taranza has made various appearances in subsequent games. In ''[[Team Kirby Clash Deluxe]]'', he serves as one of the principal villains, and is battled directly for the first time in the series (he also serves as a more minor plot element in ''[[Super Kirby Clash]]''). This is where he gained the moniker of '''The Puppeteer Magician'''. Taranza would become playable for the first time as a [[Dream Friend]] in ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]'', though he does not serve a specific role in the game's story. He has also made minor appearances in ''[[Dedede's Drum Dash Deluxe]]'', ''[[Kirby: Planet Robobot]]'', and ''[[Kirby Battle Royale]]''.<br/>
Like most of the other puzzles spin-off titles of this era, the game has a distinctive ''Kirby'' spin to the genre its based on. In addition to breaking blocks, Kirby must also contend with enemies, bosses, and special items and powerups. He can also utilize a limited number of [[Copy Ability|copy abilities]] to clear through blocks more efficiently and deal extra damage to foes. Finally, there are a number of [[Sub-Game]]s which can be accessed as bonus material, and there is a [[False Ending]] if the player does not satisfy a certain score threshold in each stage.<br/>
