I’ve been following A Question of Character for a while, I love their dramatic descriptions of old school video game characters, though they can some times not be flattering.  But i’m happy we finally got my boy, and it is very flattering.
You don’t often see analysis of Link that just sticks to one game like this, especially a 2D game.

My Hero Forge 2.0 Creations — Well EXCUUUUSE me, Princess Edition
Inspired by the 1980s DIC Legend of Zelda cartoon that would run on Fridays as part of the Super Mario Brothers Super Show.

I know she didn't have braids on the show, but other incarnations of Zelda do, and I think they work good here.

lol why is Dobson's favorite Link the dude bro Link?
Ironic, isn’t it?
Given his obsession with “Link must have brown hair”, I’m going to assume that Dobson self-projected hard onto cartoon Link growing up, seeing said Link as what he wanted to be as an adult, or a goal to aspire to. So any criticism against the Zelda cartoon was an attack on him personally, in his mind.
And we all know how he takes criticism.

When DiC went to translate the Legend of Zelda into a Saturday morning cartoon there were naturally a lot of challenges.
One of the main issues with the game is the constant stream of enemies. Hardware limitations of the time meant that enemies respawn after a few screens have been traversed. But what does that look like in a cartoon?
The team behind the animated Zelda cartoon actually came up with a nifty canonical way to both respawn enemies and not have them constantly being violently killed (likely to appease the FCC guidelines overseeing kids media at the time).
Tumblr media
Ganon just has an “evil jar.” It’s literally just a large jar that (when an enemy has been zapped by Link’s sword) get transported and respawn back in the jar. It’s a novel little piece of lore and world building that was sadly absent in all Zelda games…
Until Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.
Tumblr media
To explain how enemies respawn, Nintendo created the blood moon. Now when a blood moon rises, all previously slain monsters are respawned. This helps keep the open world gameplay engaging. But it’s also really cool that is very similar to the idea that DiC came up with in the 80’s.
Almost 30 years apart and yet the 80’s cartoon still has relevancy!

Remember that old Japanese magazine that interpreted Link as a redheaded girl? I based some AU concepts on it.
I dunno yet if an actual story will come from this, but the basic premise: Link, a mercenary from Calatia, arrives in Hyrule alongside her travel companion Xellos. Her ensuing adventures would probably be structured like DiC's LoZ show, except Link is much less of a conversationalist.
Other notes:
Xellos is an OC; he's a mage who made a pact with a Great Dark Fairy for increased magic power at the cost of being her servant. (The Great Dark Fairy in question, Solo, is a good guy--but she's rather capricious.)
Sarsaparilla, another OC, would be Zelda's fairy companion here.
All of the Sages in OoT are named after towns in Zelda II, with the exception of "Kasuto"; as such, "Kasuto" is a bit like Sailor Moon's equivalent to "Sailor Earth". This take on Kasuto is a sharp-tongued circus performer.
