Candle

Template:Weapon The candle is an item found only in The Legend of Zelda and The Adventure of Link to date. In both games the candle is used to light dark rooms. In The Legend of Zelda it can also be used as a weapon. By pressing the item button when equipped Link will shoot a flame two spaces in front of him. The flame deals the same damage as the Wooden Sword and can burn bushes that reveal secrets.

The blue candle, the first one obtained in the game, can be bought for 60 rupees and can only be used once until you move to a different screen. The Red Candle, an upgraded version of the Blue Candle, can be used infinitely on one screen but you can only shoot two flames at a time. If you have the Magic Book the Magic Rod will shoot a beam that turns into fire when it hits an enemy or a wall, essentially making the candle useless.
