 This article is about a Phantom in Kamen Rider Wizard.
|
Gnome (ノーム, Nōmu) is a Phantom born from within an unnamed sommelier when he gave in to despair. His Gate target is scam artist Manami Kawasaki (川崎 愛美, Kawasaki Manami).
History[]
At first, Wizard's Hurricane Style was able to overpower the Phantom, but before Wizard can attack again, Gnome travels underground to escape. He then kidnapped Manami, but thanks to Wizard's Drill Ring, he was able to burrow underground to reach the Phantom. Gnome called more Ghouls to attack Wizard, but they are easily defeated. The Gnome Phantom then creates a cave-in to escape again.
He then destroyed Manami's family photos, but it doesn't make her despair. Gnome then fight Wizard, and thanks Wizard's Flame Style's Defend Ring to protect him from Gnome's attack, but the Phantom escapes again. Knowing Manami's true source of hope, he then burns down Manami's house that she used to live in with her family. But, thanks to Wizard's Water Style, which succeeded in extinguishing the fire, Gnome's plan was foiled.
The Phantom then fights Wizard's Water Style, though trying escape once more, Wizard changes to Land Style and use the Big Ring to bring out the Gnome Phantom from underground. He then fight Wizard once again and the magician ends up using the Smell Ring to ruin the Phantom's sense of smell. Wizard then use the Kick Strike Ring and Drill Ring combination to end the Gnome Phantom's career.
