Geru[1] are lizard-like enemies from The Adventure of Link.

The Adventure of Link

Geru are large armor-clad hulks whose behavior is nearly identical to Iron Knuckles, will hold out a shield, requiring Link to hit him either high or low; while charging at Link and attacking with spears and maces. Orange and Red Geru are primarily encountered in the forests of Eastern Hyrule around Kasuto and the Hidden Town of Kasuto, though Link first encounters the beasts on Maze Island in the cave where the Kidnapped Child is being held.

The more dangerous blue variety are exclusive to the Valley of Death, and attack by hurling maces at Link that can only be repelled with an active Reflect Spell. However, if Link jumps and slashes at the Blue Geru on his way down, he'll always deal damage. Even with a fully powered up Level 8 attack, this tough enemy will still require three hits of damage, and even if Link has a Level 8 Life upgrade, the Blue Geru attacks will still deal a full block of damage.

On the path south from Nabooru, Link also comes under attack from rock-throwing Red Geru that sit high atop walls and are unreachable, even with the Jump Spell equipped. They can be destroyed, but only by casting Spell or Thunder.

Orange, Red, and Blue Geru yield 150, 100, and 200 experience, respectively. Rock-throwing Geru yield 50 experience.
