Template:Character-infobox Poobah the Pharaoh (often referred to as simply "Pharaoh") was the ruler of an ancient desert kingdom in Wario: Master of Disguise.
History
Long ago, Poobah was a greedy king who despite his wealth, desired to make one wish. Willing to pay any cost, he called a demon into his world. She was known as Terrormisu. The conditions for granting his wish were simple: he would have to starve his people to appease her. He agreed and set to the task of doing so, but soon he discovered that demons are not to be trusted. She stole everything he had and reduced his kingdom to rubble. His palace was transformed into a pyramid and sunk beneath the sand. Afterwards, the first Cannoli later sealed Terrormisu into the Wishstone and scattered the fragments. One piece was said to be placed in the pyramid with Poobah himself and eventually the legend was distorted to the point that the story told that Poobah had used the Wishstone to make his wish.
For centuries he waited, with his chambers being guarded by his royal gatekeeper. His years in solitude seemed to have driven him into madness, as he was prone to fits of giggling when speaking to others.
After Sneezemore Cave, Wario arrives in Poobah's pyramid, which had been buried over 5,000 years ago. After going through the pyramid, Wario finds the undead pharaoh and fights him. After being defeated he confesses to Wario that he doesn't have the piece of the Wishstone. Despite that, Poobah is confident in Wario's ability to collect the Wishstones and defeat Terrormisu, and creates a portal to send Wario to the Ancient Waterworks to continue his search.
In-game description
A physical embodiment of the long-dead desert king. Cold, uncaring historical types yearn to plunder his tomb and take his things for their "research".
