Fire Keese
Fire Keese are a variation of the standard Zelda enemies, the Keese. They are basically the same thing, the only difference is a Fire Keese is incased with fire, therefore harming Link upon contact. They can be found in seven Zelda games: Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, The Wind Waker, Twilight Princess, Phantom Hourglass, Spirit Tracks and Skyward Sword.
Appearances
A Link to the Past
While very similar to the Fire Keese, the Blazing Bats are seen in A Link to the Past and are summoned by Ganon in the battle againest Link for the Triforce.
Link's Awakening
Like previously, while not known as the Fire Keese, the Blazing Bats play the same role as the previous game in Link's Awakening where they are summoned by Nightmare's Ganon form.
Ocarina of Time
Fire Keese |
Fire Keese make their first debut in Ocarina of Time and can be found in Dodongo's Cavern and the Fire Temple. If they attack Link, their fire will go out, and they can dive into another torch to light up again. They will burn up Link's Deku Shield.
Majora's Mask
Don't tell me you don't know about |
Fire Keese act the same as Ocarina of Time.
Oracle of Ages/Seasons
Fire Keese appear in the Skull Dungeon and Sword & Shield Maze in Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons, respectively. Due to their higher flight path, Roc's Feather or Roc's Cape may be necessary for Link to defeat Fire Keese.
The Wind Waker
Fire Keese behave as in most previous games. They appear in Dragon Roost Cavern and various areas in the Great Sea.
Twilight Princess
Fire Keese in Twilight Princess appear fairly often. They can be found in the Goron Mines, and in some dark caverns that can be accessed in the overworld. They are easily defeated with a swing of Link's sword. Like in Ocarina of Time, if Link has the Ordon Shield or the Wooden Shield equiped when he gets hit by them, it will burn up and he will lose it. This won't happen with the Hylian Shield.
Phantom Hourglass
Fire Keese are first encountered in the Temple of Fire and must be defeated with a ranged weapon such as the Bow or Boomerang.
Spirit Tracks
Fire Keese must be defeated with a ranged weapon such as the Bow, Boomerang or Whip. Fire Keese respawn infinitely by some fire pits.
Skyward Sword
Fire Keese are a fiery variety of Keese and act similarly to their ordinary counterparts. If they get too close, they will burn Link and damage his Wooden Shield.
