Daphnes are common enemies in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising''. They now have discernible eyes and a rather innocent, colorful appearance to hide their dangerous nature.

These projectiles can potentially be destroyed if Pit causes enough damage to them. | Daphnes are common enemies in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising''.
