18
19	When the young swordsman Link drew the Four Sword, he was split into four copies of himself, known as Green, Red, Blue, and Vio.
20	----
21	* BashBrothers: The Links compete with each other as often as they cooperate, but at the end of the day, they have each other's backs in the battle against evil.
22	* EstablishingCharacterMoment: The personalities of the four Links are foreshadowed when the original Link appears in Chapter One. He singlehandedly defeats a team of pirates without fear (Green), blows off his father's insistence that he work with a team (Blue), has a tender moment with Zelda where he gives her a flower (Red), and hides from both Zelda and his father without either of them knowing at first that they have an eavesdropper (Vio).
23	* FourPhilosophyEnsemble:
24	** Green is The Realist.
25	** Red is The Optimist.
26	** Blue is The Cynic.
27	** Vio is The Apathetic.
28	* FourTemperamentEnsemble:
29	** '''(Melancholic)''': Green is very focused, motivated, and almost equally as stubborn as Blue (albeit a bit nicer than him). He's courageous and determined, but can be prone to acting rash. He can be anxious and headstrong while Blue can be extremely arrogant and short-tempered, which leads to arguments between the two. He nonetheless attains the role of leader (since he's wearing green) throughout the adventure and is very driven in rescuing Zelda from the clutches of evil.
30	** '''(Sanguine)''': Red is the compassionate, optimistic, and childish Link who is usually meddling with Blue in terms of comic relief. He's shown to be very cheerful, excitable, and highly emotional. Although he can be somewhat as stubborn as the other three, he's clearly the nicest out of the four Links and usually likes to look on the bright side of things. He hates seeing the other Links fight each other and will usually speak out and try to act as the mediator, though he ends up dealing with Blue, who tends to bully him. One clear trait of his is that he's very dependent on the other three and doesn't do too well by himself. He can easily end up feeling depressed and unsure of himself when he’s all alone. He's a warm and considerate person who's a perfect foil for Blue, who rejects the others with his harsh personality.
31	** '''(Choleric)''': Blue is the arrogant, brash, and self-centered Link. Compared to the other Links, he's very short-tempered, impatient, and argumentative. He and Red are usually the comic relief of the group in which he's antagonistic towards Red's happy-go-lucky personality and sometimes resorts to hitting him. He can be terribly single-minded and comes off as being insecure. He believes himself to be the original Link (despite not wearing green) and -- out of jealousy -- questions Green's competence as a hero, gets easily flustered by Vio's condescending attitude, and constantly bullies Red. He further thinks he can do well by himself instead of cooperating with the others. Despite his rude behavior, he's deep down a loyal individual who deeply cares about the other three and is just as determined as Green in saving Zelda, along with the kingdom of Hyrule.
32	** '''(Phlegmatic)''': Vio is the analytical, calm, and thoughtful Link who plays a big role in the story because of the usage of his intellect to trick Shadow Link, learn about his weaknesses along with the grand scheme of everything, and try to put a stop to him by destroying the Mirror Of Darkness. While he can be very helpful and insightful, he can also be a tad bit condescending and arrogant. He is judgmental towards the other Links and enjoys keeping to himself instead of having to deal with constant fighting (mostly between Green and Blue). He's even manipulative when it comes to his interactions with Shadow Link and shown to be a bit of a bookworm.
33	* IWorkAlone: Deconstructed; at the beginning of the story, it's made clear Link is extremely competent when it comes to protecting Hyrule, but also has a strong tendency to work alone, disregarding the troubles he causes to his father, who leads the Knights of Hyrule. When the Four Sword divides him into four separate Links, each one representing a specific side of his personality, it turns out the ''one'' part of him they all share precisely is his stubbornness. Cue the four of them ''[[TeethClenchedTeamwork struggling]]'' to learn how to work together.
34	* MasterSwordsman: Link was a good enough prodigy with a sword that he could non-fatally take down three bandits in a split second. All four copies of him show their own prowess with the blade as well.
