==Biography==
==Biography==
Maypin is a bug merchant who can be found traveling to and from the [[Gerudo Canyon Stable]] in the [[Gerudo Highlands]].<ref>{{Cite|I sell bugs. What? It's a living!|Maypin|BotW}}</ref> Maypin is always seen with his [[Donkey]], who carries his wares. Maypin sells [[Warm Darner]]s and [[Cold Darner]]s,<ref>{{Cite|I've got some darners...and that's about it. See for yourself.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref> which, as Maypin suggests, Link can use to create [[Elixir]]s that prevent him from taking damage from the heat or the cold in the [[Gerudo Desert]].<ref>{{Cite|You should make some elixirs to keep you both warm and cool in the desert|Maypin|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|The desert's scorching by day and freezing at night. You'd better be prepared for both!|Maypin|BotW}}</ref> Maypin tells [[Link]] that he would like to sell his wares in the Gerudo Desert, but he has not found a pack [[Animal]] that does not get stuck in sand.<ref>{{Cite|I'd like to travel the desert to sell my wares, but I haven't found a pack animal yet that won't get stuck in the sand.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref>
==={{BotW|-}}===
{{Term|BotW|Maypin}} is a {{Term|BotW|Hylian|link}} {{Term|BotW|Merchant|link}} who specializes in selling {{Plural|BotW|Insect|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|I sell bugs. What? It's a living!|Maypin|BotW}}</ref> He travels from the gateway near {{Term|BotW|Koukot Plateau|link}} to and the {{Term|BotW|Gerudo Desert Gateway|link}}, stopping at {{Term|BotW|Gerudo Canyon Stable|link}} along the way. {{Term|BotW|Maypin}} wields a {{Term|BotW|Traveler's Sword|link}} and a {{Term|BotW|Wooden Shield|link}}, and he is always seen with his {{Term|BotW|Donkey|link}}.
 
When {{Term|BotW|Maypin}} reaches one of the endpoints of the path he takes, he will stop for a moment to investigate the road ahead. Near {{Term|BotW|Koukot Plateau}}, he states that the {{Plural|BotW|Monster|link}} ahead are too dangerous to risk.<ref>{{Cite|Careful... There's lots of monsters past this point. If they claim any more travelers, my business is sunk. After all, what's a monster need with my bugs? Nah... This is the end of the line for me.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|I'm turning back. Too many monsters past this point for my tastes.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref> At the {{Term|BotW|Gerudo Desert Gateway}}, he claims that the {{Term|BotW|Sand|link}} from the {{Term|BotW|Gerudo Desert|link}} is difficult for him and his {{Term|BotW|Donkey}} to traverse, so he has no choice but to turn back.<ref>{{Cite|I'm turning back. The {{Color|BotW Blue|Gerudo Desert}} sands are murder on my feet, and my donkey's too loaded down to ride.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref> As he walks away from the {{Term|BotW|Gerudo Desert Gateway|display=Gateway}}, he also reveals that there is too much competition for him at the {{Term|BotW|Kara Kara Bazaar|link}} for it to be worth the trip.<ref>{{Cite|The {{Color|BotW Blue|Kara Kara Bazaar}} just beyond the {{Color|BotW Blue|Gerudo Desert}} is an oasis packed with merchants. Too much competition for me. Plus I don't wanna drag my donkey out there. The stables are more my speed.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref> Despite this, he is interested in making sales in the {{Term|BotW|Gerudo Desert}}, but he has yet to find a pack {{Term|Series|Animal|link}} that will not get stuck in the {{Term|BotW|Sand}}.<ref>{{Cite|I'd like to travel the desert to sell my wares, but I haven't found a pack animal yet that won't get stuck in the sand.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref>
 
