Kaepora Gaebora
Kaepora Gaebora is an NPC actor in Ocarina of Time.
Placement
Several of the named types are story-gated and despawn on the wrong save (Kakariko, Lake Hylia / Gerudo, Zora's River, and both Lost Woods types).
Type variants (13)
This actor is placed in one of these forms. Pick it from the editor's Type dropdown. The value is what the actor's parameters store. The editor draws every one of these identically, so this list has no pictures. They differ in behaviour, or in something the preview doesn't model.
