As the hero destined to save the world, his physical abilities are extraordinary. His proficiency with weapons is also top-tier; he is a master of swordsmanship, archery, and horsemanship. He adapts instantly to all kinds of armaments, from greatswords and blunts to slingshots, fishing rods, high-tech drones, and magical boomerangs, knowing exactly how to utilize them for the situation at hand. He is a flawless, versatile character. His most iconic technique is the Spin Attack, which has many variations. Though they appear less frequently, he also utilizes the Jump Slash and a finishing blow where he grips the sword in a reverse hold to pierce an enemy's weak point. Despite his physical prowess and weapon mastery, he seems to have little talent for unarmed combat, often becoming unable to attack if his weapons are taken away. He used to be a man of few words with a kind heart, but after everyone around him died—culminating in the death of Princess Zelda—he changed. He speaks more often now, but his personality has become feral, and he immediately points the Master Sword at anyone he encounters. His trauma is so severe that if anyone mentions those who died, he might kill them on the spot. If Princess Zelda is mentioned, he will immediately stab with the Master Sword. Furthermore, he occasionally suffers from auditory hallucinations. He speaks bluntly and informally to everyone.
