{{Term/Store|Carock||Series, TAoL}} is a [[boss]] in {{TAoL}}.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= |book= E |publisher= |page= 170}}</ref>
 
Essentially a large [[Wizard]], this boss guards the [[Maze Island Palace]], and can be defeated only by using the [[Spells of The Adventure of Link#Reflect Spell|Reflect Spell]] to turn his own magic attacks against him. Carock throws his attacks and warps at a very high rate, so Link must defeat him quickly before it is too late.
 
==Trivia==
*Carock is the first boss in the series whose defeat requires turning his own magic against him, later expanded upon with [[Agahnim]] before becoming common in later games.
*Carock bears a resemblance to the [[Magician]] who tricked the [[Prince of Hyrule|Prince]] and placed Princess Zelda under a sleeping spell. Despite the similarity, they cannot be one and the same, as Carock is one of the guardians of the temples that protect the [[Triforce of Courage]], created by the [[King of Hyrule|King of Hyrule]] himself, while the Magician not only was responsible for Zelda's current situation, but had died as a result of casting the curse.

Carock bears an uncanny resemblance to [[the Magician]] who tricked the Prince and placed Princess Zelda under the spell. The manual says that the magician died after completing the spell. It is possible that the magician and Carock originate from a clan of magicians.
