The '''Deku Shield''' is the first [[shield]] usable by [[Young Link]] in {{OOT}}.
 
 
==Overview==
 
[[File:Deku Shield OoT.png|left|70px]]
 
The Deku Shield is a simple wooden shield crafted from the bark of the [[Great Deku Tree]].<ref>{{cite book|quote=Crafted from the wood of the mighty Deku Tree, the Deku Shield would protect Link from the fury of many foes. He found this sturdy shield in the Kokiri Shop and believed forty rupees to be a fair price.|book=Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Official Nintendo Player's Guide|publisher=Nintendo Power|page=}}</ref> The [[Symbols#Race Emblems|Kokiri Symbol]] painted on its surface resembles the [[Kokiri]]'s [[Spiritual Stones|Spiritual Stone]], the [[Spiritual Stones#Kokiri's Emerald|Kokiri's Emerald]]. Link must first purchase this shield in the [[Kokiri Shop]] found in the [[Kokiri Forest]] for 40 [[Rupee]]s to convince [[Mido]] that he is worthy of his council with the Great Deku Tree.<ref>{{Cite|Deku Shield 40 Rupees. Once equipped, you can defend with (R). If set on fire, it will burn!|N/A|OOT}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|Eh, what's that?! Oh, you have a Deku Shield... And what's THAT?! Is that the Kokiri Sword?! GOOD GRIEF!!|Mido|OOT}}</ref> After passing Mido, Link can purchase another shield from [[Business Scrub]]s in either the [[Lost Woods]], [[Inside the Deku Tree]] or within [[Dodongo's Cavern]] for 50 rupees.<ref>{{Cite|I give up! If you let me go,I will sell you a Deku Shield! It's 50 Rupees!|Business Scrub|OOT}}</ref> It's fairly functional, but its durability may be compromised by certain flame attacks; it instantly burns up if a [[Keese#Fire Keese|Fire Keese]] touches Link or a [[Dodongo]]'s breath harms him.<ref>{{Cite|Fire Keese-Destroy it before it flies into you! If you don't, its flames will burn up your Deku Shield!|Navi|OOT}}</ref> The Deku Shield can only be equipped while Link is in child form.<ref>{{Cite|Hi, mister! You can't use a Deku Shield! It's only for kids!|Kokiri|OOT}}</ref> Although the [[Hylian Shield]] is available to Young Link, it is far too heavy and it hinders his movement into a sort of "turtle shield" technique but the Deku Shield provides a more mobile defense and is well utilized by the [[Targeting System|Z-Targeting system]].
 
 
==''Ocarina of Time'' Manga==
 
[[File:13.jpg|left|thumb|120px|OoT Manga, Part 1, Chapter 2, Page 13]] [[File:14.jpg|right|thumb|120px|OoT Manga, Part 1, Chapter 2, Page 14]]
 
{{Noncanon|start}}
 
In the {{Manga|OOT}}, once [[Link]] and [[Mido]] had lifted the curse of [[Queen Gohma]] and relieved her from inside the [[Great Deku Tree]], he requests Link to carve a shield, the Deku Shield, out of his remains once he passes away so it may protect him from evil on his coming journey outside the forest. {{Noncanon|end}}
 
 
==Trivia==
 
*The Deku Shield is the shield carried into battle by [[Young Link]] in his appearance in {{SSBM}}.
 
*The doors inside the [[Forbidden Woods]] in {{TWW}} are similar to the Deku Shield, as the red Kokiri symbol appears on the brown doors, forming a Deku Shield-like shape and look. This characteristic is also shared with the doors of the [[Forest Temple (Twilight Princess)|Forest Temple]] in {{TP}}.
 
*The Deku Shield was in the beta version of {{MM}}.{{fact}} It is unknown why it was removed.
