Dampé

Dampé the Gravekeeper lives, or rather lived, in a shack in Kakariko Graveyard in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. His duty was simply to look after the yard, however he also ran a graveyard tour, in which he would dig for treasure at any location asked of him.

Dampé died during that Link's 8 year disappearance. However his Poe could be found in his crypt. That Poe would challenge Link to a race of sorts, and reward him with his favourite treasure, should he succeed. That treasure was the trusty Hookshot. Beating him in the race would also warrant a Heart Piece. After obtaining the Hookshot, it can be used on a torch to cut a few seconds off the clock in the race. It is also interesting to note that Dampé's grave was connected to the famous Windmill Hut, and within Ocarina of Time's game engine, it bore the same title of '?'.

Ocarina of Time was not the only game to feature Dampé, who is also featured in The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap.

Quote from The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap Dampé figurine:

"The gravedigger at the cemetery. They say he has the power to speak with the dead. He fuses the Kinstones he digs up with the local ghosts."

A gravedigger who is also named Dampé also appears in the Ikana Graveyard in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask.
