#Drewly: A festive cap

A festive cap

Festive Cap: This crimson cap is worn by the eldest of a band of redcaps that have been terrorizing the locals for longer than anyone can remember. The vile creature has its underlings sneak into homes and snatch a few children on the longest night of the year.

I'm not an artist: The first six items from Majora’s Mask you could find in the Great Spell War.

The first six items from Majora’s Mask you could find in the Great Spell War.

Ocarina of Time: Link is given the Ocarina of Time by Zelda as he is leaving Hyrule in the prologue of Majora’s Mask. She also teaches him the Song of Time, warning him to play it in times of need. Link's ability to travel in time by playing the Song of Time is the only thing that allows the entire story of Majora’s Mask to take place. Without it, Skullkid would have succeeded in their apocalyptic plan of pulling the moon down from the sky. For continuity purposes, Majora's Mask takes place in the child Link timeline after he is successful in defeating Ganondorf.

Legends tell of a vast store of ancient arcano-technology held in a hidden vault behind a sealed gate that can only be opened after the fabled Horn of Doom is blown. A thousand years of peace were shattered when foolish adventurers sounded the ancient horn without knowing it would warn all the world that the vault would soon open. After the warning, the great powers of the world quickly mobilized their vast forces to ensure they would be the first to find and secure the vault.

Bomb: Bombs only become available to Link once he obtains the bomb bag. After that, Link can blow open cracked walls, destroy weak stones, and give giant lizards heartburn as he sees fit. 

During the gala celebrating the newly unveiled Park City hazardous waste containment and neutralization center, a clockwork automaton crashes through the glass ceiling bringing the party to a standstill. The machine announces that the infamous Doc Clock has directed their minions to place bundles of dynamite all over the containment facility. If the waste stores at the plant were to be released, it would quickly wash down river and render the entirety of Park City unlivable for a generation. With the facility on the outskirts of town, no one is sure the bomb squad will make it in time.

I'm not an artist: Five items from A Link to the Past needed for a ritual

Five items from A Link to the Past needed to create soulbound armor.

Red Mail: The final major item found by Link in his quest to defeat Gannon. This armor provides improved damage reduction on top of the Blue mail. It also provides another pallet swap for Link that includes a swanky purple hat. This drawing is my rendition of the Stone Armor set from Dark Souls. 

Any armor can be used as the vessel in the soul binding ritual. The process is much less costly and difficult when the soul had a deep personal connection to the armor. Armor that a warrior fought many battles in and eventually was slain in provides the most natural connection for the displaced soul. In fact, soulbound suits of armor can spontaneously form if the restless soul’s connection to the armor is deep enough.

Stone armor is cumbersome but offers unparalleled protection. Otherwise lethal blows bounce harmlessly off this personal fortress. This armor would be more common were it not so difficult to obtain. One must venture into the forbidden gardens and capture one of the guardian golems without damaging the construct enough to deactivate it. If the golem can then be dragged outside of the forbidden garden and its animating energies, the creature’s stone skin can be harvested and worked into a fine suit of armor.

I'm not an artist: Five(ish) more items from The Legend of Zelda

Here are six more drawings inspired by items appearing in the 1984 The Legend of Zelda. I included six because the two hourglasses are effectively palette swapped.

 

Clock: These two hourglasses could be twin magical items that each bestow one important power over the flow of time.
