What Part of the Triforce Do You Correspond To?

[Shadsie]

Inspired by the What Triforce Would You Want? topic and a similar thread I put up at North Castle.

This isn't about what piece of the Triforce you would want or seek, however, this is about the one that you'd think you'd actually get, or would be inherent in you.

Alright, the Door of Time has been opened and you're wandering into the Sacred Realm. You see the Triforce before you, glowing in all of its golden glory. Mesmerized, you reach out to touch it, but it splits into its three components. One goes into you, whether you like it or not.

Which piece chose you and why?


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Although I don't think my soul corresponds to any particular piece of the Triforce particularly well (I see myself as more aether-powered, mysterious missing gap of Hope or some such silly thing), I think that I stand the most chance of *possibly* being chosen by Courage.

Now, this is different than the Triforce piece I said I wanted in the other poll. (I want Wisdom).

I'm not a particularly bold person. I'm not a big risk-taker or thrill-seeker and avoid danger rather than throwing myself headlong into it for fun (don't ever try to get me on a roller coaster, I *hate* the sensation of falling). However, when it comes to doing what I feel to be the right thing, I've been known to swallow my fear and to just do it.

In the "phobias" topic here, I discovered that I'm just not afraid of a lot of things people fear. Need a spider squished? I'll do it - and if it's a harmless or particularly cool variety, I'm more likely to catch it in a jar and put it outside. I know how to kill a snake. I've done ranch work - working with large, dangerous animals (horses), completely easy and relaxed.

Speaking of horses, I've fallen off them and gotten right back on - which brings me to another point about courage. I'm not brash and bold, but I am determined. When I really want something, I'll be dogged about it. And, so far, I've faced some personal demons and have just kept my grit (at least thus far). I've done the (I feel, at least) the very courageous thing of humbling myself and getting help when I needed it. All in all, I've felt like the world wants to bring me down, but I'm still here.

I moved from one climate to an entirely different one for the sake of love and opportunity. Away from all of my family, too.

I'm... very free with my opinions and views. Here's an area where I do have the "bold" kind of courage. I will voice my thought readily, and it's not always a good thing. I have learned a degree of restraint, but still, I'm quite free with myself. Also, I have been known to stand up for others, even when it hurt my reputation to do so.

So, I don't know. I think out of the three, I have mild "courage" bent to my personality - even though I KNOW that I'm not NEARLY as brave as some of the people I've met on this board.

Perhaps that is why I find Link so easy to write (fanfiction wise)? I just have that tiny spark, tiny though it is?


What's your Triforce?

[Josh]

I think I would easily be chosen by power.

I've never been one to have courage with anything. Whether it's small school projects, jobs, anything, I don't ever have the courage, or enough of it, to take command or do what I have to to get something done.

Wisdom, it may just be my own personal opinion of myself, but I don't see myself as the smartest person in the world, my school, my neighborhood, anything. But if I had to, I wouldn't rely on wisdom.

Power, I think I'd be best suited for, because I love power of anything, I love to kind of be that guy at the top, with the power to do anything that he wants to do, and do whatever he wants to do whenever he wants to do.

So I think I'd get power.

[Zarom]

Me I think it would be wisdom. I'm a pretty smart person, I simply love to learn new things and experience new stuff. I've always been a wiser person than those of my ages and I do have wisdom (altough I'm not old). :triforce:

[Dragon565333]

I would say Courage. I am the one you will see breaking up a fist fight. So I say Courage. But doesn't mean strength is better.

[ShellShocker]

I think I would get the Triforce of Wisdom.

Firstly, I'll say why I wouldn't get Power or Courage.

I wouldn't get Power, because I don't like to be in charge of everything and make everything fall under my decisions, because they can usually be wrong. Power doesn't really seem to fit me at all in this subject.

As for Courage, I'm not really the person you'd call "courageous", or "brave". I'm always wimping out of things and I let my brain get the best of me. I'm too busy thinking of the bad things in a decision than the good things. And I'm always mucking up simple things, which really puts me off and discourages me to do it again.

I think I'd get Wisdom because I'm always interested in learning new things, whoever the teacher may be. I think I'm pretty smart and I can figure out what will happen in situations, and how to go around things. I'm not completely sure, but I reckon I would get the Triforce of Wisdom.

[Nepolink]

All of them are responsing a little bit. however im not a real courageous person after all, the only step i did with many courage was to say yes to do a real difficult job. Im was not the scared person in the workfloor. All the people didn't do, or even dare to fix a huge thing. But i was scary because it was glass, and if you got it in your hand or other places it will bleed for a LONG time. I was taking the risk to fix it all the time, and the only person who did it. In general i'm not courageous... not at all, i only do always the difficult jobs on my own, nobody dares.