35	* MesACrowd: Drawing the Four Swords results in the new wielder, such as Link, split into four.
36	* WeAreStrugglingTogether: The Links compete with each other as often as they cooperate.
37	[[/folder]]
38
39	[[folder:Green]]
40	A copy of Link created by the power of the Four Sword, and the closest analogue to the original hero. "Green" embodies Link's motivation and leadership skills.
41	----
42	* BackToBackBadasses: Green puts himself and the other three Links in this position against Shadow's forces when they enter Hyrule Castle.
43	* BattleBoomerang: He gets a boomerang during the group's visit to the Village of the Blue Maiden, but he only uses it sparingly.
44	* CharacterDevelopment: He’s initially fine with working alone and doesn’t think he’s as bad as his father makes him out to be. Once he pulls the Four Sword and sees his three doppelgängers act in a similar arrogant and standoffish nature, he realizes what his father sees. He also realizes the importance of working as a team rather than being a one-man show.
45	* TheChosenZero: Blue challenges his right to be the leader, and Vio [[spoiler:believes he can do better than him with a FakeDefector scheme]].
46	* TheDeterminator: According to the VIZ Media translation, Green represents the original Link's focus and motivation.
47	* DistractedByTheSexy: When separated from the other Links, Green gets distracted by a Gerudo masseuse. It takes a bit of time for him to remember that he's supposed to be following leads on Zelda and the others.
48	* EveryoneHasStandards: When Shadow sics what appears to be a brainwashed mob of Hylian Knights against the Links, Green is appalled at the idea of actually attacking any of them. Shadow reveals that they are just suits of AnimatedArmor and mocks Green for his "pathetic" concern.
49	* HeroesPreferSwords: While each Link has a copy of the Four Sword, Green prioritizes the blade even as his peers get their hands on additional weapons.
50	%%* ImplausibleFencingPowers
51	* InformedFlaw: In the fan translation, Vio calls him the aggressive side of the original Link at the beginning; in truth, he is far less aggressive than Blue, and tries his best to keep the team together.
52	* IWorkAlone: Deconstructed; at the beginning of the story, it's made clear Link is extremely competent when it comes to protecting Hyrule, but also has a strong tendency to work alone, disregarding the troubles he causes to his father, who leads the Knights of Hyrule. When the Four Sword divides him into four separate Links, each one representing a specific side of his personality, it turns out the ''one'' part of him they all share precisely is his stubbornness. Cue the four of them ''[[TeethClenchedTeamwork struggling]]'' to learn how to work together.
53	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Before pulling the Four Sword, he’s an arrogant and self-absorbed swordsman, but he also is kind to Princess Zelda, who is also his childhood friend.
54	%%* TheKirk
55	* TeethClenchedTeamwork: At the beginning, it is very uphill work for him to lead and fight alongside the other Links.
56	[[/folder]]
57
58	[[folder:Red]]
59	A copy of Link created by the power of the Four Sword. "Red" is the innocent, kind-hearted member of the group.
60	----
61	* BratsWithSlingshots: In the battle with Stone Arrghus, he picks up a slingshot and uses it against Stone Arghus' smaller rocks. [[WhatHappenedToTheMouse It's never seen again after that.]]
62	* ButtMonkey: Blue frequently bullies him, typically by hitting his head with his hammer.
63	* DivergentCharacterEvolution: He goes from Player 2 to a sweet and emotional guy.
64	* DullEyesOfUnhappiness: Red gets these after mistaking Green and Vio for dead. He snaps out of it when Blue saves him from a monster.
65	* TheHeart: In that he's the embodiment of Link's gentle nature.
66	* HeroWorshipper: To anyone who saves him from danger, unfortunately.
67	* {{Keet}}: Let's see. He's short, cute, cries and smiles frequently, and his tunic is a very bright red.
68	* KidAppealCharacter: The most childlike of the four Links.
