- This article is about the people. For the goddess, see Hylia.
Hylians, also known as the Hylia, are the main race of humans in The Legend of Zelda series. Many of the major characters, including the main protagonist, fall under this category.
History
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
This is the first game to refer to Hylians by name. According to the manual, Hylians are distinguished from other humans with their long, pointed ears, which are capable of hearing the gods. They are also said to have heightened senses and the ability to use magic. The descendants of Hylians spread to various places of the world. Within the contemporary Hylian bloodline, their special characteristics began to wane and become legend.
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Two of the characters deemed worthy by the Triforce are Hylian, Link and Zelda.
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
When searching for Zelda, Ganondorf kidnaps maidens exclusively with pointed ears, knowing that she has Hylian heritage.
The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword
Predecessors of Hylians appear in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. In the game's legend, the goddess, Hylia, took her chosen people to an outcropping of earth and sent it skyward, creating Skyloft. According to Hyrule Historia, these people who share roots with Hylia later settled on the surface world, which came to be known as Hyrule. Afterwards, they were known as Hylians.
