Description
Klumps are large, obese Kremlings wearing army helmets. They are the generals of King K. Rool's army, according to Donkey Kong 64's manual.
In the Games
Donkey Kong Country
In Donkey Kong Country, Klumps appear often. They walk along a single pattern, much like other enemies, and have no formal attack other than collision with Donkey or Diddy Kong. However, their helmet makes them invulnerable to being jumped on by Diddy. Therefore, they can only be defeated by rolling into them as either character, throwing a barrel at them as either character, or jumping on them as Donkey Kong.
Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest
In Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest (and its semisequel, Donkey Kong Land 2), regular Klumps do not appear. However, the game features similar-looking Kannons. Of Kannon, the game's instruction manual also says "It looks like Klump can shoot!", implying that Kannons are simply just pirate-themed Klumps.
Donkey Kong 64
In Donkey Kong 64, Klumps reappear. The first appearance of a Klump is in the game's opening sequence, wherein the Klump informs King K. Rool that the plan to steal the Kong's Golden Bananas and kindap Diddy, Tiny, Lanky, and Chunky Kong was successful.
In this game, Klumps attack by throwing Orange grenades at the Kongs. Likewise, the only way the Kong's can defeat the Klumps is with Orange grenades. Somewhat humorously, the Klumps have an idle animation where they will eat an Orange grenade, which then explodes in their stomach, although this leaves them unharmed.