Wisdom is totally out of my section. I had smart plans, but it was so easy to come up with them. I was not the high scorer on school, except Math... i was the highest with Math, only the other there where people who scored higher than me. Also im not coming up with smart plans, however my collega's are calling my smart. I become team leader because i was smart.
Totally not true, it was pure power. I run the company not because i was smart. I was actually the strongest Female around there, i always wanted to do the heavy work. Well it was not heavy for me, but others where complaining about that job while i had fun to do it. I was the first female who dares to work with Machines. After doing this a long time my boss askes me to become the new Team Leader. I followed my leader path and learned all the important things, but do do this you needed power. If i wasn't strong enough i could not done this.
People respected me for being the first female machine operator and team leader. I actually think it was Power and Courage the same, because the work is sometimes very heavy and make sometimes 13 hours a day i say Power is fitting the best.
(No i don't like to fight and all, but i was the strongest female with a fun game wrestling xD)

This was really difficult but The Triforce of Power fits the best.

[knowlee]

Hmm...I believe that I would probably correspond to the Triforce of Wisdom. The reason why would be because I know a lot of things from reading. I'm also interested in learning about how things work and how they interact with the environment. I also love to learn about other cultures and such. I have a desire to know such things.

Those are the reasons why I believe that I would get the Triforce of Wisdom. :)

[MrMosley]

Mine would have to be Power. I'm not that courageous of a person (at least not as much as I'd like to be), and I'm smart but not intelligent enough to be granted the Triforce of Wisdom. Once we weed those out, there's only one left, but it fits alright. I like being strong, and I like to sort things out or work on things.

[MalonMaverick11]

I think that for me it's courage. I recently moved away from everyone that i know to a state that i had never been to. I told myself that it would be no big deal, and that if i just press on, everything would be ok. That has always been my lease on life: "ever forward. Even thru the rough times". I think that takes courage.:)

[serotonin_wraith]

Wisdom. I like to learn things, it's one of the major driving forces in my life. But with only 24 hours in a day, and the need for sleep, I'm severely limited in what I can read, watch or listen to. Until instant brain downloads are invented, I'd make do with the triforce (or uniforce!) of wisdom.

Power could come after knowing everything - like, how to become powerful. ;) So, two in one. Same with courage I guess.

[TVTMaster]

I dunno, probably Wisdom. I'm not particularly brave, but I have the same kind of determination and such that Shadsie was talking about. Still, Courage definitely isn't my domain.
Power is even more ridiculous- I'm fifteen and finally hit 100 pounds a few days ago. I mean, I've started going to the gym, but Power definitely is the one least suited to me.
So I'd have to go with Wisdom. I mean, I'm in college right now at aforementioned age 15, and by all accounts I'm really, like, book-smart, but in the definition of "wisdom", I'm not so sure. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, though, so being in the minority of people with said fear is probably a point in my favor there. So, yeah, Wisdom, mainly since the other's don't fit.

[Megamannt125]

Power obviously, i'm not that courageous, and i'm not sure if I can really classify myself as having Wisdom.

[Bob Majinki]

I think my most distinct quality of those three would have to be wisdom. I have little to no physical strength whatsoever unless I'm in dire situations, in which you usually find out that your "fight or flight" instincts work incredibly well. As for courage, I have courage to stand up to no-good lying politicians and expose them as the hacks they are, and I have no fear of spiders, snakes, or other such things (actually I'm intrigued by them). I do find it difficult to see war images, blood, and other related atrocities of nature. However, note that for blood I only get queasy when it's in the war image context. If a guy cuts his arm and bleeds, I will check if he's okay, but I won't freak out.

The things I think I would be scared of the most would be everything that happens in a surgeon's office, and certain dogs that I've met in my life who would love nothing more than to pass liquid atop of me...

[fiercedeity619]

even though i would love to have the triforce of courage i woul have to say the triforce of wisdom because i usually think thing through before i do something

[Durion]

I had to really think about this and I still haven't came to a conclusion...

Firstly though, I can rule the Triforce of Power out, I don't like being in charge and I'm not the kind of person that stands out as an Alpha male of sorts. I like to be the more quiet guy and not gather attention to myself.

So that leaves the Triforce of Courage and Triforce of Wisdom. I don't really stand out fully in both but neither am I someone that doesn't contain both. I have a fair amount of knowledge although there is a lot lot more for me to learn about everything. I do have courage as well as long as I'm not infront of friends.

I imagine that I would be most likely to get the Triforce of Courage if I were to recieve it and be like Link...mainly alone other than the strangers I meet around me. I'm still unsure though but I don't think that I would be able to fit Zelda's position anywhere near as well as that of Links.

