Cara is a recurring character in The Legend of Zelda series.[1][2]
Biography
Breath of the Wild
Cara is a Gerudo who, alongside Isha, owns the Starlight Memories Jewelry Shop in Gerudo Town.[3] When Link first speaks to Cara, she apologizes and says that the Shop is not open right now.[4] She goes on to explain that with the Divine Beast Vah Naboris around and the theft of the Thunder Helm, Gerudo Town has been facing many problems lately.[3]
After Link completes the "Tools of the Trade" Side Quest, Cara will tell him secrets about Isha as thanks.[5] One secret is the fact that Isha's name is actually "Jewel", but she thought it was embarrassing to be a jeweler named Jewel.[6] However, Cara thinks it is a fine name.[7] She has also heard that Isha sleeps wearing nothing but Accessories, and she wonders whether she gets cold.[8]
Cara also shares that, despite Isha's claims that she does not do anything special with her looks, she visits the Hotel Oasis once a week.[9] She teaches Link that people who make such claims are usually lying.[10] She also describes Isha's past love triangle with Ashai, noting that both are still single.[11]
