Dungeon NPCs

The Old Man is an NPC that appears in many rooms across The Legend of Zelda. He offers Hints and Bomb Upgrades. You may also encounter the hungry Goriya who blocks your path unless you offer it Bait/Meat.
===NPC Distribution===
The original game distributes First Quest dungeon NPCs as follows:
*Levels 1-4: 1 Hint per level
*Level 5: 2 Hints, 1 Bomb Upgrade
*Level 6: 2 Hints
*Level 7: 1 Hint, 1 Bomb Upgrade, 1 Bait Block
*Level 8: 2 Hints
*Level 9: 3 Hints
When using the Shapes flag, you can expect hints to use first quest hint quantities.
Note: Hints, Bomb Upgrades, Bait Blocks, and Mugger Rooms can be shuffled, so you might see something like a Bomb Upgrade/Mugger/Bait Block instead of a hint in Level 1.
=== Bomb Upgrades ===
Bomb Upgrades are available in the normal game in Level 5 and Level 7. When the Change Bomb Upgrades flag is enabled, the price for Bomb Upgrades can vary from 75-125 Rupees, and you will gain between 2-6 Bombs per upgrade.
In the randomizer, Bomb Upgrades can be shuffled in First Quest only.
Note: Level 9 will never have a Bomb Upgrade.
=== Bait Blocks (Hungry Goriya) ===
Bait Block NPCs require an offering of Bait/Meat (purchased in shops) in order for you to clear the room. This can sometimes be required to progress through a dungeon, although these rooms can often have alternate exits via a bombable wall.
In the randomizer, Bait Blocks can be shuffled in First Quest only.
