The Legend of Zelda

Truth Behind the Legend

Cast Profile

Name: Link

Race: Elf

Age: Approximately 18

Occupation: Unlikely hero...aka mercenary

Personality: A generally nice guy with a bit of a sarcastic tongue. He is filled with youthful vigour.

Abilities: Link is a fighter type who balances strength with agility. He tries to be flexible and very innovative.

Unique attributes: Link can use ANY type of weapon and is quicker to adapt to various situations than most.

Weapon of choice: Longsword

Information: Link is a mercenary from outside of Hyrule, garbed in a green tunic. Although he may look like the hero of Hyrule legend, both he and Shiek insist that is not the case. Link works as a mercenary, taking odd jobs and helping people whenever he can, however, once he has some money to survive on, he is very prone to lend others a hand with no personal gain. Despite his caring nature, he is slightly reluctant to take on obviously heroic jobs. Of course, escorting a troublesome young lady on her quest to find the King's son isn't heroic to Link, although actually questing himself to find the son would be.

Name: Sheik

Race: Hylian elf that pretends to be a Sheikah

Age: Approximately 18

Occupation: Would you believe, bard?

Personality: Sheik is much more serious than Link, but has a very gentle and tender side hidden behind her ninja-like exterior. She can be very emotional and makes a point out of doing good without reward.

Abilities: Sheik can perform minor tricks such as disappearing and reappearing out of seemingly nowhere.

Unique attributes: Sheik is extremely more agile than Link and can leap significantly larger distances than virtually anyone. She can practically fly in the air and is very graceful. She has a very weak curative ability.

Weapon of choice: Daggers. Unlike Link, Sheik can only handle very light weapons. She's also good at weilding a bow, but daggers, blow-guns, and small bows are all Sheik can handle.

Information: The granddaughter of the Sage of Legends, Sheik fully believes in the stories passed down through the legends. In fact, she secretly dreams of going on great adventures herself and perhaps finding her own legenday hero. ^.~ Sheik originally doesn't get along with Link because her grandfather hired him to get the key and spent his life savings doing so. She isn't fond of his sharp tongue either. Also note the way Sheik talks. Unlike Link, she and her grandfather do not use contractions, showing a bit of upperclass refinement. Oh...Shiek doesn't like dresses...she perfers her good old Sheikah attire.

Name: Rioma

Race: Hylian, appears to be human, unlike Sheik

Age: "Ah, was I suppose to remember that?"

Occupation: Sage of Legends

Personality: A very quite and friendly old man who really cares about his granddaughter, but knows she must learn for herself. It is skeptical of the legends whose job it is to maintain and pass down.

Abilities: Nothing in particular. He has great curative ability.

Unique attributes: Oddly, none, although he may have a slight telepathic connection with his granddaughter.

Weapon of choice: Staff, although he doesn't weild it as a weapon.

Information: Rioma is the Sage of Legends, whose duty is to maintain, perserve, and pass down the Legends of Hyrule to the next generation. Both he and his granddaughter have studied the legends, but he looks for more logical explanations whereas Sheik simply feels that they are truth. He is skeptical of the stories he has to pass down, and looks for clues as to what really happened. He believed that the several stories of Link and Zelda are simply retellings and different variations. He also believes that the stories are highly exaggerated and that Link may have helped the Hyrule Family in only a minor yet significant way, and not by defeating a powerful wizard as the legends often suggest. He however, does acknowledge in magic and power, especially of the Triforce. Oh, and he says "Ah" a lot.
