In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', the Great Deku Tree is in charge of watching over Link and the other [[Kokiri]] children in the [[Kokiri Forest]].{{Ref|OoT|911|Great Deku Tree}}{{Ref|OoT|912|Great Deku Tree}}{{Ref|OoT|754|Kokiri}} He watches over the Kokiri and is the guardian of the Kokiri Forest. He is considered responsible and wise. This is evidenced by the fact that [[Link's Mother]] trusted the Great Deku Tree to watch over Link during the wars that dominated when she was alive. At the beginning of ''Ocarina of Time'', the Great Deku Tree orders Navi to bring Link over to him. He assigns a [[Fairy]] for each Kokiri in the forest, Navi being Link's companion throughout the game. The Great Deku Tree protects each of the Kokiri and saves them from the outside world of Hyrule and its horrors. Unfortunately, his death later allows monsters to sweep in and infest the once peaceful forest.

After Link wakes up from his seven-year slumber, he discovers that the Kokiri Forest is now infested with monsters. The Kokiri say this started happening after the death of the Great Deku Tree. When Link completes the Forest Temple, Link is transported back to the Kokiri Forest where he watches the [[Deku Tree Sprout]] grow in front of the dead Great Deku Tree. It is speculated that the Deku Tree Sprout is in fact the Great Deku Tree from ''The Wind Waker''.

The Great Deku Tree is first seen covered in red and green [[ChuChu]]s. After removing them, Link meets the [[Korok]]s. The Great Deku Tree sends Link to find [[Makar]], the smallest Korok, who has been blown into the [[Forbidden Woods]]. He also gives Link the [[Deku Leaf]]. Link must use [[Baba Bud]]s to get to the top of the Deku Tree and obtain the Deku Leaf.

{{Quote|This is a faithful re-creation of the great forest guardian, the Deku Tree. Are you feeling exhausted? How would you like to kick back and take a rest under the canopy of the Deku Tree? No, that wouldn't be terrifying at all.|''[[The Legend of Zelda: Battle Quest|Battle Quest]]'' in-game description.}}
