Gaepora is the headmaster of the knight academy but seems to hold an even higher position of authority in Skyloft, slightly higher than the ceremony leader. He observes the ceremony, offering a scolding remark to Groose. His decorative red sash is similar to the ceremony leader's except that it features four golden triangles, as well as the Skyloftian bird symbol on its back. His belt also has a bird design. Gaepora is Zelda's father and has a symbol on his back almost identical to hers. His robes bear a striking resemblance to those of Rauru, who credited himself as one of the ancient Sages who constructed the Temple of Time. He also has long eyebrows and laughs with a "Hoo Hoo Hoo" much like Kaepora Gaebora, said to be a reincarnation of an ancient Sage. Some even think he resembles the Kings of Hyrule who appears in Adventure of Link, The Wind Waker and The Minish Cap.

After Zelda is taken by the tornado, Link goes to Gaepora to tell him of Zelda's fate and ask for help. Gaepora thinks of his daughter as strong and isn’t worried, but can only offer Link support and give him his green tunic from being promoted to Senior Class, saying his old clothes weren't suitable for a journey.

===Link's Bird===
===Link's Bird===
Link’s feathery friend is his mode of transportation when traveling amongst the clouds. Link can leap off ledges and call his bird as he falls. Link’s bird will swoop right underneath him giving Link a perfect landing spot. Link can use his bird to travel between the various islands in the sky.

Link’s bird seems to have some sort of connection with Zelda's bird, as the two can be seen flying together even when Link and Zelda are not with each other. Link's bird can hold more than one passenger at a time, as Link and Zelda are both riding on the bird simultaneously at one part in the game.

Link's Bird is a rare breed of Loft Bird that he befriends at some point, possibly before the story starts, in a ceremony. Link's Bird was stated to be a special bird by the developers, and it's unclear if this is the only trait that makes him special or if there is more to it.

Much like Link, Zelda has her own feathery friend to ride on when adventuring above the clouds. Zelda will leap off the ledge and land on top of her bird, just like all the other folks in Skyloft do. Whenever Zelda is seen flying, she always has her bluish-purple friend nearby.

Things take a turn for the worse when a tornado is summoned to kidnap Zelda. Both Zelda and her bird are falling down to the land below the clouds when Zelda appears to be swallowed by a shadow monster. Zelda’s bird is not shown being swallowed by the shadow monster, therefore we do not know of its whereabouts.
