The purpose of this thread is to get some suggestions for that always troublesome topic of mine; bosses. This is relating to this quest...
Destiny of the Oracles
And here's the link to the latest stage of its development.

So, one of the aspects for this game is the dynamic behind the Mirror World. More specifically, the idea that you're kind of helping out the forces of Evil. Not that you have a choice. In order to advance in the normal world, helping the Mirror World will be a requirement. But this made me realize that the perfect bosses for that area would be... characters that are normally allies with Link.
I also have a bunch of tiles ready to be ripped into the quest for some unique enemies; which I've done very little work on for multiple reasons. These include the Thunderbird from Adventure of Link, a Giant Beamos, a large Dodongo, the Moblin Leader from the Oracle series, a large Lizalfos, a large Wallmaster, a plant creature I intend to turn into a version of Kalle Demos, a small version of Koloktos, a large Wolf-man, the Giant Chuchu and Keaton from the Minish Cap and a Hydra/Gleeok inspired by Binx.
Other bosses likely to show up are some of these guys.

A few other enemies which may be included can be seen here.

But another part is the idea of facing Link's allies. I've got some sprites for Sheik and perhaps Maple, Darunia, Saria or Ruto. Beyond them, I'm a bit stumped.
In fact, that pretty much sums up where I stand with this quest so far. I already got some assistance offered by Binx, which I've accepted but I'm beginning to think that I might need some additional staff. I've invited the member who contributed most of the graphical touches which will be included in the latest version of Passage Through Time to join, but not heard back yet.
So, I'm basically looking for ideas for which enemies to use as bosses for which dungeons; how they behave and how they can be defeated given the abilities you will have at that point in the quest. If anyone I know to be reliable wants to contribute to getting me out of my current slump; I'd appreciate it. I am working on stuff, just not as much as I did last year and I think it's probably because I'm more focused on scripting now than then.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
