Command (Ability)

Command is Link's ability to take control of another character, fisrt appearing in. A mixture between direct and indirect control of secondary characters can be exercised when Link is transporting with the help of another character.

He can attack with the Bow or the Sword from this position. Various other characters in the series, including Ricky, Moosh, Dimitri, and Kargaroks can be controlled in a similar way.
