Pizzard

Template:Basic Enemy Info (Better)Pizzard is an enemy in Pizza Tower.

Description

Pizzard is a humanoid wizard that wears a yellow pizza-themed robe with pepperoni-inspired red dots all over, with a beige crust at the bottom of his matching pizza slice-looking wizard's hat. His two eyes are seen peeping out his outfit, with the rest of his face masqueraded by darkness. His hands wear white gloves and the little bit of arm that can be seen reveals his skin to be peach-coloured.

Pizzard is said to study "pizzamancy," a magic art that revolves around pizza. He is only an apprentice, however, testing out his magic on multiple things to see if it works correctly. While this power can be seen in the ??? Comics, his in-game abilities do not reflect anything pizza-related.

A Pizzard known as Dougie Jones is seen in the ??? Comics serving for The Noise. He has no special traits compared to other Pizzards though The Noise uses him primarily for help.

Behaviour

"The pizzard circle studies pizzamancy. Those apprentice wizards will try out their magic on anything. You could try getting caught by their magic bolt on purpose to become an invincible knight!"
— The manual.

Pizzard roams back and forth on the ground, turning at ledges and walls. When in horizontal sight to the player, he will stop and shoot a magical lightning bolt (unless he is scared by a player dashing at Mach 3 or higher) that transforms the player into their Knight form on hit, which can act as a tool for progression or a hinderance forcing the player to slide across a set of Stairs. Pizzard will become defeated when hit at Mach 2 or higher, thrown after a grab, thrown another enemy, or hit by most transformations (including the player's Knight transformation).

Trivia

• In Noise's Hardoween, Pizzards' outfits' colours are inverted.
• In older demos, Pizzard's stunned animation was reused for his scared animation.
