Acheman
The Achemen are recurring Enemies in The Legend of Zelda series.[1][name references needed]
Characteristics
The Adventure of Link
Acheman are monstrous Bats cursed by Ganon.[1] They are companions to Aches, though they do not disguise themselves as Hylians like their counterparts. Instead, they hang from ceilings in deep red, Ache-like forms. When their prey draws close, they swoop to the ground and transform into Bat-like men that spit volleys of fire.[1] After they spit a few blasts of flam, they return to their Ache forms and return to the ceiling.
Achemen are stronger than their Ache counterparts, though they can still be defeated with Link's Sword.
