A Keyzer,[1] sometimes referred to as a Ghost Key,[2] 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 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.
A Keyzer also appears in volume 28 of Super Mario-kun, on the page showing the chapter's end.
