Niko



Niko is the skivvy and generally the lowest-ranking crew member on board Tetra's pirate ship. Niko enthusiastically befriends Link when he is reluctantly cast below the decks for a journey to the Forsaken Fortress; as with Link's presence, Niko himself no longer had the worst repute on board. Niko's apparently notorious incompetence leads him to be outwitted by Link on several occasions and has him hand over multiple important treasures to the hero as rewards for completing his challenges-notably a Bomb Bag.

In Phantom Hourglass, Niko recounts the events of Wind Waker before the Ghost Ship appears.
