Rupees are | Rupees can be found virtually anywhere. They are most commonly found in treasure chests and by breaking pots, cutting grass, or defeating enemies. They are sometimes given by people for helping them out. They can be used to buy items, foods and other goods in shops and other places. | ||
Due to their use by [[Great Fairy|Great Fairies]] in some of the games (like ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''), it is assumed that Rupees may have magical properties aside from their monetary use, though these are seldom explored in said games. Despite their monetary use, Rupees are not minted coins, but rather, gems. | |||

=== | ==Trivia== | ||
*Rupees are the currency in India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Pakistan, Mauritius, Seychelles, and Maldives. | |||
* | *In the original ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'', 'Rupee' was spelled ''Rupy'' and ''Rupies'' for plural.{{Ref|LoZ|10|N/A}}{{Ref|LoZ|11|N/A}} | ||
* | *It has been mentioned by fans that in some of the game installments, due to their vague economic and monetary definition, and mainly their magical inflation (as they literally sprout out of the ground), Rupees are not a sustainable form of currency. | ||
