Biography

Breath of the Wild

Jerrin is a Hylian researcher who lives in the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab with her husband, Robbie.[3] The focus of her research is Ancient Shrines.[7] She previously worked as a research assistant to Purah at the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab, but Impa had her sent to help Robbie instead.[2] After arriving at the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab, she began to carry the Blue Flame from Tumlea Heights, and she also reworked Robbie's design for the Ancient Oven.[8] Not long after, they ended up married.[9]

When the Ancient Oven's redesign was completed, Jerrin became jealous of Robbie's interactions with the machine, which Robbie referred to as "Cherry" after his first love.[10][11] Though she knew her feelings were illogical, she was in tears when she finally admitted them to Robbie.[12] The pair decided to restore Cherry's mechanical way of speaking,[13] and Robbie instead began to refer to it as the Ancient Oven.[14][15] Some time after this incident, Jerrin gave birth to her and Robbie's son, Granté.[16]

When Link first arrives at the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab, Jerrin will stand by as Robbie confronts him for trespassing.[17] Afterwards, if Link tries to talk to Jerrin, she calls him suspicious and refuses to speak with him unless he proves that he knows Robbie.[18] Due to trade secrets, she is wary of sharing information with Link.[19]

Once Link has confirmed his identity to Robbie, Jerrin will excitedly greet him with an imitation of Purah.[20] However, she becomes concerned that it was too much for their first meeting.[21] If Link agrees it was too much, Jerrin assures him that everything is fine.[22] Alternatively, if Link tells that it was not too much, Jerrin is relieved that he is so friendly.[23]

Jerrin then asks Link what he needs from her.[24] If Link asks who she is, she will properly introduce herself.[25] She explains that she is an amateur scholar with a focus on Ancient Shrines.[7] The topic reminds Jerrin that Link needs to go to the left eye of Skull Lake, as there is an Ancient Shrine there.[26] She informs Link that the left eye is higher up than the right eye, where Kilton sets up the Fang and Bone.[27] This initiates "The Skull's Eye" Shrine Quest.

After Link completes the Shrine Quest, Jerrin will be able to tell that he visited Skull Lake.[28] When Link is confused, Jerrin explains she has a magical Sheikah nose implant that enhances her sense of smell.[29] At Link's silence, however, she reveals that she is joking.[30] As Link appears to be humorless, she surmises that his visit to Zuna Kai Shrine did not go smoothly.[31] She thanks Link for his report, but since the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab is short on funding, she is unable to give him a reward.[32]

Link can also ask Jerrin about Robbie, who she explains that he is a researcher of ancient civilizations who studied Guardians at Hyrule Castle 100 years ago.[33] She also reveals that she and Robbie are married.[3] This shocks Link, so Jerrin happily shares that they run the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab and have a son together.[34]

After hearing about Granté, Link can ask Jerrin about him.[4] Jerrin asks Link if he has seen him during his travels.[35] If Link says that he has, Jerrin will be relieved.[36] She stills considers Granté to be a work in progress, and once he is done studying Armor, she hopes he will take over her own research.[37] If Link says that he has not, Jerrin asks him to be nice to him if they ever meet.[38] In subsequent conversations, if Link changes his answer about whether or not he has met Granté, Jerrin will notice the discrepency.[39][40]

Tears of the Kingdom

Since the start of the Upheaval, Jerrin and Robbie have resided at Lookout Landing. Jerrin can be found in the Emergency Shelter, where she uses a Broom to clear away dust.[41]

When Link approaches Jerrin, she recognizes him, and she invites him to make use of the Emergency Shelter's services.[42][43] However, she warns him not to kick up any dust, since she has spent a lot of time cleaning.[44] In particular, she has noticed that the spot that she is cleaning gets incredibly dusty.[45]

Nomenclature

Jerrin is named after the fruit, tangerine.

  8. ↑ She carried the blue flame from Tumela Heights and even reworked and improved my designs for Cherry. — Robbie's Memoirs (Breath of the Wild)
  9. ↑ Her intellect, her spirit... In hindsight, is it any surprise that we eventually ended up married? — Robbie's Memoirs (Breath of the Wild)
  10. ↑ I'd always go personally to fetch more blue flame from Tumlea Heights. I didn't realize our interactions hurt someone... That someone...was Jerrin. Perhaps it was due to her namesake, but my exchanges with Cherry hurt Jerrin. — Robbie's Memoirs (Breath of the Wild)
  11. ↑ Cherry...that is, the ancient oven... is a machine I made to create ancient soldier gear. Isn't she adorable? Yes, hm? My first love... She shares the name of my first love. My wife...isn't as crazy about her as I am. — Robbie (Breath of the Wild)
  12. ↑ She was in tears when she told me. She knew it made little sense, and yet she couldn't help how she felt. — Robbie's Memoirs (Breath of the Wild)
  13. ↑ We agreed to restore Cherry to her original, mechanical way of speaking. I took it upon myself to make the changes. — Robbie's Memoirs (Breath of the Wild)
  14. ↑ From then on, I was careful to not refer to her as Cherry. Doing so would anger my wife. Instead, I called her... ancient oven. — Robbie's Memoirs (Breath of the Wild)
  15. ↑ Yes, when I call her Cherry, my wife gets angry and throws things. That's why I call her the ancient oven now. — Robbie (Breath of the Wild)

