Helmethead is the boss of the Midoro Palace, the second dungeon in Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. Helmethead wields a sword and shield, and is similar to both an Iron Knuckle and a Doomknocker. His weak point is his head: eventually, the two helmets can be knocked off his shoulders, at which point they begin floating around the air, shooting fireballs at Link.
