Lana

Lana (pronounced ) is a playable Warrior in. She is a sorceress with light-blue hair armed with a book of magic that she uses to cast barriers to disperse enemies. She is described as a very energetic girl with a vast knowledge of magic and monsters.

Abilities
Lana is primarily a spell-caster in battle. She is athletic, capable of bounding and leaping across the battlefield with ease. When using her Tome's barriers she can jump off them in acrobatic feats, traversing battlefields swiftly.

Her starting weapon type is the Tome, a book of magic she carries to attack and to cast spells. When used normally, Lana is able to manipulate the pages of her book to strike her enemies. Its most prominent skill is the conjuration of barriers which can take a variety of shapes. Lana can create walls that surround enemies, shove them away, or even create a cube-shaped barrier that she can roll to plow through hordes. These barriers shatter once they sustain sufficient damage. Lana can also shatter them at will. Doing so causes damage to many enemies, though Lana can also be harmed. The weapon is of the Lightning element.

Her second weapon type is the Spear. It is primarily a tool for manipulating trees and plant life. Lana can also conjure Deku Trees and sprouts with it. Alternatively, it can change form into a Deku Leaf, an over sized Slingshot, and the Deku Shield. The Spear is of the Water element; it also enables Lana to use water and ice spells.

Her third weapon type is the Summoning Gate. Similar to the Spear, Lana uses it to summon creatures to fight for her. Her familiars are mostly enemies such as Dodongos, Gohma, and even Argorok. Using her Charge initially will summon a miniature boss monster and be stocked below her life bar. Should Lana use a combo that summons that particular enemy the finisher will be powered up such as when she summons Argorok and instead of it merely breathing fire, Lana will proceed to ride it. Overall, the Summoning Gate is a unique weapon with great crowd control, but due its combos' unwieldy nature and overall low damage it can be difficult to utilize in a situation against a Captain enemy or a boss. Lana will dance and hum songs while using the Summoning Gate. It is of the Fire element.

Biography
Lana was originally part of one being, Cia, a powerful sorceress who was tasked with maintaining the balance of the Triforce. Cia, able to observe distant eras and those who lived in them with her magic, became infatuated with Link and in turn jealous of Princess Zelda. Her preoccupied thoughts left her vulnerable as she was approached by a spiritual fragment of darkness, belonging to Ganondorf, who saw an opportunity to use her. As a result, Cia became corrupted as the light from her soul was pushed away, which formed into its own personality becoming Lana. Like Cia, she too also harbored affections for Link. However, she was able to contain it.

While Cia became the corrupted, wicked side of her former self, Lana became the virtuous side. Cia had opened the Gate of Souls to wage war over Hyrule, compelled by the darkness to acquire the full Triforce and to revive Ganondorf. Lana had retreated to the forests of Faron Woods, becoming the leader of a band of resistance fighters and determined to end Cia's machinations.

The Hyrulean Forces later meet Lana at the Faron Woods after hearing rumors of a resistance in the forest led by a young woman. They arrive hoping the she is Princess Zelda, who had went missing shortly after the wars began. Lana becomes of interest when she tells Impa that she is a sorcerer from the same clan as Cia, dissembling her identity. Lana says she'll only tell more if the Hyrulean Forces help her to defend the forest. Link, Impa and Sheik help Lana to defend the forest from the monster troops and defeat the Gohma sent by Wizzro. With the forest base protected, Lana travels with the Hyrulean Forces to the Valley of Seers where Cia awaits.

After the battle at the Valley of Seers, Link and Sheik confront Cia, but she is able to steal their Triforce of Courage and Triforce of Wisdom. With the full Triforce now in her possession, Cia then uses the Gate of Souls to summon entire worlds from other ages and merges them into present-day Hyrule. To escape the effects of this, Lana flees with the group and has them stand around her. She casts a protective barrier around them and they watch the fusion take place. Three of Ganondorf's scattered fragments are freed in this process and return to Cia, leaving only the fragment sealed by the Master Sword. Three Gates of Souls are also opened in the new worlds. The Hyrulean Forces resolve to close these gates and split up, with Lana heading into one of the portals.