  19. ↑ Who are you?! Unless you're an acquaintance of Robbie's, I can't talk to you. Trade secrets, ya know. — Jerrin (Breath of the Wild)
  20. ↑ Aaaaand... Check it out! ...How was that? I figured I'd give an impression of Hateno Ancient Tech Lab's director, Purah, a shot. — Jerrin (Breath of the Wild)
  21. ↑ Maybe it was a bit much for the first time meeting you, though? — Jerrin (Breath of the Wild)
  22. ↑ [Yes.] Link, don't worry about it! It's all OK! — Jerrin (Breath of the Wild)
  23. ↑ [Not at all.] Aww, Link, I'm really glad you're such a friendly guy! — Jerrin (Breath of the Wild)
  24. ↑ So what do you need from me? — Jerrin (Breath of the Wild)
  25. ↑ [Who are you?] Heya! ♪I'm Jerrin!♪ Check it out! — Jerrin (Breath of the Wild)
  26. ↑ ...Oh, that reminds me! Link, there's somewhere you need to go. Umm... The left eye of Skull Lake! I know there's a shrine there, but it's a challenge to get to it... — Jerrin (Breath of the Wild)
  27. ↑ The left eye of Skull Lake is higher up. The right one is lower down. If you run into Kilton, you're on the wrong eye! — Jerrin (Breath of the Wild)
  28. ↑ So you went to the left eye of Skull Lake? — Jerrin (Breath of the Wild)
  29. ↑ ... Oh, you don't have to tell me anything. My magical Sheikah nose implant gives me a supernatural sense of smell. Just one sniff tells me everything you did yesterday and what you at for dinner last night. — Jerrin (Breath of the Wild)
  30. ↑ ... Just kidding. — Jerrin (Breath of the Wild)
  31. ↑ But judging by your dormant sense of humor, I'm guessing things didn't go as smoothly as you had hoped. — Jerrin (Breath of the Wild)
  32. ↑ In any case, thanks for the report. I wish I could give you a reward, but we're short on funding as it is. That's life in Hyrule for ya! — Jerrin (Breath of the Wild)
  33. ↑ [About Robbie...] Robbie is one of the researchers of ancient civilizations. He was studying Guardians at Hyrule Castle 100 years ago. — Jerrin (Breath of the Wild)
  34. ↑ [You're married?] Yes, indeed! Together, we run the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab. I've got a son, as well! — Jerrin (Breath of the Wild)
  35. ↑ Have you seen him in your travels? — Jerrin (Breath of the Wild)
  36. ↑ Ooh! Well that's good to hear! — Jerrin (Breath of the Wild)
  37. ↑ Granté is still a...work in progress. Once he's done studying armor, I'm hoping to convince him to take over my research. — Jerrin (Breath of the Wild)
  38. ↑ [I haven't seen him.] Really... Well, if you see him, be nice to him, OK? — Jerrin (Breath of the Wild)
  39. ↑ You said, "I saw him," earlier, though... — Jerrin (Breath of the Wild)
  40. ↑ You said, "I haven't seen him," earlier, though... — Jerrin (Breath of the Wild)
  41. ↑ Look at all this dust! — Jerrin (Tears of the Kingdom)
  42. ↑ Hey, I know that face! And any face I know is the face of a friend! Please, Link. Help yourself to anything in this shelter. It's all yours to use as you see fit. — Jerrin (Tears of the Kingdom)
  43. ↑ Anyhow. Help yourself to anything in this shelter. It's all yours to use however you want. — Jerrin (Tears of the Kingdom)
  44. ↑ But don't you dare go making a mass of this place and kicking up dust! I spend so much time cleaning in here, and there's still endless amounts of dust. Where does all this dust even come from, anyway? — Jerrin (Tears of the Kingdom)
  45. ↑ Why? Why does this spot, specifically, get so dusty?! I'm fed up with all the dust. — Jerrin (Tears of the Kingdom)
