Valoo resides at the top of [[Dragon Roost Island]] and is the patron deity and protector of the [[Rito]] people that dwell there. Valoo only speaks the ancient [[Hylian Language]], so there are few who can understand him, and even his attendant [[Medli]] has trouble sometimes. Valoo grants the Rito their wings when they come of age and always protects them from harm.<ref>{{Cite|We do so by the graces of the sky spirit, Valoo. When a Rito reaches adulthood, he or she journeys to the top of Dragon Roost to receive a scale from the great dragon. It is this scale that enables the Rito to grow his or her wings.|Rito Chieftain|TWW}}</ref> When [[Link]] first visits Dragon Roost Island, he finds out that Valoo is in a predicament: he is being tortured by [[Gohma#The Wind Waker|Gohma]] hidden in the mountain beneath Valoo's high peak. The dragon's change of temperament has prevented young Rito (such as [[Komali]]) from reaching him to receive the scale that allows them to grow their wings.<ref>{{Cite|Let me be direct. My son, Komali, is of the age to earn his wings... Yet...he is weak, in some ways...and in light of the current situation, he may just give up on ever getting them...|Rito Chieftain|TWW}}</ref><ref>{{cite|A letter? From my father?

There used to be a spring here, surrounded by a beautiful pond... It was peaceful and lovely...But then the great Valoo... He became so angry, and... In his rage, he shook the mountain and this boulder crashed down, plugging the spring. You can see the result.|Medli|TWW}}</ref> Link must defeat Gohma in order to stop the Sky Spirit's rampage and receive [[Din's Pearl]] from Prince Komali.

After Valoo is saved, he recognizes Link as a true hero and tells him to use the [[Wind's Requiem|Wind God's Wind]] to aid the young hero on his quest.<ref>{{Cite|O Hero! Thank you! O Hero! Use the Wind God's Wind!|Valoo|TWW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|Oh, I almost forgot! The great Valoo also names you, Link, a true hero.|Medli|TWW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|Use the wind god's...wind? That's what he said, but I don't understand. I wonder what it means?|Medli|TWW}}</ref> Later, after Link visits [[Greatfish Isle]], it is Valoo who tells [[Quill]] to give word to Link about the whereabouts of the Water Spirit [[Jabun]].<ref>{{Cite|Valoo must have been right when he asked me to bring word of Jabun to you...|Quill|TWW}}</ref>

Valoo is thought to be a descendant of [[Volvagia]].<ref>{{cite book|quote=Even after the land of Hyrule was sealed away, the guardian spirits of the three pearls of the goddesses remain.
