Editing Klinger

'''Klingers''' are [[List of enemies|enemies]] introduced in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''. They are [[Kremling]]s that can climb up and down [[rope]]s and chains. Klingers are orange-skinned, yellow-bellied Kremlings with a long, scaly tail. They wear a green, white-spotted head bandana and a matching loincloth around the waist. Klingers (aside from [[Klobber]]s) are among the few Kremlings to have ears, in which they have a hoop earring for each one. Klingers have clawed toes but their fingers do not. Their artwork also depicts them having a large dagger in their mouth, though it does not appear in-game. Klingers do not have an instinctive climbing ability, but were instead trained specifically to achieve this ability.<ref>{{cite|author=Miller, Kent, and Paul Shinoda|title=''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' Nintendo Player's Guide|page=13|date=1995|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref>

Klingers are enemies in ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''. They are first encountered in [[Mainbrace Mayhem (Donkey Kong Country 2)|Mainbrace Mayhem]]. Klingers repeatedly climb up a rope or another object, such as a chain, before sliding down, usually making it harder for [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] to get across the ropes. A Klinger can be defeated by any attack. The affected Klinger falls off the rope when defeated. Like most other enemies, if Diddy or Dixie touch a Klinger, the player loses that [[Kong]]. In [[Krockhead Klamber (Donkey Kong Country 2)|Krockhead Klamber]], the Klingers are climbing on cattails. Later on, Klingers noticeably appear as in [[Chain Link Chamber (Donkey Kong Country 2)|Chain Link Chamber]] as the main enemies encountered. In the ending credits, Klingers are classified under "[[Kremling Kuthroats]]" along with the other Kremlings.

Klingers are enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. They are first encountered in [[Mainbrace Mayhem (Donkey Kong Land 2)|Mainbrace Mayhem]]. A Klinger can be defeated if Diddy or Dixie move horizontally into it while on intersecting ropes. In the end credits, Klingers, along with the other enemies and bosses, are all classified as part of "The Baddies."

 

An artwork of Klinger is among the graphics that can appear onscreen in Freestyle Zone as the player hits the [[Nintendo GameCube#DK Bongos|DK Bongos]], in ''[[Donkey Konga 2]]''.
