Keeleon
Keeleons are recurring Enemies in The Legend of Zelda series.[1]
Characteristics
A Link Between Worlds
In A Link Between Worlds, Keeleons float in the air and attack by spitting Bombs at Link. They cannot be defeated with the Sword, as they float too high for it to reach. Instead, Keeleons must be defeated by either using the Fire Rod, Ice Rod, or by throwing Bombs.
Tri Force Heroes
In Tri Force Heroes, Keeleons can be attacked with the Sword by having the Links form a Totem to reach them. This may either require a Totem of two or three depending on how high a Keeleon is floating. They can also be reached with the Water Rod, which will stun them as well. Keeleons mainly appear in the Riverside and Ice Cavern Areas of the Drablands.
Several variants appear in the Den of Trials. In addition to Fire Keeleons in the Scorching and Frozen Zones, dark Keeleons appear in the Fortified and Baneful Zones, which attack with blasts of dark magic that harm and Curse the Links. A regular-looking Keeleon in the Flooded Zone attacks by spitting Spikes instead of Bombs.
Nomenclature
"Keeleon" is likely a corruption of "Clione", a type of sea angel with a similar appearance. Its model file in the data of Tri Force Heroes is called "Clione", and its Japanese name, ネオリーク, is the reverse spelling of クリーオネ (Clione).
