| A '''Keyzer''',<ref>{{cite|language=en-gb|publisher=Nintendo of Europe|date=2001|title=''Wario Land 4'' European instruction booklet|page=23}}</ref> sometimes referred to as a '''Ghost Key''',<ref>{{cite|date=Fall 2001|title=''Nintendo Power Advance'' Volume 3|page=53|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref> is a small levitating creature in ''[[Wario Land 4]]''. It bears some resemblance to a [[Boo]], although with a [[key]] for a nose. A Keyzer appears in all 18 stages, always found asleep at first, but when approached, the Keyzer wakes up and follows [[Wario]] until he either loses all his health or exits the level via the [[vortex]]. The Keyzer then unlocks the sealed door that leads to the next stage and disappears upon doing so. Once the door is unlocked, the Keyzer cannot appear in the same stage again. If Wario exits a stage without finding the Keyzer, he cannot continue to the next stage. Wario can reenter any stage where the Keyzer has not been found. In [[Crescent Moon Village]], a [[Ghost (Wario Land 4)|ghost]] enemy shows an interest in a Keyzer, which it repeatedly tries to steal from Wario. The ghost moves faster after stealing the Keyzer, which may make it difficult for Wario to catch him, though the Keyzer can be recovered by touching the ghost.

| | | '''Keyzer''', or '''Key Bird''', is a small ghost-like creature with a [[key]] for a nose found in the [[Game Boy Advance]] game ''[[Wario Land 4]]''. If collected, it will follow Wario until he exits the level. It will then unlock the sealed door that leads to the next level for [[Wario]], and will disappear once it does so. The Keyzer can always be seen sleeping before Wario obtains it, and looks upon Wario with distaste when Wario wakes it up. He appears in all eighteen levels. If Wario returns to a level where a Keyzer has already been collected, it won't be found again. In the level [[Crescent Moon Village]], a ghost called [[Yūrei]] shows an interest in Keyzer, and tries to steal him from Wario because Yūrei seems a bit lonely. Yūrei won't give up his prize easily so Wario must hunt down his stolen key, thus wasting valuable time. |
| A Keyzer also appears in volume 28 of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'', on the page showing the chapter's end.

|
| | In the game's instruction booklet, Wario states that Keyzer looks like a pushover and he could easily take him down. |