69	* KillItWithFire: Obtains a Fire Rod in Chapter 4, allowing him to cast fire spells.
70	* KillItWithIce: He has his Fire Rod converted into an Ice Rod late in the story.
71	* MagicKnight: On top of being a swordsman, Red gets his hand on a MagicWand that he can use to cast fire and ice spells.
72	* MagicWand: He gets a Fire Rod from a thief, and uses it as a substitute for his missing sword. He later learns that it also works as an Ice Rod.
73	* MagikarpPower: Compared to the other Links, Red needs a lot more time and experience to step up. With the Fire/Ice Rod he acquires, he becomes a full-blown MagicKnight by the second volume, and [[spoiler:plays a crucial role in saving Vio from Shadow]].
74	%%* TheMcCoy
75	* NiceGuy: Red is warm and friendly towards everyone he interacts with, even Blue.
76	* TheNicknamer: Red comes up with names for himself and the other Links based on their tunics.
77	* RealMenWearPink: Red is the most emotional and weak-willed of the four Links, and wears a pink undershirt to match, but he is still a swordsman who gets magical powers the others don’t have.
78	* TokenGoodTeammate: Although all four Links are heroes, they often bicker and quarrel with each other despite their mission. Red is the only one without any moral faults and the only one who never gets into fights with the others.
79	* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: His slingshot from Chapter 3 is totally abandoned after he's gifted the Fire Rod. Same goes for both that and the Ice Rod, really.
80	* WideEyedIdealist: He has a very optimistic view around him.
81	[[/folder]]
82
83	[[folder:Blue]]
84	A copy of Link created by the power of the Four Sword. "Blue" is the HotBlooded arrogant member of the group.
85	----
86	* BigBrotherBully: While both are technically clones of the same age, Blue is a domineering and sometimes abusive big brother analogue towards Red.
87	* BloodKnight: He is considerably more violent and more open to battle than the other Links.
88	* BlueIsCalm: Inverted. Blue is by far the most openly arrogant and hot-headed of the Links.
89	* BrutishCharacterBrutishWeapon: Blue, the most violent and hotblooded of the four Links, wields a hammer. He manages to use it to kill Stone Arrghus with a single blow. [[ButtMonkey Red's also a frequent victim of it.]]
90	* DivergentCharacterEvolution: He's much more violent and crude compared to his rather quiet Player 3 self.
91	* DopeSlap: Or rather, hammer slap. Usually happens when Red angers him.
92	* HairTriggerTemper: He's got a really short fuse, and will fly into a rage at the slightest provocation.
93	* HarmlessFreezing: Blue gets frozen in a block of ice by a Wizzrobe, but he recovers quickly after Red frees him with the Fire Rod.
94	* HotBlooded: Blue is very quick to anger and just as quick to engage in fighting.
95	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He is arrogant, hot-headed, frequently bullies Red, and constantly argues with the others. However, he actually is a very noble person deep inside, and thanks the Links for everything at the end of the story.
96	* TheLancer: In that he's the more aggressive contrast to Green.
97	* NeatFreak: He is revealed to be one of these in an omake. It's impossible for him to sleep at night unless his clothes are neatly folded and in a nice neat stack near where he's sleeping.
98	* ShootTheDog: He resorts to firing a SwordBeam at the original Link's brainwashed father, although it isn't a lethal blow.
99	%%* TheSpock
100	[[/folder]]
101
102	[[folder:Vio]]
103	A copy of Link created by the power of the Four Sword. "Vio" is TheStoic and smart guy of the group.
104	----
105	* TheAce: Vio is calm, collected, an expert archer, a top-notch swordsman, the most intelligent Link, and he knows it. [[spoiler:His overconfidence almost costs him his life when his plan to infiltrate Shadow Link's army falls through]].
106	* BadassBookworm: He's seen reading a book on Force Gems in Chapter 3, and regularly kicks ass like his fellow Links.
