{{main|Link (Twilight Princess)}}
Link begins the game as a goat wrangler working at [[Ordon Ranch]], on the edge of [[Ordon Village]], a small settlement just outside [[Hyrule]]. Seemingly well-regarded, he seems to have a romantic relationship with [[Ilia]], the daughter of [[Mayor Bo]]. Link is looked up to by some of the children of Ordon, especially [[Colin]], who wishes to grow up to be just like Link. [[Rusl]], Colin's father, is Link's mentor early in the game.

Link's adventure leads him to navigate all of Hyrule as well as the [[Twilight Realm]]. Transformed into [[Wolf Link|a wolf]] when dragged into the [[Twilight]], Link is freed by [[Midna]], who acts as Link's companion throughout his quest. Link sets off on a journey to find three [[Fused Shadow]] pieces, [[Mirror Shard|three shards]] of the [[Mirror of Twilight]], and to save [[Zelda#Twilight Princess|Princess Zelda]] and the kingdom of Hyrule.

When Link is in the [[Twilight]], or after obtaining the [[Shadow Crystal]], Midna will ride on top of Wolf Link. While in wolf form, Link uses Midna to reach distant ledges and also uses Midna's charged attack to defeat multiple enemies at once. Midna is also used as a form of transportation. Wolf Link can speak with Midna and she will [[warp]] him to any place where there is a [[Twilight Portal]] in the sky. When Link is in the [[Light World]], Midna disappears into Link's shadow. Early in the game, Midna takes Link on a quest to recover three [[Fused Shadow]]s, only to have them stolen by [[Zant]].

Midna later tries gaining access to the Twilight Realm only to see that the [[Mirror of Twilight]] is broken. This puts Midna and Link on their next quest to find three [[Mirror Shard]]s and enter the world of Twilight. Midna's character goes through quite an evolution throughout the game as her motives have changed because of the selflessness of both Link and [[Zelda#Twilight Princess|Princess Zelda]]. At the end of the game, it is revealed that Midna is the Twilight Princess and her true form is revealed.

Zant is the leading villain throughout most of the game. He is a member of the [[Twili]] race and the self-proclaimed ruler of the Twilight. This garnered the name, Usurper King of the Twilight. Zant invades [[Hyrule Castle (Twilight Princess)|Hyrule Castle]] alongside several [[Shadow Beast]]s and forces [[Zelda#Twilight Princess|Princess Zelda]] to surrender. He appears sparingly throughout the game, confronting Midna and Link on several fronts. After gathering the three [[Fused Shadow]]s, Zant steals them from Midna and puts the [[Shadow Crystal]] within Link. This makes Link remain in his wolf form even when in the [[Light World]].

Princess Zelda is the regent of Hyrule but she surrenders to Zant in the hope of preserving the lives of the Hyrulean people. Seemingly imprisoned [[Princess Zelda's Chambers|within her chambers]] in one of the towers of [[Hyrule Castle (Twilight Princess)|Hyrule Castle]], she seems to remain in her normal form when the world is covered in [[Twilight]].

Princess Zelda is the regent of Hyrule. Seemingly imprisoned [[Princess Zelda's Chambers|within her chambers]] in one of the towers of [[Hyrule Castle (Twilight Princess)|Hyrule Castle]], she appears to remain in her normal form when the world is covered in [[Twilight]]. In her first meeting with Wolf Link, she reveals that she surrendered to Zant in the hope of preserving the lives of the Hyrulean people.


At the end of the game, Princess Zelda is seen seemingly unconscious. tries to revive her, only to find that Ganondorf has possessed her. This triggers several final battles of the game, the first being with [[Puppet Zelda|Ganon's Puppet Zelda]]. Princess Zelda is later revived for real and Midna transports her and Link to Hyrule Field while she battles Ganondorf, unsuccessfully. It is here where Princess Zelda summons the four [[Light Spirit]]s to create the [[Light Arrow]]s. She uses these in battle alongside Link to defeat Ganondorf.
Later, when Midna is on her last breath, Zelda shows that she has "[[Triforce of Wisdom|been granted special powers by the goddesses]]". Scanning Wolf Link with it, she tells him to go to the [[Sacred Grove]] to retrieve the Master Sword and drive out the [[Shadow Crystal|evil power]] which keeps him in wolf form. She then transfers her power to Midna to save the latter's life, against Midna's wishes. In the process, she disappears.
 
At the end of the game, Zelda's body is seen as a lifeless trophy for Ganondorf in the throne room of Hyrule Castle. Midna tries to revive her, only to find that Ganondorf has possessed her. This triggers several final battles of the game, the first being with [[Puppet Zelda|Ganon's Puppet Zelda]]. After he is driven out, Princess Zelda is later revived for real. The reunion is cut short by Ganondorf's recovery, however, and Midna transports her and Link to [[Hyrule Field]] while she battles Ganondorf, unsuccessfully. On seeing Midna's defeat and the resulting destruction of Hyrule Castle, Princess Zelda summons the four [[Light Spirit]]s to create the [[Light Arrow]]s. She uses these in battle alongside Link to defeat Ganondorf.

{{main|Ganon}}
{{main|Ganon}}
Ganondorf is the Gerudo King of Evil and is pivotal to the story of Twilight Princess. A flashback shows Ganondorf was sentenced to death by the sages, prior to the game. Since Ganondorf is one of the chosen ones of the Gods, he was unable to be killed by the sages, but instead, breaks free and kills the Sage of Water. The Sages then use the [[Mirror of Twilight]] to banish Ganon into the [[Twilight Realm]].  
Once the [[Gerudo]] "Great King of Evil", Ganondorf was captured and sent for execution in the [[Arbiter's Grounds]] many years before the events of ''Twilight Princess''. However, owing to a "[[Child Ending|divine prank]]" he had been "[[Triforce of Power|blessed with the chosen power of the gods]]". This revealed itself during the attempted execution by the [[Ancient Sages]], allowing him to break free. Immediately, he took the [[Sword of the Six Sages]] from his chest wound, killed the Sage of Water and threatened to escape. Panicking, the remaining Sages then used the [[Mirror of Twilight]] to banish him to the [[Twilight Realm]].  