[Master Kokiri 9]

I'd say either wisdom or courage. I'm rather smart (normally A's and B's on my report card) and i'm always in the search of more knowledge. And courage cuz it takes a lot to scare me and you need the element of surprise to do so and usually if my sister and my best friend are fighting and mom isn't there i usually try to break it up. And also because i am a huge thrill seekr (i love roller coasters) and i tend to do things as ww link would do. I go forth in fighting for whats right and i don't give in. And many people call me brave, brash, couragous ect. As for power i am phyically very weak. So yeah if not courage i'll get wisdom.

[octorok74]

I know for a fact that I would recieve Wisdom. Not only am I wiser then the kids in my school, some of the teachers, and my parents on most subjects; but I help a lot of students come up with decisions for short and long term effects. I'm like Zelda's brother or something.

[Axle the Beast]

Uh, tough question. But I guess I'd choose Courage.

I'm not into power very much at all. Having it isn't a bad thing, and I can't say I wouldn't like it, but it's not something I'm that into.

Wisdom is the closest for me other than Courage. I consider myself quite smart, and I do believe knowledge to be one of the most important and powerful things in the world.

But... I don't know. When it comes to my core personality and basic philosophies, I don't think Power or Wisdom really apply to me that much. I'm not afraid of anything in particular, save for extremely severe and horrible things that will probably never happen, so in that I'm not exactly afraid of them because I don't believe they'll occur. Things that I am a little scared of or freaked out about I usually am able to face. I just think Courage fits me more.

[Alex_Da_Great]

Courage. I usually have the courage to face things and not to be afraid, to take a risk. For example, you are with a group of friends and they are planning on doing something but no one is willing to volunteer. I would never be afraid and would have the courage to do whatever it is.

I definately don't have power. I am just not the type of person that controls everyone. I am usually in the pack...

Wisdom would come a close second. I am smart, yes. Very? Yes. But I just don't have the wisdom. I don't have what it takes to be the three wise men! :P

[Qwerty0805]

:rolleyes:I was reading 500 page books in 2nd grade, I have an IQ that officially makes me a genius, and I find the puzzles in the water temple too easy :). I have several fears so I don't fit with courage, and I don't really see how I have any power. So wisdom.

[Gohma]

Wisdom.
I'm by far not the wisest person in the world, but I'm not very courageous and I'm not powerful either (oh no)

So if I could somehow get (steal >D ) a part of the Triforce I think I would get the Triforce of Wisdom.

[Link428]

I think courage because I stand up for others when they need help.

[Master Kokiri 9]

:rolleyes:I was reading 500 page books in 2nd grade, I have an IQ that officially makes me a genius, and I find the puzzles in the water temple too easy :). I have several fears so I don't fit with courage, and I don't really see how I have any power. So wisdom.

Well having fears doesn't mean you aren't brave. Bravery is basically being able to stand up to what you're scared of. It's very different from fearlessness. My last words are 500 page books?! Holy crap!! What exactly is your IQ? I'm kinda curious on that. And dang the puzzles in the water temple are too easy for you? Oy vey! I still think I'd get courage if I got to the triforce. After all there isn't much I'm truly afraid of and then I'd be able to face them most of the time. I also am a very persistant person. I'd do something I need to do if it took me years. After all I beat WW in about 7 years. If courage already had a bearer then I'd probably get wisdom. After all I get pretty decent grades, I have a very expansive vocabulary (ever since I was a little kid), and I have an above average IQ. There's other stuff but I'm pretty sure nobody'll believe me. Although power there's no way I'd get it. I'm very weak (in fact sometimes I have trouble lifting a pot of water). Then there's the fact that I just hate power all together. It just corrupts people to the point of Ganon.

[NorthApple]

I'd like to think I'd get Courage, but I probably wouldn't.
Normal stuff people squeal at doesn't really bother me.. spiders, snakes, blood etc. (gore really doesn't bother me for some reason... mummified bodies on the other hand...) Heights also make my legs go weak, however, but with enough determination you can still manage things. But courage isn't about having no fears, it's about overcoming them when you need to.
Like what Shadsie said, I tend to be pretty stubborn and very determined when I set my mind to something, and I don't tend to let accidents or bad experiences faze me. The very first time I finally went Ice Skating (I could already do it because I roller-bladed a lot) my skate hit a hole in the ice, and I went flying, shredding the skin on my elbow and hip, scraping my hands raw, and bruising my cheek. Friends clinging to the sides like "Omg are you okay?! Omg I'd be sat at the side right now", but I went and cleaned myself up, and came straight back on and skated around again, no big deal. I didn't even think anything of it until they started fussing. I guess it comes from climbing trees and walls as a kid- if you fall then you get back up and try again. I guess that's become one of my philosophies, but I'm getting off topic.
I don't mind getting my hands dirty either, heh I remember once I was at a camp with school, and we had to do this teamwork thing building this path across the mud with slabs, and one of them sunk right into the mud, you could barely see it, and in the end it was me who dug my hands right under and pulled it out (even though there were several boys on our team). I also tend to stand up for others too, and if someone I know's in danger or pain, I'll do whatever I can to help them, not matter what will happen to me personally. I'm not afraid to voice my opinion- if something's not right then it needs pointing out and fixing, not carefully stepping around because someone's to afraid to point it out. Again, sometimes I should keep my mouth shut more, buuuut.