107	* BowAndSwordInAccord: He acquires a bow that he can use just as well as his sword.
108	* TheChessmaster: Subverted. Vio tries to be this by [[spoiler: pretending to join Shadow Link and non-fatally taking out Green, and then getting Shadow to avoid going after the Links by suggesting that they can get worn down fighting Vaati and Ganon so that they can take over Hyrule after the fighting is over. He does all of this in the hopes that he can destroy the Dark Mirror and shut down Shadow's army. However, he gets caught anyway and has to be saved by the Links]].
109	* ConsummateLiar: [[spoiler:He pulls a false FaceHeelTurn which fools everybody, including Shadow Link. Nobody sees through it, and he even fakes a fight to the death with Green]].
110	* DefrostingIceKing: He's initially very stoic and withdrawn to the point of isolation, but he warms up to the other Links over time.
111	* DivergentCharacterEvolution: He was Player 4 on the original. Here, he's a level-headed, intelligent guy.
112	* FaceHeelTurn: [[spoiler:Subverted. Vio pretends to join Shadow's side, hoping to find a way to disable his army from within. It doesn't go well for him when Shadow realizes the deception, though Vio ''did'' get confirmation about Ganon and how the Links will need to rescue Zelda to confront him]].
113	* FakeDefector: [[spoiler:He fakes a FaceHeelTurn so he can get information from the villains and destroy the Mirror of Darkness. Shadow Link, who had genuinely befriended him, doesn't take his betrayal well.]]
114	%%* GuileHero
115	* InsufferableGenius: He's the smart guy of the group ''and he knows it'', often treating the others like problem children he has to babysit, though he can usually back it up. [[spoiler:His FakeDefector plan, while effective, still hinged on him alone being able to outsmart Shadow and his army of monsters without hope of backup, and Vio is quickly overwhelmed and captured once the deception is discovered. After being rescued by the other Links, he admits that he confused being "smart" with being "wise".]]
116	* NotSoAboveItAll: Vio tries to paint himself as cooler and more collected than the other Links, but he's just as smitten by Erune as they are.
117	* NotSoSimilar: Vio notes that it was not too hard for him to [[spoiler:ingratiate himself with Shadow with a false promise to betray the heroes and help him overthrow Ganon and Vaati]], since they are both self-important schemers.
118	-->'''Vio:''' The one big difference is...for a bit of personal power...you were willing to completely betray your partners. But as a hero, I never strayed from my hopes and my goals.
119	* PurpleIsPowerful: He wears a violet tunic and hat, [[spoiler:and he is the only Link to defeat another Link in combat]].
120	* TheSmartGuy: In that he's the embodiment of Link's intelligence.
121	* TheStoic: He doesn't show much emotion.
122	* SurroundedByIdiots: Vio thinks of himself as much more mature and on the ball compared to the other Links.

125	!!!Allies
126	[[folder:Princess Zelda]]
127
128	The Princess of Hyrule, and Link's childhood friend.
129	----
130	* EleventhHourRanger: When she is set free, she combines her power with that of the Four Swords to help the heroes fight Ganon.
131	* AdaptationDyeJob: Zelda's hair is a yellow blonde, unlike her strawberry blonde game counterpart.
132	* AdaptationalHairstyleChange: This Zelda wears her hair down instead of tying it with a ribbon.
133	* ChildhoodFriends: She used to play with Link when they were little.
134	* AChildShallLeadThem: Princess Zelda rules over her kingdom as a preteen. Also counts as PrincessesRule.
135	* DefiantCaptive: Zelda does not put up with ''any'' of Shadow Link's attempts to belittle or demean her while she is held prisoner in the Palace of Winds.
136	* MoralityPet: Ultimately, [[spoiler:to Shadow Link. The [[YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre encouragement]] she gives him after his loss to the heroes convinces him to try to be a hero in his own way, for her sake]].
