Daira

Daira were crocodilian enemies in Zelda II: The Adventure of Link and in A Link to the Past. They weilded axes, which they threw at Link with surprisingly exceptional accuracy. The strength at which they were thrown was also incredible, with the axes being able to slice right through some solid shields.

In A Link to the Past, Daira advanced from simply thowing axes at Link to directly attacking him. Also, Daira developed into two colors: red and blue, the red one being stronger and requiring more hits.
