Reapling
Reaplings are undead enemies encountered on the Ghost Ship in The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass, implied by the youngest Cubus Sister to be those who have died after boarding. They wear a purple robe, carry a scythe, and have a skull-like face. Behaviorally, they are almost identical to Phantoms.
In the game, Reaplings move back and forth in a set route continuously. They cannot be defeated, but Link can stun them temporarily if he shoots an arrow in their back using his bow. If a Reapling hits Link, he loses two hearts. Reaplings can pass through walls and also see through them unless Link is on a safe zone. If Link is with a Cubus Sister and she screams, a Reapling goes to where she screamed at. In one part, a Cubus Sister said that the Reaplings in the Ghost Ship should have scared Link.
Trivia
- If the player is using a cheating device, Link can be equipped with the Phantom Sword earlier in the game and defeat Reaplings with it.
- Reapling may have had a closer resemblance to Phantoms earlier in development, as it is known as TartnackD in the game files ("Tartnack" being a romanization of the Japanese name for Darknut, which is the label used for the types of Phantom. Additionally, despite the late identifier, Reaplings are actually encountered before all non-standard Phantom varieties).
