Stallord is the boss of [[Arbiter's Grounds]], the fourth dungeon in ''Twilight Princess''. Originally, Stallord is a lifeless skeleton of an ancient beast found in the dungeon's final  chamber. [[Zant]], however, reanimates Stallord's fossil by plunging a [[Scimitar of Twilight|Sword made of Twilight]] into the skull, thereafter disappearing.

[[File:Stallord Spine.jpg|thumb|left|Link attacking the spine]]
Stallord awakens and a large sand pit forms all around it. [[Link]] is forced to attach himself to the edge of the pit with the [[Spinner]] and ride around it. He must then detach from the wall and direct himself towards the spine, attempting to dodge the [[Staltroop]]s that attempt to block his attacks. Successfully attacking the spine three times makes it crack, bringing Stallord down. After this, its head falls to the ground, draining the sand out of the room. By spinning the Spinner into the lock in the center of the room, Link activates the gears, which causes a central pillar to rise in the middle of the room, leading to the second part of the battle.
Stallord awakens and a large sand pit forms all around him. His skeleton half protrudes from this pit sand. [[Link]] is forced to attach himself to the edge of the pit with the [[Spinner]] and ride around it. At the right time, he detaches from the wall and immediately directs himself towards the spine, attempting to dodge the non-aggressive, yet armored  [[Staltroops]] that attempt to block his attacks. By either dodging or killing them, Link is eventually able to attack the spine three times, cracking it and bringing the Stallord down. After this the head falls to the ground, and the sand is drained out of the room. By spinning the Spinner into the lock in the center of the room, Link activates the gears, which causes a central pillar to rise in the middle of the room, leading to the second part of the battle.

Stallord's skull then flies around the raised pillar, attempting to bombard Link with fireballs. Only by riding along the wall with the Spinner is Link able to catch up with it. Stallord attacks whenever Link gets close enough, forcing him to jump from wall to wall to evade. By striking it with the Spinner, Stallord is knocked out of the air, giving Link the chance to attack the Scimitar in Stallord's skull. When Stallord rises again, [[Blade Trap]]s start filling the walls, forcing Link to keep jumping from wall to wall.
Stallord, now just a skull, is still alive. His head flies around the raised pillar, attempting to bombard Link with fireballs. Only by riding along the wall with the Spinner is Link able to catch up with Stallord. Stallord attacks whenever Link gets close enough, and forces him to jump from wall to wall to evade. By striking him with the Spinner, Stallord is knocked out of the air, giving Link the chance he needs to attack the sword Zant placed in Stallord's skull. However, each time Stallord rises again, more [[Blade Trap]]s fill the walls, making it harder and harder to ride the wall, and forcing Link to stay on either side of the wall for a fair time, allowing the Blade Trap to pull away far enough to be harmless. Apart from this, the strategy changes little, and eventually Stallord is defeated, leaving behind only a [[Heart Container]].


Should Link be under the power of [[Rare Chu Jelly]] or [[Great Fairy's Tears]] during the battle, Link can finish the second form with three [[Mortal Draw]]s.
After enough hits, Stallord is defeated, leaving behind a [[Heart Container]].

Template:Boss Twilit Fossil: Stallord is the boss of the Arbiter's Grounds in Twilight Princess.

Strategy

Originally, Stallord is a lifeless skeleton of an ancient beast found in the dungeon's final chamber. Zant, however, reanimates Stallord's fossil by plunging the Scimitar of Twilight into the skull, thereafter disappearing.

Stallord awakens and a large sand pit forms all around it. Link is forced to attach himself to the edge of the pit with the Spinner and ride around it. He must then detach from the wall and direct himself towards the spine, attempting to dodge the Staltroops that attempt to block his attacks. Successfully attacking the spine three times makes it crack, bringing Stallord down. After this, its head falls to the ground, draining the sand out of the room. By spinning the Spinner into the lock in the center of the room, Link activates the gears, which causes a central pillar to rise in the middle of the room, leading to the second part of the battle.

Stallord's skull then flies around the raised pillar, attempting to bombard Link with fireballs. Only by riding along the wall with the Spinner is Link able to catch up with it. Stallord attacks whenever Link gets close enough, forcing him to jump from wall to wall to evade. By striking it with the Spinner, Stallord is knocked out of the air, giving Link the chance to attack the Scimitar in Stallord's skull. When Stallord rises again, Blade Traps start filling the walls, forcing Link to keep jumping from wall to wall.

After enough hits, Stallord is defeated, leaving behind a Heart Container.
