	'''Masks:''' Depending on the game a mask can have a variety of abilities and powers. Beginning with the Bunny Hood in ''Ocarina of Time'' which does nothing for Link but when traded to one NPC it makes them run like a bat out of hell, most of the masks do nothing and the few that do are fairly minor. The next game, ''Majora's Mask'', made masks vitally important (the Bunny Hood gives him super speed), with some granting Link the ability to transform into another form while most give him new abilities such as literally blowing up (taking damage in the process even). Masks continued to make varied appearances in future games up to even ''Breath of the Wild'' where they are a costume piece that confuses certain enemies depending on the mask worn.

	'''Trading Sequence Items:''' These items almost never help link directly, merely being small parts of a semi-long quest in games which will reward Link with something at the end of it with an item that will help him such as a big ass sword or a magnifying lens needed to read one magic book in the game. Most TTRPG Zelda games will omit these unless the GM is a massive prick.

Most TTRPG Zelda games will omit these unless the GM is a massive prick.

	'''Bottles:''' Filled with milk, water, fish, fairies or otherwise, these objects are somewhat notorious in canon since for whatever reason they seem almost indestructible, incapable of breaking and can often be used in place of a sword to smack balls of energy tossed at Link by his foes. That's right, [[What\|a little glass bottle is able to tennis whack a fucking lightning ball around like it is nothing.]] Also, despite being, you know, glass bottles, there are usually only about four that can be found anywhere in the world, and Link usually has an easier time getting his hands on fucking ''explosives''. Breath of the Wild is the first 3D game to stop using them since what Link carries is only limited by his inventory space.

	'''Bombs:''' One Link's most used items, you use them to blow open walls or other specific locations meant to be blasted. Sometimes Link gets a type of super powerful bomb that he can only carry one at a time that is meant to blast open a super tough target. Certain enemies have a vulnerability to bombs that are exploited by throwing the bomb at them or placing it where they will get too close. '''Breath of the Wild''' stopped using traditional bombs, however, the Sheikah Slate has a feature that takes their place where Link creates a bomb. Unlike in older games these don't have fuses and are detonated remotely; damage against enemies is nerfed but they're still great for stuns/knockbacks and are commonly used in various physics puzzles. Besides man-made bombs, bomb ''flowers'' show up periodically in games as a renewable source of bombs as needed, though in every game they’re featured with the exception of Tears of the Kingdom, they cannot be stored in Link’s inventory.

	'''Kokiri:''' Only appearing in ''Ocarina of Time'', the Kokiri are essentially the [[gnome]]s of Hyrule; forest spirits who look like unaging Hylian [[Loli\|children]]. They are a MAJOR component to the story of ''Ocarina of Time'' with one Kokiri named Saria, in particular, being one of the [[Sage\|Sages]] needed to help stop Ganondorf. They may or may not be evolved from the Kikwi beings seen in ''Skyward Sword''.

They may or may not be evolved from the Kikwi beings seen in ''Skyward Sword''.

	'''Koroks:''' Debuting in ''The Wind Waker'', these small humanoid plants are implied to be the Kokiri, or at least their descendants, who forsook their more humanoid appearance. They've only appeared in ''The Wind Waker'' and ''Breath of the Wild''. They play a major role in ''The Wind Waker'' but the vast majority of their being in ''Breath of the Wild'' is little more than filler content that, once completed entirely, rewards the player with [[What\|a stylized golden pile of shit]].

	'''Rito:''' Another race that debuted in ''The Wind Waker'' before making a surprise return in ''Breath of the Wild'', the Rito are almost different races in each appearance. In ''Wind Waker'', they appear as humans with retractile wings on their arms and beak-like noses and are implied to be the descendants of the Zora after the fish-people were changed to not be allowed to linger in Hyrule after it was flooded. In ''Breath of the Wild'', they are straight up [[aarakocra\|humanoid birds]] and are simply the inhabitants of the cold northern mountain regions, with no connections to the Zora as far as we know.

	A more recent fan game that's gained some popularity is ''Reclaim the Wild'' which draws most of its ideas and setting lore from Breath of the Wild, though with some notable exceptions such as playable Twili characters. The game is a skill-based one, with a number of skills each tied to one of the Triforces (Power, Wisdom and Courage). Completing major tasks such as quests or defeating powerful foes awards the player [[XP\|Tokens of Heroism]] they can use to level up these skills or other attributes such as Stamina and Health.

