Garo

While the Garo themselves are a separate race of undead that migrated from another world, over time the word ‘Garo’ has become a blanket term for the undead monsters that roam the surface of Hyrule.

The Garo themselves act as spies, giving information to any non-human races that have earned their loyalty. They hold a certain disgust with the other undead creatures they’re lumped together with, believing them to be more intelligent than a common redead or gibdo.

At times, human scholars correct the incorrect use of the term ‘Garo’ for undead that are clearly not of the Garo race and are accused of being a non-human sympathizer.

The Garo live on the Surface, only venturing into the floating islands when they are spying. The other undead races live all over the Surface, but especially in places where death has happened or people have been buried.
