Omfak (pronounced /ˈɒmfæk/ OM-fak)[1] is a shape-shifting, guardian creature who oversees the Shrine of Gamelon in Template:WOG. In battle, Omfak is known to shoot projectiles and morph its likeness into that of a wolf, a fire-spitting lion, and a pair of gigantic, exaggerated lips. During one of its animated cutscenes, it claims that "whatever I see, I will devour", and demonstrates this motto by killing and eating a nearby bird. After Omfak is defeated at the hands of Zelda, the foe explodes into a flock of black birds. Omfak is the equivalent of Lupay from Template:FOE, and also bears marginal resemblance to Glutko, both in its gluttonous behavior and significance to the plot.

During the battle, Omfak will rotate through three different forms, however, only when in the "lips" form will it be vulnerable to damage. In its wolf form, Omfak procures star-shaped lasers, and when in lion form, fireballs are its projectile of choice. Typically in The Wand of Gamelon, only one strike of the sword is enough to dispel a boss, and Omfak is no different.

Trivia

  • Omfak is an unique enemy to The Wand of Gamelon as he is the only boss in the game that doesn't share his AI with another enemy.
