{{quote|A precious heirloom passed down among the Gerudo. It deflects lightning strikes and is traditionally worn only by the Gerudo chief|In-Game Description}}

The '''Thunder Helm''' is a Key Item, and later a quest-obtainable armor piece in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''. It is an ancient hierloom of the [[Gerudo]] people with the ability to protect its wearer from lightning strikes. When [[Link]] arrives in [[Gerudo Town]], he learns that the Thunder Helm has been stolen from the chief [[Riju]] by the [[Yiga Clan]]. Link is required to recover this item from the [[Yiga Clan Hideout]] in the [[Karusa Valley]] in order to gain Riju's trust. After the helm is returned to Riju, the sight of her wearing it will restore one of Link's memories. Riju wears the helm during the fight against [[Divine Beast Vah Naboris|Vah Naboris]] to protect herself and Link from Naboris's lightning strikes.

After defeating Vah Naboris, Link can examine the helm, which will cause Riju to ask if Link wishes to borrow it. If he claims he does, she will give Link [[The Thunder Helm|a quest]] to help all the inhabitants of Gerudo Town.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''|If you want to wield that power, then you must address the concerns of my people and bring a resolute peace to our town. Then you will be acknowledged as a friend of the Gerudo, and only then will I lend the helm to you.|Riju}} She allows Link to use the Thunder Helm after he completes this quest. The Thunder Helm gives Link the "Lightning Proof" trait if worn.

If ultimately obtained, even if "borrowed" from Riju, the helm doesn't have to be returned.
