Morpheel becomes the Boss of the Lakebed Temple in <i>Twilight Princess</i>, after it is exposed to a piece of the {{Term|TP|Fused Shadow|link}}.  
Morpheel is the Boss of the Lakebed Temple in <i>Twilight Princess</i> and contains the third piece of the {{Term|TP|Fused Shadow|link}}.

==Characteristics==  


Morpheel is a large, eel-like animal that lives underwater. It has a slender body that is covered in red and green scales. Its body is segmented into vertebrae-like sections that are largest near the head and taper towards the tail. Each of these sections have a set of longer fins that protrude perpendicular to its back and underbelly. The tail has a large fan-like fin. Two other similar fins are located on opposite sides of the head. On its head, Morpheel has an outer mouth-like opening with twelve sharp, white barbs. This protects an inner sphincter-like opening that has finer barbs on its surface. Morpheel has eight long, iridescent tentacles around its head, as well. These can be retracted completely into the head or extended at will. Finally, Morpheel has a single eyeball that is free to move throughout each tentacle. This eyeball may also rest in a socket on Morpheel's back near the head.
Morpheel is a large, eel-like monster that lives underwater. It has a slender body that is covered in red and green scales. Its body is segmented into vertebrae-like sections that are largest near the head and taper towards the tail. Each of these sections have a set of longer fins that come out of its back and underbelly. The tail has a large fan-like fin. Two other similar fins are located on opposite sides of the head. On its head, Morpheel has a mouth-like opening with twelve sharp, white barbs. This protects a smaller, sphincter-like mouth that has finer barbs on its surface. This inner mouth can produce {{Term|TP|Bombfish|link}}. Morpheel has eight long, iridescent tentacles around its head. A ring-like light occasionally flows through them, but the tentacles are not electrified. Morpheel has a single eyeball that is free to move throughout each tentacle. This eyeball can rest in a socket on Morpheel's back near its head, too.


Morpheel has a protective temperament, especially with regards to its eyeball. During the battle in <i>Twilight Princess</i>, Morpheel protects its eyeball with its tentacles and {{Term|TP|Bombfish|link}} when the rest of its body is buried in the sand. The eyeball moves to the socket on its back when Morpheel swims around in the water. As it swims, the tentacles on the top side of the head drag behind and cover the eyeball. Morpheel, like {{Term|TP|Diababa|link}} and {{Term|TP|Fyrus|link}}, is also aggressive in its battle with Link, but this is likely in part due to influence from the Fused Shadow.  
Morpheel, unlike {{Term|TP|Diababa|link}} and {{Term|TP|Fyrus|link}}, is not aggressive in its battle with Link. Morpheel is defensive and protective instead, especially with its eyeball. Morpheel shields its eyeball inside its tentacles and tries to repel Link with Bombfish while its body is buried in the sand. When swimming freely in the chamber, Morpheel puts its eyeball into the socket on its back. The tentacles on the top side of the head drag behind and cover the eyeball. The tentacles may occasionally reach out at Link to grab him, but they spend most of the battle in a non-aggressive state.

{{Term|TP|Link|link}} enters from the top of {{Term|TP|Morpheel}}'s water chamber and sinks to the bottom, where he finds a single tentacle waving back and forth in the water. When {{Term|TP|Link}} touches the sand, an eyeball rises up through the tentacle, looks at him, and returns below the sand. The ground shakes and seven other tentacles emerge from the sand. Between them, a large mouth opens.

To defeat {{Term|TP|Morpheel}}'s first form, {{Term|TP|Link}} equips the {{Term|TP|Iron Boots|link}} and avoids {{Term|TP|Bombfish|link}} that are released from its mouth. The eyeball moves between the different tentacles. Link uses the {{Term|TP|Clawshot|link}} to grab and bring the eyeball close for {{Term|TP|Sword|link}} attacks. After enough damage is dealt, the eye returns to the mouth.

After two rounds of close attacks, Morpheel swallows the eyeball, retracts its tentacles into the sand, and rises into the chamber. The eyeball now sits in a small socket near the mouth, on its backside.<ref>{{Cite|Did you see its back? It's got an eyeball there, too!|Midna|TP}}</ref> If {{Term|TP|Link}} moves near {{Term|TP|Morpheel}}'s mouth, it will suck him in, damage him, and spit him out. Link latches onto the eyeball using the {{Term|TP|Clawshot}}<ref>{{Cite|So, it's eyeball really is the key! Good! Keep aiming for that eye!|Midna|TP}}</ref>. This queues a [[Critical Point]] and Link attacks the eyeball with his sword while standing on Morpheel's back. After some time, {{Term|TP|Morpheel}} shakes Link off, and he repeats this process until {{Term|TP|Morpheel}} is defeated. In its last moments, {{Term|TP|Morpheel}} wails, swims around the chamber, and levels several pillars. {{Term|TP|Morpheel}} eventually crashes into and punctures the outer wall, which drains the water in the chamber.

Upon defeating {{Term|TP|Morpheel}}, {{Term|TP|Link}} receives the third and final {{Term|TP|Fused Shadow|link}} and a {{Term|TP|Heart Container|link}}.
