Deeler

The Deeler is a spider-like enemy that showers Link in threads of spiderweb, found only in The Adventure of Link. It can most easily be slain by inducing it to fall by running past and then hailing it with arrows, but a sword will work as well. This enemy will stay concealed on the ceiling until Link, (or any non-monster traveler for that matter), comes wandering by. Once the unwary prey comes beneath it, the Deeler will let webs fall on the passer-by and then drop down to finish the victim. If Link is caught in a Deeler's webs he must break out and slash the arachnid twice to kill it. The blue variety of Deelers is stronger, taking four hits before falling.
