-'''Rauru''' is one of the [[Seven Sages]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'' and the true form of [[Kaepora Gaebora]].
+'''Rauru''' is a supporting protagonist in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]''. He is the [[Seven Sages|Sage of Light]], and the true form of [[Kapeora Gaebora]].
+==Appearance==
+Rauru is an old, [[Hylian]] male, with a white ponytail and beard that stretches across his face, between the nose and mouth. He has deep blue eyes, and wears an orange robe with scarlet and white outer garments. The [[Triforce]] is emblazoned on the center of his garments, surrounded by deep purple petals.
 ==''Ocarina of Time''==
-After [[Link (Ocarina of Time)|Link]] wakes up from his seven-year slumber, he encounters Rauru in the [[Sacred Realm]]. Rauru proceeds to explain why Link was trapped in there for seven years, and also tells him that while he slept, [[Ganon]]dorf had free access to the Sacred Realm and consequently to the [[Triforce]]. He then gained the power to take over Hyrule. Finally, he reveals Link's destiny: to become the [[Hero of Time]]. Then, he tells Link to find the other Sages and add their power to his own, giving him the [[Light Medallion]].
+===Past===
+During the [[Interloper Conflict|Era of Chaos]] and shortly before the kingdom of [[Hyrule]] was established by the [[Royal Family of Hyrule]], Rauru built the [[Temple of Time]] over the remains of the [[Sealed Temple]] in [[Faron Woods]], with the aim of protecting the Triforce from the war. Rauru named the Temple after the legends of a [[Link (Skyward Sword)|hero]] who had travelled between time periods to defeat a [[Demise|great evil]], and chose to remain in the [[Chamber of Sages]] as the Sage of Light in order to watch over the Triforce - he would take the form of an owl, Kaepora Gaebora, to watch over Hyrule. The knowledge of the [[Sacred Realm]] was passed down only to the [[Sheikah]], and as a result, Rauru faded into obscurity.
-Later in the game, it is Rauru who tells Link to return to the [[Temple of Time]] after awakening all of the Sages. Also, at the end, Rauru helps seal Ganon away in the [[Dark Realm]].
+===Adult===
+While he would aid [[Link (Ocarina of Time)|Link]] numerous times during the child era via his owl form, Rauru does not appear in person until Link pulls the [[Master Sword]] from the [[Pedestal of Time]], caring for the boy as he remained in stasis. When Link turned 16, Rauru awoke Link from his slumber, greeting him and explaining the past events. He states that Link must awaken the other Sages so they can seal [[Ganon|Ganondorf]] and his evil away in the [[Sacred Realm]], and gives Link the [[Light Medallion]] as a token of his favor. Later, once Link has awakened five of the seven Sages, Rauru instructs Link to return to the Temple of Time to meet someone; that someone turns out to be [[Sheik]], who reveals her true identity as [[Zelda (Ocarina of Time)|Zelda]], the seventh Sage.
-==Other Appearances==
+After Zelda is captured by Ganondorf, Rauru instructs Link to save her and assures him that he and the other Sages will support him, creating a bridge into [[Ganon's Castle]]. In the finale, when Link defeats Ganon, Rauru and the other Sages seal him away in the [[Evil Realm]], liberating Hyrule from the King of Evil's tyranny.
-===''Majora's Mask''===
-Given the appearance of Kaepora Gaebora, Rauru is shown to be present in [[Termina]].
-===''The Wind Waker''===

-Even though Rauru does not make an appearance physically in-game, a stained glass window of him can be seen in [[Hyrule Castle]], along with the Stained Glass of the other Sages.
+While Rauru makes no physical appearance in this game, a stained-glass depiction of him can be seen in the basement of [[Hyrule Castle (The Wind Waker)|Hyrule Castle]], alongside the other Sages.

 ==Trivia==
-* According to ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia|Hyrule Historia]]'', Rauru built the [[Temple of Time]] before the great war.
+*''[[Hyrule Historia]]'' confirms that Rauru and Kaepora Gaebora are the same.
+*Like the other Sages, Rauru was named after [[Rauru Town]] in ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link|The Adventure of Link]]''.
+*[[Gaebora]] is heavily based on Rauru, in both appearance and personality.
