Template:Character Peatrice is a character in Skyward Sword. She runs the Item Check storage facility in the Bazaar, where Link can store his Adventure Pouch items.
Biography
Peatrice's job at the Item Check bores her,[1][2] so she spends most of her time daydreaming about the perfect man. Initially, she treats Link with indifference, but if he visits her regularly after completing the Lanayru Mining Facility, she becomes more affectionate towards him.[3] The manner of winning her affection is to repeatedly visit her in the Bazaar once per day. If he stops visiting her, she will revert to her indifferent personality. After visiting Peatrice enough times,Template:How many the young woman becomes more cheerful and flirtatious around Link, using words like "sweetie" and "darling" to address him.[4][5] If he visits her house at night at this stage, she will ask Link how he feels about her. Link can choose to tell Peatrice that he likes her, or reject her.
If he tells her that he likes her, she will reward him with five Gratitude Crystals and Fi's comment will change to confirm that Link is interested in Peatrice, and advises him not to mention her around Zelda.
If he chooses to reject her, her father Peater will express gratitude that his daughter's secret suitor isn't bothering her anymore and give Link five Gratitude Crystals. Incidentally, after this, upon being talked to again, Peatrice will give humorous comments about how she is becoming more beautiful due to the ordeal of being rejected by Link.[6]
Etymology
Since most Skyloftians are named after birds, her name seems to come from the Peacock and possibly Rectrice, tail feathers. It may also be a corruption of "Beatrice" with the reference to "peacock", much like her father's name.
