Character History
Character History:
In the Kokiri Forest, all the forest children have their own guardian Fairies, bestowed upon them by the Great Deku Tree, except for one boy...
Link never really fit in with the other Kokiri children. He was ostracized by the others (especially Mido, leader of the Kokiri) because he was different. Not only did he change and grow older, but, he did not have a guardian fairy like all of the other children. (Link would later discover that this was because he was Hylian and not a Kokiri.) His only true friend who accepted him was a girl named Saria. He shared with her his dreams of someday leaving the forest.
Everything changed the day he was summoned to help the Great Deku Tree, by his very own fairy, Navi. When Link and Mido discovered that Gohma (a monster sent by a mysterious man in black) had been sucking the energy out of the Great Deku Tree, they challenged her in battle and managed to kill her. Sadly, their efforts were for naught, because the Great Deku Tree died, despite their bravery.
The Great Deku Tree, before he succumbed, told Link that there was a man who wielded terrible power and wished to rule all of Hyrule and make the Triforce (a sacred object of the goddesses) his own. The Great Deku Tree told Link to go and stop him, to leave the forest, to grow and to the princess chosen by the gods and give her sacred Kokiri Emerald.
As Link left the forest, his friend Saria gave him her ocarina.
When Link arrived at Castletown, he met a girl his age. When he told her about his mission, she told him that she knew the Princess. She promised him that if he played with her all day, she would take him to where the Princess was. Link agreed, and the two had a wonderful time together. Their fun was cut short when Gerudo bandits attacked them, trying to take the girl. Link fought them off, but when he looked again, the girl was gone.
They would meet again the next day, when Link managed to sneak into the castle. His new friend was none other than Princess Zelda.
Zelda confided in Link that she has had dreams about a great evil overtaking Hyrule, but also of a boy from the forest with a fairy and a stone. She believed the Evil was Ganondorf, a man from the Gerudo tribe. Her father did not believe her premonitions, and she was worried for the future of her country.
Together, she and Link made a plan to get the remaining Spiritual Stones (one from the Gorons, one from the Zora) and get to the Triforce before Ganondorf.
In their innocence, upon collecting the Spiritual Stones, playing the Ocarina of Time, and opening the doorway into the Sacred Realm, they led Ganondorf right to the Triforce.
Link was sealed away for seven years until he was old enough to be the Hero of Time. When he emerged from the Temple of Time as an adult, the Hyrule he knew as a child was gone. Zelda was gone. The country was in ruins. He had to awaken seven sages and defeat Ganondorf, to return Hyrule to its rightful state and ruler.
After an incredibly difficult journey, and facing many battles, Link manged to make six sages aware of their sacred duties. All of these sages were beloved friends he had met along the way.
With the help of Navi and six sages, he finally found his Princess Zelda. Zelda was the seventh sage, and it would take the combined powers of all seven sages and Link himself to defeat Ganondorf. She further revealed that when Ganondorf had touched the Triforce, because his heart was so unbalanced, the Triforce split into three pieces. Power, went to Ganondorf. Wisdom, went to Zelda, and Courage, went to Link himself.
In a truly horrific battle, Link managed to defeat Ganondorf and free Hyrule from his terrible rule. Zelda apologized to Link for her mistake of having him open the Sacred Realm. She begged him to allow her to return him to his proper time so he could have a real childhood. Link reluctantly agreed.
Link returned to his childhood, where no one knew of his deeds (except the royal family, when he told them), and Navi left him on his own. He saved Hyrule, but at a bit of a personal cost.
Character Motivation:
At the start of the manga, Link wanted to be accepted by the other Kokiri and to be like everyone else. To have a fairy and to just fit in.
But, that isn't the path set for a heroes, and once out of the Forest, Link's true nature is soon discovered.
Link's primary motivation is to help others. He puts others first, not expecting anything in return. This selflessness is hard for his friends to take sometimes, and even Navi, has told him that he's a "sap" and "too nice".
Personality: Link is the living embodiment of Courage. He is selfless, as was mentioned before, kind, friendly, and a little self deprecating when he messes up.
He's not flawless. All that Courage sometimes bubbles up as recklessness, as he is an act first, think later sort of boy. That impulsivity is easier for people to understand when he looks ten and not seventeen.
He is, indeed, a ten year old boy. He likes to fish, ride his horse, climb trees, play games, eat. He'll get into fights if someone else starts them, and he's a little flustered by girls when they flirt with him. Which happens often back home.
Canon Strength/Weaknesses:
Strengths: Weapons, most especially the sword. He is the greatest in Hyrule, even at his age. Puzzle solving abilities. Musical instrument: the ocarina. Link, like many Hylians has an easier time with magic than some other races in Hyrule.
Weaknesses: Impulsive. Not very literate, since he was raised by eternal fairy children and a tree spirit.
Apprentice Sorcerer Application
Class: Hero, because...it's in the kid's title. Hero of Time. He would roll with it. It's his gig, he's used to it.
Fairy, because, he was raised by the fairy children. Malon even calls him Fairy boy, so he'd be perplexed, but, it would fit.
Weapon: Hero/Warrior/Machine class only. If Link has a weapon, it will be a sword. https://nintendo.fandom.com/wiki/Fighter%27s_Sword Would be my suggestion because this incarnation never held it.
Element: Fairy/Monster/Animal class only. If Link is a Fairy class, his element would be Water. Given his little paradox he created with the Song of Storms.

First Person Sample:
[Bright blue eyes peer into the mirror for a moment, before the boy gives a little wave.]
Hi! Um. My name's Link!
They told me that we're supposed to be helping everyone, against this stuff....called Erosion? [Someone unseen corrects him, possibly the child's roommate.] OH! Corrosion, sorry! That makes more sense.
[He pointed behind himself, towards the door to his apartment.]
So, uh, does anyone want to go fight it now? I'm ready, I just had dinner and, I think I can just go ahead and fight now. I don't think I need to go to bed or anything, I mean, if people are in trouble, shouldn't we be helping right away?
[He hesitated and grinned sheepishly]
Oh, I know, I look kinda small, but, I'm really good at fighting, I promise. I've killed lots of monsters and saved lots of people, so, you don't have to worry about me. I'm a Hero! Just--I mean, I am here too, but, that's not what I mean, I mean I saved a world before, so I'm not gonna slow anyone down. And I used to be older! Well, taller, anyway.
See, it's a long story, but, I went to sleep for seven years and then when I woke up, I had to save the world, so, I did, but, then I got sent back in Time annnnd---anyway, I'm tough.
So, uh, just let me know, okay? I'm ready to go as soon as you are!
Um. Bye!
[And he cuts the connection with another little wave.]
