'''Wallmasters''' are recurring enemies in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]]. They are similar to [[Floormaster]]s in appearance.

==''The Legend of Zelda''==
[[File:Wallmaster-LoZ-Sprite.png|left|Wallmaster sprite from The Legend of Zelda]]
Wallmasters debut in ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'', where they are frequently found in dungeons, and will come through the wall attempting to grab [[Link (The Legend of Zelda)|Link]]. This will result in Link starting from the entrance of the dungeon.

==''A Link to the Past''==
[[File:Wallmaster-2.png|left|Wallmaster sprite from A Link to the Past]]Wallmasters first appear within [[Skull Woods (A Link to the Past)|Skull Woods]], the third dungeon of the [[Dark World]]. Unlike their appearance from ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'', Wallmasters come from the ceiling instead of the wall. Initially, they appear hidden as if they are not in the room. However, a shadow will appear and a noise can be heard as the Wallmaster drops from the ceiling. The Wallmaster will attempt to drop down and grab [[Link (A Link to the Past)|Link]]. If it successfully does so, it will take Link back to the entrance of the dungeon. In Skull Woods, since there are multiple dungeon entrances, it will take Link back to where he last entered the dungeon.

A Wallmaster can be defeated with two strikes from Link's [[Master Sword]]. However, even if one is defeated, new Wallmasters will continuously drop from the ceiling. Since there is an endless amount of Wallmasters in any particular room they appear, there is little reason to defeat them. Instead, Link is better off just avoiding them when they fall from the ceiling.

==''Ocarina of Time''==
{{Navi}}
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', Wallmasters once again hang from the ceiling and drop down on [[Link (Ocarina of Time)|Link]]. A shadow and an ominous noise will signal their approach, as well as a brief comment from [[Navi]] upon entering the room that suggests that Link watch out for the monsters. They are first encountered in the [[Forest Temple (Ocarina of Time)|Forest Temple]] and later appear in the [[Shadow Temple]], [[Spirit Temple (Ocarina of Time)|Spirit Temple]] and [[Ganon's Castle]].

==''Majora's Mask''==
{{Tatl}}
Wallmasters appear in dark places, such as [[Beneath the Well]], and act just as they do in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]''.

==''Oracle of Seasons'' & ''Oracle of Ages''==
Wallmasters appear in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons|Oracle of Seasons]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages|Oracle of Ages]]'', falling from the ceiling and trying to grab [[Link (Oracle Series)|Link]]. If they grab Link, they will take him back to the entrance of the dungeon. In ''Oracle of Ages'', Wallmasters appear in [[Spirit's Grave]], where as in ''Oracle of Seasons'', they appear in the [[Sword & Shield Maze]] and [[Hero's Cave]].

==''The Minish Cap''==
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap|The Minish Cap]]'', Wallmasters have very similar attributes as in prior ''Zelda'' titles. They first appear in the [[Fortress of Winds]] and [[Link (The Minish Cap)|Link]] can see where they will drop down by looking at their shadow. If they grab Link, he will be transported back to the beginning of the dungeon. If defeated, they will disappear permanently.

{{Figurine| id=89 | Wall Master | Figurine_Wall_Master_(TMC).gif | Appears in dungeons. If these guys grab you, they'll send you back to the start of the dungeon. Dodge them as they fall, then attack. }}

==''A Link Between Worlds''==
Wallmasters behave in a similar manner to that of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'' in that they come down from the ceiling, grab [[Link (A Link Between Worlds)|Link]] and take him back to the beginning of the dungeon. In this game, Wallmasters are used to activate switches on an unreachable platform above Link, allowing Link to progress. Wallmasters in this game can be found in [[Skull Woods (A Link Between Worlds Dungeon)|Skull Woods]] and [[Lorule Castle]].

==''Tri Force Heroes''==
Wallmasters only appear in certain [[Drablands Challenge]]s. They act as focal points and obstacles in the eponymous [[Evade the Wallmaster!]] challenge, where they will attempt to slam down onto the [[Link (A Link Between Worlds)#Tri Force Heroes|Links]], wiping out all Hearts with a successful strike. Unlike the gnarled or otherwise unsightly designs from previous games, these Wallmasters have a technological motif. Specifically, they uncannily resemble [[Sheikah]] technology introduced in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''; they even have a Sheikah eye on their dorsal side. In spite of all this, no Sheikah are known to appear in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes|Tri Force Heroes]]'', potentially explaining the Wallmasters' relegation to the enigmatic Drablands Challenges.

==Non-Canon Appearances==
{{Non-Canon|section}}
===''The Faces of Evil''===
Wallmasters can be found in [[Harlequin Bazaar]] and [[Fortress Centrum]]. They appear in the background through small holes. They will reach their hand out of the hole in the wall and try to hit Link. They cannot be defeated and should be avoided whenever possible. Using Ropes to climb to higher ledges is the best way to stay away from these creatures. 

===''The Wand of Gamelon''===
In this game, Wallmasters appear in [[Tykogi Tower]] and [[Dodomai Palace]]. They look like and act the same as in ''[[Link: The Faces of Evil|The Faces of Evil]]''.
