Link (Breath of the Wild)

## Summary

With no memory of his past, **Link** wakes up in The Shrine of Resurrection. He is given the Sheikah Slate and indirectly tasked by an old man, in pursuit of a paraglider which can help him off the Great Plateau. Soon, he finds that this old man was the spirit of King Rhoam, father of Princess Zelda, who explains the tragedy that befell Hyrule before his 100 year sleep, due to the resurrection of Ganon.

Soon, Link finds out the details surrounding his past. A chosen champion, capable of wielding the Master Sword, he, Zelda and his fellow champions are tasked with defeating Calamity Ganon. This unfortunately leads to Calamity Ganon turning the Guardians and Divine Beasts against them, leading to all the other Champions' deaths. Link is the only one to survive and is placed in the Shrine of Resurrection for 100 years, while Zelda holds off Calamity Ganon.

With Link's objective made clear, he fearlessly commits himself to avert the crisis. Link takes up the Master Sword once again, then setting out to free the Divine Beasts, and put an end to Calamity Ganon.

**Gender:** Male

**Age:** 117, 17 physically

**Classification:** Hylian, Hero of Hyrule, the Master Sword's chosen wielder

**Powers and Abilities:** Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Enhanced Senses (All Hylians have heightened senses), Power Nullification (Of magic with the Master Sword) and Attack Reflection (Reflected a Guardian’s laser with a pot lid) | As before, plus Acrobatics (Does multiple flips and acrobatics when avoiding or using attacks), Perception Manipulation (He can slow down his perception of time), Danmaku (Some of his bows fire three to five arrows at once and he can combine this with Bullet Time), Healing and Statistics Amplification (With food, Meals, Elixirs etc), Magic Materialization (Can materialize Remote Bombs with the Sheikah Slate), Magnetism Manipulation (With Magnesis Rune), Time Stop (With Stasis Rune), Ice Manipulation (With Cryonis Rune), Electricity Manipulation and Paralysis Inducement (With Urbosa's Fury), Forcefield Creation (With Daruk's Protection), Resurrection (With Mipha's Grace and fairies), Air Manipulation (With Revali's Gale), Can see invisible beings, Teleportation to Shrines, Tech Labs and Divine Beasts, Elemental Manipulation (With Fire, Ice and Shock Arrows), Summoning of bombs, the Master Cycle Zero and an invisible wolf, Expert Marksman, Void Manipulation and Existence Erasure (Via Ancient Arrows), Animal Manipulation (Can befriend and ride wild horses in seconds), Information Analysis (Via Hyrule Compendium), Resistance to Electricity (Thunder Helm), Heat (Desert Voe Armour), Fire (Flamebreaker Armour), Cold and Ice (Snowquill Armour), and Magic (Master Sword)

**Attack Potency: Multi-Solar System level**, likely **higher** (Not much is known due to exposure only being flashbacks. He, however, wields the Master Sword, which has previously defeated opponents such as Ghirahim and Zant, who should easily outclass the Wind Fish due to their nature) | At least **Universe level+** (Defeated Calamity Ganon, who is the purest incarnation of Demise's hatred. Due to his "pure reincarnation", Calamity Ganon should easily outclass Ganondorf even at his peak. Said Demise required the entire Triforce to kill even his suppressed form, and the latter artifact is superior to Majora by a large degree), Ancient Arrows completely ignore durability, utterly erasing the target from existence without trace.

**Speed:** Possibly **FTL** (Should scale to Link's that can dodge Beamos and light arrows) | **Massively FTL** (Lightning appears virtually frozen to him during Flurry Rush or Bullet Time, when he moves his fastest), possibly **Infinite** (Via scaling to Demise)

**Lifting Strength: Class 100**, likely **higher** (scaling from other lesser Links) | **Class T** (Should be no weaker than his Wind Waker counterpart)

**Striking Strength: Multi-Solar System Class**, likely **higher** | At least **Universal+**

**Durability: Multi-Solar System level**, likely **higher** | At least **Universe level+**

**Stamina:** At least High (Survived the Calamity for an extended period of time before finally going down. Very competent climber and sprinter, and can deal with multiple guardians. Should be no less resilient, if not more so, than the other Links)

**Range:** Extended Melee Range with the Master Sword and other weapons, Thousands of Kilometers with ranged weapons

**Standard Equipment:** Master Sword | As before, and Sheikah Slate, Urbosa's Fury, Daruk's Protection, Mipha's Grace, Revali's Gale. Various clothing and weapons

**Intelligence:** At least Gifted (Breath of the Wild Link is absurdly skilled, adaptive and resourceful. Learns weapons and new skills in minimal time, and quickly recovered from amnesia's effects on his overall combat prowess. Link is very, very skilled with the Master Sword and Bows especially. In a relatively minimal space of time. Link had freed all four Divine Beasts, re-obtained his memories, and was able to defeat Calamity Ganon thereafter. Potential alternate timelines show Link can do this without even freeing the Divine Beasts. Is likely the most skilled Link of them all due to his sheer adaptability)

**Weaknesses:** Described by Zelda as being reckless | Champion Abilities have long cooldowns, however the upgraded versions have a far shorter cooldown period. Information Analysis requires photographing something, making it impractical to use up-close. Enemies fueled by malice (Blights, Guardians, Calamity Ganon) resist Ancient Arrows, only taking heavy damage from them, but this is a niche drawback.

**Notable Attacks/Techniques:**

* **Daruk's Protection:** Creates a glowing barrier around himself that allows him to protect himself against three attacks, no matter how powerful they are. Can reflect Guardian lasers.

* **Urbosa's Fury:** Summons thunderbolts from the sky to cause heavy damage to foes and temporarily paralyze them.

* **Mipha's Grace:** Revives himself when he loses all his Hearts. Refills all his Hearts and gives him five Bonus Hearts.

* **Revali's Gale:** Summons a vertical wind shaft and uses it to fly upwards with his Paraglider.

* **Flurry Rush:** After dodging an attack with the right timing, Link will speed up dramatically and launch a swift barrage of attacks at his opponent.
* **Bullet Time:** Upon drawing his bow in air, Link's surroundings slow down in front of him, which allows him to fit in a far greater number of, and far more precise, arrow shots.

**Key: Pre-Calamity** | **Rebirth**
