Saint Nak is a Santa look-alike reindeer that only appears in Densetsu no Starfy 3. In the game, first he loses his Sack of Presents in Stage 4-1, so Starfy and friends have to find it. Starly finds it.

Later in Stage 4-2, his Sack of Presents gets ripped slightly so Starfy has to get the Sewing Set from Rockin' Baa. In return, Saint Nak gives Starfy the Reindeer Band.

Trivia

  • His name may be a play on Saint Nicholas; originally a Christian bishop (from the third-fourth century in tradition). In current times however, his name is associated with the traditions of Santa Claus and modern day Christmas.
  • Just like Starly and Manta-han, Saint Nak has a Kansai accent, but also speaks similarly to other older characters like Lobber and Papa Star.
  • It is unclear whether Saint Nak is the Santa equivalent in Starfy's world or if he simply dresses up as him. He says that he delivers presents to children, and Starly even says that he looks just like Santa. However, according to the Santa Claus Answer Card from Starfy 4, the actual Santa looks visibly human.