137	* NatureLover: She admires a wildflower Link gives her, reminiscing on how they used to roam the fields together.
138	* RightForTheWrongReasons: She has a premonition of a dark cloud approaching Hyrule, and assumes that it means that a demon will threaten the kingdom. She does not know at the time that the cloud symbolized Ganon, and not Vaati.
139	* SilkHidingSteel: While Zelda seems to be a poised young lady, it’s not beyond her to mouth off to Shadow Link himself when he tries to gloat over her predicament.
140	[[/folder]]
141
142	[[folder:Link's Father]]
143
144	The Hylian Captain of the Guard, who has a troubled relationship with his son, Link.
145	----
146	* ActionDad: Upon being temporarily brainwashed by Vaati, he is able to give all four Links a run for their money. After being freed, he manages to rally the knights to help them despite his injuries.
147	* AdaptationalAttractiveness: The Green Knight is mutated into a giant Stalfos by Vaati’s magic in the game. In the manga, he simply wears heavy armor.
148	* BadassNormal: Link's father does not have Princess Zelda's sacred power, Shadow Link's dark magic, or even the Four Sword, but he is so skilled with a sword that even Link considers himself outmatched by him.
149	* CanonCharacterAllAlong: While seemingly just a character set up to expand on Link’s life in the castle, he’s captured and eventually brainwashed into becoming the Green Knight.
150	* PapaWolf: Despite everything, he's always quick to help his son, and later Link's alter egos.
151	* RelatedInTheAdaptation: In the game, there's no indication Link was related to any of the four Royal Knights who were turned into Stalfos.
152	[[/folder]]
153
154	[[folder:Valensuela]]
155
156	A knight who was defeated by Ganon and brainwashed into being an enforcer.
157	----
158	* AndIMustScream: He hints that he was at least partially aware of his actions under Ganon's control and is horrified that he almost killed Link as the Blue Knight.
159	* BrainwashedAndCrazy: As the Blue Knight, he is a berserker who mercilessly attacks Green.
160	* CompositeCharacter: Although he is the guardian of the Blue Royal Jewel, he takes the place of the Red Knight as the enforcer of the Desert of Doubt.
161	* NamedByTheAdaptation: The Blue Knight is named Valensuela.
162	* {{Intangibility}}: Since he is in the Dark World, he is able to attack Green even though all of Green's attacks go right through him. When Green sends himself to the Dark World with a Moon Pearl, this advantage is negated.
163	* KnightlySwordAndShield: He carries a sword and shield in battle, even as the Blue Knight. Both get wrecked by the end of his fight with Green.
164	* LongHairedPrettyBoy: In his true form, Valensuela is a handsome man with shoulder-length hair.
165	* MrExposition: He reveals that there is another villain, Ganon, operating behind Vaati and Shadow Link.

170	[[folder:Shadow Link]]
171	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/shadow_link_manga.png]]
172
173	Link's doppelgänger, the kidnapper of Princess Zelda, and TheHeavy of the story.
174	----
175	* AdaptationalAttractiveness: Shadow Link looks like a regular boy as opposed to the pitch black LivingShadow he was depicted as in the video game. According to his original character sketch, he was more similar to the game version at first.
176	* AdaptationalHeroism: [[spoiler: Shadow Link]] actually redeems himself here. In the game, [[spoiler:Shadow Link]] was a monster who was MadeOfEvil per Zelda's own words, and who used countless copies of himself from the Dark Mirror to cause trouble all across Hyrule until they were defeated once and for all by Link with Zelda's help. In the manga, [[spoiler:Shadow Link redeems himself by smashing the Dark Mirror, an action that results in the defeat of Vaati, but also ends in his undoing too]].
177	* AdaptationalWimp: He loses most of his weapons and abilities from the game, including his signature MesACrowd power. And while his game counterpart could revive himself at full strength using the Dark Mirror, he can barely move after his first resurrection.
