Link

Link in The Legend of Zelda
In the game that started it all, Link is a brave hero who decides to save Hyrule and Zelda from the clutches of the evil Ganon. In this game, he collects the pieces of the Triforce of Wisdom and battles Ganon in the final battle of the game. After almost 20 years after its release, Link's orginal adventure still holds up and is the basis to all other Zelda games and storylines.

Link in The Adventure of Link
In a quite different game then the orginal, Link returns to again rescue Princess Zelda as he travels once more across the land of Hyrule to collect the pieces of the Triforce of Courage. At the same time, he also does battle with Ganon's minions who are in the process of trying to revive the evil king.

Link in A Link to the Past
In this game, Link is telepathically contacted to Zelda, who is imprisoned in the castle. After finding three pendants, he finds his way to the Lost Woods, where the Master Sword waits. Using the Master Sword, he travels from Hyrule to the Golden Realm, which had become a twisted, evil place with Ganon's touch. Awakening the seven descendants of the Sages {7 beautiful maidens} (Seven Wise Men), he uses their power to destroy Ganon.

Link in Link's Awakening
On a sea voyage to test his skills, Link comes across a deadly sea storm which leaves him stranded on a mysterious island where he must begin a quest to awaken the Wind Fish and defeat its nightmares.

Link in Ocarina of Time
In what is considered to be the most epic game of the series, Ocarina of Time was the first game to bring Link into 3D. After unsuccessfully saving the life of the Great Deku Tree from a curse placed by Ganondorf, Link embarks on an adventure across time to find the six sages of Hyrule and banish Ganondorf into the Sacred Realm. Bringing many new elements into the series, this game marked the first time Link rode horseback and had a traveling companion in the form of his fairy, Navi.

The game also reveals much of Link's relationships with other people. His best, most dearest friend, one he would do anything to save, is the Kokiri girl, Saria. He is unwillingly engaged to Princess Ruto, who later shrugs this off. Tarin asks Link if he wants to marry Marin, while Zelda acts somewhat rude to Link. Mido is Link's rival. Darunia and Link later will become good friends and great allies.

Link in Majora's Mask
In the direct sequel to Ocarina of Time, Link departs to the Lost Woods looking for his companion, Navi. Finding his way into the alternate dimension of Termina, he takes on the task of saving the people of the world from total destruction at the hands of a falling moon. With such an apocalyptic aura, this game is Link's darkest journey yet.

Link in The Wind Waker


Link, as seen in The Wind Waker, is a completely different Link when compared to the Link's of the past with his newest and most different look yet in the series. In this game, what begins as a quest to sail across the sea to rescue his sister later turns into another fantastic quest to save the world from Ganondorf and his evil intentions.