And, by my own logic, I've just proved why I'd almost certainly get Wisdom instead. I love to look deep into things, philosophy is a subject that really interests me. I love to learn about the world and how it works more than anything else. I find you feel so alive, so necessary when discoving something new, a facet of life you'd never before uncovered. I tend to waffle on to people about things that no one but me would ever find interesting, but that doesn't matter. I guess I'm still just a curious kid inside. I also find people tend to come to me when they're upset- they say I know just what to say to make them feel better, that I have words of wisdom for every situation xDDD

...actually, at first I was annoyed I'd get wisdom, but actually it fits me well.. better than I thought. It'd be cool to have it, actually. This is an awesome thread.

[Twilight Prince]

I see myself as a smart person, I am very good in school, so I would be Wisdom. I have never been the most powerful/strong and what not. I have never been the bravest person either, so that's why I am Wisdom rather then Power, and Courage.

[zeldatwilight]

I would say that i am the triforce of Wisdom. I think im a smart person, and can be wise at some times. When i get infront of people, or am asked to do something for more than one person, i get nervous, thus not having enough courage. And i am not a "strong" person either, so the only other option is wisdom.

[Shnappy]

Well, I'm kind of well rounded, to be quite honest.

I'm one of the smartest kids in the grade. I took a formal IQ test in 6th grade, about a year ago, and my IQ is 141. Teachers have always been very fond of me, because of my intelligence and ability to learn.


As for power, I'm pretty athletic, but I'm not sure about how "powerful" I am. In gym class at school, I'm one of most athletic and best runners in the class, and am near the top of the class in push-up tests and curl-up tests. Though I'm not really all that powerful, I don't have a lot of "meat" on me so to say.

As for courage, I stand up for myself. I haven't really ever been faced with situations where I've had to stand up to myself against someone being mean, bullying, or picking on me. But I've overcome things I was initially too scared to do.

But If I had to choose one, I'd go with wisdom. While it might not seem that way to others, to me, my wisdom stands out more than my power, or my courage, so I'm going to go with wisdom.

[Oathkeeper95]

Hmmmm, this is one of those soul-search kind of questions that i do not like at at because it really requiresme to search deep-down and really THINK.

I guess i can rule out the possibility of power ( which seems to be what everybody else on this thread is doing to ). Im not exactly the contrlling type and sure sometimes i LIKE to take charge for once i really dont think im best suited to be a guy of power. Im extremely undicided most of the time and have frozen under pressure more than once ( which is a real pain when someone wise-cracks to me at school and i freeze up and cant think of a [good] comeback). Personally i highly doubt power would go to me.

Next comes wisdom. Now i have a better chance of getting wisdom then power but im dont think ill actually get it. Sure i get good grades when i remember to do my homework and can finish classwork/tests in a snap. I can click things together in my head really fast that helps me do schoolwork but i dont think getting As or being good at tests really makes you smart or wise. Plus i can be really stupid sometimes and have kicked myself and lost respect from oters because of my accursed tongue. What im trying to say is that im good at tests and can get As but that does not necesarily make me wise now does it? Being wise is knowing what to do when something terrible happens in your life and knowing just the right thing to say at people to make them feel. I may be sorta smart ( define smart) but i really doubt im any kind of wise.

Lastly would be courage, and you would think that this one would be the one for me, but im not sure. I get scared like everybody else but im not scared to try new things and i will not let things get in my way if i want something. Sure, ill let people walk all over me ( whats the point in wasting your energy in every idiot that comes your way?) but i will not let them get in my way when i want something. But if i remember correctly, then courage means being strong no matter how bad things get. I havent exactly been able to prove my courage yet so i dont know how couragous i am yet. I do know that im willing to do new tings and even if i get scared ill sludge my way through.

Im not sure if ill get ourage or wisdom but i think im more couragous than wise so I think ill get couage ( even though it pains me to go with the crowd and choose the piece that im sure most of the voteers have posted already).

[Linkette]

I think I have more wisdom than courage, because I'm quite good at maths (I have maths masterclasses, but wisdom really isn't really being smart. It's also about thinking about yourself, people and things around you.
Unluckily, I don't have as much courage but I'm not afraid to have talks in front of the whole school. But when it comes talking to people who I don't know (especially aduts) I go all shy and refuse to speak.
