Biography
Urbosa is a Gerudo BotW: who pilots the BotW:. She is capable of manipulating lightning using her technique, Urbosa's Fury. Urbosa battled with the Scimitar of the Seven and the Daybreaker shield. It is said that Urbosa's movements resembled a beautiful dance when using the Scimitar of the Seven. Urbosa cares for BotW: like a sister with a strong core. According to the Gerudo child, Pearle, Urbosa once saved Gerudo Town from an evil ghost.

In DLC Recovered Memory, BotW:, Princess Zelda arrives to Gerudo Town seeking Urbosa, the current Gerudo chieftain, for aid against stopping Calamity Ganon. Urbosa accepts Zelda's proposition without hesitation, as the Yiga Clan are planning to resurrect Calamity Ganon and steal the Gerudo peoples' treasured heirloom. Urbosa gives Zelda her word that she will not rest until the Calamity falls. Princess Zelda thanks the Gerudo chief on behalf of Hyrule and its king. Later, Urbosa and Zelda laugh while they walk outside Gerudo Town's walls. Zelda remarks that she has never seen Urbosa so serious. Urbosa cannot say the same, since ten years ago her "little bird" rarely smiled, referring to Zelda. The Princess feels like Urbosa has called her "little bird" before and asks where she got the name from. Urbosa stands still and orders two men who had passed behind them to halt and face her. She continues and calls the men traitors and that unlike them she prefers to face her enemies head on. After the two hesitantly look at each other, Urbosa draws her Scimitar of the Seven and spins around, telling them to do their worst. The two men, who are actually Yiga Footsoldiers, attack the Gerudo. Urbosa duels one of them before knocking the Yiga down using the Perfect Guard and hitting him in the stomach with her Scimitar hilt. She places the Daybreaker Shield on her back before using Urbosa's Fury to electrocute the second Yiga as he jumps in attempt to attack her from behind. Urbosa tells the Yiga that out of respect for the Princess, they may keep their lives and orders them to go. When the Yiga leave, Urbosa sheathes her Scimitar and brings up Zelda's question about why she calls her "little bird." Urbosa says that when the Princess was a small child, her dear friend called her that, with Zelda realizing that Urbosa is referring to her mother. Urbosa says that it was ten long years ago when the Princess's mother had left the world, yet her "little bird" still spread her wings and became the beacon of light Hyrule needed. Urbosa says that sometimes she forgets herself and gets lost in the past.

During Link's first Recovered Memory, "Subdued Ceremony", Urbosa is seen with the other Champions as Zelda appoints Link as her knight. After the Rito Champion Revali complains about the ceremony and Link, Urbosa tells him to give it a rest and that Link is a living reminder to Zelda of her failures.

Prior to the events of Link's sixth Recovered Memory, "Urbosa's Hand", Link is called to the Gerudo Desert by Urbosa. During the Memory, Link arrives to the Divine Beast Vah Naboris to find Princess Zelda sleeping in Urbosa's arms. Urbosa remarks that Link got there quickly and that she should have expected such from Zelda's own appointed knight. Urbosa then explains that Zelda is exhausted from being out on a survey all day. She then asks Link if he and Zelda have been getting along and quickly understands that they have not due to Link's response of silence. Urbosa does not blame Link for their poor relationship and explains that Zelda feels like a failure in her destiny when seeing that Link has succeeded in his. She goes on to explain that Zelda has put more than enough time and dedication to accessing her sealing power, even passing out in freezing waters during one attempt. Urbosa sympathizes with Zelda, saying that she would be doing the same thing and that Zelda is quite special. Telling Link to protect Zelda with his life, Urbosa turns to smile at Link and tells him that his role as her knight is quite an honor. With the night getting cold, Urbosa feels that it is time to take Zelda inside, but suddenly a better idea strikes her. Urbosa snaps her fingers to perform Urbosa's Fury, which causes lightning to strike into the Gerudo Desert and startles Zelda awake. Zelda turns to notice Link and questions what he is doing there. Urbosa begins to laugh at Zelda's confusion as she asks what is funny.

During Link's 15th Recovered Memory, "Return of Calamity Ganon", Urbosa and the other Champions wait near Mount Lanayru for Zelda to return from her journey to the Spring of Wisdom. After Zelda returns to report that she felt no power in the Spring, Urbosa suggests that they move on and that feeling sorry will not help. She also assures the Princess that the Spring of Wisdom was not her last shot and that they just need to find the thing that sparks her sealing power. Immediately after, Urbosa is proven wrong as Calamity Ganon begins to wake from its slumber. Urbosa tells Zelda that they need to get her somewhere safe before Zelda refuses, pleading that there must be something she can do to help.