{{Term|BotW|Maypin}} is knowledgeable about {{Plural|BotW|Elixir|link}} that can be made with {{Plural|BotW|Insect}}, especially those that make journeying through the {{Term|BotW|Gerudo Desert}} easier.<ref>{{Cite|You'll need some of my bugs if you have a long trip planned. Why, you ask? Good question. They're important ingredients in the elixirs you need to survive harsh climates.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|Bugs are important ingredients in the elixirs you need to survive the desert climate.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref> He will inform {{Term|BotW|Link|link}} that these {{Plural|BotW|Elixir}} can be made with only {{Plural|BotW|Insect}} and {{Plural|BotW|Monster Part|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|Did you know you can make an elixir that keeps you warm or cool with just a few bugs and monster parts?|Maypin|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|Either one just takes a few bugs and some monster parts.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|Got enough elixir for your trip into the desert? Need any monster parts to make more?|Maypin|BotW}}</ref> Should {{Term|BotW|Link}}'s plans include a trip into the {{Term|BotW|Gerudo Desert}}, {{Term|BotW|Maypin}} tells him to prepare {{Plural|BotW|Spicy Elixir|link}} and {{Plural|BotW|Chilly Elixir|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|Are you REALLY ready to cross the desert? If not, you should stock up on elixir. You can make some that warm you up or cool you down while taking a break right here at the stable. Try it.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|You can make an elixir that warms you up or cools you down while taking a break right here at the stable. Try it.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|{{Color|BotW Blue|Gerudo Canyon Stable}} is a nice place and all, but are you going further into the desert from here? Because if so, you should make some elixirs to keep you both warm and cool.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|You should make some elixirs to keep you both warm and cool in the desert.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref> Due to the {{Term|BotW|Heat|link}} during the day and the {{Term|BotW|Freezing Climate|link}} at night, {{Term|BotW|Maypin}} believes only {{Term|BotW|Gerudo|link}} women would be prepared for both.<ref>{{Cite|The desert's scorching by day and freezing at night. Those Gerudo women are probably the only ones prepared for both.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|The desert's scorching by day and freezing at night. You'd better be prepared for both!|Maypin|BotW}}</ref> He suggests using {{Plural|BotW|Chilly Elixir}} for traversing the {{Term|BotW|Gerudo Desert}} during the day, but a {{Term|BotW|Spicy Elixir}} is the better choice for the nighttime.<ref>{{Cite|If you're planning a trip through the desert by day, you'll need an elixir to cool you off. At night, it's a different story. That's when you need some warming tonic.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref> Should {{Term|BotW|Link}} only have the supplies to make one {{Term|BotW|Elixir}}, {{Term|BotW|Maypin}} states that it should be a {{Term|BotW|Chilly Elixir}}, since the {{Term|BotW|Heat}} in the {{Term|BotW|Gerudo Desert}} is worse than the cold {{Term|BotW|Temperature|link}} at night.<ref>{{Cite|The daytime heat is much worse than the chill at night. If you can only do one, I'd make some cooling elixir.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref>


===Wares and Pricing===
If {{Term|BotW|Maypin}} encounters {{Plural|BotW|Enemy|link}} while he is traveling, he will run away in fear.<ref>{{Cite|Help meee!|Maypin|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|Gyaah!|Maypin|BotW}}</ref> After {{Term|BotW|Link}} defeats the {{Term|BotW|Enemy}}, he will be relieved.<ref>{{Cite|That was close...|Maypin|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|Wow...|Maypin|BotW}}</ref> Afterwards, {{Term|BotW|Maypin}} may thank compliment {{Term|BotW|Link}}'s fighting ability.<ref>{{Cite|Wow, look at you. Nice "moves."|Maypin|BotW}}</ref> He also has a chance to express concern for his {{Term|BotW|Donkey}} and the cargo it carries.<ref>{{Cite|Is my donkey OK? What about my cargo?|Maypin|BotW}}</ref> For saving him, {{Term|BotW|Maypin}} will give {{Term|BotW|Link}} {{Term|BotW|Enduring Veggie Rice Balls|link}} or {{Plural|BotW|Rupee|link}} as a reward.<ref>{{Cite|You saw me through alive. I don't know if you'd even want this, but it's yours.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref>

