Template:Item

The Cane of Somaria is a reoccurring item in the Zelda series, and first debuted in A Link to the Past. This red cane, when used, instantly creates a single block that Link can push and sometimes carry around. Only one block can exist at a time.

Appearances

A Link to the Past

In A Link to the Past, the Cane of Somaria is the treasure item of Misery Mire. In this game, magic is needed to create blocks and these blocks can be detonated or picked up and thrown. The Cane of Somaria is mostly used in the Turtle Rock dungeon.

Oracle of Ages

In Oracle of Ages, the Cane of Somaria plays a very similar role as it does in A Link to the Past, though without requiring the use of magic power. It is the primary treasure of Level 5, Crown Dungeon. Unlike A Link to the Past, the blocks cannot be detonated.

Four Swords Adventures

In Four Swords Adventures, the Level 2 Fire Rod works very similarly to the Cane of Somaria. When thrown into a Great Fairy Fountain, a regular Fire Rod, along with many items in this game, would be leveled up. It can then be swung to create red blocks. By swinging the rod again the first block would disappear and send fireballs flying in four directions.

Trivia

In its first appearance, the Cane of Somaria required magic to work, but in its second it did not, most likely because a Magic Meter does not exist in the Oracle Series.
