Template:Character Fledge is a resident of the Knight Academy in Skyloft in Skyward Sword. He is a kind, but cowardly person.[1] Fledge seems to have confidence issues, stemming from his soft nature and lack of physical prowess.[2]
Biography
Before the Wing Ceremony, Fledge can be found near the bathroom of the Knight Academy, attempting to carry barrels for Henya.[3] If Link helps Fledge carry a barrel into the kitchen, he will give the young hero 20 Rupees as thanks.[4][5] If Link decides not to help him, Fledge will carry on with his work.[6]
After Link learns that his Loftwing is missing, Pipit and Fledge help Link find it. With Pipit's coercion,[7] Fledge admits to being hazed into not telling Link about overhearing Groose's plan to kidnap the young hero's Loftwing.[8] From the information Fledge provides, Pipit determines that Groose and his gang hid Link's Loftwing near a waterfall.[9] Afterwards, Fledge apologizes to Link for being a coward.[10] If Link talks to Fledge before this, he will behave suspiciously and hint that he knows something.[11] After Link walks away, Fledge tries to tell the young hero, but decides not to.[12]
Once Link obtains the Goddess Sword, Fledge compliments Link on his new tunic and gives the young hero an Adventure Pouch, saying that he made it himself.[13]
After Link obtains the Bow, Fledge can be found in his room at night in the Knight Academy doing push-ups. He'll ask Link for a Stamina Potion to supply the strength he needs to continue exercising, significantly increasing the number of push-ups he can do. Later, Link can give him a second Stamina Potion, increasing that number even more. Eventually Fledge will be able to do nearly 4,000 push-ups, and will give Link five Gratitude Crystals for his help. After helping Fledge become stronger, he opens the minigame Pumpkin Pull, a game where Link may use his bow on pumpkins Fledge tosses into the air as target practice.
Etymology
Fledge's name comes from fledge, the stage of a bird's life when a young bird develops stronger wings and muscles to fly.
Trivia
- Despite not appearing to be a senior student at the academy,[3] he wears an orange tunic.
- He shares a similar appearance to Tingle with his rosy cheeks, large nose and slanted eyebrows.
