The {{Plural|Series|Great Fairy}}' appearance differ vastly between games, and most of them can be found living within a {{Term|Series|Great Fairy Fountain|link}}.

==={{ALttP|-}}===

In {{ALttP}}, Great Fairies can easily be found scattered throughout Hyrule in either caves or holes. When Link approaches one, she will completely heal his wounds. Great Fairies seem able to maintain their normal forms even while in the [[Dark World]], despite its corrupting effects.

At the [[Waterfall of Wishing]] near [[Zora's Waterfall]] lives a Great Fairy who is known to be a friend of [[Venus]].<ref>{{Cite|I cannot grant any more wishes for you, but a friend of mine might be able to... She lives in the Waterfall Of Wishing near Zora's lake. I will return your Rupees to you. May you be happy...|Venus|ALttP}}</ref> She looks identical to Venus with the exception of her wings, which are smaller and more green. The Fairy at the Waterfall of Wishing appears when Link throws various items into the [[Mysterious Pond]] and will ask him if he was the one who dropped them. She will return any item thrown by the hero, but if he drops certain items, she will instead give him better items or upgrades of the item if Link answers her questions honestly.<ref>{{Cite|Hello there. Did you drop this? I like an honest person. I will give you something better in return.|Great Fairy|ALttP}}</ref> These include the [[Boomerang]], which she upgrades to the [[Magical Boomerang]], the blue Level-1 [[Fighter's Shield]], which she upgrades to the [[Red Shield]], and a {{Term|ALttP|Bottle|link}}, which she fills with {{Term|ALttP|Green Potion|link}}.

==={{LA|-}}===

In {{LA}}, Great Fairies are found scattered throughout certain areas of [[Koholint Island]], usually in a cave that houses a small pond and two Fairy statues. They heal Link's wounds when approached. Not all Great Fairies in {{LA|-}} live in a cave, there is one that lives in a small pond in the [[Mysterious Woods]]. There is also the [[Fairy Queen]] who only makes an appearance in {{LA|DX}}, and resides in the last room of the [[Color Dungeon]], a dungeon exclusive to {{LA|DX|-}}. As thanks for visiting her, she rewards Link with the "power of color"; a choice between the [[Red Clothes]], which increases Link's attack power, or the [[Blue Clothes]], which increases Link's defense.<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 visit the Fairy Queen again to swap between the two tunics, but he can never get his green tunic back once he has swapped it for another tunic.

==={{OoT|-}}===

In {{OoT}}, Great Fairies are depicted as giant women who wear ivy vines and leather boots for clothing, and have red hair that is tied into three pigtails. This also marks the first time that Great Fairies are seen without wings. Their locations are scattered throughout Hyrule, where they live in certain Great Fairy Fountains that all have the [[Triforce]] symbol engraved on the floor in front of their pond. By playing "[[Zelda's Lullaby]]" on this symbol, the fountain's Great Fairy will be summoned. Great Fairies, when first called, will bless Link with either a new item or an upgrade. The color of their fountain's walls also vary from either blue or red to signify what kind of blessing they will give. Three of the Great Fairies give out [[Din's Fire]], [[Nayru's Love]] and [[Farore's Wind]]. Another three will upgrade Link's abilities, giving him the [[Spin Attack|Magic Spin Attack]] and the Magic Meter, a larger Magic Meter, and doubled defense in the form of an extended health bar.

The Great Fairies can also be summoned again at their fountains to recover Link's health as well as his Magic Meter. All three of the Great Fairies who give out Din's Fire, Nayru's Love and Farore's Wind refer to themselves as the Great Fairy of Magic,<ref>{{Cite|Welcome Link! I am the Great Fairy of Magic! I will give you a magic spell. Please take it.|Great Fairy of Magic|OoT}}</ref> and possibly may be the same Great Fairy. The Great Fairies who bless Link with a magical sword spin attack, a larger Magic Meter, and a defense upgrade are referred to as the Great Fairy of Power,<ref>{{Cite|I am the Great Fairy of Power! I'm going to grant you a sword technique. Receive it now!|Great Fairy of Power|OoT}}</ref> the Great Fairy of Wisdom,<ref>{{Cite|Welcome Link! I am the Great Fairy of Wisdom! I'm going to enhance your magic power. Receive it now!|Great Fairy of Wisdom|OoT}}</ref> and the Great Fairy of Courage, respectively.<ref>{{Cite|Welcome Link! I am the Great Fairy of Courage! I'm going to enhance your defensive power. Receive it now!|Great Fairy of Courage|OoT}}</ref>

