River Man

The River Man is a character from the game The Adventure of Link, who lives in the Water Town of Saria. He resides in the western part of the town, guarding the bridge to the other side of the town. He does only let inhabitants of the town through. Link has to get a note from Bagu, who lives in the Moruge Forest, to get permission to cross the bridge. Another River Man can be seen on the other side of the bridge.

Trivia
The River Man is similar in appearance to the Hyrulean Knight from the Harbor Town of Mido.
