Force Soldier

are an enemy introduced in Four Swords Adventures. Rare instances of a visible Force Gem approached by the Links will surprisingly become a sentient enemy and frantically attack any or all Links nearby. Their basic appearance is that of a large green Force Gem wielding a sword and shield. As expected, they defend and attack as capable swordsmen. Upon defeating one, a large green Force Gem valued at 100 will appear as a spoil of the battle. However, of the Links do not defeat these foes fast enough, the Force Gem Knights will commit suicide by exploding, thus robbing the Links of their prize of 100 Force Gems.

The deceptive appearance of an obtainable gem is not unique to this enemy. Rupee Likes and Force Gem Likes are other enemies employing the sham.