Lana stepped into the Twilight Field, and was surprised to find how densely covered in shadow it was. Although her magic could not see the cause of the growing Twilight, she sought out to free the village from the monsters invading it. Early in the battle, she hears a cry for help, and tracks it down to find Agitha surrounded by Bulblins which Lana easily defeats. Although Agitha doesn't know what a Gate of Souls is, she promises to help Lana locate it with the help of her Goddess Butterfly. Agitha joins the Allies as she and Lana fight through the enemy troops, until they are suddenly stopped by Midna who seizes possession of the butterfly. Upon learning that the butterfly can guide to anywhere it is asked to, Midna decides to use it to find Cia, who had cursed Midna prior and turned her into an imp. With the butterfly now gone, Lana is forced to fight Midna and her troops to get it back. She manages to defeat Midna. After learning they're not with Cia, Midna joins them to close the Gate of Souls. The group then travels to the Palace of Twilight, and after defeating Zant, leaves to close the Gate of Souls there. Cia then reappears, and mocks Midna for her new appearance. She is hit by Midna, which knocks her mask off and reveals her face as identical to Lana's. As Cia leaves, Lana is forced to explain her story to Midna.

The group later reunites after closing the three Gates, and Lana explains herself to everyone else as well. They head to the Temple of the Sacred Sword, where they find that Link and Zelda's Triforce pieces have returned, unbeknownst to them because Ganondorf had tried to take the pieces from Cia. Lana is confident that with Cia's power diminished it is the time to counterattack, but Impa disagrees as Cia still has the Triforce of Power. Zelda suggests that Link retrieve the Master Sword. Impa expresses concern as the Master Sword is also a barrier to keep evil locked away. Lana believes the temple's magic will be enough to repel the evil, however. The Hyrulean Forces fight to retrieve the sword, defeating Wizzro in the process, and leaves to fight Cia again at the Temple of Souls. When Link becomes surrounded by the Dark Links Cia summons, Lana appears to his aid, followed by the rest of the Allies. The Dark Links are all defeated.

At the Valley of Seers, the Allies prepare for the final battle against Cia. Cia over exerts herself in using her life force to power her troops as well as her own abilities. This causes Lana pain and she pleads Cia to stop. Link defeats the dark sorceress and Lana rushes to her side. The two admit to each other that neither one will get Link's affection, though Lana accepts this. Cia fades away and leaves her Triforce of Power to Lana's possession. Lana then sends the new Allies back to their respective eras. With the combined power of Link's, Zelda's and her Triforce pieces, she returns Hyrule back it what it was. Zelda asks Lana if they'll ever see her again, but she sadly bids them good-bye and leaves to close the Valley of Seers' Gate of Souls.

The returned peace is short-lived as Ganondorf's final fragment is freed by the removal of the Master Sword. Now revived, he plots to build an army to take the Triforce. He summoned Ghirahim and Zant, built his stronghold at Gerudo Desert, and moved to take Lana's Triforce piece. Lana tried to escape him, but was cornered at the Valley of Seers. Even with Impa's and the Hyrulean Forces' aid, Lana was outmatched. She attempted to flee by splitting herself into two and running to a pair of Magic Circles. However, Ganondorf beats both of her doubles and seizes the Triforce of Power from her possession. He then marches to Hyrule Field, where he defeats Link and Zelda and acquires the full Triforce.

The Hyrulean Forces regroup and plan to defeat Ganondorf by first taking over his stronghold at Gerudo Desert. Lana is cornered by enemy troops, and in an act of desperation summons her Allies back from their eras. The Hyrulean Forces conquer the stronghold, and march back to Ganon's Tower to fight Ganondorf. Link fights and defeats him, and he then transforms into Ganon. Link defeats him again. The Triforce's pieces are returned to Link, Zelda, and Lana. Using their combined pieces they send Ganon away, bringing peace back to Hyrule. Lana tells Link to return the Master Sword to its temple, and insists that only Link and Zelda should do it together. She bids Link good-bye a final time. The Master Sword is returned to its place, keeping Ganondorf sealed yet again.
