'''Jarvis, the Jar Collector''', is an antique jar collecting ghost of unknown age. Apparently, Jarvis loves jars so much, he now lives inside one. But he can hardly contain himself. Luigi first discovered Jarvis in the [[Ceramics Studio]] on the second floor of [[Luigi's Mansion (place)|Luigi's Mansion]]. Although Luigi did not need to capture Jarvis to save [[Mario|his brother]], the green-clad plumber could earn a [[Blue Diamond]] and two [[Gold Bar]] if he bested the portrait ghost in combat.

After entering studio, Luigi quickly explored the jar-filled room. After examining the area around the far wall, Jarvis appeared from one of the jars and challenged Luigi to a ''[[Wikipedia:Whac-A-Mole|Whac-A-Mole]]''-style game. If Luigi could hit Jarvis with blasts of ice seven times, the jar collecting ghost would allow the hero to fight him. After collecting an [[Ice Elemental Ghost]], Luigi shot icy mist at Jarvis as the ghost warped to different jars around the room. After seven hits, Jarvis was ready for the real test to begin.

Jarvis, the Jar Collector is an antique jar-collecting portrait ghost of unknown age in Luigi's Mansion and its Nintendo 3DS version. He is a purple ghost with only a head, a little hair, yellow eyes and big lips. Jarvis speaks in a stereotypical Scottish accent. Jarvis is said to love jars so much that it is the reason he lives inside one. His portrait number in the Gallery is 12.

Jarvis is encountered in the Ceramics Studio, on the third floor of Luigi's Mansion. Although Luigi does not need to capture Jarvis to save Mario, he can earn a Blue Diamond and two Gold Bars if he succeeds in capturing him. After Luigi examines the area around the far left wall, Jarvis appears from one of the jars and challenges Luigi to a Whac-A-Mole-style game. If Luigi can hit Jarvis with blasts of ice seven times as he warps to different jars around the room, the ghost allows Luigi to fight him. If Luigi fails to hit Jarvis seven times, he gets teleported outside of the Armory. Angered by losing the game, Jarvis levitates ceramic jars and tosses them at Luigi, dealing five HP damage for every hit. Luigi can counter by sucking up Jarvis with the Poltergust 3000, while trying to not hit the floating jars, otherwise Jarvis will escape the Poltergust's pull.
