Wolf Link is the form that Link takes when he enters the world of [[Twilight]]. He no longer can use his deep inventory of weaponry, but instead, relies on his animal instincts. Wolf Link has the ability to use his senses to view spirits in the [[Twilight Realm]] as well as discover strange scents and secret holes. He also has the ability to dig through small holes, which allows him to reach several secret areas and many previously unreachable areas. While in wolf form, Link is able to speak with many animals throughout the land.  
Wolf Link is the form that Link takes when he enters the world of [[Twilight]]. Rather than use his deep inventory of weaponry, but instead, relies on his animal instincts, teeth and claws. In this form, he can use his senses to view spirits in the [[Twilight Realm]], discover strange scents and find secret holes. He can also dig through loose patches of soil, which allows him to reach several secret areas and many previously unreachable areas, and is able to speak with many animals throughout the land.  


While in wolf form, Link's companion Midna will accompany him on his back. Once Wolf Link gains the [[Master Sword]], he also gains the [[Shadow Crystal]], which allows Link to transform from a human to a wolf at almost any point in time.
In [[Twilight]], and always after [[Zant]]'s attack following the [[Lakebed Temple]], Link's companion Midna will accompany him on his back in wolf form. Once Link gains the [[Master Sword]], he also gains the [[Shadow Crystal]], which allows Link to transform from a human to a wolf at almost any point in time.

Midna is an imp like creature whose background and purpose are unknown throughout most of the game. She is a member of the [[Twili]] people who dwell within the [[Twilight Realm]]. She is first seen in the [[Faron Woods#Twilight Princess|Faron Woods]] as Link is dragged away in wolf form. Midna then appears within [[Hyrule Castle (Twilight Princess)|Hyrule Castle]] and helps [[Wolf Link]] escape. She acts as a companion for Link throughout his quest.

When Link is in the [[Twilight]], or after obtaining the [[Shadow Crystal]], Midna will ride on top of Wolf Link. While in wolf form, Link uses Midna to reach distant ledges and also uses Midna's charged attack to defeat multiple enemies at once. Midna is also used as a form of transportation. Wolf Link can speak with Midna and she will [[warp]] him to any place where there is a [[Twilight Portal]] in the sky. When Link is in the [[Light World]], Midna disappears into Link's shadow. Early in the game, Midna takes Link on a quest to recover three [[Fused Shadow]]s, only to have them stolen by [[Zant]].

Zant is the leading villain throughout most of the game. He is a member of the [[Twili]] race and the self-proclaimed ruler of the Twilight. This garnered the name, Usurper King of the Twilight. Zant invades [[Hyrule Castle (Twilight Princess)|Hyrule Castle]] alongside several [[Shadow Beast]]s and forces [[Zelda#Twilight Princess|Princess Zelda]] to surrender. He appears sparingly throughout the game, confronting Midna and Link on several fronts. After gathering the three [[Fused Shadow]]s, Zant steals them from Midna and puts the [[Shadow Crystal]] within Link. This makes Link remain in his wolf form even when in the [[Light World]].

Zant later attempts to destroy the [[Mirror of Twilight]], but is unable to do so, so instead, breaks it into four large [[Mirror Shard]]s and scatters three of them throughout Hyrule. Before the battle with Zant, It is revealed that Zant was acting as a tool for his God, Ganondorf.
