Midna: Difference between revisions

|voiceactor= {{s|wikipedia|Akiko Kōmoto}}

Initially a hostile and abrasive character when she and Link meet, Midna forces Link in helping her find parts of a dark relic called the {{s|zeldawiki|Fused Shadows}}. Midna's motives and true identity are revealed later on in the game; she was the ruler of the Twilight realm (thus, she is called the "Twilight Princess"), but was overthrown, transformed and banished from her home realm by a jealous {{s|zeldawiki|Zant}}. Knowing who Link was all along, she initially used him to get revenge on Zant, but their many adventures together, including saving each other's lives multiple times, ultimately showed Midna the selfishness of her ways and her agenda changed to saving both Hyrule and the Twilight realm. While their relationship was initially professional and somewhat manipulative, moments in the game and especially in companion media imply that Midna grew a fondness towards Link, going from seeing him as a dog to a true friend worth fighting for. Her change of heart is further shown when near the end of the game, she warps Link and Zelda out to the Eldin province of {{s|zeldawiki|Hyrule Field}} to safety. Thought to have been killed in her battle with Ganon, Midna was later revived and restored to her true form. Afterwards, she bids Link and Zelda farewell and destroys the {{iw|zeldawiki|Mirror of Twilight}}, making sure Hyrule and the Twilight realm never cross over again.

In Twilight Princess, one of such abilities is changing her hair into the shape of a hand and using it to grab objects. The only instance in which this is used to physically grab enemies is during the battle against Ganon. Her hair-hand is used more extensively as a weapon in her ''{{s|zeldawiki|Hyrule Warriors}}'' appearance. These moments were the basis of her mechanics as an assist trophy.

Midna appears as an [[Assist Trophy]]. Akiko Komoto reprises her role as Midna, with her portrayals being re-purposed from ''The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.''

 

She stays in place and attacks nearby players with her hair extended into an arm form, grabbing and throwing anything she can get at. If there are no nearby enemies, Midna will teleport closer. If forced offstage, she will teleport back onstage again. As Midna's attacks are considered grabs, players cannot [[shield]] to avoid her attacks, though they can be [[dodge]]d. Getting grabbed and thrown deals 20% damage total. However, she can be attacked, and eventually defeated. Attacking her constantly can stunlock her for long enough that she disappears without retaliating.

*In {{for3ds}}, if Midna is summoned on [[Rainbow Road]] and falls off, she may get bugged and constantly attempt to teleport back onstage unsuccessfully, causing her giggling voice line to loop until she disappears.

Midna's trophy appears in both versions. In {{forwiiu}} it is part of the ''Twilight Princess'' {{h1|Trophy Box|Twilight Princess}}.

|desc-3ds-ntsc=Midna is a descendant of the Twili and comes from the Twilight World. She doesn't mind getting a bit bossy with Link, and though she offers to help him, her motives are unclear. Try to ignore her dismissive attitude—maybe she just has trouble showing her true self.

|desc-pal=A girl from the Twilight Realm who seems to look down on the world from a very high horse. She helps Link while he's a wolf, but it's clear she has some kind of ulterior motive. Still, there's more to her than meets the eye, and she and Link eventually come to understand one another.
