Welcome to Gaia! ::

Humans


About:"... And the blood of the gods waned."

As resilient as anything, and perhaps more, the humans are the most prevalent eviolute of the Hylian race. Not to be confused with the Hylians, the humans seem to have significantly less in the way of magical ability. As the timeline presses on the Hylians become noticeably less numerous, their numbers seeming to be replaced with humans. Throughout the series these humans have made up for their shortcomings in the way of spiritual/magical ability with their ingenuity and work ethic.


Appearance: Just like Hylians, but with rounded ears. Also, more likely to have hair and eye color other than blonde and blue.

Alignment: Every alignment seems to be equally prevalent.

Habitat: Everywhere but the more extreme locations such as Death Mountain, Zora Domain, etc.

Era: All

Abilities:

Steadfast: Humans are able to keep going a little longer than other races.

Adapt and Overcome: After five posts, if not dead, a human will steadily gain resistances to attacks of any nature.

Jack of all Trades: Humans start out with incredibly low stats, but are balanced. They also learn twice as fast as other races.

Sheikah


About: The Sheikah are perhaps the most mysterious race in all Hyrule, remaining forever a figure in the shadows of the Hylians. However, to say their history is only such is to grossly underestimate these noble people. In times when the Royal family is not seen as the dominant focus of their lives the Sheikah remain a creative force in the realm, preserving methods and magics from time immemorial to combat the evil that would corrupt Hyrule. Though this leaves them a little two-dimensional, seen as having only one real goal--albeit a noble one. They have become the echo of the Hylians' pulse, and will surely be extinguished when the Royal Flame goes out; there is no shadow in perfect darkness.


Appearance: Typically seen as "Hylians with a tan," Sheikah are much the same as their holy brethren. Unlike Gerudo, though, they most commonly have blonde hair as opposed to the red, hinting at a slightly closer relation than the desert dwelling race to the Hylians both in politics and genetically.


Alignment: Lawful good

Habitat: Most commonly see in Kakariko, though they could go wherever a Hylian could, in theory.

Era:Skyward Sword through Twilight Princess, Original Game, Anime/Manga eras

Abilities:

*Mind/Body: A good Sheik would never allow his/her mind or body to be unsharp; same as their swords.

*Arcane Logos: The use of mysterious symbology has been employed by the Sheikah for thousands of years, giving rise to such marvels as the Sheikah Stones, the various magical seals used by the Royal Family and their magicians, etc. Therefor it would only make sense that a full-fledged Sheikah would be capable of similar magical feats--on a smaller scale, of course.

About: The Gorons (pronounced /ˈgɔɹɒn/ GAWR-on) are a race of rock people inhabiting Hyrule, Termina, and several other countries, typically living in mountain ranges. Gorons are one of the most consistently present races throughout The Legend of Zelda series.
By the time of The Wind Waker, other major races such as the Zora, Kokiri, and Deku are nowhere to be found, presumably having either evolved or migrated. In Skyward Sword, which is the earliest game in the Zelda series timeline, the Goron race is still exactly the same, but all other races (excluding the Hylians) either do not make an appearance or have not evolved yet.
Appearances: The Gorons are a large, mountain-dwelling race, with sizes ranging from medium, tall, and even gigantic. The largest known Goron in the series is Biggoron, who is roughly about the same height as the peak of Death Mountain. Befitting with that of their habitat, their durable, round bodies greatly resemble that of stones and boulders, and nearly all Gorons have a hide of ridged stones on their backsides. They usually have light brown skin; however, green, red, and blue Gorons have also been seen only in the world of Labrynna. They also have small eyes and noticeable lips, which conceal unaligned square teeth. Combined with their round shape, Gorons can also curl themselves into a ball shape and roll like a boulder, which is also their primary attack against enemies.
Alignment: Typically seen as Neutral
Habitat Gorons typically live in or under mountain ranges of several countries, including mountains such as Death Mountain of Hyrule and Snowhead of Termina, among others. Although they are also adept at living in non-mountainous regions, as seen in some titles such as The Minish Cap. It is not uncommon to see Gorons come down from their mountain homes or even travel to faraway lands, such as in The Wind Waker and Skyward Sword. Some also live on islands, such as on Goron Island.

