It can stand up to flame attacks!|Bazaar Owner|Ocarina of Time}}</ref> and a shield commonly used by [[Link]] in the 3D ''Zelda'' games.

It's metal and will never burn.|N/A|TP}}</ref><ref>{{cite|You got the Hylian shield! Press Z to defend yourself. It's metal and will never burn.|N/A|TP}}</ref> Throughout the ''Zelda'' games, the Hylian Shield has changed little in terms of overall appearance, always bearing the symbol of the [[Triforce]] and, beneath it, a red [[Hylian Crest]] representing the [[Crimson Loftwing]] that helped Link at the founding of [[Hyrule]].<ref>{{Cite book|quote= Our hero, who rescues the land that will later become Hyrule, rides a red bird. This is why the mark of a bird appears on his shield. However, since the design had already appeared, was this some herald of fate to come? Loftwings are modeled after birds called shoebills, and the idea for their curled tails came from the designer's pet shiba - Hiraoka, designer |book= Hyrule Historia |publisher= Dark Horse Comics|page= 9}}</ref> The first Hylian Shield was a legendary shield guarded by the Thunder Dragon [[Lanayru (Dragon)|Lanayru]], who created a [[Thunder Dragon's Lightning Round|challenge]] to judge whether someone would be worthy of wielding the shield.<ref>{{cite|Yes, yes...

| − | In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', the Hylian Shield can either be purchased or found by [[Young Link]]. Emblazoned with [[Hylian]] artwork, complete with a [[Crimson Loftwing]] and the [[Triforce]], the Hylian shield is much too large for young Link to wield on his arm and functions more like a turtle's shell.<ref>{{cite|My current hot seller is the Hylian Shield, but it might be too big for you, kid.|Bazaar Owner|Ocarina of Time}}</ref> After his seven year sleep, Link became able to use it as his standard shield. |
||
| − | |||
| − | The Hylian Shield becomes almost necessary to survive a visit to the [[Great Fairy]] in [[Death Mountain]], as child Link's 'turtle shell' use of the shield protects from recurrent flaming rock eruptions. It is also not prone to the risk of being burnt by particular fire-borne enemies, such as the [[Fire Keese]].<ref>{{cite|Fire Keese Destroy it before it flies into you! If you don't, its flames will burn up your Deku Shield!|Navi|Ocarina of Time}}</ref> However, the shield can be lost by the shield-eating [[Like Likes]] if Link is swallowed by one.<ref>{{cite|Like Like An enemy that eats shields and certain clothes. Beat it quickly to get your gear back!|Navi|Ocarina of Time}}</ref> Child Link's use of the [[shield]] limits mobility while defending and does not provide as much adequate protection from the front as the Deku Shield (and the Hylian Shield as an adult) and is similarly unable to reflect [[Deku Scrub]] and [[Octorok]] attacks, but it can defend [[Link]] from the [[boulder]]s that rain from [[Death Mountain]]. It is worth noting that the guard at the gates of [[Kakariko Village]] (leading to [[Death Mountain]]) can offer Link a discount in correspondence with the owner of the Bazaar in [[Hyrule Castle Town]].<ref>{{cite|By the way, Mr. Hero... If you're going to climb Death Mountain, you should equip a proper shield! It is an active volcano, after all! If you go back to Hyrule Castle Town Market, you should check out the Bazaar. They sell the shield you need there. Tell 'em I sent you and they should give you a special discount!|Guard|Ocarina of Time}}</ref> If Link speaks to the guard and then attempts to purchase the shield at normal price at the Bazaar in the [[Market]], the shop owner will give Link the discount.<ref>{{Cite|You heard about us from the guard at Death Mountain gate? Well, I have to give you a good deal then!|Bazaar Owner|Ocarina of Time}}</ref> However, a free shield can be found if Link opens a certain grave at night in the [[Kakariko Village Graveyard]]. |

| − | The pedestal on which the avian is perched on is often seen to be the "missing fourth piece" of the [[Triforce]], combined known as the [[Tetraforce]], that completes the triangle. No point in the series has the existence of a fourth piece ever been mentioned, however. This inverted triangle was presumably removed to dismiss the confusion of its such existence. |

