Race

This has gone on far too long, and it is clear neither of us will change our views. I won't change any of their races until I can persuade you, as you have authority over me.

Page 108 of Creating a Champion confirms the Yiga have black hair. They are clearly Sheikah, as can be seen by their magical abilities, and page 107, that contains the line "The Yiga Clan (Page 108) is also made up of Sheikah". I know it says on page 101 that they are characterised by white hair, but because of this black hair is not out of the question. Merely bearing some resemblance to the folk of Lurelin Village proves nothing as it is not fact and Ralera, a pale-skinned Hylian, is a native of Lurelin Village. (A similar argument can be formed for Jerrin and Granté, which is that Skyward Sword Impa was blonde, and met very early on, meaning she will be very pure. The Sheikah nose implant was a mere joke she cracked, and shouldn't be included in any arguments, for or against. In Robbie's Memoirs she is called a young woman at the age of 40, showing she ages like a Sheikah, and is affiliated closely with Impa.[1] You can wake her up and meet her before she can put her face on, and she still doesn't look elderly.)

A quote from Sagessa[2] explicitly states that the clothing seen is Sheikah-exclusive, and other races do not have permission to use them. It is true that Sagessa is Hylian, and not an expert on Sheikah lifestyle, but she is backed up by Mellie.[3] As well as that, page 107 of Creating a Champion informs us that Sheikah wear clothing that distinguishes them from other characters. "I gave their outfits a very Japanese aesthetic so you could distinguish them from other characters in the game at a glance."

I many be able to provide more information if necessary, but I hope you will ponder over the points I have made. I am sorry for all the hassle this has caused, but I stand firmly by what I believe. Argentum kurodil (talk) 11:54, 23 January 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  1. "Days and months came and went. Before I even realized it, I'd reached the ripe age of 90. I would have been lost in my work even then... But around that time, a young woman named Jerrin arrived. She'd first trained with Dr. Purah, then Lady Impa had sent her to aid me." — Robbie's Memoirs (Breath of the Wild)
  2. "The folks in Kakariko Village have really amazing clothes that let them work out in the rain with no problem. Amazing! But only the Sheikah people can wear 'em, so they won't sell us any..." — Sagessa (Breath of the Wild)
  3. "Look at you, out in the rain with no umbrella! I'd lend you mine, but it's actually a special umbrella... Only members of the Sheikah tribe are permitted to use it. Sorry... Please mind you don't catch a cold, OK?" — Mellie (Breath of the Wild)
