Soldiers, also known as Hylian Soldiers or Hyrulean Soldiers, are a recurring group of characters in The Legend of Zelda series. They appear mostly in Hyrule and serve the Royal Family of Hyrule by protecting them and their citizens. They also appear in others lands such as Termina and Labrynna.

These are the very first Soldiers that Link encounters in his quest, located on the outskirts of Hyrule Castle. They prevent Link from accessing much of the Overworld, and their primary purpose is to offer Link advice.

Ocarina of Time
Soldiers make an appearance in various parts of the world of Ocarina of Time. They guard Hyrule Castle Town, Hyrule Castle, and parts of Kakariko Village. They are most abundantly found protecting the garden entrance to Hyrule Castle. While most guards will happily partake in conversation with Link, the guards in the Castle Garden will immediately kick Link out if they spot him. Link is able to strategically sneak by the guards due to their poor line of sight. Once Link enters Hyrule Castle, he will have to sneak by the guards or will be kicked out of the Castle.
In Kakariko Village, Link will encounter the Death Mountain Trail Gatekeeper, who will only open the gate once Link shows him Zelda's Letter.
After acquiring the three Spiritual Stones, as well as the Ocarina of Time, Link will find a Wounded Soldier in the Back Alley of Hyrule Castle Town.
When Link becomes an adult, there are no soldiers to be found at all, presumably because they have all been killed when Ganondorf rose to power. The lone Poe Collector from the guard house is implied to be the same guard who patrolled the Guard House near the entrance of Hyrule Castle Town.
