Gohdan

Gohdan is a boss and supporting heroic antagonist in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. It's a guardian tasked by the gods to test the chosen hero.
==History==
Gohdan first appears in the Tower of Gods dungeon. There it waits for Link to show up as the hero to be tested. It tries to attack Link with its hands and the fireballs shot from its mouth; to counter this, Link must shoot the eyes on its hands and face, followed by throwing a bomb into its mouth. After Link proves himself by eventually defeating it, it praises Link for his success and advises him to proceed with caution before giving him a Heart Container.

==Trivia==
*Despite being a boss in the game, Gohdan was not evil like a lot of the others, as it was simply testing Link to see if he was ready for his adventure. In addition, Gohdan does not appear in Ganon's Tower with the other bosses for this reason.
**Without Gohdan's help, Link would not have been able to progress further, nor would he have proven his ability to withstand the burden of the rest of his quest.
* Whenever Link runs out of bombs or arrows, Gohdan would provide Link a bundle of said item by dropping it out of its nose.
*The battle with Gohdan is similar to both the one with Bongo Bongo from Ocarina of Time and Mazaal from The Minish Cap. All three involve stunning remote controlled hands and striking a weak point at the main head/body. 
**Like Bongo Bongo, both of their boss stages involve staying on a platform surrounded by hazardous material.
**Additionally, Mazaal bears even greater resemblance in specific battle strategies and purpose as machines to guard places of importance. Gohdan and Mazaal even have the same name in the German version of their games as well.
