The Legend of Zelda

The Legend of Zelda, also simply shortened to Zelda or (T)LoZ, is an action-adventure series of video games surrounding Hylian Link and his adventures through Hyrule and its neighboring lands, saving either Hyrule or its princess, the titular Zelda, from Ganondorf or another threat. Its publisher, Nintendo, first issued the series for the Famicom in 1986 with its first game sharing the same name as the franchise.

The Legend of Zelda is known by its fanbase for having a Screwy Timeline that many have tried to properly place as the chronology of the series does not follow the order of which the games are released. And with that being paired up with Link and Zelda not really being the same person throughout the series, things can get extra confusing.

Characters
Fairy Friend and Flying Guide - Navi. Because of her "HEY LISTEN HEY LISTEN HEY  LISTEN " thing, not too many people consider her a friend any more than they do a GREAT BALL OF pest. But at least she's still got the Flying Guide part down. A little.

The Mute - Link. Like many other Mutes, Link doesn't really say anything beyond a few simple words or exclamations (yells, grunts, etc.). Well, there is one exception. Can you figure it out? Here's a hint: "WELL EXCUUUUUUUSE ME PRINCESS"

The Not-So-Useless Princess - Zelda. Sure, Zelda has her fair share of kidnap moments, but at least they're nowhere near comparable to Peach's. She helped Link on some of his journeys by aiding him in multiple ways.
