Bo is the mayor of [[Ordon Village]] and father of [[Ilia]].<ref>{{cite|FATHER! How can you be so easy on him? You're the MAYOR!|Ilia|TP}}</ref> He is first seen in very beginning of the game, found in front of the mayor's house by the road that leads up to [[Ordon Ranch]]. If [[Link]] speaks to him on his second or third day, it will trigger a sequence where a goat will come rushing down the road, and Link will have to wrestle it to the side in order to stop it.

==Nomenclature==
Bo is based on the Norse nickname Bua, which means "to live".<ref>{{Cite Web|published= June 13, 2019 |retrieved= January 15, 2023 |url= https://www.behindthename.com/name/bo-1 |archive= https://web.archive.org/web/20221225202054/https://www.behindthename.com/name/bo-1 |title= Meaning, origin and history of the name Bo (1) |site= Behind the Name}}</ref> In {{Wp|Chinese (language)|Chinese}}, Bo translates to "wave."<ref>{{Cite Web|published= January 22, 2019 |retrieved= January 15, 2023 |url= https://www.behindthename.com/name/bo-2 |archive= https://web.archive.org/web/20221225202054/https://www.behindthename.com/name/bo-1 |title= Meaning, origin and history of the name Bo (2) |site= Behind the Name}}</ref>

Bo becomes instrumental to the {{TP}} plot as [[Link]] reaches the base of [[Death Mountain]] after freeing the [[Spirits of Light|Light Spirit]] [[Eldin (Spirit)|Eldin]] from its Twilight bindings in [[Kakariko Village]]. The [[Goron]]s on Death Mountain are far too brawny for Link to face unaided, for he does not possess enough physical strength to match that of a Goron.<ref>{{cite|Are you trying to reach the Gorons of Death Mountain? It is far too dangerous, Link! They recognize only strength! A normal person could never persuade them...|Renado|TP}}</ref> Bo teaches Link the secrets of the art of [[Sumo|sumo wrestling]] in his home, and tells him that he defeated the Goron patriarch in his day with a secret: the use of the [[Iron Boots]].<ref>{{cite|Naw, the secret to beatin' the Gorons...is locked away in that chest.|Mayor Bo|TP}}</ref><ref>{{cite|You can probably tell, those boots are made of iron, lad.

Later, when Link speaks to Gor Coron, he will say that it is fortunate that Ilia looks more like her mother instead of Bo.<ref>{{Cite|I must confess, young warrior, I am surprised a lug like Bo could sire such a cute daughter.
