The Red Tunic will increase the offense of Link's weapons, whereas the Blue Tunic will increase his defense against attacks.<ref>{{Cite|Welcome, Link . I admire you for coming this far. I will give you the power of color. If you want offense, choose red. If you want defense choose blue. Which power do you want?|Great Fairy|LADX}}</ref> Link can revisit the Fairy Queen to change between the two tunics, but he can never change back into his green tunic. However, in the Nintendo Switch version of Link's Awakening, Link can re-visit the Color Dungeon to have the Great Fairy change his tunic to either the tunic he didn't choose (after initially completing the Color Dungeon, then as long as he is wearing the red/blue tunic from that point onward), or he can change back into his original green tunic (if he's not already wearing it) as much as he desires. For example, after initially beating the Color Dungeon, Link has the choice of either the red tunic or the blue tunic. From the first re-visit onward, Link can choose the red tunic or green tunic (if he's wearing the blue tunic), the blue tunic or green tunic (if he's wearing the red tunic), or the red or blue tunic (if he's wearing the green tunic). The Fairy Queen's design in the Nintendo Switch version also has a red dress, and her color scheme is similar to that of her appearance in {{OoA|-}}, but with yellow antennae and yellow wings with orange tips. | ||

The Queen of the Fairies in {{TWW}} is located in the [[Mother and Child Isles]],<ref name="TWW"/> which can be accessed only by using the [[Ballad of Gales]] and after rescuing [[Aryll]] from the [[Forsaken Fortress]].

The mechanical sounds in her variation of the Great Fairy music, her puppetry of a Great Fairy doll, and a "cut puppet strings" motion when she disappears cast doubt on this. She also holds a doll resembling a Great Fairy, which is what she uses to grant the young hero the Fire and Ice Arrows. After the Queen of the Fairies hands over the powerful Arrows, she flirts with Link by saying that he is just her type,<ref>{{Cite|{{Color|TWWHD Light Blue|Child... I must tell you... You are just my type. Tee hee hee!}}|Queen of the Fairies|TWWHD}}</ref> which embarrasses him. | ||
