Kelkie

Only in Japan!
	Gomen'nasai! This article is related to a game, manga series or other media that has not been released outside Japan. The coverage here may differ from what it would be in an official translation.

Kelkie (Japanese:ケルキー, Kerukī) is an ability in Densetsu no Starfy 4. It is the first transformation found in the game. Amiiyoshino gives it to Starfy. When using it, Starfy or Starly ride a red seahorse. Kelkie sleeps on the ground when Starfy or Starly are not riding her. Kelkie first appears in Tree of Beginning (Stage 2-2).

Controls

When no buttons are pressed, Kelkie will sink to the ocean floor. The control pad can be used to move Kelkie left or right. If the A button is pressed, Kelkie will jump up and rise slightly. If the B button is pressed, Kelkie will perform an uppercut attack which can defeat enemies.

Trivia

Name origin

Kelkie's name might be derived from 蹴る (keru) "to kick" and Kelpie (ケルピー in Japanese); a shape-shifting spirit in/near lochs from Scottish and Irish folklore, though the Kelkie usually appears as a black-horse like creature or in human form.
