Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess Fan Creates Imposing Darknut Cosplay
A Legend Of Zelda fan has just put together an impressive cosplay of the Darknut from Twilight Princess. Nintendo’s long-running franchise has featured plenty of memorable characters over the years, and fans have enjoyed recreating their iconic looks in costume form all the while. Aside from the expected cosplays of main protagonists like Link and Princess Zelda, cosplayers have dressed up like Zelda’s ninja-like alter-ego Sheik, Breath Of The Wild’s Urbosa, and even the creepy Happy Mask Salesman from The Legend Of Zelda: Majora's Mask.
Meanwhile, the armored Darknut has been a recurring foe for Link since its first appearance in the original Legend Of Zelda back in 1986, and has served as both a minor enemy and a serious mini-boss throughout its many appearances in the Zelda sequels, spin-offs, and media tie-ins since. The version of the Darknut from The Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess is one of the most formidable yet, coming in different-colored variants that stand in the way of Link and the imp-like Midna as they journey through the Temple of Time and Cave of Ordeals on their quest to restore peace to the Twilight Realm. The resulting battle against Darknuts in The Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess comes in two phases, the first of which requires Link to doge the hulking knight’s blows and break its armor away with strikes from his legendary Master Sword. Once the armor is completely removed, the Darknut trades its claymore for a smaller longsword and becomes more agile, making defeating it a much greater challenge for Link.
