Twilight Princess features a complex cast of characters that includes:
Humble farm boy who's quite literally dragged into a life of battle and heroism once the world he knows is plundered and ravaged by forces of shadow, who learns the way of the sword because he has to, and because those whom he holds dear will suffer if he fails, and whose spirit is truly that of the wild beast.
Exiled Princess of the Twilight who tragically loses everything, even her own form, and begins the story as a selfish, coquettish imp who fully intends to take advantage of the obvious hero and use him as a pawn in her revenge scheme, but has a monumental change of heart once she realizes that the people she's working with actually care about her and are willing to make sacrifices for her.
Lowly servant of the Royal Family of Twilight who was sent into a maddening rage when denied the crown, and whose rage turned to active malice once he was chosen by a veritable god to inherit their divine power; a man whose appearance as a terrifying, iron-clad ruler serves to shroud his weak, angry, childlike inner being.
Reviled Demon King of legend, whose insatiable lust for power and destruction kept his wretched soul burning even as he was banished to the underworld, and who manipulated an entire race of shadow beings simply to wrestle his way back into the world of Light; a man who, much like the Hero, harbors the aura of a primal beast.
And yet, my favorite character is:
Cold, withdrawn, Machiavellian toddler who is somehow both an economic genius and a fervent anti-capitalist.

His hair is long, in a bun with a blue ribbon. He looks disgruntled at a ruppee bag in his hands. Behind him, Talo, an older teen or young adult, leans an arm on Colin, looking at him with a smile. Talo wears a white sleeveless shirt, a brown skirt and grey wrap which both has green trims. Under the wrap is a blue skirt banner with a white acorn design. He wears a red sash. His hair is choppy, pulled over top of a red headband. Between Talo and Colin is Colin's Sister, about 10 or so, Kiri, has short blond hair with a pink bandana.

The kiddos! But approximately 10-ish years older. (No Illia because she's not a Kid TM anymore, she's Ordon's age lol)
I realised my missed opportunity to do PH Link (ft Linebeck) I’m devastated, but! The Ordon kids have priority, mainly to make up for Twilight having such a rushed day.
Legend of Zelda fans talk as though Ravio, a homeless refugee who spent the entire game mooching off Link, is the ultimate capitalist. Meanwhile, Malo staged his first corporate takeover before he was out of diapers.
I have malo mart playing on a ten hour loop on youtube rn while I do a research paper and the audio started glitching a bit and when I tell y’all I thought I was loosing my fucking mind- Like oh my god I thought I was going insane.
I am only an hour and ten minutes into the video and I still have three more pages to write (send help, I wanna be silly and write fanfics)
