Freezard

Freezards are stationary ice beasts found in Snowpeak Ruins and the Cave of Ordeals. They resemble some kind of large, limbless lizard formed out of ice with multiple red eyes. They can't move, but are able to rotate in place, and they attack by breathing streams of freezing wind. Early in the dungeon, they serve as obstacles more than enemies, because Link can't destroy them with weaponry until he obtains the Ball and Chain. When destroyed, the Freezard shatters into 4-6 Mini Freezards. There are only two ways to destroy a Freezard: 2 hits from the Steel Ball, or a cannon blast. The cannons are deployed around the Ruins and the process of finding cannon balls, loading, and firing them at Freezards serves as the main puzzle in the Ruins before the Steel Ball is aquired, and even after that a few still need to be blasted with a cannon.
