It's the cowboy in me trying to escape through creative means Wrangle's Lore dump is here!!! He's... hmmmmm... basically a Link that became an Epona

Poor guy comes from a Hyrule where everyone is enjoying the peace a little too much. So much so that when the residents of the Central City heard some country kid was being claimed as the hero, they're a little reluctant to be living through another dark time in Hyrule's history. A hero showing up means terrible things, so whats a city of snobs to do but bully this "Link" child. He runs from a crowd that had gotten a hold of him and ends up where the Triforce chills out and accidentally makes a wish to the darn thing from his pleas. "I dont want to be seen as the hero. I want to run away." And the Triforce said "Bet." Next thing Link knows is he's standing on shaking foal legs and a golden set of reins settles on his head. He couldn't do much as guards heard the commotion only to find this pony hanging about and hey free horse with a side of panic as their golden relic is completely gone. Years past and Link gets the reputation of being a brute, but does enjoy watching the people panic over a doomsday that hasn't really shown any evidence at happening. He gets to live life as a work horse and bucking cocky lawmen off of him. Until one day the infamous horse thief, Midna, stops by and skips him to go after the other horses first. Only she has to hide in his stall at almost being caught before she could leave with the last horse. The guards are furious that he's the only horse left and if they can't ride him what's the point. They gang up on him to be sold and buy other horses to another farmer, butcher, glue factory, anything. Link bucks and fights but theres too many of them. But when he all but gives up Midna comes tearing out of her hiding spot and fights her way through the guards on him. She gets real hurt in the fight, but Link charges towards her and all but throws her on his back as he bolts out of the city. They get away and have a mutual respect for one another and are pals from then on. Link never really reveals he's a person, he just stays as a loyal steed. It's simpler to him.

Thinking about my blorbos

A commission of a friend's Link OC, thank you!!! :D

ignore that I didn't finish it i don't wanna (maybe later)

hey, hey, hey, guess what time it is? TIME FOR ANOTHER LINKSONA BABBYYYYY

Meet this asshole. I don't got a hero name for him yet so he's just goin' by "Drac". His is more mixed clash of bloodbourne, castlevania and the witcher. You'll prolly see some similar themes in here.

Info: He's 6ft 8in / 203 cm. A vampire. His timeline is sommeewhere before?? Signal's (in modern terms of era, he's def late 1700s to early/mid 1800s). He's an ass to put it short, stoic upon meeting yet can be very gruff/blunt. A lone wolf that likes to do things his way. Definitely a flirt for sure. He's softie when he grows close to those he consider his family.

Background: Drac/Link was born a vampire, just like his family. He grew up in a village south of the Snowy Peaks that ended up becoming smaller due to a raid from a pack of outlawed werewolves. He, of course, lost his family in the process, save for his little sister and a few of the remaining survivors of said village. It was hard on him growing up without his family, hard to survive since he had to take on the adult mantle too soon. He's trying his best to keep his sister alive, due to the poison from a werewolf bite that was inflicted upon her during the raid.

She remains bedridden or bound to a wheelchair cause of the weakness and agony she feels each time she tries to stand. He hates seeing her so sickly and bound to a room with no freedom to run like she once used to do.

Drac did happen upon the werewolf that killed his family, poisoned his sister and help the others raid his village. The wolf taunted him to which he responds in kind with a longsword impaling the wolf's chest, stripping the wolf bare of it's fur and wearing it to taunt the outlawed.

His Hyrule has become over run with harder monsters and outlaws that it's quite difficult to travel anywhere without being threatened by any of these beings. Of course, the call of a hero is beckoning him forth to answer, drawing him away from his dear sister yet he has no choice but to answer. He's desperate to save her, maybe the princess has an answer.

I'll do something proper for them someday, planning out the scene and everything but Autumn and Maeve's wedding was at an old fairy fountain and just love the vibes of it so much TvT little sweethearts

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY @scopophobia-polaris i drew timmy 🌱🌿🍃

Well I've exhausted my ability to draw people for the next *checks watch* forever

My Link! He looks a little dead inside, because he is <33

In his defense, being a hero at his age is a bit much

Fateful Meeting

Exerpt from The Mage's Lantern (Chapter 2, The Hero) in sketched comic form. Click for better quality.

I couldn't get a good quality shot of the page 💔

Small update: I'm making a lot of progress on little worldbuilding/imaginary gameplay posts atm, as well as a Master Post for this AU! It's going well. :)

Read The Mage's Lantern on Ao3!

For a little over a decade, the Kingdom of Hyrule has been reshaped by a curse of eternal storms. A vengeful mage and his master, a sorcerer who was once an ordinary man before being driven to insanity, have laid waste to all lands within their magical border. When a young boy named Link finds his own motivations piling up, he joins a fire spirit and a runaway princess to save not only those they have lost; but perhaps those who remain.

Help

So all of these guys I got are just a bunch of LOZ "what if" AU's and Plants is: What if Link was the forest sage?

So he's the forest sage. Always lived in the forest and doesn't have a destiny telling him to leave. So he doesn't leave. He doesn't really like pondering about the outside world, and the thought of other people seeing him makes him real nervous. What's that? How would he know of the outside world if he stays in the forest anyways??

But ah! In canon even the Great Deku Tree knows about hyrule proper, and same here where Link of course knows about the outside kingdom. He even knows about the Princess and her best friend the Gerudo prince, Ganondorf.

In fact, the both of them would visit him ever since they were all kids. Many times they'd come to the forest to spend time with their little forest friend. Zelda, ever the artist, wanted to have a way where they can stay with him longer and came up with the idea of painted flower pots that hold domestic plants for him.

All over the inside of the forest temple and even outside there are tons of flower pots they've pained together. He loves all of them and takes care of all his new plant friends.

The goodbyes are bittersweet knowing they'll visit again, but always knowing Link is alone whenever they're not there. One day they hope Link can join them outside the forest. Maybe on a road trip around the country and share their world with him for once.

But for now he seems very set on staying in the forest and reassures them he's fine and can't wait for them to visit again.

If these two hit a tavern, the night would end with Deer having to drag/carry Vault back to where ever they're staying. Not because Vault is a lightweight, but because for his size, Deer is a heavyweight and Vault is ready to pass out way before he is.

didn't know that linksonas existed, just found out last night that they r a thing 🤨 still don't know if they exist but I'm definitely keeping her. she is not aware that she's a hero AT ALL🗣️ she's just after Ganondorf cuz he killed her son

this is the zelink dynamic i am not sorry

I’m designing (another) Link OC because I have too many ideas but anyways

A little context and stuff under the cut

Ok so I’m not gonna talk abt plot or anything but this Link is very morally grey and also not at all heroic at first

I’m kinda trying to evoke a feeling of desperation and a barely hidden sort of fear with him (he isn’t courageous yet hehe) so I’m using duller, warmer colors. Warm colors which I usually use for Ganon :)

also here’s my first concept of him (which I prefer to the way he looks above but oh well XD)

also, I will be changing the colors of his outfit depending on the hair color chosen lol

This design is definitely gonna change but still

I love him very much already
