Right. If we need to, we can double up. Two characters per person, but I want to wait a little bit before we start doing that.

I call male Sheik if we double up!

Before anybody says Sheik is female, I have a long, argument against it. So don't even get me started.

I won't place a claim until I have to. I want to leave things open for new players.

Shouldn't have said that. I know that. And what better way to hide than become a male? Ganon was looking for a Hylian girl, not a Sheikah boy. We already know that magic was used to disguise Zelda, and it would be very easy to change your gender through magic. If you look at concept art of Ocarina of Time, its very very obvious that Sheik is male.

As to why Sheik's gender was changed for more recent games. Think of what Nintendo could get away with during the N64 era. Have you ever heard of a game called Conker's Bad Fur Day? That was Nintendo. Nowadays things are different and they wouldn't be able to get away with Zelda genderswapping. Which is why they changed Sheik to female. But I will ALWAYS see Sheik as a male.

I like to think of Sheik and Zelda as two separate people. The Ocarina of Time manga stated that Impa sealed Zelda's consciousness away before changing her using magic. So Sheik was his own person in that.

Here's a link to the concept art btw. http://images.wikia.com/zelda/images/6/69/Sheik_Artwork.png

I suppose that would make some kind of sense.

I may very well commit to this. The universe of the Legend of Zelda is one of my favorite of all time, and the chance to reimagine a part of it with others isn't something I'd like to pass up. If I join I will be choosing Zant, pretty much for certain, though I would be very much in support of two characters per person since I imagine we wouldn't get too many more interested people. Plus the guy who claimed Ben Drowned has yet to post.

Zant Is a great choice and you are welcome to join. The more I think about doubling up, the more appealing it sounds. So I believe we should do that. I have to think of another character for myself.

Lugubrious, If you could post a picture of Zant that you like, I will put you on the list.

Is there anyone considering picking up the mantle of Zelda? If no one else is I'd be willing to do it.

Go for it. Zelda is necessary, I believe. Especially considering we only have two parts of the Triforce currently enrolled.

Then here we go.

and...


Since it seems that we are taking creative liberties, I believe I will be altering the situation of these two somewhat. Rather than at odds, I will have them be on the same side: freedom fighters discretely trying to gather support to start an uprising against Ganondorf.

We should make Zant a double spy o.o and Midna is in.

Navi is accepted. Just post the picture of her you like best and I'll set you up. Ben Drowned is the kid from Majora's Mask that is known for saying "You shouldn't have done that."
