Revision as of 19:41, 22 September 2012

King Of Thieves is a ZFGC community project managed by some people. Someone more knowledgeable about this should finish writing this article.

Specific information can be found either in the main category or in the list of KOT articles.

Game Design

The Player

Combat

Sword

The sword will not be given a dedicated button, but function just as any other item in its button assignment. Pressing the sword multiple times will not slash in the same way over and over, but Link's attacks will take place in three hit combos. The combo may be modified later in the game through the sword master. From the sword master, Link may learn special moves, similar to how sword techniques were taught in Twilight Princess or Minish Cap.

Roll attack

Pressing the sword button between the middle and end of a roll allows Link to use the roll attack. Link uses the momentum from the roll to slide along the ground, thrusting his sword. This may be able to penetrate some enemies defenses.

Sword Beam

Link may shoot a beam from his sword while he's at full health or less than 3 hearts. The sword beam does half the amount of damage a sword slash does.

Shield

Shield attack

Pressing R while holding the shield uses the shield attack. Knocks back most enemies, and with some specific ones, lowers their defenses.

Roc's Cape

Down Thrust

Can be learned after the Roc's cape is acquired. While in the air, Press the sword button to initiate a down thrust. Landing directly on top of an enemy will do lots of damage, and landing close will damage them as well as the attack has a very small shockwave effect. If Link misses an enemy, his sword will become lodged in the ground and take a second to remove.

Pursuit Slash

Link can learn this attack after he possesses the Roc's Cape, or maybe the shadow cloak. Immediately after an enemy has been knocked back, Link can press the cape (Roc's or Shadow, whichever we decide) to quickly maneuver behind it, dealing another attack or combo.

Thief Abilities

Barrel Ambush

When Link is sneaking around inside a barrel, he can press the sword button to shatter the barrel and jump out, surprising the enemy with an ambush attack!

Races

Location: Hyrule

The descendents of the Hylia and the natural heirs to Hyrule. The Hylians have split themselves into a proletariat vs. bourgeoisie type of world, all due to their greed. During the Gerudo-Hylian war, 4 nobles came together with a member of each race to banish Lord Ganondorf to the Sacred Realm. The Celestial Clock was thereby constructed as a middle ground between the two dimensions to prevent Ganondorf from obtaining the Triforce while imprisoned.

Goron

Location

Goron Mountain

Description

The proud citizens of the mountains. They are known throughout Hyrule for their mastery of steam-based technology and smithing skills. Struck by a deadly flesh and bone rotting disease, they have hidden themselves deep within the carbon mines of the mountain. The cogs were constructed by the ancient leaders of this race.

Link's Quest

Link arrives on Goron Mountain to find all the Gorons suffering from a tooth-rotting disease. Mining operations and production of manufactured good have stopped completely, and all the Gorons merely sit around on the mountain, weakened from malnutrition and depressed since they can't do basically anything.

Link finds the Goron Elder, Gor Indigneo, ensconced back in his chambers. Upon entering, he is angry to see a mere Hylian has gotten in, and demands what Link wants. Upon hearing Link wants to search for the Earth Cog, Gor Indigneo gets even angrier. He explains the problems the Gorons have: their teeth have been rotting ever since they discovered the Violet Ore, his people are weak because they can't chew rocks, they have to eat mud soup made from mushy ore mined down the mountain. My people are eating mush! There's no calcium in mush! The Gorons are strong people, and maybe could get through this, but the worst thing of all is that the Gorons are all so depressed they're beginning to give up hope that anything will ever get better. The last thing we need is some Hylian trying to find some ancient artifact when we're trying to deal with our own problems! I can't help you until my people's happiness is restored! Guards, take him away! The Guards rise slowly, pause for a moment, then sit back down, too weak to do anything. "See what I mean? Get out of here!" the elder screeches.

Link wanders around the city, and talking to the Gorons, two or three mention that they miss the old days, before there were problems, when the simple pleasures were watching a good Goron wrestling match. The old wrestling arena sits decrepit and decaying.

Link can find an old wrench hidden somewhere around the Goron settlement. If he brings this to the Chief Smith in the Goron forge, he will recognize it as his favorite wrench, which he lost years ago. He thanks Link for bringing it to him, and says he sees Link is a pretty handy fella. Maybe Link, just maybe, is the person to fulfill the Chief Smith's dream- of restoring the wrestling arena. He'll give Link four or five bolts, and tell Link to patch up the failing supports.

The wrestling arena is actually suspended above a canyon. It is anchored in four or six places, on different levels. Link must use his agility to climb to the places where the supports are failing, and attach bolts. The last touch is tightening the chains that wind around the ring and serve as railings.

After fixing up the arena, some Gorons around town, including the Chief Smith, will notice, and mention that they miss the old Champion Wrestler, who moved out of town after losing his strength to the Violet Ore disease. Link explores the mountain, and following a winding trail, he finds the home of the old Champion (I'm just gonna call him Champ for now). He spends his time throwing small rocks (he can't lift heavy ones) at a nearby rock wasp hive that's been bothering him for a few weeks. He won't talk to Link, saying that he's too busy to talk to small fries.

