Gale Seed Supply
Type Utility Organic Item
Fields Seed, SingleUse, Stock, Wind
Cost 7 or 60 rupees

A Gale Seed appears as a small, pale-blue fruit in a shape reminiscent of a tornado. When the seed makes a strong impact with a hard surface, it explodes and abruptly produces a tornado-like vortex the size of a Hylian. The vortex will draw in anything within a couple feet, and launch it upwards with a powerful draft. A typical Hylian will be shot upwards about 10 feet (or 3 meters), forcing him to land uncomfortably without control over his trajectory. Most creatures will be shot up a distance that is painful to land from, but not inherently damaging.

This simple effect can produce spectacular results when properly used. A parachute-like item, such as a Deku Leaf, or a spell like Feather Fall, can be used to greatly enhance the height reached, and allow the user to effortlessly glide back down, and cover large distances quickly. As a more offensive effect, the user can strike an enemy with a Gale Seed, then place a dangerous trap beneath them which is almost impossible to avoid.

A Gale Seed Supply, which is part of the Stock field and not the SingleUse field, offers the user enough seeds that he effectively never runs out of them. It costs 60 rupees.

A single Gale Seed, which is part of the SingleUse field and not the Stock field, can only be used once. It costs 7 rupees. A Botanist can craft with individual Gale Seeds (but not with a supply of them). A skilled botanist can use 4 single Gale Seeds to craft a Gale Seed Supply. Using 5 individual seeds, the botanist can splice a Gale Seed's vortex-producing effect into a supply of other seeds, fruits, or vegetables.