178	* AdaptationDistillation: The game and the manga flip-flop on these. In the game, he has a whole slew of abilities, but is given no backstory. In the manga, he's a fully-fleshed out character, but has very few of the abilities he had in the game.
179	* BadBoss: Shadow Link pretends to play with the small Stone Arrghus he uses as a scout before crushing it in his hand and throwing it into the sky.
180	* BerserkButton: He ''hates'' being referred to as "just a shadow."
181	-->'''Shadow:''' ''(After throwing Blue aside with an energy beam)'' Don't ever '''mock''' the shadows! You think they're weak and insubstantial!!
182	* DarkIsNotEvil: [[spoiler: Here, it turns out he's not really that evil.]]
183	%%* DeadpanSnarker: In the manga.
184	* DiscOneFinalBoss: Shadow Link serves as TheHeavy for most of the story, but the Links defeat him right before they move on to Vaati and Ganon.
185	* DragonRider: He has a dragon as a mount, as first seen in the attack on Hyrule Castle.
186	* EvilTwin: It's explained that he is the literal shadow of Link given physical form.
187	* EasilyForgiven: [[spoiler: Despite the fact he burnt down towns in Chapter 8 and kickstarted most of the overall conflict in the manga, in Chapter 12, the Links all agree that Shadow was never really evil and only caused trouble because he was lonely.]]
188	* FreudianExcuse: [[spoiler:In Chapter 12, he only caused trouble due to [[IJustWantToBeLoved being lonely.]]]]
189	* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:Shadow]] gets a pep talk from Zelda after he regenerates from his fight with the Links, noting that he doesn't have to be so different from them.
190	* HeroicSacrifice: In the end, [[spoiler:while the four Links manage to hurt him, Vaati proves unstoppable while the Dark Mirror is around. Thus, Shadow smashes it even though it means he'll die along with Vaati]].
191	* HumanoidAbomination: Shadow Link plays this straighter than his game counterpart. Although takes the form of a healthy, flesh-and-blood copy of Link, he is referred to as a "phantom hero" created by Ganon. When he's feeling particularly angry, he sports fangs and claws.
192	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: [[spoiler:[[YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre After Zelda tries to cheer him up,]] he disguises himself as Vio and leads the others to her. When they're ambushed, he takes matters into his own hands and smashes the Dark Mirror himself, [[HeroicSacrifice knowing full well what that will do to him]] (see RedemptionEqualsDeath below).]]
193	* JokeCharacter: Is the main character of the manga {{omake}}s with him as TheProtagonist. With weird plots as him having a blog and [[BlatantLies lying on it that he has a girlfriend he regularly takes to the amusement park]], and being a {{hikikomori}} ([[JustifiedTrope this is due to the fact he can't really go out in daylight]]). He also becomes a shopaholic.
194	* {{Intangibility}}: Shadow Link allows attacks to go straight through him without taking damage. The four Links only beat him when they use their newly acquired SwordBeam on him.
195	* KickTheDog: Shadow Link disguises himself as a wounded Link and listens to his father's anguished cries for a few seconds before dropping the guise and sending him to the Dark World.
196	* LivingShadow: '''Duh.'''
197	* PungeonMaster: Seems to be one in the VIZ Media translation, with him stating in Chapter 2 "There's a new Link in this chain!"
198	* RedemptionEqualsDeath: [[spoiler:His breaking of the Dark Mirror causes his own death]].
199	* SlasherSmile: He has a really creepy one when things are going his way.
200	* SmugSnake: In Chapter 6, he taunts Zelda about her hopeless scenario. [[ShutUpHannibal She's quick to retort back, though, causing him to get frustrated and leave.]]
201	* TheStarscream: He doesn't care for the idea of Vaati or Ganon's rule, [[spoiler:but doesn't consider plotting against them until Vio suggests the plan of using Zelda's power to destroy Ganon]]. He's beaten by the Links before his plans get off the ground, however.
