Stalchild

Stalchildren are presumably younger Stalfos and they appear in most of the 3D console Zelda games. They are not much a threat alone, but can be a nuisance to Link when they attack in groups, as they usually do.

Appearances

Ocarina of Time

		Stalchild Don't be afraid of the Stalchild! Just attack it repeatedly!

Stalchildren haunt the nights of Hyrule Field when Link is a child in Ocarina of Time. They attack by swinging small punches at Link. A bigger one will appear after a while. They, especially the giant ones, will reward Link with Rupees and are a good source of them.

Majora's Mask

		It's a Stalchild. They were the cursed soldiers of the Kingdom of Ikana...What are you gonna do?

In Majora's Mask, Stalchildren are found in Ikana Graveyard and the Oceanside Spider House and attack almost exactly as they do in Ocarina of Time. They can be spoken to and given orders with the Captain's Hat.

Enemy: Stalkin
Attacks: Spear (quarter-heart)