The hive is inaccessible by foot, but Link can shoot a nearby bomb flower, which will explode and destroy the rock wasp hive. After this, Champ will talk to Link, with a small amount respect. Champ calls Link smart guy, commenting that maybe Link doesn't have brawn, but he does have brains. What? Go back to wrestling? Look smart guy, maybe you didn't hear, but all the Gorons are weak, weak, weak. We don't get the nutrients we need from mush soup. Anyway, the arena is falling apart. If Link has restored the arena by this point, Champ will think about it for a minute. "Well, maybe it would cheer my brothers up... Alright, I'll do it. But you've gotta fight me."

If Link agrees, the player will find himself in the arena, facing Champ. All the Gorons have gathered around to watch. All the buttons only make Link punch (which is probably just the sword animation without the blade), but he can still use agility moves. Champ is actually pretty fast, but not as fast as Link. He will block any punches Link throws at his front and counter. If Link stands still, Champ will punch at him. If Link can get behind Champ and hit his back three times, Champ will sit down and surrender. If Champ hits Link three times, Link will loose.

Whoever wins, Link and Champ stand facing each other outside the arena. Champ tells Link that was the best match he's had in many years, Link is pretty fast. All the others Gorons will cheer, saying that it was fantastic to see another match. Look, Champ is still fighting even though he's sick. Maybe we can all fight! We're all still champions!

Link goes to see Gor Indigneo again. He admits that he's heard everybody loved Link's fight with Champ. So is this what you do? You help others to serve your own ends? Well, I do know where the cog is. We left it deep in the Violet Mines before they were shut down. I'll send word for Gumbo, who has the keys to the minecarts, to let you go there.

In the dungeon, Link encounters Maple again. They find themselves together in the boss room when they're attacked. Working together, Link and Maple take the boss out. Afterwards, Maple swoops in to grab the cog, but then pauses. She realizes that before, she never would have had the courage to face that monster. She's grown a lot, even without getting any cogs. She doesn't immediately hand the cog over to Link, though. She gathers a vial of Venom from the boss, and using the cog's power, she synthesizes an antidote for the Goron's tooth rot disease. She gives it to Link, then goes back to Syrup to finish her witch training.

Link brings the antidote to the elder, who gives it to all the Gorons and cures them. The elder admits that maybe getting help from other people is a good thing, and the Gorons actually need it from time to time. He reminds Link to make sure he gets help when he needs it too.

Zora

Location

KOT:Zora’s Domain

Description

The traders of Hyrule, they have been responsible for maintaining the water passageways. They house their cog in the Lake Hylia Temple ,their most sacred grounds. They are stuck in a conflict with the River Zolas, who have kidnapped the heirs and invaded Lake Hylia

Link's Quest

Heading back to Hyrule Town after finishing up in the Deku Swamp, Link goes to meet with the Gerudo King, who tells Link he's discovered that the rest of the cogs are with the Zora, Gorons, and the king says that the final one is kept by the Hylian royal family.

Link, after the Zora and Goron cogs, heads out of the castle, but is caught by guards on the way out. Before he is thrown in the dungeon, however, Zelda happens by and recognizes him. She has Link sent out of the castle instead of imprisoned, but guards now block the path Link has been using the get into the castle/visit Ganon.

On his way out of the town, Link happens across a Deku Merchant, whose goods were stolen by a band of traveling Zola. In the field, Link finds the Zola and fights them. He loses, but the Zola abandon the fight and goods when they hear that, "hostages have been taken."

Returning the Deku Merchant's goods, he will lower the price of his flippers, allowing Link to buy them and access the river valley of the Zora. In the Zora's town, Link finds the everyone panicked, as their leaders have been kidnapped by the Zola and taken to forts along the river.

Either sneaking or battling his way into the forts, Link rescues the prince, princess, and King Zora. The Zola flee their forts after their defeat, opening the path into Lake Hylia.

At Lake Hylia, Link meets a man named Sheldon, who is studying the ancient mechanisms that dot the lake shore. Upon investigating one, Link is attacked by Maple, taking a more active role now in deterring Link. She is bested and flies off, but during the fight the mechanism was broken.

Sheldon sets about repairing it, while Link goes to find the rest. He activates each one, and returning to Sheldon, they activate the last one, which raises the entrance of the ancient Lakebed temple. Link approaches it, and overhears Maple talking with the Hero's shade. She goes into the temple, and the shade speaks to Link, warning him to avoid tampering with things he doesn't understand or he could bring the lives of everyone in Hyrule to an end.

Regardless of the hero's warning, Link enters the temple, claiming the water cog and advancing his quest.

On his way out of the river valley, Link is attacked by the remnant of the Zola, wanting revenge for their defeat. However, before Link can fight, the prince and princess of the Zora arrive and defeat the Zola. They share with Link that his courage inspired them to become stronger and take action to decide the course of their lives. They give him the Zora seal, an object signifying the friendship of the Zora people. This item will evoke different reactions from Zora characters Link meets now.

Link heads back toward Hyrule town...

Deku

Location

Deku Swamp

Description

The Deku Kingdom is an irrational tribe that resides in the core of the swamp. Their paranoid and hasty nature make them appear as hostile to most outsiders. They protect the Kokiri Cog, which is hidden deep in the Forest Temple.

Current Tragedy

The swamp, once a thriving environment, is now plagued by poisons. The core of the poison is a monster releasing spores into the forest, creating vile creatures and turning innocent Deku Scrubs into vicious Mad Scrubs.

