Hylian Shield



The traditional shield of the Nintendo 64 Zelda games. The Hylian shield can either be purchased or found by Young Link in Ocarina of Time. Emblazoned with Hylian artwork, complete with an eagle and the Triforce, the Hylian shield is much too large for Link to wield on his arm and functions more like a turtle's shell. After his seven year sleep, Link became able to use it as his standard shield (until he finds the Mirror Shield.) A similar version, named the same, is used by Link in Twilight Princess, and is bought from Malo Mart in Kakariko Village after unlocking the Twilight from Eldin province.
