Rupee Likes hide under the [[Rupee]]s at the top of their stalks and use it to lure [[Link]]. They come in 3 types: Green, Blues, and Red Rupees. The color of the Rupee indicates how many Rupees they eat at a time from Link. Rupee Likes appear be shorter than a Like Like, not counting their stalks, and can only engulf Link up to his neck. When they have captured the young hero, they hold his head with their stalks.

Malanya is usually calm and refined, though he will occasionally loudly threaten [[Link]] if he believes the hero is mistreating horses;<ref>{{Cite|However... If I detect vile intent behind the death of your horse... <big>You will suffer my wrath!</big>|Malanya|BotW}}</ref> he always follows this up by claiming he was merely jesting, however.<ref>{{Cite|Hahaha, I only jest...|Malanya|BotW}}</ref>
If a Rupee Like engulfs Link, it will suck his Rupees away and continue to do so until he struggles free or if he runs out of Rupees. Rupee Likes are commonly found hiding in a large group of Rupees and are usually found at a corner or the middle of the formation. The Rupees they carry on their stalks are real and can be claimed among the undigested Rupees when they are defeated. Rupee Likes will continue to chase down a Rupeeless Link, though they deal no damage.
 
   
  +
==Trivia==
Rupee Likes in {{PH}} act exactly as in {{TMC}}, but are much larger. Rupee Likes in ''Phantom Hourglass'' can suck Link in like a vacuum from a distance. In {{ALBW}}, they have slightly larger shadows in comparison to normal Rupees. They will always drop a Green Rupee upon defeat, even if the lure is a Red or Blue Rupee, and Link cannot regain Rupees that have been stolen from him.

*Malanya's theme music, which plays in Malanya's Spring after you have paid him 1,000 Rupees, is a combination of the [[Lon Lon Ranch]] theme from {{OoT}} (itself an expanded version of [[Epona's Song]]) and the Great Fairy Fountain music.
   
  +
==Etymology==
A safe way to avoid falling prey to a Rupee Like is to collect free-standing Rupees with items such as the [[Boomerang]] or the [[Gust Jar]].

Template:Character Malanya is a character in Breath of the Wild.

Biography

Malanya is the god who watches over the horses of the world.[1] He makes his home in the Faron Region in Malanya Spring near the Lake of the Horse God, though he has been trapped in a Great Fairy Fountain-like flower bud for a unspecified length of time,[2] and requires 1,000 Rupees to regain his power.[3] Once Link procures the necessary Rupees, Malanya will offer to revive a horse the young hero loves that has died over the course of his journey.[4]

Malanya is usually calm and refined, though he will occasionally loudly threaten Link if he believes the hero is mistreating horses;[5] he always follows this up by claiming he was merely jesting, however.[6]

Trivia

  • Malanya's theme music, which plays in Malanya's Spring after you have paid him 1,000 Rupees, is a combination of the Lon Lon Ranch theme from Ocarina of Time (itself an expanded version of Epona's Song) and the Great Fairy Fountain music.
