Boe

Boes are fuzzy, partially transparent enemies in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. They take the form of a small, monochrome sphere with two glowing orange eyes. Depending on the environment, they appear as either Black Boes or White Boes, with the former appearing in dark places starting with Woodfall Temple and the latter being unique to the icy Snowhead region. White Boes appear slightly larger than Black Boes, though this does not affect how they function.

When Link approaches their spawning points, their bodies suddenly fade into existence, usually blending in with their surroundings. After this, their eyes appear, and they begin noisily shuffling around. Black Boes are also sometimes found in broken pots and White Boes sometimes fall like large snowflakes. Boes attack by shuffling after Link in large groups and jumping at him while making distinct chittering noises.

They are quite weak and are defeated after one hit, with most of the trouble from them coming from their numbers. Usually, defeated Boes do not respawn, but a particular room in Stone Tower Temple infinitely spawns Black Boes. The only time both types of Boes are seen together is in a cave in the thawed Mountain Village.
