'''Tetra''' is a young [[pirate]] girl with tan skin and blonde hair. She is one of the main characters of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass]]''. Tetra is the captain of her own [[pirate ship]] and the leader of a gang of pirates who explore the [[Great Sea]] in search of treasure. Tetra is bossy, strong-willed, and strict but is compensated by her kind nature. In reality, Tetra is descended from the [[Royal Family of Hyrule|royal family]] of [[Hyrule]], making her an incarnation of [[Princess Zelda]]. However, she ends up rejecting that identity in favor of remaining Tetra.

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker]]'', Tetra is first seen in the clutches of the [[Helmaroc King]], which drops her onto [[Outset Island]]. [[Link]] finds her and starts taking her back to her pirate ship, but the bird returns and snatches his sister [[Aryll]] instead. Tetra reluctantly allows Link to join her, taking him to the [[Forsaken Fortress]], giving him a [[Pirate's Charm]] to communicate with, and catapulting him inside via a [[barrel]]. She relays him instructions up until he reaches the holding cell, where the Helmaroc King notices him, and, at the command of [[Ganondorf|his master]], throws him far away.

Tetra and her crew later rob [[Bomb-Master Cannon]]'s [[Bomb Shop]], telling him that he deserved it due to the exorbitant monopoly prices he had been charging. Tetra notices Link in the rafters, and secretly decides to give him a one-night head start on reaching [[Jabun]] to claim his [[pearl]], letting her crew party for the night on [[Windfall Island]]. Once Link obtains some of the stolen [[bomb]]s on their pirate ship, Tetra contacts him through the charm and gives him her deal. The night ends up being cursed to not end until Link collects the pearl, meaning she never actually starts on her voyage.

Tetra notices Link in the rafters, and tells him she is giving him a one-night head start on reaching [[Jabun]] to claim his [[Goddess Pearl]]. The night ends up being cursed to not end until Link does so, meaning she never actually starts on her voyage.


Once Link reaches the Forsaken Fortress's holding cell again with the [[Master Sword]], the pirates rescue the kidnapped girls, having distracted the Hemaroc King away. Tetra recognizes the Master Sword and is surprised, deciding Link may be more than he seems. Tetra wishes him good luck as the Helmaroc King flies in, after which Link defeats the bird. Link then goes to face down Ganondorf, but finds the Master Sword's power to repel evil has waned. Tetra suddenly appears to attempt to save Link, but Ganondorf grabs her, and upon noticing his [[Triforce of Power]] is resonating, realizes he has finally found the real Princess Zelda. She is confused by this, and Ganondorf assumes she is simply feigning ignorance and begins choking her. [[Valoo]] and some [[Rito]] then fly in, save the two, and destroy the rooftop shipwreck Ganondorf was using as a hideout. Link and Tetra taken to the [[Tower of the Gods]], where are then led by [[King Daphnes]] through the old [[Hyrule Castle]] into the room previously housing the Master Sword. When Tetra questions how King Daphnes can use the Pirate's Charm, he reveals he actually holds the original one, and that it is a gift passed down through the royal family. He also reveals that a treasured possession of hers is actually the [[Triforce of Wisdom]] with a piece chipped out of it; through reuniting these pieces, Tetra becomes Zelda.
Once Link reaches the Forsaken Fortress's holding cell again with the [[Master Sword]], the pirates rescue the kidnapped girls and Link defeats the Helmaroc King. Link and Tetra then go to face down Ganondorf, but find the Master Sword's power to repel evil has waned to the point that Ganondorf can hold it by the blade. [[Valoo]] and some [[Rito]] then fly in, save the two, and destroy the rooftop shipwreck Ganondorf was using as a hideout. Link and Tetra taken to the [[Tower of the Gods]], where are then led by [[King Daphnes]] through the old [[Hyrule Castle]] into the room previously housing the Master Sword.

At the end of the game after the old Hyrule has been destroyed for good, Zelda changes back into Tetra, and are picked up by her pirate ship, which has her crew, Aryll, and the sages in it. Aryll and the sages return to their homes, while Tetra, Link, and the pirates start off on a new voyage.

Line 28: Line 28:
At the beginning of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass]]'', Tetra, Link, and the pirates are after the elusive [[Ghost Ship]], said to contain a vast lode of treasure. Tetra is shown to be annoyed when her crew uses royal titles for her, saying that "Tetra" was fine before. They find the Ghost Ship in a large fog bank, and Tetra manages to board while Link slips off, washing ashore of [[Mercay Island]]. From this point until the Ghost Ship becomes able to be boarded, loading the game file will begin with a cinematic of Tetra slowly falling into a void while calling for help, eventually getting covered by lines of purple mist. During these scenes, a minor key version of [[Zelda's Lullaby]] plays. Eventually, Tetra is found on board the Ghost Ship, apparently having lost a "rough game" with the [[Cubus Sisters]], and is now petrified, her life force drained. [[Oshus]] appears and reveals that as the [[Ocean King]], he will be able to restore her if [[Bellum]], who is draining his own life force, is destroyed. During this scene, [[Linebeck]] leans on and accidentally knocks over Tetra, before sheepishly standing her back up and trying to look aloof and innocent. For the rest of the adventure, Tetra's lifeless body is stood up in the engine room of the [[SS Linebeck]].

Once Bellum is defeated in the [[Temple of the Ocean King]], Oshus uses some of his regained power to restore Tetra's life force. She reveals that she was able to see everything while petrified and thanks Link, Ciela, and Linebeck. However, Link and Tetra's heartfelt reunion is interrupted by Bellum suddenly appearing and grabbing Tetra, pulling her into a portal, taking her back to the Ghost Ship, which it merges into. Once the Ghost Ship is destroyed, they find her unconscious on he deck, but she and later Link are grabbed by Bellum, who tosses them to unconnected chunks of the shipwreck. Once Bellum is destroyed, she awakens and makes her way over to Link. The Ocean King, now restored, tells Link and Tetra they must return to "their own world" now as they depart and fog envelopes everyone.
At the end, once Bellum is defeated, Tetra is restored and the pirates find the two asleep floating on the surface of the water. They are pulled back on board and continue sailing to find new adventure.
 
After the credits, Link and Zelda awake on the intact, but now harmless Ghost Ship. Tetra's pirate ship floats up and [[Niko]] calls out to her. When he asks if there was any treasure, she gets angered, telling him she was almost frozen forever aboard it, and begins lengthily scolding him about how Link was the only one aboard who went to her rescue. [[Mako]] then asks her what she is talking about, as from their perspective they were only gone about ten minutes. Tetra rejects that, and Mako says it was probably a bad dream. Tetra then tries to explain how dangerous the Ghost Ship is, but by then, it has vanished forever. While Tetra continues arguing, Link pulls out the [[Phantom Hourglass]] and sees the SS Linebeck in the distance, revealing it was real after all.

By ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks]]'', Tetra is dead, though her legacy remains. She founded the new Hyrule the game takes place in, and a stained glass window depicts a seemingly older version of her. The [[Lokomo]] [[Anjean]] knew her, and appears to have adopted some of her mannerisms.
