The Dwarf is an effect NPC found in Candle World. His appearance is of a colorful gnome carrying a sword. He constantly runs to the east at the same speed that Madotsuki moves with the Bicycle effect, so is tricky to catch without either the Bicycle or Stoplight effects. If the player blocks his path, he will simply stand still, making this the easiest way to catch him.
Interacting with him gives the player the Midget effect.
While running, he passes a purple pyramid which leads to the Checkered Tile Path. He can be killed with the Knife effect and reacts normally to the Cat effect. Though he is quite fast, with the Bike, Madotsuki can catch him due to him occasionally changing direction, as the world loops around continuously. His footsteps produce a sound effect that can be heard across all of Candle World.
