- This article is about the enemy also known as a Mini-Moldorm. For the boss Moldorm, see Moldorm (Boss).
Template:Enemy
Moldorms, also known as Mini-Moldorms, are recurring enemies in Template:LZS. Large members of the species have appeared as bosses in A Link to the Past, Link's Awakening, and Four Swords Adventures. Regular Moldorms commonly appear in various caves and dungeons throughout the series, and in some games, have an affinity for sand.
Template:TLoZManual
Characteristics and Weaknesses
The Moldorm is a large, segmented annelid that inhabit dungeons, and otherwise large, enclosed rooms where they can roam about freely. While most Moldorms generally look alike, in Phantom Hourglass and Skyward Sword they appear to embody a more centipede-like look, while in Twilight Princess they tend to look more like Lanmolas or Swamolas. Appearing originally in The Legend of Zelda as simply gigantic worms seen within the labyrinths,[1] they later appear as speedy dungeon protectors known as Mini-Moldorms in A Link to the Past and several titles afterwards.
All Moldorms are ground-dwelling. In Twilight Princess, they live in the ground, jumping from the sand in the Gerudo Desert and Arbiter's Grounds to attack Link. To seek them out, he must Clawshot their shadows, pulling them from the earth and towards him, where he can subsequently attack them. Moldorms in Skyward Sword reside out of sight underground. They are encountered only when Link enters an underground tunnel with the Mogma Mitts. Striking their tail segment with the Mogma Mitts will destroy the rear segments and increase their movement speed, with three strikes required to defeat them.
Moldorms can be defeated with any conventional weapon, usually in one or two hits, although those that appear in Four Swords can take a several strikes until defeated.
Non-Canon Appearances
Link's Crossbow Training
In Link's Crossbow Training, Moldorms appear in the "Gerudo Moldorm: Defender" level of Stage 5.
Etymology
Moldorms are known as Template:Japanese in Japanese. Swamolas are known as Template:Japanese in Japan, just like the Moldorms from The Legend of Zelda. In Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword, Moldorms are known as Moldworms in Japan.
Trivia
- In Oracle of Seasons, outside of Horon Village there is a skeleton said to be of a legendary terror.[citation needed] By using a Mystery Seed on it, Link finds out that the legendary beast is simply a Moldorm.
- In Twilight Princess, after defeating enough of Moldorms in the Gerudo Desert, a larger Moldorm will leap from the sand. This variation must be struck down with two hits instead of one.
