Sprite of the snake in Wario Land 3

Snakes,[1][2][3][4] also called snakes heads,[5] vipers,[6] and serpents,[6] are enemies found in Wario Land 3 from the Wario Land series. They emerge from pots bearing the image of a snake's head, where they only emerge from it after the Flute from The Stagnant Swamp's Gray Chest is acquired, which plays a tune that causes them to emerge. When it is first acquired, they are seen emerging from pots found in The Peaceful Village, The Volcano's Base, and The Grasslands, levels available by the time this treasure is acquired, where one snake appears in each level. They also appear in The Colossal Hole and The East Crater, where there are eight and two of them respectively.

The snake raises its bodies from the pots, and when its head reaches the highest point, it breath fire on the ground, where exposure to the flames turns Wario into Hot Wario. Wario can also jump on their heads to use them as platforms to reach higher areas, or to Smash Attack their heads to retract them sooner. They are otherwise invincible, though opening a nearby treasure chest can technically defeat them.
