The '''Boe''' is a globular, ghostly ball that appears in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'', and takes two forms: the [[#Black Boe|Black Boe]] thrives in the darkness and beneath shadow, while the [[#White Boe|White Boe]] flourishes in high intensity light and under [[snow]]-like conditions.

'''Black Boes''' are small enemies that hide in the darkness. They are found in areas of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]''. To defeat them, Link may easily slash them with his sword. However, they always appear in large numbers, since that is the only way they can pose an actual threat. They can occasionally blend in with their backgrounds, as long as the backgrounds are dark. They can be occasionally found in pots.

{{Nomenclature}}
The '''White Boe''' is the [[snow]]-dwelling counterpart of the destructive Black Boe.
Like their black incarnations, they swarm in packs, taking down larger opponents such as [[Link]]. Unlike the Black Boe, Whites Boes favor the bright, light [[snow]], rather than the darkness. But just as their brothers, they can be easily killed with a single sword swipe, and only pose a threat in large groups. A White Boe can commonly be found in pine trees and in the [[Snowhead Temple]]. They replace [[Tektite#Variations|Blue Tektites]] as the common [[Snowhead]] enemy at night. They can often blend in with surroundings, making it hard to spot them.


Before they reach the ground, White Boes resemble large [[snow]]flakes, appearing like a soft flurry.

Characteristics

Main articles: Black Boe and White Boe

Boes are shuffling, hazy balls that take two forms: the Black Boes, which thrives in the darkness and beneath shadow, and the White Boes, which flourishes in high-intensity light and under snow-like conditions. Both types are not very threatening when isolated, and can be dispelled easily with a single sword swipe. However, these floating fiends tend to cluster in groups, and in such situations, Link may have to switch fighting tactics to deal with them accordingly.
