Unveiling the Steed Behind the Hero<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n<p>Link, the iconic protagonist of The Legend of Zelda series, is known for his courage, his sword skills, and his trusty steed. While many players immediately think of <strong>Epona<\/strong> when a Zelda horse is mentioned, the answer to the question &#8220;What is Link&#8217;s <em>default<\/em> horse name?&#8221; isn&#8217;t as straightforward. The answer is: <strong>Link&#8217;s Horse<\/strong>. Yes, the default horse that Link is often seen riding in trailers, memories, and during the final battle of <em>Breath of the Wild<\/em> is simply referred to as &#8220;<strong>Link&#8217;s Horse<\/strong>&#8220;. This unnamed steed is the canonical default, distinct from the legendary Epona, and it plays a unique role in Link&#8217;s adventures.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Understanding_Links_Default_Horse\"><\/span>Understanding Link&#8217;s Default Horse<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Not_Epona_but_Still_Special\"><\/span>Not Epona, but Still Special<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>It&#8217;s easy to confuse Link&#8217;s default horse with Epona, the chestnut mare that has become synonymous with the series. However, <strong>&#8220;Link&#8217;s Horse&#8221;<\/strong> is not Epona. This unnamed, typically brown, horse serves as the primary mount for Link in <em>Breath of the Wild<\/em> when a player doesn&#8217;t have a registered horse or during specific key moments in the game. Unlike Epona, who is obtainable only through <strong>Amiibo<\/strong>, Link&#8217;s default horse is a free and readily available steed within the game.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Significance_of_%E2%80%9CLinks_Horse%E2%80%9D\"><\/span>The Significance of &#8220;Link&#8217;s Horse&#8221;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>While not having a fancy name, this horse is quite significant. It is heavily featured in promotional material for <em>Breath of the Wild<\/em>, showcasing Link\u2019s travels across Hyrule. It\u2019s present during crucial <strong>memories<\/strong>, including <strong>Memory #5<\/strong> and <strong>Memory #14<\/strong>, emphasizing its connection to Link&#8217;s personal history and the story&#8217;s narrative. Furthermore, during the final battle against Calamity Ganon, if the player does not have a registered horse, &#8220;Link&#8217;s Horse&#8221; is the steed Link rides into the final fray, further solidifying its status as the hero\u2019s default ride. This shows that the horse is intended to be seen as an extension of the hero himself, a loyal companion, rather than just any horse.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_Design_Choice\"><\/span>A Design Choice<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The decision to give Link a default horse without a specific name is likely intentional. It allows for a sense of player agency, enabling them to form a personal connection with the mount they choose to ride while also acknowledging the important default steed that Link has throughout the main events of the game. This distinction between &#8220;Link&#8217;s Horse&#8221; and Epona maintains the special status of the legendary mare while still providing players with a reliable steed when they first begin.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_Asked_Questions_FAQs_About_Links_Horses\"><\/span>Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Link&#8217;s Horses<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Here are some frequently asked questions to further clarify the topic of Link&#8217;s horse(s) and the lore surrounding them:<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Who_is_Epona\"><\/span>1. Who is Epona?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Epona<\/strong> is the iconic, recurring fictional horse in The Legend of Zelda series. She first appeared in <em>Ocarina of Time<\/em> and is known for being Link&#8217;s main mode of transportation. Her name is derived from the Celtic goddess of horses. Epona is typically depicted as a chestnut mare with a white mane.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Can_you_get_Epona_in_Breath_of_the_Wild\"><\/span>2. Can you get Epona in <em>Breath of the Wild<\/em>?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Yes, you can obtain <strong>Epona<\/strong> in <em>Breath of the Wild<\/em>, but it is not easy. You must use a specific <strong>Amiibo<\/strong>, either the <strong>Super Smash Bros. Series Link Amiibo<\/strong> or the <strong>Twilight Princess Link Amiibo<\/strong>, to have a chance to summon her.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_How_can_you_get_Epona_in_Tears_of_the_Kingdom\"><\/span>3. How can you get Epona in <em>Tears of the Kingdom<\/em>?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Similar to <em>Breath of the Wild<\/em>, the only way to obtain <strong>Epona<\/strong> in <em>Tears of the Kingdom<\/em> is by scanning the <strong>Smash Bros. 4 Link<\/strong> or the <strong>Twilight Princess Link Amiibo<\/strong>. It is not a guaranteed spawn, so you may need to try multiple times.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_What_breed_is_Epona_thought_to_be\"><\/span>4. What breed is Epona thought to be?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Based on her build and appearance, <strong>Epona<\/strong> resembles a light draught horse breed, such as a <strong>Noriker<\/strong>. This makes her well-suited for the mountainous terrain often encountered in Hyrule.