As Link steps onto the main octagonal platform of the boss room, the room shakes and the small rectangular platform behind him sinks into the lava. Then, Volvagia emerges from one of the holes on the main platform. It flies around the room whilst breathing fire before entering another hole.

The battle is designed akin to a {{wp|Whac-A-Mole}} game, as there are nine holes, and Link must whack the [[Dragon]] when it comes out using the Megaton Hammer. On the battlefield, there are pits of fire that Volvagia bursts out of to attack Link. Its head and upper body pop out from pits that are spitting fire. When emerging from a pit, Volvagia swings its flaming hair around to cause damage. Once Volvagia comes out of one of the nine pits, it executes one of three attacks. It will either reveal only its upper half, come out entirely to give chase while breathing fire, or fly up to the room's ceiling to trigger a rockfall.

When Volvagia comes out only halfway, it does one of two things, depending where Link is at the moment. If Link is far away, it breathes fire. If Link is up close, it tries to slash him. Link must get close to the Dragon and strike its head with the Megaton Hammer. Should Link miss the initial window before Volvagia's quick attack, another will present itself just after it is finished, just before retreating back under the platform. Once stunned with the Megaton Hammer, Link can slash Volvagia with the [[Master Sword]] or hit him on the head again with the Hammer until the Dragon recedes back into its pit. Eventually, it leaves its pit and attacks Link out on the platform, flying through the air. It can either cause rocks to fall down at Link or follow him trying to burn him. At that point, Link can use the [[Bow]] to fend off Volvagia, or he can go to the edge of the platform and hang there while the rocks fall down. [[Arrow]]s can damage Volvagia, although they cannot defeat it. Its health can be brought down using only Arrows, but it will not be defeated until it is struck with the Megaton Hammer or the Sword while stunned.
When {{Term|OoT3D|Volvagia}} emerges to swing its mane, {{Term|OoT3D|Link}} must strike its head with the {{Term|OoT3D|Megaton Hammer}} after it does so to stun it before it attacks again and recedes into the {{Term|OoT3D|Lava}} pit.

Latest revision as of 12:25, 8 November 2023

Not to be confused with Barba.

Volvagia is a recurring Boss in The Legend of Zelda series.(OoT | OoT (Himekawa))[2][3] It is a red, serpentine dragon, specifically resembling an East Asian dragon or lindworm, with a pair of front legs, a rocky skull and pair of curled horns and a fiery mane, and was revived by Ganondorf to terrorize the Gorons.

Characteristics

Ocarina of Time

Volvagia is an ancient Dragon that once lived in the depths of Death Mountain and was essentially the spirit of the Mountain.[4] It was said that a legendary Goron destroyed it with the use of the Megaton Hammer.[5] By the Adult Era of Ocarina of Time, Ganondorf revived the Dragon to secure the Fire Temple from intrusion. He also fed Gorons to Volvagia to make an example to other races that might revolt against him. Incited by the Goron Link, Darunia's son, the Hylian Link sets out to destroy Volvagia to stop the Dragon from escaping the Temple and turning Hyrule into a burning wasteland.

When Link steps onto the main octagonal platform of the boss room, the room shakes and the small rectangular platform behind him sinks into the Lava. Volvagia then emerges from one of the nine Lava pits on the main platform, briefly flying around the room and breathing Fire before entering another pit.

The battle is designed akin to a Whac-A-Mole game, as Volvagia will emerge from one of the nine pits at random and Link must use the Megaton Hammer to whack the Dragon when it comes out. Volvagia will emerge from the pits to either swing its fiery mane at him and then, depending on how far away Link is, breathe Fire or slash at him with its claws, fly upwards to the ceiling and trigger a rockfall or fly after him while occasionally breathing Fire.

When Volvagia emerges to swing its mane, Link must strike its head with the Megaton Hammer after it does so to stun it before it attacks again and recedes into the Lava pit. Once stunned with the Megaton Hammer, Link can slash Volvagia with the Master Sword or hit it on the head again with the Hammer until the Dragon recedes back into its pit. When it is flying, Link can use the Fairy Bow to damage Volvagia, though it cannot be defeated with this method.

After enough hits with the Master Sword or Megaton Hammer while stunned, Volvagia will be defeated. It will sink into the hole while clutching its head and emerge one last time, flying around erratically before its body burns into a skeleton from tail to head and its skull crashes to the ground, moving its jaw one last time before burning up and rewarding Link with a Heart Container. Darunia then awakens as the Sage of Fire and grants Link the Fire Medallion.

Please remember to remove this template once the image(s) have been added.

In the Ocarina of Time manga by Akira Himekawa, child Link purchases a baby Volvagia from the Hyrule Town Market, intending to set it free. Instead, Volvagia chooses to follow Link. Eventually, Volvagia learns to say Link's name in thanks for its freedom, and the two part ways.

When Link returns to Hyrule as an adult, Volvagia had been enthralled by Ganondorf into haunting the Fire Temple. Disheartened, Link is forced to slay his friend in order to both save the Gorons and put Volvagia out of its misery. With its dying breath, Volvagia whispers Link's name in thanks for once again being freed.

Later, as Link crosses the Haunted Wasteland, a spectre takes the form of Volvagia's disembodied head, suffering grievous pain, in an attempt to lure Link away from the safe path through the desert.

Trivia

Volga in his Dragon form from Hyrule Warriors
  • Volvagia, along with King Dodongo, are the only two bosses in Ocarina of Time to have a special battle theme.
  • In the Nintendo 64 version of the game, Volvagia is once referred to with male pronouns by Link the Goron.[6] This was fixed in Ocarina of Time 3D.[5]
  • An Arwing was used to test Volvagia's flight patterns.[7]
  • Valoo from The Wind Waker is suggested to be Volvagia's descendant in Hyrule Historia.[8]
  • Volga, a villain in Hyrule Warriors, shares many similarities with Volvagia. They have similar names, both utilize the Fire element, and Volga's helmet resembles Volvagia's skull. Additionally, Volga can take on a Dragon form which resembles Volvagia.
  • Volvagia's roars, alongside Ganon's, are reused from Gohma and edited to be faster and higher-pitched.
