Deadrock

Deadrock are enemies that appear in A Link to the Past and Four Swords Adventures.

Appearances

A Link to the Past

Deadrock first appear when Link makes it to Death Mountain within the Light World. They will move back and forth rapidly, with their primary form of attack being to simply run into Link. When they are first encountered, Deadrocks cannot be defeated by usual methods. Any attack from Link's Fighter's Sword will cause the Deadrock to turn into a stunned statue momentarily. While in this form, Link cannot defeat the enemy, but it will at least stop moving, along Link to move around it.

The only way to defeat these creatures early on in the game is to use Magic Powder on them. Sprinkling powder on the enemies will cause them to turn into Slime, in which they can then be defeated by an assortment of weapons.
