Biography

Breath of the Wild

Soh Kofi is a Sheikah Monk who serves the Goddess Hylia. Following the first Great Calamity and the ostracism of the Sheikah 10,000 years prior to Breath of the Wild, Soh Kofi became a Monk and constructed an Ancient Shrine to help prepare Link against the threat of Calamity Ganon.[4][1]

Following Link's Slumber of Restoration in the Shrine of Resurrection, the Soh Kofi Shrine is activated and can then be entered by someone bearing a Sheikah Slate.[5] When Link enters the Shrine, he is greeted by the Monk and is offered the Shrine's Trial in the name of Hylia.[2] If Link completes the Trial, Soh Kofi praises him and rewards the Hylian Champion with a Spirit Orb.[6] With their role fulfilled, Soh Kofi wishes Link well as their body fades away.[7]
