Forgotten Heroes Live On

((YOOOOO LINK AND ZELDA AND JON AND DANY YOOOOOOOOOOOOOO))

Link is ISFP (the Composer), which is made obvious by his tendency to live in the moment and be easy-going.  He dislikes confrontations but also tends to be very impulsive - not the best combination.  Link's disposition varies between charming and friendly to aloof and detached, depending on his relationship with someone.  He has the potential to be fiercely competitive when he wants to be, and this serves him well in a fight, fostering lucky "gut" feelings and a willingness to take risks.  He's able to practice playing an instrument or honing a favoured skill for hours on end, not so much for practice but simply for the joy of the experience.

Alistair from Dragon Age: Origins

Harry Potter from Harry Potter ((yooooo))

Link from The Legend of Zelda ((obviously))

Jon Snow from A Song of Ice and Fire

Name: Link St. John Smythe

Age: 19

Alignment: Lawful Good

Sexual preference: Asexual, panromantic

Religion: Though he questions his faith daily, he believes in the golden goddesses.

Star sign: April 16, Aries.  Sums him up about right.

Languages spoken: Hylian, and while fluent he stumbles over his words often.  He's got a vague understanding of Ancient Hylian, but only in so much as the words look familiar to him, sometimes.  It's complicated.

Vices: Stubborn, reckless, thick-headed at times, rash, selfless to the point of idiocy, self-conscious at times, thinks he's a coward if he's not risking his neck.

Virtues: Brave, loyal, level-headed, friendly, impeccable mental fortitude, protective, forgiving, always there when you need him most.

Occupation: Professional farm boy.  No, seriously.

What skills do they use for that occupation?: As he's been doing it for many years, Link meets all the physical requirements for a job involving strenuous work on Lon Lon Ranch.  Before that, however, he worked part-time assisting his uncle in the smithy, so he has some experience there as well.

Describe their father: Peter Gallagher, a lowborn knight.  Not a bad bone in his body, the most wayward thing he ever did was wooing Clarissa.  He married her after discovering she was pregnant with his child.  He later died in a battle where he was fighting for the freedom of non-humans.

Link was raised by Peter's older brother Ezekiel, referred to as "Uncle Zeke".  While his bedside manner was lacking more often than not, he was a solid father figure for Link and loved him dearly.  After contracting a sickness, Zeke died when Link was thirteen.

Describe their mother: Clarissa St. John Smythe, a pianist born into a wealthy family.  Good at working with her hands, graceful in her movements.  She married below her class, causing her family to disinherit her.  The news that her husband had been killed did not sit well with her, and she died giving birth to her only son, Link.

Compulsion and addictions: None.

Phobias and fears: Losing his loved ones.  Right now he's a bit afraid of his dreams as well.

4/10

9/10

In his efforts to get as far away from Zelda as possible, Link had lost sight of Malon in the crowd.  It wasn’t until he found her, standing idly near the food tables, that the first shot rang out above the noise.  Link nearly jumped out of his skin, moving to grasp Malon’s hand to pull her closer to him as disorder ensued.  Suddenly, the crowd came to a standstill and Link was able to see through the gaps in the partygoers.

A masked man in black he did not recognize stood with a Gerudo woman he later recognized as Jasdaë, the princess held tightly in the man’s grasp.  Link’s stomach dropped when he caught sight of the gun in his hands.  His heart pounding in his chest, he watched with bated breath as the man gave an ominous speech, his words resounding off the walls of the now silent ballroom.  There was a power in his words that Link found himself strangely drawn to, a sort of pull he couldn’t ignore.

Do not serve a false king.

The shots rang out again, and suddenly the princess was thrown to the floor and the panicked dancers were scattering every which way.  Link instinctively wrapped an arm around Malon’s waist, pulling her tightly against him; if they were getting out of here, they were getting out of here together, goddesses be damned.

PLACE

What’s their location when the protagonist meets them?

Link is generally found on Lon Lon Ranch or the streets of the Eastern District.  If he’s in the stables, he’ll either be attending to one of the horses or passed out on the nearest bale of hay.

CLOTHES

What clothes are they always wearing?

If he’s out and about, Link will be wearing a green vest – arguably the nicest piece of clothing he owns.  If he’s at work, however, he’ll likely be wearing a torn shirt and general work clothes.

CHARACTER THEME

When the protag talks to your character, what song is playing?

This.

IDLE ANIMATIONS

When your character is idle, what do they do?

He fidgets a lot; if he’s not walking around or doing something – such as tending to one of the horses or his chores on the ranch – he’ll likely be scratching his head, rubbing the back of his neck, or shoving his hands in his pockets.

ACTIVE ANIMATIONS

When your character is activated by the protag, what gestures do they make while they talk? How do they stand?

Link glances around a lot, especially if he’s not familiar with the protagonist.  He’ll shuffle his feet awkwardly at least once and cross his arms over his chest if he doesn’t like where the conversation is going.  If he’s friendly with the protagonist, expect lots of blushing and awkward smiles.

SOUNDS

When your character is initiated into conversation, what sound do they make before and during the conversation?

Regardless of his relationship with them, Link will always greet the protagonist with a grunt, a noncommittal “Huh?” or a general “Hullo”.  This is mostly because his tendency to daydream leaves him perpetually startled by the protagonist’s presence.

SIDE QUESTS

Pick five side quests they would give the protag. Also include rewards, if you like.

Helping him out with his ranch chores, to which Link will reward the protagonist with a small sum.

A rather long-winded quest involving messages and flowers to be delivered to a particular young lady.  Another small sum for helping keep Link’s love life alive.

There’s a delivery to be made in the Southern District, but with the recent gang activity Link isn’t sure he can defend himself and his cargo at the same time.

Link needs help busting a few of his rebel friends out of prison.  He accompanies the protagonist through a night of violence and lockpicking.  He gifts them with his sword before vanishing from the game for a period of time.

After returning from his brief period spent lying low, Link needs the protagonist to deliver a letter to the Princess Zelda, regarding some strange dreams he’s been having in the hopes of arranging a meeting time.  Link gifts the protagonist with an old pendant, “A small token, but it’s the most valuable thing I can offer you.”

CONVERSATIONS

Give 1-3 samples of dialogue.

“Oh… hullo.  I don’t suppose you could give me a hand with something?”

>Yes

“Really?  I mean… okay, good.”

>No
