Geldarm is a strange bug that makes its home in the deserts of [[Hyrule]]. It stays low to the ground until their prey draws near. It will extend its long body segment out of the ground and attempts to capture whatever comes by<ref>"Found in the Desert, Geldarms are tall swaying enemies who keep their bodies hydrated by drinking the blood of other life forms." — ([http://zelda.com/universe/pedia/g.jsp The Great Hyrule Encyclopedia]).</ref>. It can emerge out of the ground randomly to hurt its enemy. Geldarm also can attack by spitting small stones towards its enemy.