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Does_Zelda_have_a_horse\"><\/span>5. Does Zelda have a horse?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Yes, Princess Zelda has a horse named <strong>Storm<\/strong>, as revealed in the Valiant Comics. Storm is described as a large, white horse who aids Zelda during critical moments. In <em>Tears of the Kingdom<\/em>, Zelda also has a unique <strong>Golden Horse<\/strong>, which can be obtained by players.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_What_is_the_name_of_Zeldas_white_horse_in_the_comics\"><\/span>6. What is the name of Zelda&#8217;s white horse in the comics?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Zelda&#8217;s white horse in the Valiant Comics is named <strong>Storm<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Is_%E2%80%9CLinks_Horse%E2%80%9D_a_male_or_female\"><\/span>7. Is &#8220;Link&#8217;s Horse&#8221; a male or female?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The default horse, &#8220;<strong>Link&#8217;s Horse<\/strong>,&#8221; does not have a clearly defined gender in the games. It&#8217;s mostly referred to as just &#8220;Link&#8217;s Horse&#8221;, so the gender is largely unimportant.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Is_Epona_male_or_female\"><\/span>8. Is Epona male or female?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Epona<\/strong> is confirmed to be a <strong>mare<\/strong> (a female horse) in the series.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_What_is_the_default_horses_unique_quality\"><\/span>9. What is the default horse&#8217;s unique quality?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>While it might not be the most exciting answer, the unique thing about &#8220;<strong>Link&#8217;s Horse<\/strong>&#8221; is that it serves as the default mount that all players use at the beginning and at critical cinematic moments. This horse is specifically used during official trailers, memory flashbacks, and the final boss battle if the player has not registered a horse.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10_Can_you_customize_%E2%80%9CLinks_Horse%E2%80%9D\"><\/span>10. Can you customize &#8220;Link&#8217;s Horse&#8221;?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>No, as the default horse is not registered, you cannot customize &#8220;Link&#8217;s Horse&#8221; through any means. The color and design are pre-set.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"11_What_is_the_significance_of_Malanya\"><\/span>11. What is the significance of Malanya?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Malanya<\/strong> is the god of horses in <em>Tears of the Kingdom<\/em>. He offers aid to players who care for horses, allowing them to strengthen or even revive their equine allies.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"12_What_is_Ganons_horse_called\"><\/span>12. What is Ganon&#8217;s horse called?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Ganondorf\u2019s horse in <em>Tears of the Kingdom<\/em> is not specifically named, but it is a distinct black <strong>Gerudo stallion<\/strong> with a fiery mane and tail.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"13_Is_Epona_a_God\"><\/span>13. Is Epona a God?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>No, <strong>Epona<\/strong> is not a God. However, in Celtic mythology, <strong>Epona<\/strong> was the goddess of horses. The Legend of Zelda&#8217;s <strong>Epona<\/strong> is inspired by this deity but does not hold any divine power in-game.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"14_Is_it_a_coincidence_that_the_horse_god_in_Zelda_is_named_Malanya_and_a_Goddess_is_named_Epona\"><\/span>14. Is it a coincidence that the horse god in Zelda is named Malanya and a Goddess is named Epona?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>No, this is likely an intentional design choice. The name <strong>Epona<\/strong> is directly inspired by the Celtic Goddess of Horses, while <strong>Malanya<\/strong> is very similar to the horse god from Slavic folklore, <strong>Malan<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"15_Does_Link_have_a_full_name\"><\/span>15. Does Link have a full name?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>According to Shigeru Miyamoto, Link&#8217;s full name is <strong>Link Link<\/strong>, a humorous nod to the idea that Mario&#8217;s full name is Mario Mario, in reference to the 1993 Super Mario Bros. movie.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>While <strong>Epona<\/strong> holds a special place in the hearts of many Zelda fans, it is essential to recognize <strong>&#8220;Link&#8217;s Horse&#8221;<\/strong> as the true default steed for the hero. This unnamed horse is a faithful and consistent companion throughout the epic journey, highlighting the special connection Link has with his default mount during the major events in the game. Understanding the distinction between &#8220;Link&#8217;s Horse&#8221; and Epona provides a clearer understanding of the nuanced lore of The Legend of Zelda series. Whether you&#8217;re galloping through Hyrule on Epona or journeying on the dependable &#8220;Link&#8217;s Horse,&#8221; the bonds between Link and his equine companions are an integral part of the Zelda experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is Link&#8217;s Default Horse Name?
