Personality: In many ways, Link shares similarites from his other counterparts. He's kind, selfless, friendly, and optimistic. He strives to help others no matter what, even if he dosent get a reward in return. As long as he's helping someone, even a complete stranger, he's happy. And like his counterparts, the most defining characterstic about him is his courage. No matter how powerful the opponent or how grave the danger, Link never shows any sign of cowardice. This is best exemplified by his willingness to be the Hero of Winds. Though he initialy ventured out to rescue his sister, once he learned of his destiny, he quickly took the role without hesitation.

However he differs from his counterparts in ways as well. Despite not being much of a talker, he's very expressive. Reading his thoughts is easy as reading his facial expressions or his body language. When he kills a boss, he leaps with joy. When he finds good treasure, he's estatic. When he's falling (or his pants are on fire), he screams and flails around in fright. When he's drinking Chu Jelly, he scrunges his face and chucks it down. When sneaking around a fortress, it looks very cartoonish. Whatever he's thinking shows.

His biggest characteristic, however, is his love for his family, particularly Aryll. Link is, for all intents and purposes, the best big brother you'd ever see. He gets along great with his sister and his very protective of her. When Aryll was kidnapped by the Helmroc King, Link immediately rushed to the rescue, not realizing that he was about to fall off a cliff. And may God help anyone who even thinks of harming her. Link's inital reason for venturing out to the Great Sea was solely to bring Aryll home.

However, as he travels the Great Sea, he begins to mature. He goes from a dopey island kid, to the Hero of Winds. He endures many hardships, learns to use various weapons and gadgets, seen others seperate from their loved ones to fufill their destines, and by the end of the game he knows what he has to do and does it with no complaints.

Link is not without his faults however. He's very easygoing and somewhat lazy. Odds are, if he's not helping others, he's usually snoozing. Because he's a kid, it's very easy to manipulate him into things. Though he knows what's right and wrong, he still comes off as a bit too trusting. Link is also very high strung and it's easy to startle him. He also seems a bit spoiled as he protested (made a face) at wearing the hero's tunic, though he put it on anyway.

Strengths/Weaknesses:
Strengths
* Is skilled in swordplay.
* Can use various weapons and gadgets.
* Is quite athletic for his size, able to leap great heights ,and even without his Power bracelets, carry a person his size with little effort.
* Adept at puzzle solving.
* Excellent at mapmaking and sailing.

Weaknesses
* His expressive face makes it hard to hide his thoughts.
* Can be easily manipulated due to his young age.
* Because of his light frame, a strong enough blow can knock him out.
* While his willpower and courage are admirable, they can also make him very reckless.
* His education is limited to whatever his Grandma saw fit to teach him. He knows how to read and write, but his other skills like math are basic. Also, since the closest thing to modern technology is a sailboat, anything beyond that will fly over his head. It's best to tell him it's just magic.

* Deluxe Picto Box
* Telescope
* Island outfit

Samples
First Person Sample:

[The feed clicks on to reveal a blond-haired pointy eared boy dressed in a green tunic and matching From the look of it, he's about 12 years old. The boy's looking around frantically and doesn't seem to notice the Pokedex on the ground.]

Where is this place? Tetra?! Aryll?! Where are you?!

[He finally sees the Pokedex and immediately picks it up.]

Hoy. My name's Link. I'm not sure if I'm using this right, but has anyone seen a girl named Tetra? She's about my age, has brown skin, blonde hair and she's dressed like a pirate. I'm also looking for my sister, Aryll. she's smaller than me, but she has blond hair like me and she's usually playing with seagulls. If you see either of them, please let me know.

[The part about seagulls forces him to pause as he takes the Wingull off his head.]

Oh, and could someone tell me what this thing is? It looks like a seagull, but I'm not really sure. [The Wingull chirps happily at the camera.]

This place is weird.

Third Person Sample:
To say Link was worried was a big understatement. The boy was downright panicking! It had been a few hours since he woke up in this strange place. At first, he thought himself to be dreaming, but now he's realising that isn't the case. That's when panic began to set in. He'd beat Ganon, so he should be on the surface, not here. And worse, Tetra wasn't here. What's he supposed to do?! Grandma was surely worried out of her mind!

He checked his bag for something that could help him, but his items were missing! All he had on him was his Picto Box, his telescope, his island clothes, and a bottle of Chu Jelly. He didn't even have his Pirate's charm, so there was no way of contacting Tetra. Oh this was bad. This was bad! A thunderstorm of questions began to form in the boy's mind: Where's Tetra? Where's Aryll? Where's the king?! How'd I get here?! How do I get home?! He thought he'd go crazy.

Link then took a few deep breaths to calm himself down. Despite his obvious apprehension and confusion, he knew he shouldn't let panic get the best of him. After all, he was the Hero of Winds! This wasn't the first time he found himself in a strange situation. He had been in tighter spots than this. He'd beaten Ganon and his monsters after all. Besides, if he was here, then so was Tetra. All he had to do was find her. He didn't get to be named the Hero of Winds by giving up now did he? He even had a companion to help him, a strange seagull. It reminded him of Aryll so he named it Aryll.

So, with his resolve hardened, he set off in search of her. And he wouldn't stop until he found her.
