Rudy
Species	Unknown
Eye color	Red
Debut	Wario Land 3

Rudy is a very powerful and very evil being who resembles a giant, fat clown. He appears as the final boss of Wario Land 3 and the Story Mode of Dr. Mario 64.

Background

One day Rudy descended upon a world hidden within a music box in hopes of conquering it. However, the people of this world were able to fend off Rudy by sealing his power within the five music boxes, and Rudy was left powerless in the temple. But before losing his power, Rudy was able to place a curse on the people of the music box world that transformed them all into monsters.

In Wario Land 3, Wario found Rudy's resting place. Rudy tricked Wario into helping him and sent Wario off in search of the music boxes by promising a handsome reward. Wario succeeded in returning the five music boxes to Rudy. With his power restored, Rudy then betrayed and attacked Wario. He planned to resume his conquest of the music box world and later the real world after defeating Wario. But this was not to happen, as Wario successfully defeated Rudy. This also returned the people of the music box world to their original forms.

Rudy also appeared in Dr. Mario 64, where he had somehow occupied a castle in the outside world. He suffered from a cold, and he knew that Dr. Mario's Megavitamins could cure him, so he sent out the Mad Scienstein to steal the vitamins for him. Mad Scienstein was able to return with the Megavitamins, but he had both Dr. Mario and Wario in tow. Rudy was defeated, but when Dr. Mario saw he had a cold, Dr. Mario decided to follow his Hippocratic oath and cured Rudy. This caused Rudy to jump for joy.