Later in the game, it is revealed that Ganondorf had influenced Zant to take control of the Twilight Realm. He gave Zant some of his power in return for be allowing to leave the Twilight Realm. Ganondorf makes an appearance in [[Hyrule Castle (Twilight Princess)|Hyrule Castle]] near the end of the game where he sits on the throne. [[Zelda#Twilight Princess|Princess Zelda]] can be found helpless within the same room. This triggers a series of final battles between Ganondorf and Link. The first is when Ganondorf takes control of [[Zelda]] and the first battle is with Ganon's [[Puppet Zelda]]. Afterwards, Ganon then takes a massive beast form and fights Link a second time.  
In more recent times, he appeared to [[Zant]] as a blazing head of flame. Despairing at being passed over for rulership of the [[Twili]], Zant was easily manipulated by Ganondorf. With Ganondorf's power backing him, Zant usurped [[Midna]] and invaded the [[Light World]], giving Ganondorf access to [[Hyrule]] once more.


Midna sends Zelda and Link out of Hyrule Castle after the second battle, indicating she will finish Ganon off. Unfortunately that doesn't happen as even the power of the [[Fused Shadow]] is not enough to defeat Ganon. The next phase of the final battle takes place on horseback. Link and Zelda ride around on [[Epona]] and Princess Zelda shoots Light Arrows at Ganondorf, stunning him and allowing link to slash at him with his sword. The final battle takes place when a ring of fire surrounds Link and Ganon in the middle of Hyrule Field. After a long sword duel Link thrusts his sword through the body of Ganondorf, presumably killing him in the process.
Ultimately, Link and Midna find him in the throne room of [[Hyrule Castle (Twilight Princess)|Hyrule Castle]], with [[Zelda]]'s lifeless body on display as a trophy. Challenging them, he [[Puppet Zelda|takes control of Zelda]] and uses her body to attack. When Midna drives him out, he reforms as the Dark Beast Ganon and faces [[Wolf Link]]. Defeated again, he takes his flaming head form. Seeing this, Midna sends Link and the revived Zelda away and battles Ganondorf alone using the [[Fused Shadow]]. While the fight destroys Hyrule Castle, Ganondorf emerges victorious on horseback, with Midna's helmet as a trophy.

Agitha is a little girl who lives in [[Castle Town]]. Agitha lives in [[Agitha's Castle]], whose name relates to the fact that Agitha views herself as a princess.

There are 12 types of golden bugs, with each coming in pairs, one male and one female.  
Agitha is a little girl who lives in [[Castle Town]] and views herself as the princess of the bug kingdom. She has a passion for [[Golden Bugs|golden bugs]] and has invited all 24 of them to a ball at her castle. There are twelve types of golden bugs, with each coming in pairs, one male and one female. She asks Link to bring the golden bugs that he collects to her house, [[Agitha's Castle]]. For the first golden bug, she will give Link the [[Big Wallet]]. Afterward, she will reward Link with 50 [[rupee]]s for one golden bug and 100 rupees for a golden bug that makes a pair. If Link brings all 24 bugs to her ball, she thanks him and gives him the [[Giant Wallet]]. If Link has golden bugs but doesn't show them to her, she will mention it as Link walks out.
 
Link can bring the golden bugs that he collects to Agitha and she will reward Link with rupees. She will give Link 50 rupees for 1 golden bug and 100 rupees for a golden bug that makes a pair. Once Link gives Agitha a single golden bug, he is rewarded with the big wallet, which allows Link to hold up to 600 rupees rather than the default 300 rupees. If Link returns all 24 bugs, Link gets the giant wallet which holds 1000 rupees. If Link has golden bugs but doesn't show them to her, she will mention it as Link walks out.  


Agitha can be seen outside the south gate of Castle Town searching for bugs during the daytime. She is one of the few people that are not afraid of [[Wolf Link]] and she actually wants to play with him. At sunset she will leave to return to her castle.

Barnes is the owner of the [[Kakariko Village]] bomb shop, [[Barnes Bombs]]. Early on in the game, Barnes can be seen hiding with [[Renado]] from the monsters that have come to the village. Barnes Bombs is closed early on because the route to [[Death Mountain#Twilight Princess|Death Mountain]] is closed due to unsteady relations with the [[Goron]]s. Once it opens up Link can purchase his first [[Bomb Bag|bomb bag]] from Barnes. Barnes will offer regular bombs once the store is open, but later in the game [[Water Bomb|water bombs]] and [[bombling]]s become available. If Link does not have a free bomb bag for a new type of bomb, Barnes will buy back unused bombs, albeit at a steep discount.

He is subsequently escorted to [[Kakariko Village (Twilight Princess)|Kakariko Village]] by Link, [[Telma]] and Ilia for treatment by [[Renado]].  


Once recovered, Prince Ralis is not confident that he will be able to rule over the Zora as their king. Link finds him at his parents' grave, and helps the prince out, giving him the confidence needed to return to Zora's Domain. Prince Ralis is an excellent [[Reekfish]] angler and he gives Link the [[Coral Earring]], which will allow Link to catch Reekfish. After giving the lure, Ralis will return to Zora's Domain to begin his rule.
