A Serpent Suit normally appears as a green or black cloth or armor which covers a significant portion of the user's body. For so long as it is worn, the user resists all poisons that would otherwise afflict them, and is immune to the disabling properties of spells, techniques, and other treasures of the Disable field. For example, the wearer becomes immune to the blinding effect of Deku Nut flashes, and the sleep-inducing effects of Drowse. This suit does not protect its wearer from harm which is not explicitly based on treasures, however. A flash of natural lightning could still blind the wearer, for example, and an unknown spell cast by an NPC could still make the wearer fall asleep.
In addition to these protective benefits, the Serpent Suit has a secondary effect. When the wearer wills it, they can cause the lower half of their body to quickly transform into the tail of a serpent. This tail is fully under the wearer's control, and functions as if it was part of their body. It has proportional strength, and is particularly effective at coiling and wringing foes. It can also be useful for locomotion, particularly through mud, marshlands, or water where walking would be slow.
Trivia
- A Mermaid Suit and Skulltula Suit each has a similar effect, transforming the wearer's lower half into a fish or spider respectively.
- The Serpent Suit treasure is an original creation by one of Hyrule Castle's members. Its concept is credited to Guy.
