Postman

Many different people with the name Postman can be found in the The Legend of Zelda series. Although different, all the postmen are very dedicated and usually can run faster than most people in the game.

The first Postman appeared in Majora's Mask. He was the Terminan counterpart of the Running Man in Ocarina of Time. Since then, a lot more people have appeared in the The Legend of Zelda series with the title Postman.

A common attribute of all the Postman (and the Running Man) is an image of a rabbit. The Running Man bought the Bunny Hood from Link and wore it from then on. All Postmen have the image of a rabbit on their hat and flag.

Majora's Mask
In Majora's Mask, he is a very concentrated fellow, who takes his job very seriously. He won't even leave Termina when the moon is going to destroy it, unless he has permission. If Link manages to get him permission, he will give Link the Postman's Hat. He spends his free time counting and trying to stop exactly on ten seconds. If Link manages to count and stop at exactly ten seconds (wearing the Bunny Hood will keep the clock visible), he will give Link a Piece of Heart.

Oracle of Ages
In Oracle of Ages the Postman lives in past Labrynna and will give Link the Stationery if he give him the Poe Clock.

The Wind Waker
In The Wind Waker, the Rito are the postmen of the Great Sea. One Rito, Koboli, bears a resemblance to the Postman from previous games. It is hypothesized that he may be related to the various human postmen of other games, as, apart from what his looks suggest, his figurine also suggests his ancestors were postmen.

The Minish Cap
The Postman returns in The Minish Cap. In that game, he runs around delivering letters. He will occasionally be prepared to fuse Kinstones with Link. In addition, he has two helpers in the Post Office that help him out. Stamp works hard by addressing and sorting letters. Marcy doesn't work as hard and sells the Swordsman Newsletter, a magazine that provides useful information for swordsmen.

Twilight Princess
In Twilight Princess, the Postman deliver the mail once again. This time, he delivers to Link directly (provided he is in Hyrule Field), without the aid of mailboxes. He is much more comically depicted in this game than in earlier games. He breathes very oddly when running and hums several bars of a victory song after he finishes delivering a letter. However, he, like all Postmen still takes his job very seriously.

When not delivering mail, the Postman is seen in various places around Hyrule huddling in a corner clutching a piece of paper and muttering something. In Ordon Village, he is see huddling in Ordon Ranch worrying about the goats eating his mail. In Castle Town, he is huddling in Telma's Bar wondering what to order. In Zora's Domain, he is huddling behind the throne wondering who the "Mr. Zora" is that he is supposed to be delivering a letter to. In Kakariko Village he is crouched infront of a fire trying to dry a out a letter.

The Postman of this game posesses many mysterious qualities. He is somehow able to recognize Link while he is in wolf form, as he will call out Link's name to grab his attention if he has a letter for him, regardless if Link is in Hylian form or wolf form. If one is to beat the Cave of Ordeals a second time, the postman is found on the last floor inquiring that whatever Link is looking for is not there.

Phantom Hourglass
A new Postman appears in this game. Although Phantom Hourglass takes place directly after The Wind Waker and the same mailboxes from the The Wind Waker appear, the Rito do not deliver the mail to them in this game. This new Postman seems to mix the appearance of the Postman from previous games and Koboli from The Wind Waker. Although he appears to be human, he has wings and flies around, instead of running, like a Rito. He never once sets foot on the ground for the entire course of the game, instead landing on the individual mailboxes. This Postman does not let Link keep the letters he delivers, but instead just reads them aloud. Also, unlike other games, this Postman is only seen when delivering mail to Link. Otherwise, he is nowhere to be found.