As {{Term|BotW|Maypin}} walks, he will advertise his {{Plural|BotW|Insect}} to passing travelers.<ref>{{Cite|Hot and cold bugs here!|Maypin|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|Anyone need some bugs?|Maypin|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|Bugs for sale! All kinds!|Maypin|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|I got both kinds here...|Maypin|BotW}}</ref> If {{Term|BotW|Link}} asks to see what {{Term|BotW|Maypin}} is selling, he reveals that his only wares are {{Plural|BotW|Warm Darner|link}} and {{Plural|BotW|Cold Darner|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|I've got some darners...and that's about it. See for yourself.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref> When {{Term|BotW|Link}} makes a purchase from {{Term|BotW|Maypin}}, he will be grateful.<ref>{{Cite|Nice. Thanks.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|That's it. I'm out. Thanks for that.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref> Like other {{Plural|BotW|Merchant}}, {{Term|BotW|Link}} can also sell his own {{Plural|BotW|Item|link}} to {{Term|BotW|Maypin}}.<ref>{{Cite|Can't hurt to look.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|What are you offering?|Maypin|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|If you have something to sell, don't hold out on me.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref> After paying for {{Term|BotW|Link}}'s {{Plural|BotW|Item}}, he will either thank him or ask if he needs something else.<ref>{{Cite|*nod* Thanks.|Maypin|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|Did you need something else?|Maypin|BotW}}</ref>

==={{TotK|-}}===
{{Term|TotK|Maypin}} operates a traveling {{Term|TotK|Wagon|link}}, from which he sells goods. Initially, he can be found stopped outside of {{Term|TotK|Woodland Stable|link}}.
 
When {{Term|TotK|Link|link}} talks to {{Term|TotK|Maypin}} at {{Term|TotK|Woodland Stable}}, he expresses his joy at finally owning a {{Term|TotK|Towing Harness|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|It's...it's finally mine! The {{Color|TotK Red|towing harness}} of my dreams! Took a while to save up enough {{Color|TotK Red|Pony Points}} for it. So many wild horses registered, so many nights at stables... But it's all been worth it! Now that I've got this harness, I can tow to my heart's content!|Maypin|TotK}}</ref> Noticing that {{Term|TotK|Link}} has been staring, {{Term|TotK|Maypin}} accuses him of being jealous of his {{Term|TotK|Towing Harness}}.<ref>{{Cite|Hm? Hey, you've been staring for a while now... Something up? You wouldn't happen to be jealous of my {{Color|TotK Red|towing harness}}, would you?|Maypin|TotK}}</ref> However, he claims he understands, since a {{Term|TotK|Towing Harness}} allows a {{Term|TotK|Horse|link}} to drag a {{Term|TotK|Wagon}}.<ref>{{Cite|I totally get it! I mean, if you had a {{Color|TotK Red|harness}} of your own, {{Color|TotK Red|your horse could pull a wagon}} or all kinds of other stuff.|Maypin|TotK}}</ref> Doing so has always been his dream as a {{Term|TotK|Merchant|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|Doing business from a wagon's always been a dream of mine, me being a merchant and all.|Maypin|TotK}}</ref> He claims he does most of his business in {{Term|TotK|Akkala|link}}, inviting {{Term|TotK|Link}} to speak with him should they run into each other again.<ref>{{Cite|I trade around {{Color|TotK Red|Akkala}}, to the northeast, so if you ever pass me on the road, definitely give me a shout!|Maypin|TotK}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|I do my trading northeast of here in {{Color|TotK Red|Akkala}}, so come find me if you're nearby. And hey, spend enough time on the road and I'm sure we'll see each other again!|Maypin|TotK}}</ref> If spoken to again, he suggests that {{Term|TotK|Link}} acquire {{Plural|TotK|Pony Point|link}} from {{Plural|TotK|Stable|link}} to he can receive one himself.<ref>{{Cite|Like my {{Color|TotK Red|towing harness}} that much, do ya? Then you gotta hit the stables and build up some {{Color|TotK Red|Pony Points}} of your own! You can earn points by using the stable facilities, handing 'em new wild horses, and staying the night there. Build up enough points and you'll get your own harness. Then you can pull a wagon all day long!|Maypin|TotK}}</ref>
