Mipha

Mipha is a playable character in Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity. The princess of the Zora, who possesses an incredible healing power. She was childhood friends with Link. Now she is entrusted with piloting Divine Beast Vah Ruta.

Character Information
The beloved princess of the Zora and eldest child of King Dorephan, Mipha is unique among her people for her healing ability that came to be known as Mipha’s Grace. She is also a childhood friend of Link’s, having met him when he was four and harboring feelings for him over the years. Later approached by Zelda to aid as the Zora Champion and pilot of the Divine Beast Vah Ruhta while fending off an attack during which the group save her younger brother Sidon from monsters, Mipha accepts to help Link while convincing Dorephan to let her leave by promising to come back alive.

In the original timeline, Mipha was killed by Waterblight Ganon with her spirit trapped within Vah Ruhta’s control room before Link destroyed her killer ages later and aided in Ganon’s defeat before passing on. In the new timeline created by Terrako, Mipha’s death was averted when a fully grown Sidon appeared from the future during her battle against after Waterblight Ganon with the siblings fending the monster off before Link arrives to destroy it.

Mipha is a renowned healer whose powers initially manifested in Mipha's Grace, which she bestows on Link after defeating Waterblight Ganon in the original Breath of the Wild and has the effect of completely restoring his health when he is about to fall and temporarily granting him extra health with a 24-minute cooldown. In Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, it manifests by allowing her to restore allies' health with fountains created by her Strong and Special Attacks.

Her trademark weapon is the Lightscale Trident, the strongest Zora-made spear. Link also initially used it in the original Breath of the Wild after defeating Waterblight Ganon and freeing Mipha.

Personality
Mipha is gentle but strives to be both a kind and firm older sister to her brother Sidon. She also proclaims in the original Breath of the Wild that she is someone who follows her heart even though it can make her clash with her father and cause her pain.
