Masked Jungle Warrior: Odolwa is the boss of Woodfall Temple of Majora's Mask. Link can find Bombs along the edge of the wide open area to aid him in the battle.
Odolwa possesses a variety of attacks, including moths and other insects, which can be killed for recovery hearts. His main attacks are to spin his sword quickly with great range which, can be difficult to avoid, and a downward slash. He defends himself with a shield, mostly attacking with a large sword. Odolwa also creates a ring of fire around Link periodically, which makes his spin attack much harder to avoid.
The methods in defeating him are diverse. The bomb flowers in the room, blast mask, or bombs can be used, and your sword when he is stunned. An easy method for stunning him involves shooting him with an arrow while he is dancing or summoning his moth friends. If you try during his other attacks he may simply block with his shield. Once stunned, close in and slash his knees for as long as you can. The Deku Mask is an option as well, since his insect friends leave Deku Link alone, allowing you to use the yellow deku flower in Odolwa's defeat. The only problem is his fire attacks when in Deku form, which will effectively kill Link.
When defeated, Odolwa will be reduced to Odolwa's Remains, which Link collects along with a Heart Container. After the battle, Link is transported to a mysterious, dream-like location where he meets the Swamp Giant and learns the Oath to Order. Also after his defeat, Link is transported to a new room and if you cut the vines you will find the Deku Princess. You do not have to bring her home in a bottle unless you wish to, but it is required to do so for the Mask of Scents.
