Mako is one of Tetra's Pirates in The Wind Waker. He appears many times throughout the game, and also makes a short appearance in Phantom Hourglass.
Overview
Mako is the brains of the ship and is the smartest member of Tetra's Pirates. He can be seen wearing glasses and is always carrying around a book.
When Link joins the pirates on the journey, Mako refers to Link as being the new swabbie. That distinction was previously given to Niko, but is now given to Link, as he's the newest member of the group, and thus the bottom rung of the pirate ladder.[1][2] Mako implies that because Link has replaced Niko at the bottom of the totem pole, Link has to obey Niko's orders.[3] He mentions that Niko can be found belowdecks, and that Link should head down and talk to him.[4][5][6]
