'''Papahl''' is the father of the [[Quadruplet Family]] in [[Mabe Village]]. Appearing in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]'', he trades you the [[Hibiscus]] for the [[Pineapple]], in [[Tal Tal Mountain Range]].
The '''Old Man''' is the title given to several characters serving different functions, appearing in ''[[The Legend of Zelda (Game)|The Legend of Zelda]]'', ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link|The Adventure of Link]]'', ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]], ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages|Oracle of Ages]]'', and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons|Oracle of Seasons]]''.
 
 
== ''The Legend of Zelda'' ==
 
[[File:OldManSprite.png|left]]In ''[[The Legend of Zelda (Game)|The Legend of Zelda]]'', there are several old men across [[Hyrule]], each serving various needs, such as supplying [[Link]] with his first [[sword]], or giving helpful hints regarding enemies such as the [[Dodongo]]. Many helpful items can be obtained from these old men, and a mini-game can be played with them called the [[Money Making Game]]. Sometimes however, they will take Link's money for "door repair" upon entering one of their hidden caves. If he is found in dungeons and is stabbed, the torches around him will fire energy blasts at Link, similar to those of a [[Stone Statue]].
 
 
== ''The Adventure of Link'' ==
 
In ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link|The Adventure of Link]]'', there are several old men residing in many of the towns. These old men teach Link useful [[Spells of The Adventure of Link|spells]] once he has achieved the necessary prerequisites. These spells are required for access to the next area that Link must travel to.
 
 
== ''A Link to the Past'' ==
 
[[File:Zelda3-37.gif|frame|left]]
 
A single old man appears in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'' when Link first enters [[Death Mountain]]. He is quite lost and is missing his lantern. He asks Link to aid him in getting to the safe house on the top of the mountain outside the caves. Once the way is lit by the light of Link's [[Lantern]], the old man helps guide him to the top.
 
 
For helping him, the old man rewards Link with the [[Magic Mirror]]. He will also aid Link anytime whenever he comes to his safe house by refilling his life energy. While leading him through the mountain, the old man will talk about how he has a daughter who was abducted by the wizard [[Agahnim]], as a part of his plan to break the sages seal. This reveals that the daughter is a [[Sage|maiden]], and she and her father are both descendants of the ancient sages.
 
 
== ''Oracle of Ages & Seasons'' ==
 
In the ''Oracle'' series, Old Men appear in caves that Link finds using the [[shovel]] or by burning trees using [[Mystical Seeds#Ember Seeds|Ember Seed]]s. Some bribe Link not to tell anybody about their secret caves by giving him a large sum of Rupees (usually 300 or so). Others thank him for paying his door and take Link's money. One Old Man also appears in the [[Hero's Cave]] of a linked ''Oracle of Seasons'' game.
