'''Boarblins''',<ref>''The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening'' Dreamer | '''Boarblins''',<ref>''The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening'' (Nintendo Switch, Dreamer Edition) artbook</ref> also known as '''Pig Warriors'''<ref>''The Legend of Zelda - Link's Awakening'' Player's Guide (Nintendo of America), pg. 96</ref> or simply '''[[Moblin]]s''', are a type of Moblin first found in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening]]''. They are essentially an analog to the Moblins of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past]]'', since the normal Moblins of ''Link's Awakening'' used the previous bulldog design. Like Moblins in the games they appear, they have both spear-throwing and sword-wielding varieties. | ||

They appear as slightly hunched-over humanoid pigs and are not designed exactly like the ''A Link to the Past'' Moblins, notably having pupils and lacking tusks. They are a statistical and graphical swap of Moblins, [[Darknut]]s, and [[Shrouded Stalfos]], which can be demonstrated by swimming between the Tal Tal Heights basin and [[Kanalet Castle]] moat, as a Pig Warrior visibly becomes a Darknut and vice-versa. | ||

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons]]'', the pig-like Moblins now come in red and blue tinted versions, both for sword-wielding and swordless varieties, giving them a total of four variants. They are common in the [[Eastern Suburbs]], with one also appearing on the edge of the [[Woods of Winter]]. Like most enemies, blue ones are most common in the [[Winter]], with red ones appearing more in the other seasons. They work for a giant green one known as the [[Great Moblin]], who has set up a fortress called [[Moblin's Keep]] near the [[Sunken City]] and shoots [[bomb]]s at passerby. When speaking, they tend to make a pig squeal (spelled as "BWEE"). Aside from their role as enemies, getting the [[Strange Flute]] at the [[Subrosian Dance Hall]] will cause an event where they harass [[Dimitri]] and [[Link]] must pay them a total of 80 [[Rupee]]s to leave him alone. After Link has infiltrated and destroyed Moblin's Keep, the Great Moblin and two pig-like Moblins move to a dark house in Sunken city where they try to replenish their destroyed bomb supply. Link can repeatedly use [[Ember Seed]]s to destroy the bombs and the house, forcing them to flee and start over, though after a few times the Moblins will throw Link back inside before they explode, giving a [[Game Over]]. | |||
