The original appearance of the Stalfos is probably actually the easiest version to defeat as well. They are found right away in Level 1, they deal a half a heart of damage, and only take a few slashes to defeat. They wield two swords and often have keys embedded into their ribcage.

Stalfos in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'' come in multiple variations and colors. Smaller Stalfos come in both Red and Blue and will jump away from Link when he draws near. Some of these Stalfos will toss bones towards Link if he strikes to attack them. The second type comes in the form of [[Stalfos Knight]]s. These skeletons are significantly larger and first appear within the [[Ice Palace]].

Line 72: Line 71:
Stalfos have three main attacks. They will quickly swing one sword horizontally, perform a cross-chop with both swords, or raise both swords above its head in preparation for a powerful two-part attack. The Stalfos is defenseless while its swords are above its head, so this is your chance to run around behind it and slash away. There is also a more powerful version of Stalfos with four arms and more life called [[Stalmaster|Stalmasters]]

A Stalfos is the mini boss of [[Skyview Temple]]. When Link returns for the [[Sacred Water]], three will appear in the room where he fought [[Ghirahim]].

==Non-canon Appearances==
===Link: The Faces of Evil===
These skeleton creatures wield two swords and will try to walk right up to Link, and slash at him with them. The attacks are incredibly slow and are very weak, making the Stalfos one of simplest enemies to defeat in the game. While they don't really travel in packs too often, they do tend to re-spawn. Link jusdt need to slash his sword once at the Stalfos and it will be defeated. Stalfos will almost always leave a single red [[Rupee|ruby]] behind as a reward. They can be found in [[Goronu (Area)|Goronu]] and [[Lupay (Area)|Lupay]].
 
===Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon===
Stalfos can be found patrolling the area of [[Sakado]] and [[Gohiyan Ship]]. They look like and act the same as the did in ''Link: The Faces of Evil''.
