'''Gibdos''' are mummified humanoids commonly found as enemies. Gibdos are generally quite durable and powerful and have been depicted with a multitude of unusual abilities, though they are also generally extremely slow. Due to their wraps, they are commonly weak to fire, and when they are burned they will sometimes regress into a different corpse-based enemy, such as [[Stalfos]] or [[ReDead]], depending on the game.

Gibdos first appear in ''[[The Legend of Zelda (video game)|The Legend of Zelda]]'', where they are first found in [[Lizard]], the 5th [[Labyrinth]]. Unlike many enemies, they lack recoil from being hit with the [[sword]], and can visibly carry items within them, such as [[key]]s and [[bomb]]s.
Gibdos first appear in ''[[The Legend of Zelda (video game)|The Legend of Zelda]]'', where they are first found in [[Lizard]], the 5th [[labyrinth]]. They act essentially as a more powerful version of Stalfos from [[Eagle|the first labyrinth]], and like them, they can visibly carry items within them, such as [[Small Key|key]]s and [[bomb]]s. However, they do not shoot [[sword beam]]s in the [[Second Quest]].

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past]]'', Gibdos are found in [[Skull Woods]]. Here, they resemble Stalfos with bandages and skin, and are found wandering the rooms aimlessly. They are still quite powerful, but they are weak to the [[Fire Rod]], which defeats them quickly. Of note for this game is that both the manual and the Player's Guide use the term "Gibdos" in the context of both singular and plural, unlike other games.

====''The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time''====
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time]]'', Gibdos are first found in the [[Bottom of the Well]] and are later in the [[Dark Palace|Shadow Temple]]. They are either found standing upright or within sarcophagi; in the latter situation, they rise if a nearby torch is lit. Gibdos act much like ReDeads in this game, in that they have paralyzing screams, will cling to and bite [[Link]], are temporarily stunned by the [[Sun's Song]], will burn for a while if caught on fire, and will be defeated with two hits from a fiery weapon. Unlike ReDeads, they are not distracted when others are defeated. When they are defeated, they drop [[Magic Jar]]s of either size.

Gibdos act much like ReDeads in this game, in that they have paralyzing screams, will cling to and bite [[Link]], and are temporarily stunned by the [[Sun's Song]]. Unlike ReDeads, Gibdos are much more active, and will pursue him even if he is not paralyzed. They are very slow to turn, however, so if he gets behind one, he will be open to attack it. However, they usually appear in groups of two or more. Like ReDeads, they will burn for a while if caught on fire, and will be defeated with two hits from a fiery weapon. When they are defeated, they drop [[magic bottle]]s of either size.


====''The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask''====
====''The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask''====
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask]]'', Gibdos appear prominently in [[Ikana Canyon]], primarily [[Beneath the Well]], where it is said anyone who enters to claim [[Mirror Shield|its treasure]] will be cursed to become a Gibdo (likely a reference to written "curses" on Egyptian tombs). They initially appear circling around the [[Music Box House]] of [[Pamela]] and [[Pamela's father|her researcher father]], trying to get to the latter. He had previously been studying Gibdos and became one himself when he tried to enter the well. To save him, Link needs to defeat [[Sharp]] in the [[Spring Water Cave]], allowing the water to run and turn the wheel on the house, thus playing a carnival-style song called "[[Farewell to Gibdos]]," which makes the Gibdos go underground. Link can then play the [[Song of Healing]] for him, restoring him and granting Link the [[Gibdo's Mask]], which allows him to speak to Gibdos.

Inside the well, the Gibdos will request the masked Link to give them varying items using obtuse hints. Most of the items can be kept within [[empty bottle]]s, and most are also found somewhere in the well. Once given to them, each Gibdo will tell Link that they "bear [him] no remorse" before disappearing into the ground.

In both ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages]]'', Gibdos retain their appearance and behavior from ''The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening''. When burned, they become orange Stalfos, which can throw bones. In the former game, they debut in [[Unicorn's Cave]], and in the latter game, the [[Skull Dungeon]].

They can perform two attacks, and their eyes brightly glow before performing either. They can quickly charge across the room or throw their bandages, which can temporarily paralyze a Link.

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures]]'', Gibdos are found in the [[Desert of Mystery|Desert of Doubt]], where they are once again top-heavy, now with glowing red eyes. They appear with either tan or gray bandages. Once again, they do not flinch when attacked, though they make gasping moans. When one of the tan ones is defeated, their bandages will come apart to reveal a Stalfos, which is then transported to the [[Dark World]]. However, the gray ones inside the [[pyramid]] are simply destroyed.

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap]]'', Gibdos are found in the [[Royal Family's Tomb|Royal Crypt]], [[Palace of Winds]], and [[Dark Hyrule Castle]]. They resemble their ''Four Swords'' incarnation but are larger and with blue eyes. Like in the first game, they can visibly hold keys and bombs. If one gets close enough to Link, it will wrap its bandages around him and start draining his health, but he can escape with enough movement. If burned with the [[lantern]], they become a blue Stalfos.

In ''[[Zelda's Adventure]]'', Gibdos are first found in the [[Shrine of Destiny]]. Like most enemies in the game, they simply wander aimlessly. They take many hits to defeat but do two hearts worth of damage to Zelda on contact, making them quite dangerous, especially in groups. In one room, a [[Jack]] will spawn for each of its three Gibdos that are defeated.

===''Hyrule Warriors''===
In ''[[Hyrule Warriors]]'', Gibdos use their ''Twilight Princess'' design. They also have a fiery version called [[ReDead Knight]] in English as a nod to the name in the ''Twilight Princess'' Player's Guide. Both versions act the same, but with varying amounts of strength. They can shot their paralyzing screams forward or in a small area around them, both marked with a white wind-like effect. They can also spit purple poison, and in later versions of the game conjure up an area of poison around them. After all non-sword-based attacks except the spitting attack, they will be open to stronger attacks against them. The area-of-poison attack leaves them open to certain items as they prepare it.

Gibdos again appear in ''[[Cadence of Hyrule: Crypt of the NecroDancer featuring The Legend of Zelda]]'', where they have large heads and small bodies and come in white, green, and black. They have four hit points and move towards the player character every four beats, based on the Golem enemy from the original ''{{wp|Crypt of the Necrodancer}}'', but smaller. ReDeads share this behavior, but grab the player character as well. Hitting a Gibdo with a fire attack turns it into a ReDead.
