River Zora are the only variety seen in ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]''. They only appear on screens where there is water. They will hide under the water and occasionally pop out, shooting fireballs out towards Link. These fireballs can only be blocked with the [[Magical Shield]]. | River Zora are the only variety seen in ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]''. They only appear on screens where there is water.

{{Quote|Like Poseidon in his day, Zora ruled the waterways of Hyrule, controlling storm and calm, current and waterfall. Zora's Spawn answered only to him, and he determined who would use the Whirlpools that carried swimmers from place to place. Zora's special Flippers let swimmers tread in even the deepest waters, but they cost deeply.|''[[A Link to the Past Nintendo Player's Guide]]''}} | {{Quote|Like Poseidon in his day, Zora ruled the waterways of Hyrule, controlling storm and calm, current and waterfall.

Once again, River Zora appear in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]''. They behave similarly to their counterparts in ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'' by diving underwater and only coming up to shoot fireballs at Link. However, King Zora is not hostile. He will sell Link the [[Flippers]]. | Once again, River Zora appear in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]''.

The River Zora appear again in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]'' as enemies inhabiting the water areas such as [[Martha's Bay]]. There is only one [[Secret Zora|friendly Zora]] in the game that can be found in [[Animal Village]]. He can only be seen with the [[Magnifying Lens]] in the house in the northeast of the village. When Link talks to him, the [[Photographer]] appears and takes a picture of the pair. | The River Zora appear again in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]'' as enemies inhabiting the water areas such as [[Martha's Bay]].

There is only one Zora in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'': [[Laruto]], the Sage of Earth. She was killed by [[Ganon]]dorf to prevent her from praying to keep the power to repel evil in the [[Master Sword]]. Her spirit remains in the [[Earth Temple (The Wind Waker)|Earth Temple]] until Link plays the [[Earth God's Lyric]]. She tells him to go and find her descendant, a [[Rito]] girl named [[Medli]]. | There is only one Zora in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'': [[Laruto]], the Sage of Earth.

[[Eiji Aonuma]] has said that the Rito are the evolved form of the Zora. The Rito make many references to the Zora, such as the symbol of the Zora's Sapphire appearing on clothing, but the most convincing fact is that Medli shares a bloodline with a Zora, Laruto. | [[Eiji Aonuma]] has said that the Rito are the evolved form of the Zora.

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'', the Zora once more are a peaceful race residing in Zora's Domain, near [[Lake Hylia (Twilight Princess)|Lake Hylia]]. When Link first arrives, their home is covered in ice, but he can easily unfreeze it with a large volcanic rock from [[Death Mountain]]. The Zora were ruled by Queen Rutela until her death, when her son, [[Prince Ralis]], was supposed to take over. | In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'', the Zora once more are a peaceful race residing in Zora's Domain, near [[Lake Hylia (Twilight Princess)|Lake Hylia]].

The Zora were ruled by Queen Rutela until her death, when her son, [[Prince Ralis]], was supposed to take over. Link finds Prince Ralis in [[Castle Town]], where [[Ilia]] is trying to save him from sickness. Queen Rutela's ghost asks Link to save her son, so he guides Ralis, [[Telma]], and Ilia across [[Hyrule Field]] to [[Kakariko Village (Twilight Princess)|Kakariko Village]]. Once Ralis is safe, Rutela gives Link the [[Zora Armor]] in the [[Graveyard (Twilight Princess)|Graveyard]]. | ||