In his paranoia, the Deku King tried to protect himself and the kingdom from the spores. His efforts were futile however and he was exposed to the monster's spores, causing him to act mad. He has sealed up the palace and is ordering the guards to ignore the swamp monsters and just protect him.

The Deku are outraged by this and demand a new king, although some remain loyal. However nobody can do anything since the palace is locked up. The Deku village isn't currently affected by the fungi, but is close to infection.

Link's Quest

Link will be tasked with destroying small growths of fungus in and around the Deku Palace.

After he has done enough to help the Deku, he will return to the village to find that many of the Deku are missing and the palace is unlocked. Nooku and Roiko are found asleep on the job. Inside, he encounters Maple, who found a map to the cog. She says, "oops, looks like I left the gate open!" Link finds the Deku have stormed the throne room and are demanding that the king be sacrificed to the Kokiri spirits to appease them.

Link is surrounded by Deku who consider sacrificing him, although those who he helped are on his side. Suddenly, the wall is torn down and swamp monsters swarm in and attack. Link must fight them off and destroy a fungal shoot that had been growing on the palace wall, thereby gaining the trust of the Deku. The prince, inspired by Link's bravery, takes control of the situation. He orders the Deku Butler to grant Link access to the Kokiri forest, along with a gift for his assistance: The boomerang!

Gerudo

Gerudo concept art

Hyrule’s very own band of master thieves. Dragged into a war with the rest of Hyrule centuries ago by their late leader, Lord Ganondorf, they are now banished to the harsh life of the desert. Not a single Gerudo has been seen outside of the desert since the war until recently, when Link's future master met with the Royal Family.

Location: Gerudo Desert

Sheikah

Location

Valley of Death

Description

Residing in a series of temples throughout the Valley of Death, they are the rivals of the Gerudo. Their elders reside in the highest parts of the the temples and are rarely seen on a normal basis. They have countless books and literature on the history of Hyrule and are the most knowledgeable about the world, magic, and combat. The elders are the only ones in all of Hyrule other than Ganondorf who are familiar with the ancient Hylian Language, far different from the modern dialect.

Link's Quest

Shiekah are met first, and initially present themselves as pompous and arrogant. He meets with the elders, however they obviously won't let Link anywhere near the cog since they know to protect it. They also think that there is no danger in Hyrule, since the Gerudo are still kept out.

As Link approaches the desert, The Hero's Ghost confronts and fights him. Link is defeated, but escapes into the desert when he throws a dud Deku Nut to the ground. As the Hero rushes to finish Link, the Deku Nut goes off and Link falls backwards into a sewage pipe leading into the Desert. The Hero elects to not finish him.

In the desert, Link is captured by the Gerudo. The Gerudo initially seem beat-down by the Shiekah, and Link sympathizes. He meets with Abigail after escaping and sneaking into her quarters and they work out a deal. He'll help them because he likes helping people, and because helping them attack the shiekah will allow him to get close to the cog.

Link is to prove his worth by going to one of the major Shiekah outposts, long abandoned. Fighting his way through traps and creatures, he finds the Fire and Ice Arrows, left there by the Shiekah. He brings them back and turns them over to the Gerudo. Abigail explains to Link that the Fire and Ice arrows were designed by the Shiekah and are used as a key on many locks in their fortress. They begin preparing to storm the fortress.

Link is given the task of gathering some weapons from the storehouses. Inside one of the houses is a treasure chest belonging to a high ranking Gerudo. It contains a note. The note is from Abigail herself and it detailed the attack against the Shiekah. It also contained the horrible things that the Gerudo were planning to do with the Shiekah once they were defeated.

With his mind now torn and conflicted, he decides to go to the Shiekah Fortress just to see what was going on. Just before he leaves, he is attacked by the Gerudo he stole from.

Link defeats her in battle and quickly goes to the Shiekah Fortress, which he finds under attack by the Gerudo. Fighting his way through both Gerudo and Shiekah, he sees Abigail heading for Seere. He chases her through the fortress eventually to a path leading to the temple. Using Fire and Ice arrows, Abigail and Link are able to unlock a number of doors leading through parts of the fortress that haven't been opened for years, some parts crawling with Redead.

If you helped more Gerudo, then the elder will call upon his body guards, and Abigail will say, ha, it seems they've busy losing the battle. Or in the other case, the elder will say, oh so you came alone? Or did all your reinforcements lose to my warriors? Either way, they'll start to fight, and Abigail will shoot a fire arrow Link's way, burning down the path to get to them to interfere.

Only one path remains for Link, which is in the direction of the Temple entrance. When he gets there, he is confronted by Seere. He talks to Link, saying that he's seen him in visions. He might bring great destruction, or salvation- only the path of shadow will show the truth: and he opens the gate to the shadow temple, and pushes Link in- initiating the first battle with the boss, which Link can't destroy, but can fend him off.

Then when Link beats the boss and comes back out of the temple, Seere is standing at the temple's entrance, looking down on the battlefield. Whoever's side you helped more, that leader (Abigail or the elder) has just defeated the other in battle. Their second-in-command is talking to them. Seere explains the situation to Link:

[Whichever] has been defeated, but both sides suffered so much loss that the Shiekah can't hold the desert pass, but the Gerudo can't advance anymore and are retreating. The Shiekah city/fortress is in ruins. Seere says something like "I don't blame you for this, you just added a spark into years and years of kindling. In fact, I'm still not sure whether you're destroying Hyrule or bringing about the healing we've been needing for ages. But that's just me- these guys, they definitely think you're to blame." And several Shiekah warriors jump into the scene. Link has to escape the ruined Shiekah fortress to lose them.

