The '''Aracha''' are small, one-eyed infantile [[Moldarach]]s found in the [[Lanayru Mining Facility]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]''. Aracha who have lived for a millenium grow into [[Moldarach]]s. They are arguably the easiest enemy in the game, as they take one sword slash to defeat, and they do less damage than a [[Keese]].
 
 
{{Fi|Aracha|This larval monster is said to live for 1,000 years, during which time it is continually growing.
 
Though the larva is small in size, it is quite ferocious and is often found in swarms beneath the sand.
 
It tends to leap toward moving objects such as yourself.}}
 
 
==Characteristics==
 
Aracha are found on floors of caves and dungeons, in piles of sand when dispersed by the [[Gust Bellows]], and clinging to climbable walls much like the [[Skullwalltula]]. They will leap at [[Link]], or crawl onto him if he encounters them on a wall, and attack while clinging to him until they are thrown off. They can be easily killed with a swipe of the sword or with any projectile, including [[Slingshot]] pellets. One gust of the [[Gust Bellows]] will knock them over and away from Link, although they right themselves quickly.
 
 
Being physically weak, they only make a real threat of any kind to [[Link]] when they appear in large numbers, upon which point they can swarm and surround him, latching on and attacking as a group. It is still unlikely that they will cause much danger even in these situations, however. It is also helpful to use the [[Gust Bellows]] to send them flying, allowing Link to defeat them easily.
 
Large swarms of Aracha are also encountered when battling the dungeon's boss, [[Moldarach]].
 
 
==Trivia==
 
*These creatures greatly resemble the [[Aruroda]] from ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link|The Adventure of Link]]'' in that they're both one-eyed scorpions.
 
*Aracha are also similar to [[Baby Gohma]] from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'' in that they are small, incredibly weak offspring of the dungeon's [[boss]] that are only a danger in large groups.
 
*Unlike real scorpions with eight legs, Aracha has only four.
