Amphibious
Type Defensive Trait
Fields Lizalfos, Tokay, Water, Zora
Cost 30 rupees

Due to their race, the user possesses some form of aquatic breathing apparatus within their body which can be used alongside their air-breathing lungs, allowing them to be amphibious. Normally, this apparatus is trained from birth and can be used effectively from a young age, but using it is not instinctive to the race.

Amphibious is a distinct racial perk for Zora, Tokay, and Lizalfos. A character belonging to one such race can gain it as a perk upon character creation. If a Zora, Tokay, or Lizalfos decides to forgo gaining this perk, the character can gain the treasure at a later time for a static 30 rupees. Since this is a distinct perk, other races cannot acquire it as a treasure.

Trivia

  • Other races can breathe underwater with a Zora Tunic, Mermaid Suit, or other protective gear fashioned from Silver Scales.
  • The Amphibious treasure canonically appears in the Zelda series, initially in The Legend of Zelda. While Zora can canonically breathe underwater, it has never been canonically proven that a Lizalfos or Tokay can do so as well.
