Link

This page contains spoilers.

1st Appearence: The Legend of Zelda

Origin: There is no "True Link," almost every game in the Zelda series has a different Link. Link from the Ocarina of Time/Majora's Mask is the most notable. In this story, a Hylian mother entrusted Link to the Great Deku Tree where he was raised as a Kokori. Link is also the wielder of the Triforce of Courage. After defeating Ganondorf in the Ocarina of Time, the Zelda universe split into three timelines. The flooding of Hyrule, (The Wind Waker) The fall of Hyrule, (The Legend of Zelda NES), and Link leaving Hyrule (Majora's Mask)

Advantages
Equipment: Link has thousands of different weapons in his arsenal

Sword: Link's main weapon; he uses it for melee combat

Bow & Arrow: This is probably one of Link's most useful tools, as it is used to solve most puzzles

Magic: Link has many forms of magic; Din's Fire, Nyrue's Love, Forare's Wind and more

Clawshot/Hookshot: Link uses this to grab far-away targets and either stun them, or pull him towards it

Courage: Link is very curageous and is hardly afraid of anything

Disadvantages (Weaknesses)
Not Very Bright: despite being the hero of time/winds, Link has a problem with thinking things through. For example, in the Ocarina of Time, Link forgot to think that opening the door of time would let Ganondorf succeed in taking over Hyrule

Underestimation: another disadvantage of Link is that he underestimates his opponents. Once, Link tried to keep Ganondorf from finding Zelda, only to be beaten in one blast