Urbosa, as one of the four Champions who pilot the Divine Beasts, was a part of the plan to defeat Calamity Ganon 100 years prior to the events of. Urbosa and the other Champions met their demise to Calamity Ganon's four incarnations of Malice. Urbosa was defeated by Thunderblight Ganon. After her death, Urbosa lives on in the afterlife as a spirit and is trapped within Naboris. In, Link enters the Divine Beast Vah Naboris, defeats Thunderblight Ganon and frees Urbosa's spirit. Urbosa tells Link that she has waited for him to rush Hyrule Castle so that she can incinerate Ganon into a pile of ash. She rewards Link with Urbosa's Fury to aid him in his quest to defeat Calamity Ganon. Urbosa understands how Link and Princess Zelda have suffered regarding the Champions' fates. Urbosa accepts that things had to happen this way and no one need carry blame. She asks Link to let Zelda know this and that she could not be more proud of her. Urbosa concludes by telling Link to take care of the Princess and Hyrule. When the Divine Beast Vah Naboris aims its beam at Calamity Ganon, Urbosa remarks how Naboris, who was named after the Gerudo sage Nabooru, is a legend just like its namesake. Urbosa then says that Ganon once took the form of a Gerudo and likes that she can take her mission more personally. She says once a lock is established on Ganon, it will be up to Link to occupy it until she and the Divine Beast unleash their strike. After Link defeats Calamity Ganon, Urbosa's spirit is seen overlooking Hyrule atop Hyrule Castle with the spirits of the other Champions and King Rhoam, silently bidding Link and Zelda farewell before vanishing with them into the afterlife.

She is survived by her descendant Riju.

After Kass plays Link Ex Champion Urbosa's Song, Urbosa speaks to him from within Vah Naboris. She says Link is an impressive man and allows him to use Urbosa's Fury more often. The Gerudo Champion finishes by saying Link is the pride of Hyrule and that she is leaving the honor of caring for Princess Zelda in his hands. Link is then given Urbosa's Fury +.

In, Urbosa appears as an Spirit with the ability, Electric Attack 🠅, which increases the power of a Fighters' electric attacks.

As Princess Zelda is recruiting potential Champions to pilot the Divine Beasts, Urbosa was away from Gerudo Town and the Yiga Clan leader takes advantage of her absence and disguises himself as her. When Link, Impa, and the princess arrive, they are met with hostile Gerudo warriors who pursue them. "Urbosa" issued orders to eliminate Zelda which the soldiers heed, but only one Gerudo captain was suspicious of "Urbosa"'s behavior that was unlike her. When Link's group enter the throne room, "Urbosa" attempted to assassinate Zelda and her friends, but the real Urbosa arrived just in time to unleash Urbosa's Fury on her imposter, since Urbosa herself can generate electricity and checked on the princess to see if she was okay, and her delivery of Zelda's nickname "little bird" further proved that she is the real deal. The imposter reveals himself as Kohga and he summons the Yiga Clan against them. Once the Yiga Clan are driven out of the town, Sooga retrieves Kohga and takes him out of battle, referring to his foes as cowards, which Urbosa rushes at them in fury but they managed to retreat. After the incident passes, Urbosa explained that the town can sometimes be chaotic and goes on the subject about the Yiga Clan, whom she explains as Sheikah traitors who seek to revive Calamity Ganon and have been long time enemies of the Gerudo and often caused them trouble. She swears that she won't let them get away with it any longer which is one the reasons why she wishes to pilot Divine Beast Vah Naboris and vows to support Princess Zelda however she can, due to her connection to the late queen of Hyrule, who is also Zelda's deceased mother.

With the Champions assembled at the cliff outside of Korok Forest to search for the sword that seals the darkness, Revali is honored to do his part in keeping Ganon at bay, but he soon begins to insult Link and questions his leadership, to Daruk's frustration. As Revali continues to taunt Link about him failing, Urbosa had enough and firmly asked how much longer they would have to put up with his behavior. The Rito Champion then summons Divine Beast Vah Medoh to deal with the monsters around the forest before letting them know that it's okay to proceed. As Daruk and Revali briefly clash about the fog and getting lost, Urbosa assures them that they don't need to worry about getting lost, though she is concerned about an unseen foe that could attack them any moment. They meet Hestu, who was trying to get their attention and they ask for his help in reaching the clearing. Hestu is worried about the monsters that are hanging around, while Revali states that he can get around safely if he did not have his maracas, which Urbosa tells Hestu not to pay attention to him and offers to protect him from the monsters, which got Hestu to agree to guide them. During their exploration, they come across odd appearances of Malice and evil doppelgangers of the Champion Pilots called Hollows created by Astor to separate the others from Link and Zelda. After Link used the Master Sword to dispel the Hollows attempting to kill the princess and forces the prophet of doom to retreat due to the Master Sword's power, Urbosa rejoins the duo with the other three Champions as they listen to the Great Deku Tree's words. Meanwhile, these recent events have Zelda worried of not fulfilling her expected duties to unlock her power required for sealing the ancient evil away. On their way back to Hyrule Castle, everyone behind Zelda stops as the latter is overcome with doubt but is soon put at ease when Terrako plays her lullaby. After a disruption along the way, Urbosa sees Zelda comparing Link's success to her own unachieved success and assures her that with or without the Master Sword, Link is still the same boy they've always known. Zelda is still anxious, but Urbosa gives her a pep talk and reminds her of the Great Deku Tree's words that she shouldn't worry too much and she must accept her place, easing her mind for a time being. After the inauguration ceremony that took place, Urbosa and the other Champions are promoted and granted blue cloths that sigify their new status. Urbosa had removed her Chieftain's crown and replaced her Gerudo skirt for the blue one with Divine Beast Vah Naboris's emblem embedded on it. She is seen talking with Link and displays some amusement when Terrako and Impa begin to squabble. Mipha finds herself in an awkward situation with Link when she nearly voices her intentions about her training so she might battle alongside him, and Revali becomes agitated by the fight and forced to flee in anger and disgust.
