Biography
Breath of the Wild
Onya is a Hylian resident of Serenne Stable. He and his brothers, Akrah and Garshon, debate the extinction of the Leviathans with each other.[5][6] Onya believes that they went extinct because of an ice age.[7]
When Link approaches the brothers, Akrah states that while they know where Leviathan Bones are located, they have been unable to access them to prove their theories.[8] Noticing that Link appears to be an adventurer, Akrah asks him to retrieve Pictures of the Leviathan Bones on their behalf.[9] As a reward, he promises Link 300 Rupees.[10] If Link agrees, the "Leviathan Bones" Side Quest will begin.
Onya wishes to see a Picture of the Hebra Great Skeleton, which is located within a cave in the Hebra Mountains.[11] If Link promises him that he will do his best, he reasons that Link would not survive such a journey.[12] When Link brings Onya a Picture of the Hebra Great Skeleton, Onya will be shocked by the quality of the image.[13] He claims that it is the proof needed to show that the Leviathans went extinct during an ice age.[14]
If Onya is the final brother Link shows a Picture to, he will be amazed that he was able to bring them Pictures of all three sets of Leviathan Bones.[15] He then gives Link a Gold Rupee as a reward.[16] Afterwards, he says that he will continue to analyze the Picture that Link gave him in order to research his theory.[17]
Following the Side Quest, Onya will continue to debate the Leviathans' extinction with his brothers. He states that Link's Picture has given him confidence in his ice age theory.[18] At night, he shivers in his sleep.[19] During Rain, Onya and his brothers will move inside the Stable. He says that he finds joy in discussing the extinction, but he quietly wonders when Akrah will leave.[20]
Tears of the Kingdom
Onya and his brother Akrah now reside at New Serenne Stable, where they argue about what goals to pursue next.[21] He wants to find a legendary weapon, and he thinks that the rumored beast is just a story.[22][23]
