     This formerly blue octorok was transformed by the same variety evil, empowering magic that creatures silver monsters. Consequently a dark octorok may be known as a silver octorok' or even a purple octorok. It is particularly aggressive and surprisingly cunning for an octo, and seems experienced enough fighting conventional warriors that it will weave away from sword strikes. Despite its nature and relative power, it is still found among other octoroks and has mostly the same behavior.
