Rupee Wraiths are enemies in Four Swords.[1]

Characteristics

Rupee Wraiths can appear when opening Treasure Chests, pursuing the Link that opened it. If a Link comes in contact with it, he will start losing Rupees in quantities of one, then five, and finally 20. Touching one of the other Links will pass the Rupee Wraith to them. Eventually, the Rupee Wraith will vanish after a few seconds.

In Four Swords Anniversary Edition, a Rupee Wraith can be dispatched quickly by switching control to the other Link not being attacked.

Trivia

  • In The Minish Cap, the Ghost that haunts Gregal shares the same sprite as the Rupee Wraith.
  • The Big Octorok Boss from The Minish Cap also produces the same squealing sound as Rupee Wraiths.
