Breath of the Wild

Tulin is the son of Teba and Saki and can be seen with his mother at the top of Rito Village in the hut next to the village elder, Kaneli. Tulin will greet Link very politely when he first talks to him, stating that his dad always told him that great kids are great greeters. He mentions that his Dad is over at the Flight Range and that his dad has agreed to play with him later. Tulin wants to travel to the Flight Range to play, as he loves the feeling of Flying with the wind beneath his wings.

After Teba returns home, Tulin can be found sleeping in a hammock near the entrance of their home, with his parents watching over him.

Age of Calamity

Tulin only makes an appearance in this game once the Age of Calamity Expansion Pass DLC is purchased, specifically in the Guardian of Remembrance scenario EX Searching Hyrule Forest. He somehow traveled back in time with his dad but was separated from him in the process, and while Teba was busy rescuing Revali and Vah Medoh from Windblight Ganon, Tulin ended up in the forest where he met with the Koroks, who taught him about the forest. His presence did not go unnoticed when Revali saw Tulin before he lost track of him and inquired Teba's help as he doesn't recall seeing him in the village and looked a lot like Teba. During their search, they find Tulin and the Rito Captain offers to protect him from the monsters, while they make their way out. Tulin surprises the adults with his familiarity with the wind patterns and false passages when they found a dead end and they managed to escape the forest unharmed.

Upon escaping, Teba tells Tulin to thank Revali since he is the reason why he is still alive. Tulin complies obediently, and goes in front of the Rito Champion to do just that. Revali smiles a bit and complements that he is pretty good for a little kid. Tulin is overjoyed, and he begins jumping close to Revali's face, while the latter backs away nervously, as he tells him that he is doing a lot of training so that he can be just like him and hopes to master the Great Eagle Bow. Revali sighs as he reminds him that he was nearly slain by the monsters, but he was happy regardless, and adds that it won't be too long before he's the master of the wind like him. Teba agrees, but he adds that he must surpass his father first. Tulin then imitates Revali's abrasive persona, making Teba laugh before he controls himself as Revali asks if that was meant to sound like him, as Teba was at a loss for words. However, Revali had witnessed the father-son bond and Tulin's sly sense of humor was enough for Revali's heart to melt as he starts chuckling before bursting out laughing as Teba and Tulin follow along. After they settle down, Tulin attempts his own take of Revali's Gale, dubbing his "Tulin's Tornado", and leaps into the air before he fell to the ground, as Teba approaches him, and Revali chuckling in amusement as he reminds him that he still has a long way to go, affectionately calling him "kid".

During the secret DLC ending, Revali is looking after Tulin, who is sleeping on his lap, as Teba watches. Revali manages to stop the blanket from blowing away, delighting Teba.

Tears of the Kingdom

"A young Rito who fought at Link's side to save his village from a strange phenomenon. When Link first visited the village, Tulin was still a child growing up in his father's shadow, and his eyes would light up seeing Link in action. Now, he has shown true growth and proved himself a Rito warrior. Tulin has inherited a secret stone and awakened as the Sage of Wind."

— Character Profile description

Tulin first appears in Tears of the Kingdom on a platform in Rito Village, arguing with his parents Teba and Saki. Tulin believes that he is old enough and capable enough to deal with the blizzard by himself, while Teba does not agree. Tulin then flies off towards the Hebra Mountains. This begins the Tulin of Rito Village Main Quest.

Harth at the Hebra Trailhead Lodge will tell Link that Tulin has skill beyond his age, particularly a wind-gust technique. Link learns from Harth that the last time he saw Tulin he was heading on a trip to the Hebra South Summit Cave to find food. Link can find Gesane near the end of the cave, who says that Tulin saw some monsters and opted to chase them back to their nest instead of returning with the food. Tulin could be found near a lone cedar tree on Talonto Peak.

When Link finds Tulin, he is upset because one of the Aerocuda took his good bow; Link agrees to help retrieve it. Tulin will tell Link about his special ability that will allow him to blow a strong gust of wind wherever he wants to. This will allow Link to travel faster in that direction while using the Paraglider. Link and Tulin fight the nearby monsters and retrieve Tulin's Bow. Afterwards, Harth and Gesane appear, complementing the two for defeating the monsters. Tulin says that he saw Princess Zelda, who then flew above the blizzard. Harth recommends that Tulin joins Link in his search for Zelda and investigate the cloud together.

Tulin and Link begin to navigate their way up to the cloud, first making their way to the Hebra Peak. Near the beginning of the Rising Island Chain, Link and Tulin both hear a voice from the cloud that says Come...to me.... Tulin sees the boats floating in the sky and realizes that they are the same boats from the Song of the Stormwind Ark. The pair proceed to make their way up the Rising Island Chain, with Tulin using his ability to propel Link across large island gaps.

After making their way into the cloud, Tulin and Link will find the Wind Temple, the legendary stormwind ark spoke of in the song. The pair briefly see Princess Zelda, before she disappears once again. This is followed by a voice, telling Tulin to open the five locks around the ship which will open the hatch in the center. Link and Tulin make their way around the ship, with Tulin using his ability to power tubes that lead to the gears and turn them.

Once the hatch opens Colgera will emerge, the monster the Demon King summoned to create the blizzard. After the monster is defeated the blizzard will end, revealing the bright sky once again. It will also melt a structure in the center of the ship, revealing a structure with a stone on it. The stone will float towards Tulin, who will touch it and be transported with Link to another area. Tulin's ancestor and former Sage of Wind will reveal himself, informing Tulin that the stone he found used to be his. The Rito will also give a history about the Demon King's first appearance, and how he tried to stop him with his own gust ability. He was unable to, which prompted Rauru to sacrifice himself to seal him away. The Rito tells Tulin it is his duty to help Link fight the Demon King, a role which Tulin enthusiastically accepts. Tulin takes the stone, and becomes the Sage of Wind. He gives Link a ring that will allow him to call upon Tulin's power at anytime.

Link and Tulin head back to Rito Village, where Teba gives Tulin his own Bow in honor of his achievements. Tulin tells Link he will continue to look into the mysterious sighting of Princess Zelda on the stormwind ark, and tells him to come back later for more information. This completes the Tulin of Rito Village Main Quest.

Tulin can later be found in Rito Village, pondering over a riddle that Harth gave him surrounding the Sturnida Secret Hot Spring. This discussion will begin the Treasure of the Secret Springs side quest.
