Nyeve

The Impostor Link (named Nyeve in the Prima guide) is a character in The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. He can be found in the northwest quadrant, sailing a ship that looks somewhat similar to the King of Red Lions, which he calls the Prince of Red Lions. His outfit is almost exactly like Link's, except with a small white ball at the end of the cap and a heart-shaped belt buckle and a garden tool for a weapon. He is a middle-aged man, with red hair that connects to his beard. His brother is Nyave, a member of the maritime defence force who sails the southwestern sea in the Traveler's Ship.

In the fashion of Orca, the player participates in a minigame with him. If Link can hit him (without actually hurting him) 100 times, the impostor will give Link a Heart Container.

Impostor Link is very important in the trading sequence, as when you give him the Hero's New Clothes, he gives you a telescope.

His and his brother's names are plays on the words "Naive" and "Knave", respectively.
