"This is Riju's own sand seal. It may look intense, but she dotes on it regularly; the ribbon it wears was a gift from her, and it even has its own pen in Gerudo Town. It's far more agile than any other sand seal and far more outgoing. An ever-reliable partner to Riju, Patricia is always ready to take off through the desert at a moment's notice."

— Hyrule Compendium Entry

Patricia is a Sand Seal in Breath of the Wild and Age of Calamity. She belongs to the Gerudo chief Riju.

Breath of the Wild

Patricia was given to Riju by her mother, the previous chief.[1] Riju enjoys talking with Patricia in the lower levels of the palace as a part of her morning routine, though she has not had much time to do so since the Divine Beast Vah Naboris began threatening the town.[2] She visits Patricia between 8:00 AM and 11:00 AM.

Patricia differs from the other sand seals in that she wears a red ribbon, and that her coat is blue-grey. Patricia is also one of two animals to have a name, the other being Spinch, along with the Lord of the Mountain’s alternate name, Satori.

Patricia is very knowledgeable and offers words of wisdom if Link feeds her a fruit.[3] She particularly likes wildberries, but she accepts any kind of fruit.[4] Patricia's words can only be heard by those who can truly communicate with her, so Padda translates them for Link.[5] Patricia often attempts to add seal puns to her messages, which Padda avoids translating.[6][7]

Like most domesticated animals in the game, she cannot be killed.

Patricia's Comments

Patricia offers rarer, more insightful comments if wildberries are offered to her. However, she still has some pieces of advice for those who offer other fruits.

Various Fruits
"Seal the deal on your fortune by using more valuable fruit!"
"The southern desert is...searing hot during the day! Bring gear made for it!"
"Sand seals can be knocked out by the sound of an explosion. I'm se— ...Serious."
"Sand boots for desert sands and snow boots for...serious snowfall."
Wildberries
"Look to the top of the Gerudo Highlands to sea...SEE...the path to a dragon."
"Risoka Snowfield rests upon the shoulders of the eighth heroine..."
"Molduga eat anything—even bombs. That's a rather...serious diet!"
"The location a dragon drifts to is also the goal of those...seeking a great fairy."