Era: All


Abilities: Gorons possess immense strength which many in their race are proud of, and many groups of Gorons like to hold competitions that test each other's physical strength and even rolling ability, including competitions such as sumo wrestling and rolling racing, among others. While Gorons do have many strengths, they are also not without their weaknesses. Gorons tend to move slowly, which their ability to roll makes up for, and one of their apparent weaknesses is deep water as they cannot swim. However, as mentioned in Twilight Princess, Gorons can hold their breath for long periods without ever needing to breathe and thus cannot drown.[4] Another common trait is that they have symbols in the shape of the Goron's Ruby tattooed to the sides of their arms, whether this is natural or not is unknown.

Ancient Robot


About: One of the five tribes of the surface, oddly enough, is the Ancient Robots. While it isn't clear where the technology to build them came from, it is certain from their existence that the land of Hyrule was a much more enlightened place before the coming of Demise. The Hylians are said to have had a hand in the enslavement of the AR, but these claims can no sooner be substantiated as the source of the curious species can be discerned.

Appearance: Small, slightly humanoid, with large cranium and hands. Curious markings all over. Likely some old Hyrulean script.

Alignment: lawful good

Habitat: Lanayru Mining Facility


Era: Skyward Sword

Abilities:

Flight

Enhanced Strength

Kikwi


About: One of the original Five Tribes of the Surface, the Kikwi are a peaceful forest dwelling race who seem to want nothing more than to live in the grace of Farore, as well as the other goddesses. What they lack in technological advancements they make up for in wisdom and knowledge of the forest. The eldest has a secret which he keeps from everybody.


Appearance: Short, furry, and adorable, the Kikwi are small mammals with swirling tails and elongated noses which suggest and arboreal life as well as the advent of olfaction in forest dwelling species on in Hyrule.


Alignment: Lawful neutral to good


Habitat: Faron woods (Skyward Sword era only)


Era: Skyward Sword

Abilities:

*Nimble: With their small bodies the Kikwi are one of the most nimble species in all Hyrule. Plus evasion and speed.

About: The Kokiri are small child-like beings that inhabit the Kokiri Forest, as they compromise the land there with planted houses on its acres and within its borders. To date, they have only existed in the realms of Ocarina of Time and The Wind Waker, but are referenced in several games of the Zelda franchise.
Appearances: The Kokiri are an ageless race that takes the form of human children. Like Hylians, they possess long, pointed ears. Apart from Saria, all known Kokiri have either blonde or red hair. Despite their agelessness, Kokiri are still mortal beings that may be killed.
Through some unknown process, the Great Deku Tree gave life to the Kokiri. Given the presence of twins within Kokiri Forest, it is possible that this was a biological process, rather than a magical one. Furthermore, three of the Kokiri are referred to as "brothers," though this may only be in the sense of the word rather than having any closer biological connection than any of the other Kokiri.
It was said that the Kokiri die if they leave the forest. However, at the end of Ocarina of Time, the Kokiri are seen in Lon Lon Ranch along with other characters celebrating Ganondorf's defeat. Because of this, it is possible that the story is told only for general safety to prevent Kokiri to leave and be killed because of the monsters outside the Kokiri Forest.
When the world began to flood, the Kokiri took on the forms of Koroks, which are beings made of wood, like the Deku. Because of this, it may be that the Kokiri retain the form of children by choice.
Alignment: Typically seen as Good
Habitat: The only known place of habit is with in the Kokiri Forest.

Era: OOT

Abilities: None that are notable.

* Given a fairy at a very young age that will watch over them.

Yeti


About: The Yeti seem to be one of the more intelligent primates in the series, able to communicate fairly easily with Link. They appear to be isolationist, and for that reason could have been trusted with great secrets. As the Hylians moved North from their post near the Temple of Time, the royal family saw fit to confide more in the enigmatic and sometimes terrifying creatures. As with most confidantes, they have more than one provider of secrets, as evidence for Oocca contact can be seen as well. Despite all this intrigue, though, the Yeti remain a playful race on the outside, seemingly content to stay hold up in the mountains and slide around.in the snow... Perhaps they aren't so stupid after all.

Alignment: lawful neutral

Habitat: Snowy Peak


Era: OOT, Twilight Princess

Monstrous strength
