Yeah, it sounds decent. I know in the Manga Shiek was under the guise of Ganons servant but secretly worked against him. It could be interesting to see that sort of thing.

There should be an "eh" option, because that's how I feel. It's not something I'd support, but I'd probably play it if it were made.

Honestly, that's something that's better kept as mere lore for now. It would ruin the mystery of his (her) character, which is what makes Sheik so awesome.

I just picked “Maybe” I'm not sure if it'd be interesting because what exactly would you do in the game? I don't think Sheik was running around as some vigilante or anything during the 7 years. I always thought it was just a time were Zelda was laying low and training.

If there were to be a spin-off, this is the type of game that such a spin-off should be. In other words, this is exactly what a spin-off based on a huge franchise should be.

I think actually it would be a very interesting idea to look at things that are happening outside the main story, dominated by Link and Zelda. A behind-the-scenes look, so to speak. They would be able to try new ideas that they may not want to use for the main series, and it would be a testing ground of sorts for different gameplay mechanics. It would also give them a chance to clean up the timeline mess.

Of course, this is all depending on what the game is actually like, but the idea is solid.
