Morpheel is the | Morpheel is the Boss of the Lakebed Temple, at the base of {{Term|TP|Lake Hylia|link}}, in <i>Twilight Princess</i>. Morpheel was exposed to a piece of the {{Term|TP|Fused Shadow|link}} at some point before Link arrives at the Lakebed Temple. | ||

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, and 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 with 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 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. Morpheel, like {{Term|TP|Diababa|link}} and {{Term|TP|Fyrus|link}}, is aggressive in its battle with Link, but this is likely in part due to influence from the Fused Shadow. | |||
