Biography
The Wind Waker
Personality: Kind and true to her family
LinkAppears in-game as the player's chosen name.'s energetic younger sister is adored by all who meet her. Her current goal is to learn how to fetch water so she can help out her grandmother.
Her most treasured belonging is a telescope bearing a drawing of a seagull.
Aryll isLink's younger sister who lives with him and theirGrandma onOutset Island. Aryll is a very kind, mature and thoughtful person who is eager to help others, especially her Grandma. She often calls Link, "Big Brother".[1][4] One of her favorite hobbies is to hang out at Outset Island'sLookout and play with theSeagulls.[5] HerTelescope is her most cherished possession, but she lends it to Link as a special gift for his birthday.[6] Soon after, she and Link notice a giant bird known asHelmaroc King soaring in the skies while carryingTetra in its talons.Tetra's Pirate Crew successfully hit the Helmaroc King with a cannon ball, causing Tetra to fall into the nearbyForest of Fairies. Aryll urges her brother to go and rescue the pirate girl.[7] After Link does so, the giant bird mistakes Aryll for Tetra,[8] taking her away to theForsaken Fortress.[9] It then becomes Link's sworn priority to save her.
After some persuasion, Tetra allows Link to come with her on herShip and travel to the Forsaken Fortress in an attempt to rescue his sister. However, Link is captured by the Helmaroc King before he can get to Aryll, and the bird launches him off into theGreat Sea.
Later, Link returns to the Forsaken Fortress and is finally able to rescue Aryll. Tetra and her Pirate Crew take her away and promise to return her safely to Outset Island.[10][note 1]
After Link reemerges fromHyrule following the battle of the Helmaroc King, he receives aLetter from Aryll describing her experience aboard the Tetra's Ship. Enclosed with the Letter is aRed Rupee she earned from helping the pirates with their chores.[11]
How have you been, Big Brother?
I'm here on the pirate ship writing you
this letter. Isn't that neat?
At first, I was really scared, but they're
all actually nice...for pirates, I mean.
Mr. Gonzo is a really big guy, but ever
since Miss Tetra left, he's been crying
like a baby. It's kinda funny...but sort
of sad, too.
Nudge is a little strange, but nice, too,
and as for Senza...his beard makes him
look pretty mean, but he tells really cool
stories when he gets in the right mood.
Zuko's kind of weird, and Mako is pretty
quiet... Mako immediately gets mad
whenever I try to take his glasses...so I
do that a lot. Hee hee!
As usual, Niko is always fooling around.
He won't take anything serious. Actually,
he seems sad not to have you around
anymore. Were you guys good friends?
I helped them all out with their chores,
and they actually paid me a little for it,
so I'm sending the money to you. Please
use it, Big Brother!
I'll loan you my telescope for a little
longer...but you have to return it to me
eventually, OK?
I'm doing fine here, so don't you worry.
I'll take care of myself, so you be sure to
take good care of yourself. Good luck!
Aryll
When Link and Tetra surface from the flooded Hyrule after defeatingGanondorf, they are met by Aryll and Tetra's Pirate Crew. Aryll waves to them from the crow's nest, sporting a new magenta dress with a white skull pattern. She wears this dress for the entirety of theSecond Quest.
Aryll is last seen on Outset Island, standing with the other villagers waving goodbye as Link and Tetra set sail for new lands. She runs out to the edge of the dock and waves as they sail away.

Trivia
- InPhantom Hourglass, Aryll is referenced byNyeve whenLink trades theHero's New Clothes for theKaleidoscope. He jokes that it was originally a gift that he had borrowed from his younger sister.[13]
- Aryll's Trophy in the North American version ofSuper Smash Bros. Brawl erroneously claims her Telescope is marked withTurtles instead ofSeagulls. This error occurred due to the Japanese word for seagull (カモメKamome) being misinterpreted as the Japanese word for turtle (カメKame). This was corrected in the PAL version.
- A piece of artwork forBreath of the Wild included in the Japanese version ofCreating a Champion is labeled家族Kazoku (Family) in Japanese and featuresBreath of the Wild's Link with a young girl, presumably a little sister like Aryll. This art is not included in the English version of the book, and the character never appeared in the final version of the game. It is unknown if she would have been a new version of Aryll or have been named something else.
Nomenclature
Aryll's name may come from the word Amaryllis, which is a red flower, referencing the pattern on Aryll's dress. In thecharacter design notes for Aryll inside theZelda Box's book,Eiji Aonuma says that Aryllアリル (Ariru) was originally going to be namedマリル (Mariru) to be similar toMarin (マリン (Marin)) fromLink's Awakening andMalon (マロン (Maron)) fromOcarina of Time.[14] As such, certain similarities between Aryll and Marin can be noted, such as their affinity for Seagulls, and the red hibiscus in Marin's hair that appears on a pattern on Aryll's dress.

Speaking of your sister, she saw me at work the other day, and she said she wanted to learn to carry jars on her head like me so she could help your grandma with chores.
