LOZ OCS! (yippee!)

happy Easter everyone!

My Take on the Hero of Time's Personality (Adult Era - 19 Years Old)

I don't really see many characterizations of Time being arrogant besides like...joke videos on YT and shitposts, I personally think he's a bit of an ass in a way that Revali is, annoying but loveable. I think he'd be arrogant, partially because as a kid he was made fun of by the other Kokiri (though mainly Mido and his gang) for not having a fairy and dreaming of leaving the forest, something that was strictly forbidden to the others because they would perish. Since self-confidence isn't much of a concept to younger children, I feel as if he didn't understand why he felt bad about being different and thus, developed insecurity and low self-esteem. Another reason for his arrogance is probably because he doesn't want to be seen as weak. He was the only one that experienced the time jump between 'current' and 'future' Hyrule, but for him they were empty years. He wanted to seem like he had actually did something in those 7 years, so he tries to show off his skills so he doesn't seem like a fraud to himself, and weak to those around him, especially his enemies.

Annnnywho here's the blurb of his actual personality I came up for him, I kinda put it as a summary:

Link is an adventurous spirit, always trying to find new places to see and new things to do. Even so, he’s not good at navigating, and oftentimes gets stuck in a situation he threw himself in without thinking.

Link is also very impulsive, and he tends to say things he may (or may not) mean to people. He likes to joke around a lot, even if he’s supposed to be serious, due to the fact he still has the immaturity (and some innocence) of a child from the 7 year time skip from pulling the Master Sword.

Link is quite confident in himself as well, and he often likes showing off his various skills, even if he’s not as good at them as he chooses to believe.

Despite these traits that could come off as annoying or negative, he still will help others in need, even if it's begrudgingly so. He has a very strong sense of justice, as he fights with his heart and soul to bring an end to the darkness and evil that has taken its hold on Hyrule.

Link cares about the people around him genuinely, even if it doesn’t seem to be the case for some people, or if he jokes about or around them a lot. He tries his best to consider everyone’s well-being when he does things, though he doesn’t do a good job at it most of the time.

Link sometimes exhausts himself to finish something if he’s close to reaching a goal, as his thoughts are that ‘I’m just that close, I might as well finish’.

Link is also quite intelligent, even behind his seemingly dense act he puts up sometimes if he just doesn’t want to do something. He sometimes doesn’t think about his surroundings, and often misjudges how far things are from him, even with his perfectly normal eyesight. Oddly enough, he is overcome with fear in a lot of situations, but as the bearer of the Triforce of Courage, it gives him the strength to pull through and continue fighting, no matter how scared he may be.

When he is scared, he hides it behind a confident bravado, seemingly unfazed and fearless, despite the fear and anxiety within.

Link also has a softer, more relaxed side, that usually shows when he’s alone, out in Hyrule field, or at Lon Lon Ranch, oftentimes helping Malon with the horses. (He…also goes there to see her anyway.)

Link gets fired up in an angry determination when he sees that the people he cares about are in potential danger, or when Kokiri Forest has been overrun by monsters.

Overall, Link is a slightly immature jokester with a heart of gold.

I think I'll be posting the Hero of the Wild next :)

I still really like Age of Calamity in spite of its canon divergence, because nothing brings me more joy than seeing glimpses of what the Kingdom of Hyrule was like before so much of it was vaporized!!

I read every little mission/quest text and it just makes me smile. Reading (wholesome) stories about random citizens!! Little cultural details and how different tribes interacted with each other, what the Sheikah-Royal family relationship was like...

It gave us a surface-level form of the one thing I secretly hoped TotK would let us do, which is to explore this iteration of the kingdom while it was intact. The stone tablets in Tears were so much fun but GODSSS I wish they'd have let us explore ancient Hyrule instead of just the ruins of some of it in the sky and depths.

I am after all a nerd about these games so it really is the small stuff that feeds my heart the most <33

I IMMEDIATELY LAUGHED HELP

This Week's Updates:

The Legend of Zelda: History of Hyrule-- A detailed and comprehensive look into the chronological order and history of the realm of Hyrule.

Fate Unbound: Chapter 2 Teaser-- Sheik leads Link and Asahi on a journey to the Temple of Time, but something is following them...

The Ballad: A Lyra Original Teaser-- A side-project heavily inspired by The Legend of Zelda. Don't expect steady updates from this one right now, it's still in its early stages of drafting/design and I don't really know how people will react to it. If it's well-received I may update regularly.

Expect these between Friday-Monday!

Random Headcanon’s Go! (Day 1)

listing a HC for each one of my fandoms!!

Legend of Zelda:

BOTW: Link can’t pet dogs and puppies because he has a mild allergy to them. Even so, Link still can’t help but pet them because of Wolfie. Give the poor man some tissues…

Undertale:

Alphys accidentally introduced Papyrus to Vocaloid. He has made his own personal Miku named ‘Cooler Miku.’ It’s just Miku decorated with Papyrus merchandise from fan gamer.

Deltarune:

Deltarune is tomorrow.

…

Ok in all seriousness it’s actually that Kris didn’t even have like, any friends before the events of Deltarune. Like, they literally had nobody, besides when Asriel would email them on the dinky old computer in the bedroom.

Pokèmon:

Silver has numerous stitches on his hands from Totodile biting him. Whenever he’d try to pick her up, she’d bite his hand, and stay there as Silver would start yelling at her to get off his hand. Totodile finds this amusing and does it often, and this is also the reason why Silver usually keeps Totodile in her Pokéball.

Sonic The Hedgehog:

Maria is a Robnik so like…she’d want to build robots to help people, she used to on the ark, and like, Tails also makes inventions to help people and so he reminds Shadow of Maria and takes his grief out on Tails. (Sorry buddy-)

Cave Story:

Curly Brace is built by the Doctor.

Friday Night Funkin:

BF is hyper fixated on sonic and puts little Easter eggs to the franchise’s music in to songs he sings against his opponents. He was deeply traumatized by the Sonic.EXE mod but acted like it didn’t bother him.
