The '''Candleheads''' are enemies that | The '''Kyandokyans''', also known as '''Candocan''' or by the fan-created name '''Candleheads''', are enemies that appear in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages|Oracle of Ages]]''. Kyandokyans are walking, candle-like enemies with wicks on top of their bodies that can be found only in [[Mermaid's Cave]] during the [[Past]] and [[Present]]. When [[Link]] first comes into a room with a Kyandokyan, it looks like it is sleeping, but it stands up shortly after. After moving around a short distance, the Kyandokyan sits down again. Due to this, Link can easily avoid these enemies. If Link comes into contact with a Kyandokyan, it deals one heart of damage. However, he cannot use a [[shield]] to block the enemy and will still take damage. Furthermore, Kyandokyans cannot be defeated with almost every weapon. If Link tries to hit the enemy with his [[sword]], he is ricocheted back like a [[Bumper]]. Similarly, he cannot use the [[Switch Hook]] to switch positions between him and a Kyandokyan. | ||
To defeat Kyandokyans, Link must light the wick on fire by using the [[Seed Shooter]] to bounce an [[Ember Seed]] or a [[Mystery Seed]] that takes on the effect of an Ember Seed.{{Ref|pg. 96|The strange, white creatures are easily dispatched with a carefully aimed Ember Seed.|''[[Nintendo Power Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages Strategy Guide]]''}} Once lit, it begins to run faster than before around the room in diagonal patterns like [[Bombite]]s and [[Bob-omb]]s. After a few seconds, the flame on the wick becomes larger, causing the Kyandokyan to run even faster than before. Following this, the enemy explodes, causing Link one heart of damage if near it.{{Ref|pg. 96|Use the Seed Shooter to light each candle-like enemy's wick, then get out of the way—the creatures will run wildly about until they explode.|'Nintendo Power Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages Strategy Guide''}} | |||
As a result of the Kyandokyans moving very fast, it is best for Link to hide behind an object or create a block by using the [[Cane of Somaria]] to avoid the Kyandokyan coming into contact with him. | |||
