Rosso
Template:Character Rosso is one of the supporting characters in A Link Between Worlds. He is one of the descendants of the Seven Sages who sealed the Sacred Realm a long time ago.
Biography
Rosso is a miner that lives north of Kakariko Village at the base of Death Mountain and owns Rosso's Ore Mine at the top of Death Mountain. He gives Link the Power Gloves after noticing that the young hero cannot lift rocks. If Link picks up all of the rocks around Rosso's house, he will reward the young hero with Rupees. After getting the Master Sword, Rosso goes missing while on a mining expedition, having been kidnapped by Yuga and turned into a Painting. Yuga used Rosso and the rest of the Sages' power to release Ganon from his seal then merge with the Demon King.
When the Seven Sages' Paintings are scattered across Lorule, Rosso's Painting has been sent to the Ice Ruins, on the eastern side of Lorule's Death Mountain. He is the last Sage to be rescued.
After Link rescues him from the Ice Ruins, Rosso reveals that he always knew of his status as a Sage, but he always thought it inconsequential, as he was too busy mining rocks.[1] Afterwards, he tells Link that he simply wants to return to cracking rocks.[2]
Theories
Ancestry
Due to his bulky physique, black eyes, and the Goron symbol on his belt, some speculate that Rosso is descended from Darunia. He could therefore be a Sage of Fire.

It wasn't really a secret. I was just too busy mining all the time to mention it. Speaking of busy--you've still got some work to do here. Find the rest of the Seven Sages, OK? If you do, you'll be all the stronger, Link." — Rosso (A Link Between Worlds)
