The Wargoyle is a minor villain in the video game Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance. It is a Nightmare Dream Eater that attacks La Cité des Cloches, and serves Judge Claude Frollo.
History[]
Encountering Riku[]
While Riku is searching for Judge Frollo, he gets ambushed by the Wargoyle in the Outskirts of La Cité des Cloches. The beast chases Riku to the Mill, where Riku finally finds Frollo, attempting to punish the inhabitants for harboring gypsies, and Phoebus, who tries to stop him. When the Wargoyle appears, Riku realizes that it was created from Frollo's darkness, but the insane judge claims that he was granted the beast as an agent of "righteous judgment" to destroy the gypsies forever. When Phoebus attempts to stop Frollo from leaving, the Wargoyle easily overpowers him and leaves the soldier badly injured. After Riku tracks Frollo to the top of Notre Dame, the judge summons the Wargoyle to eliminate him. In an ensuing battle, Riku destroys the Wargoyle's wings, and the Nightmare falls into the fires below.
Encountering Sora[]
On Sora's side of the world, Sora attempts to follow Frollo when the judge chases Quasimodo and Esmeralda into Notre Dame, when the wingless Wargoyle plummets into the square. Sora manages to finish off the Nightmare, then proceeds into Notre Dame.
Summoned by Spellican[]
When the Spellican Nightmare attacks Sora's side of Traverse Town, it summons the wingless Wargoyle to replace Hockomonkey, which is then replaced by Char Clawbster upon its demise.
Trivia[]
- Wargoyle is often considered to be one of the most disappointing bosses in Dream Drop Distance. Many who played Dream Drop Distance wanted to fight Frollo (incidentally, Haley Joel Osment, who voices Sora and Vanitas, also voiced Phoebus and Esmeralda's son Zephyr in The Hunchback of Notre Dame 2), Sora’s battle against it is one of the more difficult bosses, especially since it's one of the first bosses, and many complained that the music does not fit.
