Riju is the Chieftainess of the [[Gerudo]], having inherited the position after her mother passed away. Though she is considerably young for a chief, she is respected by her people.

She helps [[Link]] defeat the [[Divine Beast]] [[Vah Naboris]] after he retrieves the [[Thunder Helm]] from the [[Yiga Clan Hideout]]. She is very fond of [[Sand Seal]]s, and has her own named [[Patricia]]. Her bedroom also contains three Sand Seal plush dolls. [[Buliara]] is her personal body guard and is extremely protective of her.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''|Even now, with such a valuable heirloom stolen by thieves, she refuses to tear herself way from me for even a moment.|Riju's Diary}}

Riju will talk to Link about the [[Divine Beast Vah Naboris]], who has been causing havoc to Gerudo Town with its massive sandstorm and lightning attacks. She thinks that if Link is truly a champion, perhaps he'd be able to calm Naboris down.{{Ref|''A voe within our walls is a great crime. But a voe who is a Champion... Well, we'd never mistreat a friend of Lady Urbosa. And if you're here to help us with Naboris, then we are allies. You saw it on your way to our town. Divine Beast Vah Naboris, cloaked in a massive sandstorm, hurling lightning at any who dare approach. We have to do something to stop it, but we have yet to find any way to appease the Divine Beast on our own. If you truly are a Champion, perhaps you will be able to enter Naboris and calm its anger.'' - '''Riju'''}} Buliara will suggest that perhaps Link should be tasked in retrieving the [[Thunder Helm]], which was stolen by the [[Yiga Clan]].{{Ref|''Lady Riju! I don't see how you can trust a complete stranger with something as important as this task. Perhaps if this person were first to prove his worth by recovering your stolen Thunder Helm...'' - '''[[Buliara]]'''}}{{Ref|''You needn't worry, Lady Riju. If he truly is a Champion, this should be an easy task for him. Our soldiers can tell you all you need to know about the thieves who stole Lady Riju's heirloom. Head through this arch. It will lead you to the barracks. Then, seek out Captain Teake, and ask for a full report.'' - '''[[Buliara]]'''}} Riju mentions that the Thunder Helm is capable of withstanding the lightning attacks from Naboris, and without it, there is no way to approach Naboris.{{Ref|''Ah, yes... An interesting suggestion. You see, there is only one thing in all of Hyrule that can withstand the lightning from Naboris. The Thunder Helm, a family heirloom and relic of the Gerudo. But as Buliara says, it was stolen from us.'' - '''Riju'''}}{{Ref|''Without my heirloom, you'll never be able to approach Naboris. Heh, you know... I take heart in having such a rare visitor as yourself. Lady Urbosa must be looking out for us.'' - '''Riju'''}} Buliara will encourage Link to speak with Captain [[Teake]] within the [[Barracks]], to find out more about the thieves that stolen the Thunder Helm.{{Ref|''What's wrong? If you truly are the Champion of legend, recovering the chief's heirloom should be simple. If you want to know more about the thieves, then you should speak to Captain Teake. Just head down those stairs. Use this chance to show us what you're capable of!'' - '''[[Buliara]]'''}}
