Gunto is a member of Zelda Wiki. She greatly enjoys reading the various articles around the wiki and oftentimes gets lost in a reading phase. She is best friends with Kaerfca.

About
Gunto lives in North Las Vegas, Nevada. She is 13; born January 16th. She is usually on her computer all day, listening to music, chatting with friends and browsing the Internet. She has an older brother and older sister, though they are not members of Zelda Wiki. In fact, only her brother, Collin, actually shares the interest of Zelda with her. Her real name is Adrienne, though she likes to be called "Gunto Thineshire".

Name
The name "Gunto Thineshire" has its own meaning that not very many people know. Gunto (pronounced Goon-toe) means "Reject Phoenix". With "Gun" meaning "Reject", and "to" meaning "Phoenix", people don't seem to relate "Gunto" to "Reject Phoenix". Though the meaning has to do with the pronunciation of the name. "Gun", being pronounced "Goon", comes from the very word "goon" itself. As when someone refers to someone as a goon, they usually say it in the sense in that they don't want to see/be around that person, rejecting them. Hence, Reject. The "to" part of her name, being pronounced "toe", comes from Hōō, the Japanese word for phoenix, which is pronounced "hoe-oe". Thus, "Phoenix".

Thineshire, on the other hand, is just a combination of the two words thine and shire.

Computer and Software
This is where basic info of Gunto's computer is. This is so others can know how she operates, and why she can or can't do some things that other software of that category can or can't. It's also because Gunto, for some reason, loves listing what software she uses.

Personality
Gunto's personality is certainly how you take it, but most describe her as kind, friendly, funny and maybe just a tad crazy. She's gotten the occasional bad rap, but not usually.

Gunto and the Zelda Series
As far as the Zelda series goes, Gunto is--- HEY! Why are you typing in my article?! Third person and everything! ...ok fine, maybe it was me the whole time. But anyway...

I love the Zelda series. Well, obviously, else I wouldn't be here. :P But for a different story, let me tell you how I first got into the series.

When I was very young, I had first gotten a GameCube. Boy, was it awesome! The first ever game I got for it was Super Smash Brothers Melee, which I totally played hardcore. Everyday after school, I always looked forward to coming come and playing it. But that's beside the point. One time, not too terribly long after I first got my new console, the son of one of my parent's acquaintances came over to my house and brought over some games he no longer wanted. (they were wealthy, so they didn't really need to sell them) I now owned a few new games, an X-Men game (that I eventually got rid of, I think I gave it away as a birthday present), a Fairly Odd Parents game (I still own it, but it's awful, I want to sell it), and The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. At the time, I was only starting to consider trying the Zelda games. I had seen my brother playing them, and they looked kinda cool. Perfect timing, I thought. ''Let me try this out, and maybe I'll like it. I hope it'll be good.''

Ohhhh, boy, was it good.

My mind was absolutely blown. The graphics were colorful and adorable, the game-play was awesome (and challenging at the time, since back then I was pretty bad at games, and I got stuck a lot), the controls were very nice, and the story was understandable (at the time, again. Nowadays I've grown to appreciate the story MUCH more). And not to mention, the music. The music in The Wind Waker is simply gorgeous. So many of my favorite themes from not only the Zelda games, but gaming in general come from there.

Since TWW, I have managed to get my hands on a few other Zelda games. I have A Link to the Past from VC, Collector's Edition, Twilight Princess for the Wii, and Phantom Hourglass. All three of which I haven't played nearly as hardcore as TWW. Twilight Princess I am currently playing.