Enemies

Armored Crab

Location

Appear in watery areas such as Lake Hylia and its dungeon. They are a semi-rare creature at the lake, and more common within the dungeon.

Description

Appearance

A crab-like enemy that is a bit larger than an Octoroc. It has 2 large pincers of equal size and 4 legs. Its outer shell is spiky and brown, but its inner body is smooth and pink.

Behavior

Armored Crabs normally scuttle side to side within a small area, stopping for a second when reaching the end of their path. When Link draws near, they will become much more aggressive, actively pursuing Link as long as he stays within their comfort zone. Contact with one deals .5 HP and pushes Link back mildly, but it often leaves him within their range of attack.

The other ability Armored Crabs employ is to spit explosive rocks a short distance, which they do after pursuing Link for 4 seconds. The crab pauses for a brief moment before spitting, giving Link a chance to evade or get out of the crab's range of attack. These will explode after 5 seconds on their own, but Link may also carry and throw these rocks, in which case they will explode on impact.

Like many armored enemies, Link has to first destroy the outer shell by using explosives, either with the Armored Crab's explosive rocks or with bombs. It only takes a single explosion to destroy the shell, but it can be difficult to land a hit on one that is already chasing Link. After getting rid of its shell, Link can defeat the Armored Crab with a single hit from any weapon.

If Link has the Roc's cape, he can use a down thrust to flip over a crab, stunning it for several seconds. However, this only works if he lands next to it using the shockwave, as the hard shell will protect it from a direct attack. When the shell is destroyed, both a direct hit and the shockwave will defeat the crab outright.

Armored Crabs normally drop a small heart when defeated, but after Link has acquired bombs, they will always drop bombs if Link has not maximized his supply.

Attacks

Explosive Rock

A longed ranged explosive rock that deals 1.5HP. The explosions are the same size as a bomb's

Behavior

They live in the depths of the mountain. They live in walls of carbon-based rocks and come out to attack the player by rolling around. Unfortunately, they're kind of stupid and don't think about where they're rolling before they do it. This typically leads to them rolling off of edges or into a lava pit. When they leave the wall, they leave behind a hole which may contain treasures or act as a doorway. They are 100% invincible to all weapons. However the wind and water cogs can slow down or even reverse their roll. The only way to rid yourself of them is to roll them into a trap, or into each other.

Location

Rare enemies in the Deku Swamp, and semi-rare in the Forest Temple

Description

Appearance

A skinny, bipedal lizard wielding 2 axes that is the height of a grown man. The only armor they have is a small chestplate, otherwise their green skin is exposed.

Behavior

Lizalfos wander around a small area with no particular route. When Link approaches one, they will immediately engage him. They run faster than Link, making it difficult to escape once a fight starts.

After taking damage, there is a 33% chance a Lizalfos will hop back a short distance. This hop does not go high enough into the air to work as a true dodge, and it’s possible (though difficult) to damage it mid-hop.

They are affected by all weapons and items.

Attacks

Both attacks can be blocked with any shield.

Simple axe swing, dealing .5 hp.

2-Slash Combo

A combo with each axe in succession. Both hits deal .5 HP, but there is a noticeable wind-up time to the attack as the Lizalfos raises its axes. If Link blocks or evades the first hit, there is actually enough time in between the hits for him to counter-attack!

Mad Scrub

Location

Deku Swamp, Kokiri Forest, Forest Temple and a few in Hyrule field

Description

Appearance

They have a large orange and yellow leaf cap as if the fall is whithering them. In the leafs there are some spots and streaks of purple showing where the rot has reached the outside. Although they have yellowish mouth and eyes, the rest of the body has turn completely black and purple. The nuts they shoot are brown with a purple center.

Behavior

These were once normal Deku Scrubs but they got in touch with a poison that was spilled in a part of their swamp. Instead of killing them the poison started to rot them from the inside out. It drove them mad and put the Deku's natural paranoia into overdrive. They no longer differentiate friends from foes and attack indiscriminately and with vigor. They hide in the ground waiting for others to approach before attacking.

They are hidden in the ground as long as the player is further than a maximum distance. Once the player is lower then the maximum distance and further then the minimum distance away, they come out of the ground and start shooting nuts (with timed breaks in between) at the player. Once the player is closer then the minimum distance they go back into hiding and they swing the Leaf Blade, which has the reach of the minimum distance and is further then a short range weapon. The madness makes them also immune to stunning. If the player creates a shadow clone within maximum range the scrub will be focused on that and will not dive back in the ground if the player reaches minimum range.

The player can defeat the Scrubs by deflecting their nuts back at them. Using a projectile weapon, because the minimum distance is further than a handheld weapon would reach. A handheld weapon can be used if the scrub is distracted by a shadow clone.

Attacks

Nut Spit

.5HP on player, and 2HP on Mab Scrub spits out a nut at Link when he is in range (Damage .5HP on player, and 2HP on Mab Scrub).

