− | '''Fire''', along with [[ice]], [[light]] and other elements, has been a staple for [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' franchise]]. Over the course of the decades, fire has served numerous roles in the games, including an environmental role and being an obstacle to beat. |
||
− | |||
− | ==Role in the Series== |
||
− | ===Fire as a symbolic element=== |
||
− | {{Element|Fire}}In various installments from the series, fire is portrayed as part of an elemental triunvirate that encases it along with forest and [[Water (Terrain)|water]], and is present within areas at very high temperatures, such as mountains with volcanoes, and appearing along with [[Zelda Definitions#L|Lava]]. Therefore, people at [[Hyrule]] and other lands built temples and [[dungeons]] that give it a sacred value, one of the most well-known examples being the [[Fire Temple (Ocarina of Time)|Fire Temple]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]''. In addition to representing the element canonically, this temple offers several puzzles, obstacles and enemies revolving around it, and is guarded by the [[Sage]] of Fire (by the moment the events of the game take place, [[Darunia]] fulfills that role, and also guards the [[Medallions#Fire Medallion|Fire Medallion]] until he gives it to Link). The [[Bolero of Fire]] pays homage to the element as well, and instantly transports anyone playing it to [[Death Mountain Crater]], where the temple is located. In the same game, the [[Spiritual Stones#Goron's Ruby|Goron's Ruby]] is also known as the Spiritual Stone of Fire. |
||
− | |||
− | As in the case of the [[Zora]] [[race]] representing water, the [[Goron]]s usually represents this element, due to them living on [[Death Mountain]], near its active volcano. In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'', however, none of them inhabit [[Dragon Roost Island]], and the [[Rito]] tribe has instead a fixation towards wind and sky, like its patron deity [[Valoo]] does. |
||
− | |||
− | ===Fire as an obstacle=== |
||
− | [[File:Rupee Fire.png|150px|thumb|left|This silver [[Rupee]] can only be collected when a switch is pressed to extinguish the fire layer.]] |
||
− | Even in non-fiery zones, it's not uncommon that some spots and treasure chests are surrounded by thin, circular (or hexagonal) layers of fire; these layers are meant to wane only after a designated puzzle or a group of enemies in a zone is conquered, or simply when a switch is pressed. In other circumstances, however, the flames are never meant to disappear, forcing [[Link]] to consider taking an alternate route in order to proceed on his quest. In the aforementioned Fire Temple from ''Ocarina of Time'', as well as in the [[Deku Shrine]] from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'', there are mazes revolving around fire layers that only reveal when the young hero is trying carelessly to bypass a segment. |
||
− | |||
− | [[Lava]] often plays this role as well. There may be fiery gaps that Link cannot cross if he doesn't find a way to nullify the deadly effects of the lava (such as wearing the [[Tunic#Goron Tunic|Goron Tunic]] or transforming into [[Goron Link]]), create a path to overcome it (such as using [[Jar#Water Pot|water jars]] to cool the lava, or making a bridge), or simply overlook it through an alternate route. |
||
− | {{clear}} |
||
− | |||
− | ===Fire as a weapon=== |
||
− | [[File:6_Collection31_Large.jpg|thumb|right|Din's Fire allows Link to attack multiple enemies at once.]] |
||
− | Fire is sometimes on the side of Link as well. There are weapons, such as the [[Fire Rod]], that allow the young hero to shoot fire toward his [[enemies]] from a distance, some of which are particularly weak against it. A more recurring example, however, is the [[Fire Arrow]]s, which (at the expense of some [[Magic Meter|magic]]), are empowered regular [[arrows]] that can be shot with a concentrated amount of fire to inflict extra damage to enemies. With the help of the [[Magic Rod#Book of Magic|Book of Magic]], the [[Magic Rod]] serves a similar purpose as well. Not all fire-based weapons shoot fiery projectiles, however. Some artifacts, like [[Spells of Ocarina of Time#Din's Fire|Din's Fire]] and [[Magic Medallions#Bombos Medallion|Bombos Medallion]], attack through the three dimensions of space. |
||
− | |||
− | On the negative side, some enemies also use fire in their defense. These enemies include [[Bulblin]]s (which shoot Fire Arrows), [[Dodongo]]s and [[Keese#Fire Keese|Fire Keese]]. When Link is fighting them, he must not use any wooden [[shield]], as they are terminally vulnerable to fire. Some enemies also use lava as a refuge against the reach of Link's attacks. |
||
− | |||
− | ===Fire as a puzzle device=== |
||
− | {{Image|image=Deku Stick.png|type=caption|size=100px|align=right|caption=The [[Deku Stick]] is useful for lighting [[torch|torches]].}} |
||
− | In some dungeons and underground areas, there are [[torch|torches]] that must be lit in order to make a [[chest]] appear, a [[door]] open, or something else happen. There are diverse ways to accomplish this: Using a [[lantern]] (''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'', ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'', ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures|Four Swords Adventures]]'', etc.), [[Deku Stick]]s (''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]''), [[Spells of Ocarina of Time#Din's Fire|Din's Fire]], [[Fire Rod]], etc. In nearly all the cases, the torches must be lit before they start turning off, as all of them must be remain lit at a time to render the puzzle or obstacle solved. |
||
− | |||
− | There are instances where fire must be used to melt ice or snow. While this is a common feature in several games in the series, ''Ocarina of Time'' shows a strange variety in the form of the [[Blue Fire]], which is the only one capable of melting the red ice found in [[Ice Cavern]]. Rarer instances of fire usage include making a rock or block rise with lava and killing certain enemies with a source of fire, among others. |
