A '''Soldier''' is a common enemy and weak enemy that has appeared in both ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'', ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures|Four Swords Adventures]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]''.
Soldiers, also known as Hylian Soldiers or Hyrulean Soldiers, are a recurring group of warriors in the Zelda series. They appear mostly in [[Hyrule]] and serve the [[Royal Family of Hyrule]] by protecting them and their citizens. They also appear, however, in others lands such as [[Termina]] and [[Labrynna]].

In addition to [[Archer]]s and [[Knight (Enemy)|Knights]], there are a variety of color variations and types of Soldiers in ''A Link to the Past''. The weakest of these enemies are the mindless [[Soldier (Enemy)|Green Soldiers]] that will patrol back and forth without making an attempt to attack Link. There are also the more aggressive [[Sword Soldier]]s that will charge towards Link as soon as they spot him.

====Soldier (Gold)====
The Gold Soldiers are not actual enemies, but they are soldiers that have not yet been taken over by [[Agahnim]]'s magic. They have no weapons but wield huge [[Shield]]s. 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. They will tell Link how to use his [[Map]], how to swing his [[Sword]], and how to do other basic functions.

The Soldiers in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]'' can be found predominately in and around [[Hyrule Castle]]. Various soldiers can be found performing different tasks, from guarding the Castle itself, guarding Princess Zelda, or practicing attacks against scarecrows.


Much like in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'', Soldiers come in various sizes and colors. The weakest of these soldiers is the [[Soldier (Enemy)|Green Soldier]], but there are also [[Archer]]s, [[Ball and Chain Trooper|Ball and Chain Soldiers]], and [[Spear Soldier]]s in various areas.  
After [[Yuga]] takes control of Hyrule Castle, the Soldiers are transformed into [[Soldier (Enemy)|enemies]] by his magic.  


In [[Lorule Castle]] there are also counterparts known as [[Lorule Soldier]]s.  
Two Soldiers can also be found throughout the game in [[Kakariko Village]]; one patrolling the Village and another resting at the [[Milk Bar]].