Leaf Blade

Mighty Darknut

Location

Earth Temple, Final Dungeon

Description

Appearance

A Heavily Armored Knight, it carries a sword and shield. Each Darknut is a swordmaster with decades of training before they are given objectives or tasks. Design from MC.

Behavior

The Mighty Darknut Has authority over all normal darknuts.

A Bomb Stuns Him.
Melee Weapons and Projectile weapons, except Bombs, can only affect the darknut by hitting it from behind or it's sides.
Fire Arrows and Ice Arrows don't need to hit it from behind in order to effect the Darknut.
Shield Bash is ineffective unless it's about to slash or stab you.
If you use Arrows, a Boomerang, or the Hookshot, while it has it's shield, if its from the front, it will block the ranged attacks with it's shield.
If you use your shield when it's about to hit you, you get pushed back 2 squares, and there's a 50% chance of it dropping it's weapon for to pick up in battle.
- Exceptions
  - A rolling stab knocks it back, When he's about to attack you can use the pursuit slash to counter it. A downward thrust knocks his helmet off allowing for you to stun it with a boomerang, and it it allows you to shoot it w/ arrows.
  - A Boomerang stuns him.
  - Hookshot stuns him.
  - If you stab him from behind twice his armor falls off.
  - If you use the magnetic gloves when he's about to shield bash you, the darknut's shield is removed; disabling it's shield bash attack.

Here's the armor pieces and anything removable:

Chest Plate(Main body armor, basic Frontal protection)
Gauntlets(One on each arm, Protects the sides)
Helmet(Not needed to be removed in order to kill it, Protects his head, obviously)
Shield(Also Not needed to be removed in order to kill, Advanced Frontal protection)
Sword(A weapon, not armor, but hell you can make him drop it, so it's removable)
Cape(Not armor, Just a single hit to remove, Weak protection of the back)

As I said in the design submission magnet glove is able to remove metallic objects, I didn't say this in the submission though: You can remove the sword(will resist, so ends up being a small tug of war) and the shield(will resist, so ends up being a small tug of war) each separately, cape has to be cut off to be removed, gauntlets can be removed by magnet glove after being loosened(Is loosened by being hit). Chest Plate can be removed right after you quickly hit it twice to loosen it, or after you remove his cape to loosen the armor. Darknuts would wear Basic Chain mail under their armor.

There are only 3 pieces of armor, the helmet, and cape don't count since they are optional. The Shield is optional as well. The sword is a weapon, so only the chest plate and the gauntlets affect overall health, since they must be removed in order to be able to damage the darknut.

The Cape is removed by being cut(optional, this also loosens the chest plate)
The Armor pieces must be loosened to be removed by the magnet gloves.
The helmet can be knocked off with a downward thrust(Optional)
Sword & Shield Don't have to be removed(So it's optional)

Attacks

Unarmed Attack

1.25 HP Must be Unarmed. It uses arm thrusts or punches you.

Weapon Attack

1.5 HP Requires Weapon. It stabs or slashes at link. The Darknut pauses for a moment after this attack.

Behavior

As guards, the Moblins will chase after Link once they've spotted him. Their attention can also be drawn by the player entering combat nearby, something such as a jar breaking nearby, or an npc dying nearby. This can be used to sneak passed them. In addition, barrels can be used to avoid them by walking around alla WW. If they spot the barrel moving, they will pursue it to check for the player. The Barrel ambush works well in this situation.

Boomerang dazes them for 3 seconds, but this does not count as a distraction to sneak. Hookshot has no effect on armored variation. Unarmored will take a small amount of damage and move towards the direction of the player to find them. arrows have no effect on armored variation. Unarmored will take a small amount of damage. Fire and Ice arrows however, will light up or freeze either variation. The flame especially makes for a great distraction (it goes up like a beacon, might as well be 4th of July). Shadow clones draw their attention, but alert them that the player is present. The cloak itself does not make you invisible to them, as they can smell you. A bomb planted next to one will cause them to run for their dear lives. The explosion knocks them back.

Attacks

Octoroc

Location

All along the river, Lake Hylia, Lake Hylia Temple

Description

Appearance

Purple in color with a large spiral shell over their head. They have 8 tentacles At the base of their body. Their giant eyes allow them to have a large field of view, allowing them to see the player even from the side.

Behavior

They like to sneak up on unsuspecting travelers and then blast them with rocks. They usually just try to annoy the hell out of those passing by, but do get aggressive from time to time.

All projectile weapons are able to kill them. The exception is the boomerang which stuns, and the ice arrow which freezes them into a block to use as as stepping stone. Roc's Cape must be used to jump to it. When the player approaches, they hide underwater. This forces the player to have to use projectiles.

Attacks

Rock Spit

.5HP to player, 1HP to self (2HP with properly timed bash) Spits out a rock that can be reflected with a shield bash. The bash will reflect the same distance regardless of the timing. However, a carefully timed bash will result in a faster reflection, dealing twice as much damage.

Overgrown Keese

Location

Any place Dark, like caves or the overworld during the night time. Each Overgrown Keese has it's own territory and may share it's lair with another Keese. In each of their "Territories" there is only one lair, It's lair usually has ruppies or other rare items. There is a larger lair that holds more of them than usual, that holds a heart piece and is only accesable by being carried by them. The other lairs are situated on cliffs, hills, or mountains that will require thief techniques to get to, like using ledges and climbing up walls.

