Stalfos Rider

From Zelda Wiki, the Zelda encyclopedia

Stalfos Riders are Enemies in Cadence of Hyrule.[1]

Characteristics

Stalfos Riders are a special variety of Stalfos that pursue Cadence, Link, Yves, or Zelda while riding on top of skeletal beings that bear a passing resemble to Stalhorses. Their steeds allow them to move on every beat of the music, making them faster than a normal Stalfos until their mount is slain, which will ground the rider and turn him into a normal Stalfos. They only appear in caves and dungeons, and are one of the few enemies that can be summoned by a Sarcophagus.

Trivia

  • They behave identically to the Skeleton Knight enemies from Crypt of the NecroDancer.
