stalchildren

i was playing mm and defeted the skeleton king ingos du ikana and i started thinking

has the stalchildren, captain keeta, ingos du ikana and his henchmen always been skeletons and if they havn´t how did they look like. they could not look like normal humans becouse of the shape of their head.

what do you think?

You mean Hylians?

Hmmm...I never thought about that. Maybe once they were some kind of Hylian or human, but they've been dead a long time so....the shape of their heads, mean only one thing....

Radiation! Muahahaha!

Hmmm.... this one's a toughy.... maybe they were in a bog or something. Bogs... ewww.
maybe it wasn't radiation, it couldv'e been skullkid's spell or a curse or something like that.

No, I don't think that the Stalchildren were once Hylians. However, I do think that the Ikana King and Stalfos were once Hylian. It has been said that Hylians that get lost in the Lost Woods become Stalfos (explains why there are so many in the Forest Temple, and Kokiri that get lost in there become Skullkids. I don't know the origins of Stalchildren, because there isn't really any backround to them. I will say this though, in Hyrule Field at night, if you kill enough Stalchildren, a giant one appears. Also, there's a glitch where if you run across the bridge with the Stalchildren chasing you, sometimes they'lll jump on the side of the bridge and fall into the river and die, and it'll keep going in an infinite loop until the cucco cries.