Description

Appearance

A 4-foot tall black bat.

Behavior

Attack anything that moves or has something shiny attached to it. It is fond of shiny objects.

A benefit of entering a Lair without them seeing you or carrying you will allow you to surprise them and you'll have a little more time to get ready to fight them. If they carry you in, you have a little less time to prepare. During the daytime you'll find them napping in their lairs which once you get close to them or brake something in the lair they'll wake up and get ready to attack.

Damage - The Player can use projectile base weapons to damage it and knock it out of the sky, When they swoop down to attack link, you can use a melee weapon to damage it and knock it down as well.

Stun - The Boomerang and hookshot can stun it in midair and it falls as well. When they swoop down, you can also use a shield bash to knock them to the ground.

Combat Notes - You can only hit it with a melee weapon, or the shield when it's in the swooping animation or if it's stunned. Ranged weapons harm it and or stun it.(which looks like it falls to the ground)

Attacks

Swoop

1 Hp if he knocks you down. It swoops at you and there's a 50% chance he'll grab you, if he doesn't grab you he just knocks you over. Grabbing the player won't damage the player unless the bat drops the player into a pit.(Which mostly will happen when the player hits the overgrown keese while it's carrying the player.)When it grabs you it'll take you to it's lair, But It will not grab you unless you're outside and have a light or something shiny equiped, but it'll still attack you either way.

An Ice arrow Temporarily Freezes it, turning it into a pushable ice block.
When it is non-solid or phasing, it's lantern is its only weak point. if the lantern is hit twice it falls and makes a small fire on the ground.
the Thieve Bracelet Cog Abilities could effect it.(I'll look up their abilities)
- Cog Effects:
  - Shadow Cog, allows yo to take control of it for a short time, allowing you to see what's up ahead. It slowly drains magic(Depending on how much you move, Idle magic consumption rate is lower than the Movement Consumption rate.) The effect lasts for a good 15 seconds Maximum(Idle) and 10 Seconds Minimal(Movement), (Also ends if it runs out faster.)
  - Forest Cog, it blows the Poe away.
  - Water Cog, it soaks the Poe and it's standing there trying to get the water out of it's cloak. You are able to attack during this time. Once it's dry it'll be pissed and start moving around faster, you'll also see a red anger mark on his head, and some steam will be coming off of his head. He's pissed for about 5-10 seconds.
  - Earth Cog, Prevents it from attacking link by blocking it.

Attacks

Rock Wasp

Location

Goron Mountain

Description

Appearance

They are Wasps completely covered in tan stone, with a volatile chemical inside. they are about the size of a small cat.

Behavior

They attack anything other than other fellow rock wasps. They Live in Hives in the Goron Mountains, and are a frequent nuisance for Gorons. This might be a decent side quest to eliminate a certain hive, that could serve as a Mini-Dungeon.

They usually end up circling their targets a couple times before ramming into then. On Goron Mountain they attack in swarms of 5-7 and they come out of small hives that can be burned, smashed, blown up, or slashed so no more spawned out of the hive. In the Hive Mini-Dungeon, They would attack in groups of 2 or three, and randomly appear, with a minimal of a minute before more show up.

The Sword slash causes it to rupture, but the sword swipe knocks it back just far enough so you don't get hit with the blast.
Using the shield Idly will cause you to be safe from the blast, but it pushes you back.
A Shield Bash smashes sends them flying and causes them to smash while they are being flung.
The Bomb cannon Blows them up in the bomb explosion radius.
The Hookshot is ineffective against them.
The Boomerang stuns it.

Attacks

Kamikaze Explosion

Rope

Locations

Caves and dungeons ( the higher the dHP the higher the dungeon). Green ones can also be found outdoors in the field and yellow ones can be found in the desert.

Description

Appearance

They are your regular snake enemies as they appear in any 2D Zelda game and especially MC. The most basic rope is green of color with a red belly. There are three other colors, but they are essentially the same enemy just a bit more health: 1) Reb skin and blue belly (2x HP), 2) Blue skin and yellow belly (3x HP), and 3) Yellow skin and green belly (4x HP).

Behavior

They move either horizontal or vertical around an area. They move at a normal pace, but when Link is in direct line of sight the rope will dash at double speed towards Link until it hits an obstacle or Link. Direct line of sight means on the same horizontal tile row or vertical tile column and the rope is facing towards Link.

Weapons have their normal effect on ropes.

Attacks

Bump

When Link physically hits these creatures he will sustain damage. (Damage 0.25)

Sand Glider

Location

Gerudo Desert

Description

Appearance

These creatures are tan fish-like creatures with a pair of wing-like fins, that lives in the sand of the desert. They have feathery gills, and have a eel-like tail.

Behavior

These may not be hostile, but if you attack them, they will fight back. They will not stray from the desert, because they die when removed from the desert for some reason. , if they are startled they jump out of the ground and start gliding away. Their scales are made of a conductor, and are use by Gerudo as quick transport around the desert.

