A Legend of Zelda RPG
Bosses
There are many kinds of bosses in the world of Zelda. Here are some that have been refit to work in the temples and tektites rpg system. However, this list of bosses is not exhaustive. It is very simple to create a boss for your campaign. Bosses are enemies that are stronger than average and take a lot more to beat. Some have special rules on how to beat them. For one thing, bosses tend to have a lot more heart containers than regular enemies, in the 20 to 30 heart container range. They also have more attack turns, and multiple special abilities, and plenty of energy to throw around. This list of bosses is set at a base level, and each boss can be leveled like how other enemies and monsters are leveled.
