It's a rather rare find." - Ravio's Hood description Wearing it increases your sideways climbing speed. Reference " The hood of a traveling merchant who had a bracelet that could turn the wearer into a painting. These actions coupled with his showing Hilda the error of her ways, ultimately lead to Link and Zelda to use Hyrule's Triforce to restore Lorule's Triforce, restoring the Kingdom of Lorule something which both he and Hilda were grateful for. It should also be noted that he greatly aided Link in his quest through the various items he supplied to Link and by giving Link his Bracelet he enabled Link to escape from being permanently transformed into a painting by Yuga. This is shown by his willingness to confront Hilda over the consequences of stealing Hyrule's Triforce, ultimately managing to dissuade Hilda from stealing the Triforce. It is implied that through his interactions with his counterpart, that Ravio has gained a better understanding of himself and even suggests that some of Link's courage may have rubbed off on him. Despite his decision to aid his counterpart, Ravio appears to have the mindset of a merchant, providing Link with equipment and items in exchange for Rupees, hinting that Ravio is somewhat greedy when it comes to money, and he is shown to be protective of the large sack he carries his rupees in. However, despite his opposition to Hilda and Yuga's actions, he was too much of a coward to actively oppose them, instead he decided to seek out his heroic counterpart and assist him though chose to keep his true identity hidden from Link. As evidenced by his diary, Ravio also distrusted Yuga, and suspected the latter's true nature from the start as a "leech" and that he was duping Hilda into making the situation even worse, with his suspicions ultimately being proven correct when Yuga backstabbed her late in the game. Ravio realized the consequences of Hilda's plans and that her desire to steal the Hyrule's Triforce, was the very reason her predecessors destroyed Lorule's Triforce showing that Ravio possesses great wisdom and a noble heart, though his lack of courage prevents him from taking on the role of Lorule's Hero. Also like Link, Ravio cares for his homeland and Lorule's Princess Hilda who Ravio was a faithful servant of until she decided to steal Hyrule's Triforce. Like Link, Ravio carries a large assortment of items and weapons (save for a Sword and Shield) which he rents to his counterpart, though later will offer to let Link purchase them from him. He does however, have a kind heart like his counterpart.

Unlike Link, Ravio is a coward and lazy, which is in sharp contrast to Link's courage and adventurous personality. He successfully convinces Hilda that stealing Hyrule's Triforce would only bring out the worst in Lorule, which was exactly the scenario their forebears had hoped to avoid when they destroyed Lorule's Triforce, and the two see Link and Zelda off as they return to their own world.Īfter Link and Zelda wish on Hyrule's Triforce to restore Lorule's Triforce, Ravio and Hilda are seen in the Sacred Realm of Lorule as the clouds part and their Triforce is restored. He was afraid to stand up to them, however, so he fled Lorule, hoping to find a hero who could stop Hilda and Yuga. A servant of Hilda's, Ravio did not agree with her plan to steal Hyrule's Triforce.

He will begin selling off his wares after Link finds the Master Sword, and will thank Link for allowing him to make enough Rupees to retire early if every item in his shop is bought.Īfter Yuga-Ganon and Princess Hilda are defeated and Princess Zelda is freed, Ravio enters Lorule, where it is revealed that he is the Lorulian counterpart to Link. Initially, Ravio will only rent items to Link and will send Sheerow to retrieve any rented items should Link fall in battle. Additionally, he gives Link his bracelet. After Link awakens, he grants Ravio permission to stay in his house, where Ravio sets up his shop. Shortly after Link fails to stop Yuga from abducting Seres from the sanctuary, Ravio, passing by the sanctuary, saves Link and brings him back to his house.
