Pirate Gooms (also known as Spear Men) are brown Gooms that hold spears in Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 and Wario Land II. They pace back and forth in most of the levels. Their spears are pointed forward, so Wario should avoid hitting them from the front.
Pirate Gooms are likey a distant relative of the Goomba. In fact, because of their apparent lack of a body, they highly resemble the Super Mario World Goomba variety.
Pirate Gooms featured a minor change in appearance when the Brown Sugar Pirates upgraded into the Black Sugar Pirates in Wario Land II. In that game, they started wearing striped bandanas and toting tridents rather than spears (despite the fact that they are renamed "Spear Men" in that game). Also, a gargantuan form of the Pirate Goom, the Giant Spear Man, is seen several times in Wario Land II and serves as the game's "really final" boss.
Pirate Gooms do not appear in any other Wario Land game, although variations of Pirate Gooms do; in Wario Land 3, two new enemies -- the Spearhead and the Para-Goom -- are obvious variations of the Pirate Goom (although the Spearhead has the spear as an actual part of his body -- his nose). Similar-looking enemies also appear in Wario Land 4.
In the game Wario Land: Shake It!, similar looking enemies known as Bandineros appear, but they are lead by the Shake King instead of Captain Maple Syrup.