==={{MM|-}}===

In {{MM}}, the Great Fairies share the same in-game model as the ones from {{OoT|-}}, though with each one having a different hair color and eyebrow shape. Five Great Fairies appear in [[Termina]], all having been torn apart into 15 {{Plural|MM3D|Stray Fairy|link}} by the evil power of {{MM|Object}}. The only Great Fairy that needs to be restored in order to progress in the game is the one in [[North Clock Town]], who grants Link the ability to use Magic, and only one Stray Fairy has to be found for her to once again be complete. For the other four optional Great Fairies, Link must recover the 15 Stray Fairies scattered around the dungeons that are found in each corner of Termina in order to be rewarded with upgrades and a special weapon.

==={{OoA|-}}===

In {{OoA}}, many Great Fairies appear through [[Labrynna]]. Near the [[Eyeglass Island Library]] in the past, Link encounters the [[Fairy Queen]], guardian of the [[Zora Seas]], who was cursed by [[Veran]] into an [[Octorok]]-shape so that the evil sorceress could poison the seas and kill the [[Zora]]s without the Fairy Queen's interference.<ref>{{Cite|Please listen, young one! You may not believe this, but I am the Queen Fairy, guardian of this sea!

==={{FS|-}}===

In {{FS}}, three {{Plural|FS|Great Fairy}} act as the guardians of the {{Term|FS|Sea of Trees|link}}, {{Term|FS|Talus Cave|link}}, and {{Term|FS|Death Mountain|link}}. After completing each {{Term|FS|Stage|link}} with the appropriate amount of {{Plural|FS|Rupee|link}}, the respective {{Term|FS|Great Fairy}} will award the {{Plural|FS|Links|link}} with a key to unlock {{Term|FS|Vaati's Palace|link}}.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= |book= E |publisher= |page= 23{{Exp Game|FS}}}}</ref>

 

In {{FSAE}}, completing the {{Term|FS|Hero's Key|link}} door in {{Term|FS|Vaati's Palace}} causes the {{Plural|FS|Great Fairy}}' appearance and personality to change and resemble the {{Plural|MM|Great Fairy}} from {{MM}}.<ref>{{Cite|Welcome!

==={{TWW|-}}===

In {{TWW}}, there are seven Great Fairies, five of which reside in fountains under a giant shell. They have dark skins, light hairstyles and dresses and have four arms. One must be rescued from inside a [[Big Octo]] at [[Two-Eye Reef]].<ref>{{Cite|I tell you, lately no one around these waters has seen the beautiful fairy who bestows magic power. She used to live here, fry. All anyone ever sees anymore are the Big Octos that have been appearing lately. Maybe they scared her off... Oh no! I sure hope...they didn't eat her!|Fishman|TWW}}</ref> Another Great Fairy, the Fortune Goddess,<ref>{{Cite|It was also said that whoever met with the Great Fairy who lived here was blessed with great fortune, so it came to be known as the Fountain of the Fortune Goddess.|N/A|TWW}}</ref> lives in the [[Forest of Fairies]] in [[Outset Island]] and gives Link a larger [[Wallet]].

 

The upgrades received, along with the names of the islands in which the Great Fairies are located, are as follows:

 

*<font color=pink>'''Pink Great Fairy'''</font>: Wallet upgrade.

 

*<font color=lightblue>'''Blue Great Fairy'''</font>: [[Bomb Bag]] upgrade.

:*[[Southern Fairy Island]] – A bomb or a Fire Arrow must be used to destroy the wooden wall blocking the entrance.

*<font color=violet>'''Violet Great Fairy'''</font>: [[Magic Meter]] upgrade

:*[[Two-Eye Reef]] – A [[Big Octo]] must be defeated to rescue the Great Fairy.

