==Appearances==
==Overview==
===The Wind Waker===
Sturgeon is the wise old man with the large upper head. He lives on the top floor of the [[Orca and Sturgeon's House|two floor house]] on [[Outset Island]], which he shares with his brother, [[Orca]].
Sturgeon is the wise old man with the large upper head who lives on the top floor of the two floor house on [[Outset Island]] with his brother [[Orca]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]''. He would love to live in a world where there are no loud noises or disturbances, and despises the art of swordsmanship and the loud ways his brother Orca practices it downstairs. Even though he hates sword fighting, he used to be an accomplished swordsman when he was a young man. But with age, he grew to dislike it, and focuses his days on being locked in his room, reading factual books and expanding his endless knowledge. Because of his wiseness, he is known on Outset Island as the "Living Encyclopedia" and is commonly asked questions that the residents don't know the answers to. He angers very easily, and is sent over the deep end when his brother practices his strength downstairs and knocks everything off his shelves that he had placed so precariously there. Sturgeon is the character in this game who teaches [[Link]] the basic controls, for example, how to look around and [[Z-Targeting|L-Targeting]]. Lined along Sturgeon's walls are notes on paper he wrote to himself about useful items like how to save, how to use maps, and what [[Recovery Heart]]s are used for. When he was a young man, he set out with his brother to find and collect ten [[Knight's Crest]]s, which was needed to become a true swordsman and learn a special move. They never found them all however, and Orca left the task to Link.


===The Minish Cap===
He would love to live in a world where there are no loud noises or disturbances, and he despises the art of swordsmanship. This is contrary to the loud ways his brother Orca practices downstairs.{{Ref|TWW|722|Sturgeon}}{{Ref|TWW|723|Sturgeon}} Even though he hates sword fighting, he used to be an accomplished swordsman when he was a young man. But with age, he grew to dislike it, and focuses his days on being locked in his room, reading factual books and expanding his endless knowledge. Because of his wiseness, he is known on Outset Island as the "Living Encyclopedia" and is commonly asked questions that the residents don't know the answers to. He angers very easily, and is sent over the deep end when his brother practices his strength downstairs and knocks everything off his shelves that he had placed so precariously there.
Sturgeon also makes a brief appearance in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap|The Minish Cap]]'', where he is found in the library commenting on how he thinks the books are moving by themselves. The [[Minish]], however, are responsible for these tricks.


Sturgeon is the character in this game who teaches [[Link (The Wind Waker)|Link]] the basic controls, for example, how to look around and [[Z-Targeting|L-Targeting]].{{Ref|TWW|716|Sturgeon}}{{Ref|TWW|718|Sturgeon}} Sturgeon encourages Link to climb up the ladder and drop by his room to learn more tricks.{{Ref|TWW|717|Sturgeon}}{{Ref|TWW|719|Sturgeon}} Lined along Sturgeon's walls are notes on paper he wrote to himself about useful items like how to save, how to use maps, and what [[Recovery Heart]]s are used for.{{Ref|TWW|720|Sturgeon}}{{Ref|TWW|721|Sturgeon}}{{Ref|TWW|724|Sturgeon}}


At nighttime, Sturgeon can be found upstairs and his granddaughter joins him for the evening. When Link returns to the island, Sturgeon is concerned about the health of Link's [[Grandma]]. He suggests giving her a [[Fairy]] and mentions that long ago, it was easy to capture a Fairy in a [[Bottle]] up within the [[Forest of Fairies]]. However, ever since a giant rock blocked the fairy, that hasn't been the case.{{Ref|TWW|726|Sturgeon}} He seems to give some hints that Link can use a [[Bomb]] to break the cracks of the rock that is blocking the Fairy Fountain.{{Ref|TWW|727|Sturgeon}}
