Poe

Poes are ghost-like creatures appearing in multiple Zelda games. Poes served a variety of roles throughout the games. In The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Adult Link can collect Poes in bottles once defeated and take them to a shop in Hyrule where they can be sold. In The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, Poes must be caught in the light to be made tangible and then killed with any weapon. In order to do this, Link must first obtain the Mirror Shield. Poes can also posses Link, causing the controls of the game to flip backwards. In The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Link begins to find Poes after he talks to Jovani, a man from Hyrule who was consumed by greed and turned into a gold statue. He tells Link to find 20 Poe souls to return him to his human form, but when this fails, Link must collect all 60 Poe souls in order to save him. Once this task has been completed, Link can talk to Jovani to get 200 rupees and also talk to Jovani's cat in wolf form to get 200 rupees anytime Link has no money. In order to collect the Poe souls, Link must enter his wolf form and use the wolf's sense to see the Poe and kill it.