*<font color=yellow>'''Yellow Great Fairy'''</font>: [[Quiver]] upgrade:

:*[[Western Fairy Island]] – The Skull Hammer must be used to hit the nearby stake and remove the fire blocking the entrance.

:*[[Thorned Fairy Island]] – The Skull Hammer must be used to hit the three nearby stakes and remove the thorns blocking the entrance.

After granting Link their respective upgrades, the Great Fairies subsequently vanish from their fountains, leaving in their place a handful of healing fairies, which Link can also capture in [[Bottle]]s for later use.

{{Figurines|TWW}}

In {{FSA}}, Link can encounter a Great Fairy while inside certain dungeons or caves. If Link throws in a certain item into the Great Fairy's pond, she will upgrade it to a Level 2 item. For example, throwing in the [[Slingshot]] will allow Link to shoot seeds from three different directions at the same time. Encountering these Great Fairies is crucial in order to solve various [[puzzle]]s within the stages. The {{Term|FSA|Fairy Queen|link}} also appears in {{FSA|-}}, during the [[Hyrule Castle (Dungeon)|Hyrule Castle]] level.

{{Main|Great Butterfly Fairy, Great Dragonfly Fairy, Great Mayfly Fairy}}

Three {{Plural|TMC|Great Fairy}} appear in {{TMC}}, each one found in a {{Term|TMC|Great Fairy Fountain|link}} hidden in {{Term|TMC|Hyrule|link}}. Their appearances are based off different {{Plural|TMC|Insect|link}}. They each test {{Term|TMC|Link|link}} in a different manner and reward him if he passes.

In {{TP}}, a Great Fairy appears within the [[Cave of Ordeals]] in the fountains that are found every ten floors. Each time Link reaches a new fountain, the Great Fairy will send healing Fairies to one of the [[Spirit Spring]]s across [[Hyrule]].<ref>{{Cite|In praise of your efforts thus far, I will release fairies to {{Color|TPHD Red|Ordon Spring}}.|Great Fairy|TPHD}}</ref> The first time Link reaches the fountain on the 50th floor, the Great Fairy will reward him by filling one of the young hero's empty Bottles with [[Great Fairy's Tears]].<ref>{{Cite|You cleared many ordeals... How impressive. In praise of your courage, I will give you this blessing.|Great Fairy|TPHD}}</ref> She will also tell him that he can get more Tears by going to any of the Light Spirit's Springs, although Link will only be able to have one Bottle filled with Great Fairy's Tears at any given time.<ref>{{Cite|If ever you need my assistance again, visit any {{Color|TPHD Red|spring}}.|Great Fairy|TPHD}}</ref> However, should he complete the Cave of Ordeals again, he will be able to fill another Bottle with the Tears at the fountain on the 50th floor, allowing him to have more than one.{{Fact}} The Great Fairy can also warp Link out of the Cave of Ordeals if he asks her to.

In {{ALBW}}, Great Fairies are commonly found scattered throughout the land of Hyrule. Many of them can be found in the same places as the previous Great Fairies. These Great Fairies will completely heal Link every time they are visited.

The {{Term|ALBW|Great Rupee Fairy|link}} is found in [[Lorule]], in a cave behind the [[Bomb Flower Store]]. Once [[Link]] has access to the [[Big Bomb Flower]], the entrance to her fountain can be opened by blowing up the large rock in front of it.

==={{BotW|-}}===

In {{BotW}} only four Great Fairies appear, named [[Cotera]], [[Kaysa]], [[Mija]] and [[Tera]]. At first they are found in closed fairy fountains resembling a large flower bud. To restore them, Link must offer them an increasing amount of Rupees. Once restored they will upgrade Link's armor when provided with the proper materials, though the max level depends on the total number of restored Fairies. Additionally, a fifth fairy fountain can be found, but it contains the Horse God [[Malanya]] instead, though his hands resemble those of a Great Fairy.

==Other Appearances==

==={{SSBB|-}}===

{{Noncanon|Start}}

The Great Fairy from {{TWW|-}} appears as a [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros.)|Trophy]] and a [[Sticker]] in {{SSBB}}.

