Biography
Breath of the Wild
Baumar is a Hylian who travels with his Horse, Bamboo,[1][4] while carrying a Fisherman's Shield and a Traveler's Sword. The pair travel a portion of the Hilltop High Road between Serenne Stable and Snowfield Stable.
When Baumar was a child, he almost got lost up in the Hebra Mountains.[5] While a shield surfer saved him, Baumar has trouble recall his name.[6] Falmark was the shield surfer, and he claims that surfing down the mountain with a child on his back was difficult.[7]
Baumar shows a lot of appreciation for Bamboo. He refers to his Horse with a lot of affectionate terms, such as "totally gnarly", "radical", and "most excellent".[8][9] He also offers directions as the two of them travel.[4] If Link overhears him talking to Bamboo, he will explain that he is not good at conversing with people.[10]
Baumar enjoys Shield Surfing, finding it difficult to go long times without doing so.[11][12] His plan for his journey is to stop at Snowfield Stable, at which point he will head to the Hebra Mountains to Shield Surf.[9] Ocassionaly, he will say that he has no time to chat with Link.[13] He claims to be talented, though he describes his process as climbing the Mountains and Surfing.[14] When he makes it to Snowfield Stable, Baumar is excited to head up the Hebra Mountains and finally go Shield Surfing.[15]
On the way to the Hebra Mountains, Baumar mentally prepares himself for Shield Surfing, and he becomes annoyed if Link interrupts him.[16] The legendary Shield Surfer, Selmie, supposedly had all of her routes memorized.[17] There is a rumor Baumar has heard that Selmie is waiting on the Hebra Mountains for a worthy opponent.[18][19]
If he is caught in the rain, Baumar will be disappointed disappointed that he can not shield surf.[20] While it is storming or snowing, Baumar wonders if professional shield surfers head out in this type of weather, confessing he would break his neck if he wiped out.[21]
Occasionally, Baumar will give Link a Shield Surfing tip. For example, depending on the type of Shield used, one's surfing will be different.[22] He knows of a Shield that is supposed to be good for Shield Surfing, which is the Knight's Shield, but he can not remember what it is called.[23] Additionally, he has heard of the Hylian Shield within Hyrule Castle, which is supposed to be durable.[24]