202	* VillainForgotToLevelGrind: While he's able to defeat the four Links easily in their first fight, by the time he fights them again, they've gotten strong enough to [[spoiler:tear him to shreds with the Four Sword's magic.]]
203	* WeaksauceWeakness: Shadow Link is repulsed by light to the extent that even the glow of a fairy is enough to make him retreat.
204	* WhosLaughingNow:
205	-->'''Shadow:''' [[spoiler:Who's in control now, Vaati? '''WHO?!''']]
206	[[/folder]]
207
208	[[folder:Vaati]]
209
210	A powerful demon that once terrorized Hyrule before he was sealed in the Four Sword.
211	----
212	* AdaptationalBadass: In the original game, Vaati was limited to his wind-based abilities and energy blasts. In the manga, he can change his size and shape at will to become a kaiju-sized monster, and can instantly heal from any wound. The only way to kill him is to destroy the Dark Mirror.
213	* DecoyDamsel: Vaati shapeshifts into Princess Zelda when trying to pit the Links and [[spoiler:their mind-controlled father against each other]]. However, the latter regains enough self-control to throw a dagger at Vaati, dispelling the glamour.
214	* DiesDifferentlyInTheAdaptation: In the game, he is slain by the Links. Here, he dies when [[spoiler: Shadow Link breaks the Dark Mirror]].
215	* EvilCannotComprehendGood: Vaati is completely aghast that [[spoiler:Shadow Link is willing to sacrifice himself to destroy him and save the Links]].
216	* GeniusBruiser: Besides his considerable magic power, [[spoiler:Vaati is a crafty enough DecoyDamsel to set the Links against their father]].
217	* {{Golem}}: When he is initially freed from the Four Sword’s seal, he initially appears as an enormous humanoid made of stone.
218	* HealingFactor: He can regenerate from any blow from any weapon, even the Four Sword. Only magic seals [[spoiler:or the destruction of the Dark Mirror]] can stop him.
219	* HopelessBossFight: The fight with him in the manga proves to be this because the Dark Mirror made him impossible to kill. [[spoiler:He only dies when Shadow Link destroys it]].
220	[[/folder]]
221
222	[[folder:Ganon]]
223
224	A former Gerudo who attained demonhood.
225	----
226	* AdaptationalWimp: This Ganon is a PostFinalBoss after the fight with Vaati, with Zelda and the Links making short work of him.
227	* BigBadWannabe: He is a powerful demon who secretly masterminded Vaati and Shadow Link’s campaign, but his performance against the heroes of the Four Sword prove he's nowhere near as powerful as he thinks.
228	* DevilsPitchfork: Subverted. He carries his signature trident, but relies on his magic to attack the Links.
229	* SealedEvilInACan: He gets sealed inside the Four Sword at the end of the story
230	* ShockAndAwe: He uses a lightning spell to attack the Links.
231	* ThisCannotBe: He keeps shouting that he can never be sealed in the Four Sword even as the Links and Zelda are ensuring just that.
232	[[/folder]]
233
234	!!Others
235
236	[[folder:Erune]]
237
238	A young girl who lives in the Village of the Blue Maiden.
239	----
240	* CanonForeigner: Erune is an original character created for the manga.
241	* [[ChickMagnet Dude Magnet]]: All four Links find Erune cute.

252	* AdaptationalVillainy: While Tingle did try to steal Force Gems in the game, his manga counterpart outright leaves Green to die at the hands of a Hinox to get away with a Force Gem.

256	* RedundantResearcher: He tries to give Green information on Force Gems that he already knows about.
257	* SkewedPriorities: Tingle lets his quest to find Force Gems outweigh everything else, even his own safety. He has zero interest in anything else.

259	* UngratefulBastard: In his first appearance, Green saves him after he gets stuck under a boulder. When a Hinox attacks, Tingle grabs a Force Gem and bolts.
