Breath of the Wild
Oliff a traveler who sticks together with his four friends, Sesami, Canolo, Flaxel, and Palme. Oliff is a fighter and wields a Fisherman's Shield along with a Traveler's Sword. Initially he gets attacked by some Blue Bokoblin, along with several of his friends near the Koukot Plateau. However, after he is rescued, he will appear at the Gerudo Canyon Stable. He can be found leaning up against some equipment, near a Cooking Pot. When spoken to, he will comment on Link reminds him of the tales that he has heard of the legendary hero from 100 years ago who saved Hyrule during the Great Calamity.[1] Of course Oliff doesn't know that the legend he is referring to is actually the same Link that in fact saved him.
Missing in Action
- Main article: Missing in Action
Link can speak with Sesami over at the Gerudo Canyon Stable to begin the Missing in Action quest. His four friends, including Oliff, were jumped by monsters near the Koukot Plateau. Sesami was able to escape and run to the stable, but his four friends weren't able to make it.[2] Sesami will task Link with finding his four friends and letting them know he's at the Gerudo Canyon Stable.
Near a torch by the road, just north of the Koukot Plateau, Link is able to climb up some of the wooden planks. Here he will find Oliff being attacked by a pair of Blue Bokoblin. After he is saved by Link, Oliff will thank him while also complementing his form. He is very impressed with Link's fighting skills. He states that he himself is a decent fighter, but that he was caught off guard when traveling with his friends and that the monsters vastly outnumbered them.[3] After hearing that Sesami is waiting for him, he will run off towards the Gerudo Canyon Stable.[4]
Oliff will then appear at the Gerudo Canyon Stable. After Link has saved Canolo, Flaxel, and Palme, Link can speak with Sesami once again to complete the quest. The five of them each pitched in to give Link a Gold Rupee. After Link leaves the stable, Oliff and his friends will all leave the stable as well, with the exception of Sesami.
Tears of the Kingdom
Early in the game, Oliff can be found at the Hyrule Castle Town Ruins, looking out towards Hyrule Castle. He suggests that Link visit Captain Hoz, who can be found at the gate tower on top of the hill, closer to Hyrule Castle.[5] After speaking with Captain Hoz at Hyrule Castle, Oliff mentions that the Captain will soon be returning to his original duties with the Monster-Control Crew.[6]
Oliff has been training to be a guard and is in charge of standing watch, protecting Hyrule Castle.[7] He can later be found at the gate at the entrance to the path of Hyrule Castle, north of the town ruins. He will warn Link of the dangerous Gloom Spawn enemies that are appearing.[8] While he doesn't have any advise on defeating the enemy, he knows that it will chase Link if it spots you and encourages Link to run away from it.[9]

- ↑ Your swordsmanship... It was something straight from the tales of the legendary hero said to have saved Hyrule during the Great Calamity! Those dusty old legends are a hundred years old, but here you are in the flesh! A modern-day hero! *ahem...* Excused me for prattling on. I'll take my leave now. Thank you again. - Oliff
- ↑ I don't know... We were all walking together when some monsters suddenly jumped us near the Koukot Plateau path. I took off running and didn't stop until I got here. I thought my friends were right behind me, but when I turned around, they were nowhere to be found. You don't think the monsters could have... No, they're fine. They'll be back any second now. Hey, if you happen to run into any of my friends on the road, please let them know Sesami is waiting for them here. - Sesami
- ↑ Wh-what wonderful form! I've never seen anyone fight like that! My name is Oliff. I'm a decent fighter, but I was caught off guard while traveling with my friends... The monsters vastly outnumbered us, so I thought it unwise to challenge them. I hate to think what would've happened had you not shown up. By the Goddess, I'm grateful... - Oliff
- ↑ Sesami is waiting for me? Ah, I'm glad to hear he's safe. I shall hurry off to the Gerudo Canyon Stable where he waits. - Oliff
- ↑ "Link! Is that really you? When did you get out from the castle?! I'm so ashamed... I've been on watch duty here this whole time, and I didn't see you at all. I've really got to get serious about my training... Captain Hoz doesn't know that you're back, does he, Link? You should report to him right away. He's on the gate tower at the top of the hill, past the lower gates. I'm sure the captain will be just as surprised to see you as I was!" — Oliff, Tears of the Kingdom
- ↑ "Working hard so early in the morning! Such amazing dedication! Captain Hoz is going to be returning to his original duties with the monster-control crew. I'm on guard duty here, making sure no thieves sneak into the castle and steal any of the treasures there. You can count on me to keep the castle safe, Link!" — Oliff, Tears of the Kingdom
- ↑ "I might not match you for skill, Link, but I've been training hard, and I'm pretty confident in my abilities! So never fear! I'm keeping watch, and I'll make sure no thieves sneak past me and steal any of the castle's treasures. You can count on me to keep the castle safe, Link!" — Oliff, Tears of the Kingdom
- ↑ "It's about time for those monsters that love the dark of night to awaken! Captain Hoz has withdrawn from the castle and is fulfilling his other duties for the monster-control crew. But never fear! I'm keeping watch, and I'll make sure no thieves sneak past me and steal any of the castle's treasures. But, uh...be on your guard, OK? THere's a terrifying monster called a Gloom Spawn lurking around here. If you see a moving mass of gloom, fall back as fast as you can!" — Oliff, Tears of the Kingdom
- ↑ "It's some kind of monster completely coated in gloom. And if it touches you, it'll steal away your vitality! It has strange wriggly things protruding all over... It's a real sight. If it spots you, it'll try and chase you down. Sorry, but I don't know any more than that... It's important to know as much as you can about your enemy. Be careful!" — Oliff, Tears of the Kingdom