| − | [[File:Hylian Shield Icon TP.png|right]]In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'', the Hylian Shield becomes available before entering the [[Goron Mines]] in the newly established [[Malo Mart]].<ref>{{Cite|Hylian Shield: 200 Rupees LIMITED SUPPLY! Don't let them sell out before you buy one!|Malo|TP}}</ref> It can also be bought (for a higher price) from a Goron in Castle Town.<ref>{{Cite|I cannot sell it for as low a price as you might get in Kakariko Village, but for you, I can still make a decent bargain, Brother. Would you want a Hylian shield for 210 Rupees?|Castle Town Goron|TP}}</ref> Its appearance is largely similar to its ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'' incarnation, with some minor design changes. It looks more weathered than before due to prolonged use over time. The metal frame is thinner now, and the numerous rivets are replaced by three large bolts. The Triforce symbol has become smaller, now with metal framing it. In contrast, the Crimson Loftwing is noticeably bigger and takes up the entire bottom half of the shield. The inverted triangle at the bottom has been removed and two metal decals take its place. |

||
| − | The Hylian Shield makes another appearance in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]''. Its design in the beta was largely similar to that of ''Twilight Princess'', albeit with brighter colors more akin to the original ''Ocarina of Time'' design. Some time prior to E3 2011, the design was altered, removing the silver rim around the Triforce and the metal ornamentation beneath the Crimson Loftwing design. As with all shields, the Hylian Shield is controlled by using the Nunchuk: by quickly thrusting the Nunchuk forward, Link will raise his shield and use it to defend himself against enemy attacks. Unlike other shields in the game, the Hylian Shield is indestructible, with its durability bar permanently filled with a glowing blue color to signify this. Unlike its past appearances, the shield cannot be obtained early on in the game, due to the nature of normal shields as potentially temporary items with limited durability. It is the reward from the Thunder Dragon Lanayru's boss battle fights if the player wins eight fights consecutively and then quits. |

| − | While none of the sprites in-game are detailed enough to show the actual shield design, official art for both the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|Super Nintendo]] and [[Game Boy Advance]] versions of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'' depict a shield with similar qualities to the Hylian Shield. |
||

| − | The Triforce symbol is at the top, surrounded by two inverted triangles. Beneath it is a large bejeweled golden bird. |
||

||
| − | [[File:Majora's Mask - Hero Shield.png|100px|right]]In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'', Link starts off with a shield called the [[Hero's Shield]]. The shield has many of the Hylian Shield's features, including the red Hylian eagle, the blue base, the [[Triforce]], and the metal decals. However, the Hero's Shield features a simplified and abstract style in comparison. The bird's head is more hunched, and the shape cannot be seen, but its face is visible. Its wings are also much larger than its body, and point down. The Triforce has moved from above the bird to below it, greatly decreased in size. |
||
| − | |||
| − | This shield also appeared in the SpaceWorld 2001 tech demo for the [[Nintendo GameCube]]. Strangely enough, it is the older incarnation of Link that is wielding it. |

| − | === ''The Wind Waker''=== |
||
| − | [[File:shield.png|left|65px]]''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'' also has a shield dubbed the [[Hero's Shield]]. Its design is even more simplistic than the ''Majora's Mask'' version. The shield is predominantly brown now as opposed to the usual blue. The Triforce is in the very center of the shield. There are long swirls surrounding it as well as three bolts at its corners. A winged creature with horns replaces the bird, but unlike the ''Majora's Mask'' version, it faces up, wings spread out like the original Hylian Shield. |

| − | Link's older incarnation has appeared in all three [[ssb:Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' games]] to date, and has wielded the Hylian Shield and Master Sword in each game. In ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', the shield is identical to the one Link wields in Ocarina of Time. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', he has an updated version of the ''Ocarina of Time'' shield, which remains largely the same. One notable difference is that it takes on a noticeably purple hue, rather than blue. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', Link's Hylian Shield is the one found in ''Twilight Princess.'' When standing still, it can deflect projectiles, like [[arrows]] or bullets. |