	'''The Sheikah Slate:''' Introduced in Breath of the Wild, this multitool is incredible. It is capable of summoning bombs, freezing objects (and enemies) for short periods of time, conjuring pillars of ice from nearly every watery surface in-game, marking locations on your map, taking pictures, calling a magical and ancient motorcycle, and is also the game's menu screen to access weapons, armor, gear and quest logs. Used in combination with the wide variety of objects that the Sheikah Slate can interact with, creative players will be able to use it to not only solve complex puzzles but also for ambushing enemies.

			'''The Right Arm:''' Introduced in Tears of the Kingdom, and this game's version of the Sheikah Slate. In some ways, it's more incredible than the Sheikah Slate with the sheer levels of warcrimes you can create with it. It can lift massive objects, fuse them together into functional vehicles and weapons of mass destruction, fuse stuff with weapons to make them stronger, it allows you to phase through things as long as they're above you, recreate any monstrosity you've created and can even stop and reverse the flow of time of its target. It's also the severed arm of Rauru, who used the arm's full power to seal Ganondorf for 10,000 years. His ghost replaces Link's Malice-burned arm with it.

	'''The Ocarina of Time:''' A musical instrument that gives its name to one of the most popular video games of all time. Playing various notes on it can do all sorts of magical effects, time manipulation being merely one of them. Songs can call your horse to you, summon a rainstorm, warp Link to a number of locations on the map, as well as wake up and put people to sleep (depending on the game).

	*'''Tears of the Kingdom''' - The sequel to Breath of the Wild. Takes place a few years after BotW, with Link also travelling to some floating islands in the sky and into Hyrule's version of the [[Underdark]]. Oh, and Link gets new hand-based magic powers that allow him to take several items and fuse them together into a new item such as a weapon or boat, fly upwards through solid objects most of the time, and reverse time on many objects to send them back from where they were when he activates the power. The game also follows up on characters from the previous game (except for Kass who is mysteriously completely absent from the game) and goes DEEP into lore. Beyond that, though, the gameplay is roughly 90% the same as the previous game in regards to a lot of mechanics (since it was built on the same engine) and there are still a massive number of shrines and Koroks to find to expand your resources, as well as a new battery mechanic that powers many of the items Link can make/use now. Despite being called just $70 DLC, it takes what the previous game did well and does more. Also, when we say the game is fuck huge we mean it. Not only does it have all the same land as the previous game, but add to that the Sky Archipelago and the Depths, and you've got a significant amount of verticality to contend with. Seriously, you can go 60+ hours in and feel like you've barely done anything.		*'''Tears of the Kingdom''' - The sequel to Breath of the Wild.

	*'''Hyrule Warriors''' and '''Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity''' - A spinoff series of games by Koei Tecmo modelled on their ''Dynasty Warriors'' games. In the original Hyrule Warriors game, a mysterious sorceress named Cia fucks with all of the timelines (yes, all of them) after getting corrupted by darkness after she starts straight up lusting after all of the Links in the timelines. That's right, she gets so fucking horny for Link's ass she throws all of the timelines out of whack to try to sleep with him.		*'''Hyrule Warriors''' and '''Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity''' - A spinoff series of games by Koei Tecmo modelled on their ''Dynasty Warriors'' games.

	'''Kokiri:''' Only appearing in ''Ocarina of Time'', the Kokiri are essentially the [[gnome]]s of Hyrule; forest spirits who look like unaging Hylian [[Loli\|children]]. They are a MAJOR component to the story of ''Ocarina of Time'' with one Kokiri named Saria, in particular, being one of the [[Sage\|Sages]] needed to help stop Ganondorf. They may or may not be evolved from the Kikwi beings seen in ''Skyward Sword''.

	'''Koroks:''' Debuting in ''The Wind Waker'', these small humanoid plants are implied to be the Kokiri, or at least their descendants, who forsook their more humanoid appearance. They've only appeared in ''The Wind Waker'' and ''Breath of the Wild''. They play a major role in ''The Wind Waker'' but the vast majority of their being in ''Breath of the Wild'' is little more than filler content that, once completed entirely, rewards the player with [[What\|a stylized golden pile of shit]]. Gotta love that Japanese toilet humour...

	'''Rito:''' Another race that debuted in ''The Wind Waker'' before making a surprise return in ''Breath of the Wild'', the Rito are almost different races in each appearance. In ''Wind Waker'', they appear as humans with retractile wings on their arms and beak-like noses and are implied to be the descendants of the Zora after the fish-people were changed to not be allowed to linger in Hyrule after it was flooded. In ''Breath of the Wild'', they are straight up [[aarakocra\|humanoid birds]] and are simply the inhabitants of the cold northern mountain regions, with no connections to the Zora as far as we know.
