{{Term/Store|Ku|Ku|Series, ALttP, ALBW|plural}} are recurring {{Plural|Series|Enemy|link}} in {{TLoZ|Series}}.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= |book= E |page= 188 {{Exp Game|ALttP, ALBW}}}}</ref> They are the [[Dark World]] and [[Lorule]] counterparts of the [[Zora (Enemy)|Zora]]. | |||
==Characteristics== | |||
==={{ALttP|-}}=== | |||
In {{ALttP}}, like Zoras, Ku pop up out of whirlpools to jettison a single fireball at [[Link]] before disappearing under the water again. Unlike Zoras, they do not appear to have a [[King Zora|king]] or leader of any kind, although they do share some similarities with the [[Catfish]] that lives in the [[Lake of Ill Omen]]. Ku are common in the waters of the Dark World, with most appearing at the Lake of Ill Omen, the [[Ice Lake]] and even the [[Swamp of Evil]] where they share their home with [[Swamola]]. It is possible that they use Whirlpool Warps to travel around the Dark World much as the Zoras do, but there is only one of these warps in the Dark World. | |||
== | ==={{ALBW|-}}=== | ||
Ku reappear in {{ALBW}}, this time as inhabitants of [[Lorule]]. They can also appear on land, revealing their full bodies. They have webbed feet and a turtle-like shell, resembling a {{wp|Kappa (folkore)|Kappa}}, an aquatic demon of Japanese folklore. They will charge at Link, running swiftly on land. This type of Ku can be found in the [[Treacherous Tower]] and [[Ku's Domain]], a large waterfall found in the northeast of Lorule where Ku gather. If Link defeats all the Ku at Ku's Domain, he will obtain a Silver [[Rupee]]. The Ku in the Treacherous Tower appear in puffs of purple smoke. | |||

It appears to be the result of Ku being placed in shallow water in the Swamp of Evil, perhaps because the developers had originally intended for them to leap from the water and attack on land much like the Zora at [[Zora's River]], or because they had changed the layout of the shallow water in the swamp. | ||
