Yiga

The Yiga are a clan of thieves in.

Characteristics
The Yiga Clan mainly consist of Yiga Footsoldiers and Yiga Blademasters. They are known for stealing information and supplies from the Gerudo Tribe. Their base, the Yiga Clan Hideout, can be found in the Gerudo Region up north through the Karusa Valley. The Yiga Clan's symbol, usually found on their masks, is the Eye Symbol of the Sheikah Tribe flipped upside-down. Outside of the Gerudo Region, Yiga Clan members can randomly appear to attack Link. This happens more often after Link invades their hideout and defeats their leader, Master Kohga. The Yiga will also sometimes disguise themselves as travelers, only to attack Link when he speaks to them. While sneaking around in the Yiga Clan Hideout, Link can take advantage of their love for Mighty Bananas by luring them with the fruit.

History
The Yiga Clan branched off from the Sheikah Tribe long ago and are loyal to Calamity Ganon. Shortly before the events of Breath of the Wild, Master Kohga orders the Yiga to steal the Thunder Helm from Riju to prevent her from getting close to the Divine Beast Vah Naboris. He does this in order to assist Calamity Ganon and prevent Naboris from stopping Ganon's return.

In Recovered Memory #7, Princess Zelda is attacked by a group of Yiga Clan members at Kara Kara Bazaar.
