Terrako

, also named the Diminutive Guardian, is a character in.

Characteristics
Terrako is unusually small even compared to Guardian Scouts, being light enough to be picked up and carried around by an average Hylian. It has a distinctive egg-shaped body and a mechanism on the top of its "head" that allows it to communicate through a series of chirps and whistles; though its "speech" is never translated for the player, Zelda and Impa seem to be able to understand it.

In battle, Terrako wields a miniature Guardian Sword and Guardian Axe, much like a Guardian Scout III. Like other Guardians, it is also capable of firing laser beams from its eye.

Most notably, Terrako is able to open portals that allow it and others of its choosing to travel back in time. The exact mechanism as to how it can do so is unknown, but it may be some form of miniaturized Gate of Time.