You can use all items on it to damage it when it's out of the ground, but only they do half damage.
When it jumps out of the sand, if your next to it, there will be an action prompt to grab it, it will then glide in a random direction. If you use magnetic gloves you can attach to it and control the direction it's in and you can use it's divebomb attack to attack desert dwelling creatures. While it's gliding, if it gets close to a city, the edge of the desert, or is going to run into a rock formation, it will dive into the ground leaving link stuck at the surface, with his head stuck in the sand. After a certain amount of time it will flap it's "wings" rapidly and then dive into the ground leaving link stuck at the surface as well. While your on it you can jump off of it using the action button, which can help you get to higher places within the desert.

Attacks

Dive Bomb

1 HP This attack is only used when it's enraged. It dives down and rams link then swoops back up.

Shadow Guard

Location

Shadow Guards appear exclusively in the Sheikah Dungeon

Description

Appearance

Shadow Guards appear as pitch-black versions of Hylian soldiers with glowing red eyes. The eyes can be seen through their body when facing north. When outside of a light-source, they have a red aura-like outline around their entire body.

Behavior

Shadow Guards only appear in dark rooms. They patrol a set route around the room, completely ignoring Link as long as he is within a light source. When Link steps out of a light source, it will pursue him at the same speed of a Hylian soldier in alert mode.

Shadow Guards tend to appear alone in a room, though as Link progresses through the dungeon there can be several rooms containing 2 or even 3 to deal with at once. They will stop chasing Link as soon as he enters a light source. Their patrol routes tend to pass by at least one light source, but not directly through it.

How to Defeat: Shadow Guards are normally immune to any attack other than fire arrows, but they become vulnerable to all attacks when within a light source. If Link activates a light source when a shadow guard is within its range, it will immediately try to escape the light, making it difficult to damage them through this method. However, Shadow Guards are defeated in 1 hit regardless of which method is used to defeat them.

Shadow Guards drop several small hearts if defeated within a light source, or a large magic potion if Link successfully snipes one with a fire arrow through the dark.

Attacks

Sword Slash

Upon reaching Link they will perform a simple sword attack that deals 2.5 HP. This attack can be blocked with the shield.

Shadow Keese

Sheikah Dungeon, Celestial Clock

Description

Appearance

Small skeletal bat creatures similar to those in MC, though these ones are always releasing black smoke.

Behavior

Description: These are bat like creatures that like the darkest of places, and are only found in the Sheikah Temple and the Last Dungeon. They are not particularly strong or though to defeat. Their strength lies in numbers as they there is always more than one Keese in a room.

They move around from one spot to the next in a bit of an irregular pattern. The never really fly in a straight line. Except when really close to the player, they will make a straight line towards him, before continuing to the destination spot. There they will sit still for a while and start the pattern again. Defeating: Just hit them with any weapon you have, even the boomerang kills them.

Attacks

Bump

1 HP

Shiekah Warrior

Location

Shiekah Temple

Description

Appearance

These are Shiekah that have been sealed inside of their own temple, cursed by the raging beast inside of it.

Behavior

Several weapons can be used, but they will dodge many of the attacks if not brute forced. Therefore, the sword is the best option (similar to the Stalfos in lttp that would jump back when you attack them). Arrows can be dodged easily if there's enough distance and the boomerang and hookshot are useless. Bombs can be useful if planted properly. It's also possible to corner them to defeat them. Magic from the Sea and Kokiri cogs can also be useful in disorienting them.

Attacks

Slide kick

Slides 4x16px tiles to the player in a kick. Knocks the player back and does 1.5HP. Can be blocked or shield bashed. Shield bashing will result in some humor.

Punch/Kick

Close range attack dealing .5HP, but can attack in succession.

Dodge

Has a 30% chance of dodging sword attacks and a 70% chance of dodging arrows. Drops to 20% if in close range.

Stalfos

Location

Various places

Description

Appearance

Based loosely on the OoT design, but without a shield.

Behavior

Knights of Ganondorf's army long dead and gone. Only their bones, armor and hatred for the world remain. Although cold and heartless (pun intended), they have utmost respect for battle and will not gang up on an opponent. They will wait their turn for their partner(s) to fall before entering battle. They wield a single sword. They can only be damaged by the steel of a sword, although the boomerang proves effective in confusing them for a moment.

Attacks

Slash

1.5HP A basic sword slash that can be blocked by the shield. If the player shield bashes this, it will knock the Stalfos back.

Dash slash

2HP Takes a slight dash forward and slashes at the end of it. If the player is caught in the dash, they're dragged back by it. Can be blocked by the shield, shield bash is useless.

Stalfos Elite

Location

Not sure yet...more rare than the Stalfos Knight however.

Description

Appearance

Slightly larger than the Stalfos Knight and wields 2 swords.

Behavior

The highest ranked Stalfos. They do not come alone and are usually in command of 2 Stalfos Knights. Should the knights fall, this will take over the battle. They wield 2 swords. Each time they take 1HP of damage, one of their arms takes damage (2HP == useless arm). When they've lost half their health, they use Regenerate to reclaim their damaged arms. As with the Stalfos Knights, only a sword may damage them. The boomerang is ineffective - They may just smack it back at you.

Bombing the Elite itself when it's missing an arm at the right moment is the only time a weapon other than the sword will work. It will do 2x damage than a sword attack. If a downed arm itself is bombed, the Stalfos will be distracted for 2 seconds.

Attacks

Slash

2HP A basic sword slash that can be blocked by the shield. If the player shield bashes this, it will knock the Stalfos back.

