Another form of Princess Zelda, Sheik is a persona taken on by her during Ocarina of Time that could completely hold their own in a separate game. In fact, an allegedly canceled Sheik Legend of Zelda spin-off would have done just that, but fans will never see the completed title. Sheik only appears for short moments in Ocarina of Time that leave many fans wanting more, particularly considering the character's combative prowess and overall powerful nature, which are shown off more in Hyrule Warriors and the Super Smash Bros . ser   Despite TOTK ’s ambiguous position on The Legend of Zelda timeline, it seems that the game may connect directly to Twilight Princess , as many fans have already begun to speculate. Not only are the Heroes of Sky, Time, and Twilight directly referenced by Princess Zelda in BOTW , but several notable these details in TOTK ’s trailers seem to reference the Twilight Realm as well. Fans were quick to spot the snake and ouroboros imagery in the most recent trailer (seen below), which is strikingly similar to the ornamentation in the throne room of the Palace of Twilight where Link encountered Zant the Usurper in Twilight Princ   Ocarina of Time is often considered to be the definitive Zelda game as it introduced much of the series’ most important lore while simultaneously splitting its timeline. Ocarina ’s use of time travel via the Ocarina of Time, the Master Sword, and the Door of Time opened the path to the Sacred Realm, allowing Ganondorf to enter and claim the Triforce. Depending on the outcome of Link’s final battle against Demon King Ganon, the timeline splits into three distinct branches, any of which could be relevant again in TO   The Darknut is an enemy that first appeared in the original Legend of Zelda game, where players had to attack them from behind to damage them. They take the form of large, dark suits of armor, and what's beneath it varies from game to game. They are extremely strong enemies that possess powerful armor and shields as well as strong weapons, and were especially formidable in Twilight Princess , where they had two phases, armored and unarmored. There are different colors, with the most common being black, red, and blue, though one in Twilight Princess is g   There are many enemies from Zelda 's past that could come to TOTK . Some of them could fit in very well and should make an appearance, while others might be better off excluded. Tears of the Kingdom 's darker themes compared to Breath of the Wild might be a sign that the creepier and macabre enemies of Zelda will come. The floating islands also could mean that more flying enemies will come to BOTW , both new ones and those from past games. It's even possible that recurring enemies will come that are completely unexpected. In addition, any returning enemies may have some significant changes, and could be completely unrecognizable from their previous versi   The reincarnated version of the eponymous Princess Zelda Tetra could easily lead a game herself. She is considered by many to be the LoZ 's series' best version of Zelda , and alongside her loyal pirate crew could tell an amazing seafaring adventure tale. A game of her own could dive into Tetra's backstory and give interesting new lore for the world - she became captain after her mother died, but other than that not much is known about her origins, family history, or how she assembled her crew. Whether the game was simply about seafaring and plundering or pitting Tetra against the forces of evil herself, she's a great candidate for a Legend of Zelda protagon   The title and release date of **The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom ** have finally been revealed, and Zelda fans may want to catch up by replaying some of the series before diving into BOTW 's sequel next year. Zelda ’s decades-long history is packed with plenty of lore, legends, and tales of Heroes across its many eras, and TOTK is gearing up to be another major installment in the series’ overarching story. However, with 19 official titles in the mainline canon alone, it’s hard to know where to start with a thorough Legend of Zelda rep   Skulltulas are a spider-like enemy that debuted in Ocarina of Time . They have hard shells on their backs that have the appearance of skulls. Skulltulas typically ambush Link by hiding in the shadows and making sneak attacks, and in OoT and Majora's Mask , some were even invisible. Besides the standard variety, there are three other versions: the Big Skulltula, a larger version only found in OoT , the Gold Skulltula that drops tokens Link can trade for items in OoT and Majora's Mask , and the Walltula, a smaller variety that hangs on vi   Some notable side objectives include finding all 900 Koroks, for which players will receive a thoughtful final Korok Seed from BOTW 's Hestu . Players can also finish all 120 shrines to get all the Spirit Orbs and the heart and stamina upgrades, in addition to a special armor set reminiscent of Link's classic green garb. If players wish to truly dive deep into all of BOTW 's side activities, they can make it a mission to master all the minigames such as Gut Check Rock, or the Paraglider course on Eventide Island. There's also even smaller unmarked objectives such as fully upgrading every armor set, taking pictures of all the creatures and weapons that BOTW has to offer, and cooking every possible rec
