The '''Spellican''' is a [[Dream Eater]] that appears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance]]''. It is a boss that appears in [[Traverse Town]] and [[Symphony of Sorcery]].

 

 

The Dream Eater arrives just as Mickey, as the Sorcerer's Apprentice, is casting a multitude of spells using the power of [[Yen Sid]]'s hat. It enters the musical realm and uses its powers to trap Mickey in an endless nightmare. Sora arrives shortly after and finds that the musical score which grants entry to ''The Sorcerer's Appentice'' part of Symphony of Sorcery has been corrupted by the power of darkness. Mickey asks Sora to enter the world and find a Sound Idea<!--this is a key item and should be linked-->, the only thing capable of cleansing the darkness plaguing the score. Sora brings the Sound Idea to Mickey, the dark barrier is purged when the Sound Idea from Riku's version manifests as the two Sound Ideas form a harmony. Sora then enters the musical score to defeat the Spellican in a strenuous fight, releasing Mickey.

==Strategy==

<!--Tighten this up and use the actual attack names from the Ultimania; each attack description should describe how to dodge or parry the attack.

*'''Dark Orbs''': The Spellican fires Dark orbs at Sora.

*'''Meteor''': Summons a meteor to slow Sora down.

*'''Shooting Star''': Fires stars that home in on Sora.

*'''Light Blade''': Transforms its staff into a lengthy blade of light and swings it around.

*'''Puppet Brooms''': Summons puppet brooms that create lightning or distract Sora.

*'''Meteor Shower''': Summons meteors from the sky.

The battle against the Spellican can take a while, so Sora should go in with either a full Drop Gauge, [[Drop-Me-Not]] commands, or [[Wake-up Block]].

The battle begins along a road of light, on which Sora is sliding to chase down the Spellican. Sora must dodge or destroy the projectiles the Spellican fires while constantly boosting with {{button|dsy}} in order to catch up to the Spellican; once the Spellican is in range, Sora must attack it to force it to the main battle arena.

This area is filled with floating rocks which can be used as stepping stones to perform Flowmotion attacks or navigation, or also as barriers against the Spellican's attacks.

The Spellican frequently warps around the area and attacks by firing stars or transforming its staff into a lengthy blade of light that it will swing wildly. Once the Nightmare has lost most of its health, it will begin summoning meteors after darkening the sky, and may also vanish and replace itself with lightning-slinging magic brooms<!--should this be linked?--> that must be destroyed before it will reappear. On occasion, the Spellican will sweep purple dust balls, which turn into purple Broom-like enemies serve as more of a distraction than a threat. The Spellican can be made to flinch with nearly any of Sora's attacks, interrupting its own attack and opening it up for more attacks from Sora, but once it gets off the attacks they can either be evaded by hiding behind the rocks or parried with [[Counter Rush]]. After enough time passes, or after taking enough damage, the Spellican will take Sora with it back to the celestial road, where he will need to chase it down again in order to continue the battle.