[[File:HW Great Fountain Fairy Render.png|200px|right|The Great Fairy, with Link in a bottle, in {{HW|-}}]]

In {{HW}}, Great Fairies appear in several Scenarios, heavily modeled on the {{OoT|-}} incarnation. They are supportive characters who live inside [[Fairy Fountain]]s, and they may be summoned by praying to them for aid inside of [[Magic Circle]]s. They help in various ways, depending on the battle; such as sending Fairies to drop giant Bombs on enemy units, calling upon a recreation of the Terminian [[Moon (Object)|Moon]] to knock [[Argorok]] out of the sky, or sending a rain of energy that destroys several enemies on the field. Great Fairies appear in [[Hyrule Field (Stage)|Hyrule Field]], [[Faron Woods (Hyrule Warriors)|Faron Woods]], [[Valley of Seers]], [[Palace of Twilight (Hyrule Warriors)|Palace of Twilight]], and {{Term|HWDE|Skyloft (Stage)|link}}, where their fountains can be found. Whether they are summoned or not depends on the Scenario.

[[Great Fairy (Item)|Great Fairies]] are also a class of Weapon used by Link, in which control switches to the Great Fairy (as the Weapon) while Link is kept inside of a giant Bottle. The kind of Great Fairy that appears depends on the level of Weapon used. The Great Fairy uses magic attacks and magically-enhanced physical attacks in battle. In some combo attacks, Link is momentarily released as he and the Great Fairy perform special, combined attacks, including a form of [[Dead Man's Volley]] that targets surrounding enemies. The Great Fairy's enormous size makes her a powerful character, and her attacks cover a wide range. The Great Fairy Weapon is of the Water {{Term|HWDE|Element|link}}.

In the Boss DLC Pack, Great Fairies appear as [[Bosses in Hyrule Warriors|giant bosses]] that are fought in [[Ganon]]'s Fury Mode. They appear in battles acting as healers to other giant bosses that Ganon fights. They must first be defeated in order to prevent the other bosses from recovering. They continue to carry giant Bottles, although with Link absent, and do not perform any attacks that require both the Great Fairy and Link.

==={{HWAoC|-}}===

{{Noncanon|Start}}

In {{HWAoC}}, the four sisters of the {{Plural|HWAoC|Great Fairy}} from {{BotW|-}}; Cotera, Tera, Kaysa and Mija, as well as Malanya, fight as a single warrior (by way of sharing their pool) using their magic bracelets as their weapon. Their unique action is dependent on which of the Great Fairies is currently active, as they will change places with each other as they attack.

The {{Plural|HWAoC|Great Fairy}} can be unlocked after completing the [[Scenario]], "[[Akkala Tower (Scenario)|Akkala Tower]]", where the first [[Side Quest]] necessary to unlock the {{Plural|HWAoC|Great Fairy}} will begin. The side quest, "[[Offering Help on the Road]]". After this, the four side quests necessary to unlock the {{Plural|HWAoC|Great Fairy}} will be unlocked. They are: "[[Fairy Fountain: Grassy Plains]]", "[[Fairy Fountain: Deep Snow]]", "[[Fairy Fountain: Desert Sands]]", and "[[Fairy Fountain: Battlefield]]".

==Trivia==

* There is an error in the Great Fairies' names in the North American release of {{MM|-}}. The Great Fairy found by [[Snowhead Temple]] introduces herself as the Great Fairy of Wisdom, and then the Great Fairy of Courage on subsequent visits. Likewise, the Great Fairy near the [[Great Bay Coast]] says she is the Great Fairy of Courage, and then the Great Fairy of Wisdom. This is not present in the Japanese and European releases, in which Snowhead's Great Fairy is the Great Fairy of Wisdom, and Great Bay's Great Fairy is the Great Fairy of Courage.{{Fact|MM}}

* A Great Fairy [[Outfit]] was orignally planned to be included in {{TFH}}, but was cut.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRjkl36Nj2A Tri Force Heroes: Unused Great Fairy Link Outfit], YouTube, published November 5, 2015, retrieved April 26, 2021.</ref>
