Courage, Wisdom, Power
Hyrule was formed by the goddesses Din, Nayru, and Farore. According to Hylian legend, Din created the physical geography of the realm, Farore the flora and fauna, and Nayru gave the laws of physics. Once the goddesses had completed their tasks, they departed for the heavens, and left behind them three golden triangles. Into these, they gave their power to govern all things; this became known as the Triforce. The Triforce resided in another realm from Hyrule known as the Sacred Realm.
The time is the present. The land of Hyrule has desceneded into darkness. A tyrant known as the Ruler of Darkness is in power. The sacred land was impurified. This caused both sides to be plauged.
These problems have lead to an uprising in the citizen's or Hyrule. A Legend is coming to pass. 7 beings, chosen at birth, and each marked with a special symbol of the Triforce, have grown to an age of understanding and intelligence. These seven will meet in a sacred secret area. It is known as the Temple of Time. Now prepare to begin your legend.
Races:
Sheikah
The Sheikah were an ancient clan of ninja-like warriors that swore to protect the Hylian Royal Family, often times refered to as the "shadows"' of the Hylians. Little is known of the tribe, but it has been implied that the Sheikah were incredibly agile and had magical prowess similar to Hylians.
Gerudo
The Gerudo are a tribe of thieves from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, and The Legend of Zelda: Four Sword Adventures. Their race consists entirely of women, but according to information given in Ocarina of Time, one man is born every hundred years, and is destined to become the king of the Gerudo tribe. The Desert Wasteland, found in west Hyrule, is governed by the Gerudo, an almost purely female race. Only one male is born every hundred years. This is the hundred year mark. It is explained in ancient texts that Gerudo women were often found looking for Hylian men, assumedly for reproduction purposes. Gerudo women are generally short-tempered and aggressive, willing to take on any man trespassing on their ground.
Gorons
Gorons are a humanoid, rock-eating race that dwell in the mountains. Despite their hulking appearance, Gorons are a relatively peaceful species when they come in contact with the other races. However, Gorons are known to deeply respect individuals who display a great amount of strength, and particularly enjoy matching their strength with others in sumo wrestling matches. Gorons are usually considered, perhaps superficially, to be of low intelligence, although there is no particular indication of this in the games. They may also be fooled by appearances due to bad eyesight, similar to moles, as they are a subterranean species. Almost all Gorons say "goro" at the end of most of their sentences, but this was removed from the English versions of the games. Making their home inside of mountains and underground are the Goron race. They usually reside in a locale known as Goron City. They mine rocks from caves for their race to eat. Goron City itself is usually an intricate labyrinth set inside Death Mountain, which is connected to the Fire Temple
Kokiri
The forest to the southeast is governed, in secret, by the Great Deku Tree, who watches over a realm of children that will never grow up called the Kokiri. The Kokiri are forest elves (or spirits) who take the form of children and are given life by The Great Deku Tree.
Zora
The Zora are an aquatic race who dwell in the waters of Hyrule, sometimes in caverns. The Zora are guardians of the waterways in Hyrule, and throughout the series they control passages in the waters that warp travelers to other locations. The Zora are a monarchy, ruled over by a being always known as King Zora, though it is not known if that is his true name. They usually worship a deity known as Lord Jabu-Jabu, a giant fish. They are now controlled by the evil lord.
Humans
The simplest race in the land of Hyrule. They are normally mediocre. This race is also called, "Hylians." They have the ability to perform magical spells and have easiest access to the Great Fairies of Hyrule.
The Rito
Their main habitat was on Dragon Roost Island but is now On the Dragon's Peak on Death Mountain, in which all known Rito reside. They have a tribal elder, with numerous followers and elaborately dressed guards. They are believed to be relatives of the Zoras but deny fully. No Rito is born with wings, and must visit the tribes' guardian, the great dragon Valoo, to receive one of his scales which enables them to grow wings. It is a coming of age ceremony of the Rito, to journey to the great Valoo to receive their scale. Children with no wings are called chicks. Rito are viewed upon by outsiders somewhat dubiously. Some have an inexplicable bigotry directed towards them, perhaps out of jealousy. Still, Rito are widely accepted as mail carriers, as only they can traverse the land the fastest without cumbersome horses or carts. Rito are capable of flying quickly, and full-grown members can carry humans for a short time. These people were more like giant birds than humans, but had a similar gaining of wings past a certain age and the same chieftain leadership structure. Curiously, but fittingly, they would seem to have been messenger-people even before their deal with Valoo.