Parry Slash

2.5HP The stalfos' swords will glow brightly. During this time, attacking will result in a counter parry. If the player is quick enough, this can be shield bashed or countered with the pursuit slash.

Appearance

Small tan bat creatures similar to those in MC, though these ones are always pulsing electricity.

Behavior

Locations

Caves, dungeons and dungeon like interiors. (starting from the Sheikiah Temple) Also in places of the dead.

Description

Appearance

It follows the MC design. Garbed in cloth and have a pointed hat that is dimming and lighting up all the time. Their faces are mostly invisible except for two white blinking eyes. Their dark clawed hands are only visible when raised to the sky. This variation has yellow as its primary color and they look electrified.

Behavior

These are some weird witches that are made of residual magic from long ago. Wrapped in cloth and with pointed hats, they scare any passerby. These creatures can suddenly appear on your path. They specialize in electric magic and are the most deadly of the wizzrobes. When there is only one it appears on either the vertical height or horizontal width at a random distance that Link is on. With multiple wizzrobes (variations) one or two will position themselves on the same horizontal width or vertical height as the player, while the rest take a strategically back up position.

When they appear they unleash a lightning bolt in the horizontal or vertical direction of Link (depending on his position). They linger for a while before they disappear again. They stay gone for a random (between 5- 10 second) amount of time. Unlike the MC design they appear and dissapear in a puff of smoke. The more damage they receive shorter the time is that they linger before disappearing and shorter the time is that they appear again. Defeating: Weapons have their normal effect on wizzrobes. The fire and ice arrows have no effect at all. A shadow clone has only 50% chances of distracting them. You can use the magnet gloves to shield yourself from the lightning magic attack (no matter the direction or polarity), however this does leave you open to other attacks. You will need to hold the magnetic gloves out for the entire duration of the attack.

Obtained	Side quest
Damage rate	2x Gerudo Sword

The Noble Sword is an optional blade Link can find through a side quest, available after the second dungeon. Does twice as much damage as the Gerudo Sword and is capable of smashing pots and shooting beams.

Pickups

The following are items that can, in most cases, be found and picked up at any time during the game.

Arrows

Found once you have the bow, can be used to shoot targets from afar. Picking up one bundle of arrows icon refills 5 arrows in your quiver.

Bombs

Found once you have the bomb cannon. Used as ammo for the bomb cannon. One bomb icon on the map replenishes 5 bombs.

Hearts

Pick up a heart to replenish one heart of health. Their rarity will depend on how difficult the enemies are, to balance it.

Magic Jars

Small green bottles that replenish an increment of your magic meter. Small jars replenish an eighth. big magic jars replenish it all. Rarity would depend on how many items use magic, and how necessary they are, but fairly uncommon. Rooms with puzzles requiring magic would have pots that have magic jars in them.

Rupees

Increments found randomly: 1, 5, and 20. Randomly finding a 20 is extremely rare, and those and increments higher than that are reserved for rewards.

Secret Seashells

Found quite rarely, and sometimes as puzzle rewards. They are saved up for no apparent purpose until you find that they can be traded to upgrade some equipment in a secret out of the way seashell mansion type place.

Roc's Cape

Roc's Cape
Type	Utility
Obtained	Sword Master sidequest

Usage

Pressing the button will cause Link to jump. If no direction button is pressed, he will stay in place. If a direction arrow is being pressed, he will move at the same speed and direction as if he were walking, but in the air, avoiding enemies and holes. Tapping the button allows for a jump that, at walking speeds, will jump over one tile. Holding the button after pressing it will allow Link to glide, bypassing four tiles and landing on a fifth.

Shadow Cloak

Shadow Medallion
Type	Equipment (Active)
Obtained	Sheikah dungeon

Pressing the assigned button toggles on/off the medallion. Holding the button for a couple seconds while you’re using it creates a shell of yourself that is left behind in the spot you created it. The shell dissipates when you press the action button or if you stop using the medallion. The shell can be used to hold down switches, and perhaps other uses. The shell can be destroyed when exposed to direct beams of light, from the sun or light type attacks.

While using the medallion, illusions become obvious. Spikes or blocks that aren't real will have some kind of visual effect, and will be passable while the shadow medallion is used. Some invisible paths will become visible as well. Using the medallion consumes your magic.

Thief Bracers

Thief Bracers
Type	Equipment (Active)
Obtained	KOT:Hyrule Castle Town

Usage

Pressing the button next to certain locks allows you to pick them. Pressing the button when adjacent to but not in front of an NPCl will pickpocket them. When you press the button in the appropriate spot, a meter will pop up and an arrow will rise from the bottom to the top. The button must be pressed a second time right as the arrow reaches the top to pickpocket or pick a lock. Pressing the button prematurely or late results in failure, and in the case of pickpocketing, the notice of your victim. The arrow will move at different speeds depending on the difficulty of the pick lock/pocket.

Cogs

Each of the cogs can be individually equipped to the bracers, and using the bracers next to locks then would allow you to pick special locks which correspond to the type of cog equipped (I.e., you could pick wooden locks, stone locks, locks... involving water, etc.) Using the bracers away from a lock with cogs equipped will result in that cog’s special attack:

Wooden Shield

Wooden Shield

Type	Shield
Obtained	Starter shield
