Hinox is a playable race on Hyrule Castle. As one of the nine uncommon races, a player must either be a Veteran, or acquire a Race License specifically for this race to create a Hinox character. As one of the "monster" races, beings of this race are traditionally abhorred by Hylians, may be attacked on sight, and are generally not allowed anywhere near the settlements in Northern Hyrule, nor in Ruto.

Canonically, Hinox initially appear in A Link to the Past, and have since returned in several games.

Character Creation Brief

This page or section is a stub, and should soon be expanded with more information.

A Hinox begins with a PWC of 2/1/2, having a 2 in both Power and Courage. This starting PWC can be defied by using the Exception racial perk during character creation.

A Hinox begins with two innate racial perks: Dark Worlder and Moon Pearl. The prior represents his origins in the Dark World and curses him with a weakness to Light, while the latter helps him retain his form while existing outside the Dark World. In addition to these, a Hinox character can have up to three additional racial perks of choice. In addition to the general perks available to every race, a Hinox can also choose from:

  • Bomb Bag: a powerful supply of explosive weaponry
  • Eruption: a difficult to use, but powerful technique that can create a colossal explosion
  • Eyebeam: a simple ability that lets the Hinox shoot light beams from his eyes to attack
  • Grenadier: a useful trait which makes it easier for the Hinox to acquire treasures of the Bomb field
  • Ice: an offensive spell that lets the Hinox sling an orb of ice, often used by those accustomed to frigid regions
  • Power Lift: a trait which increases the Hinox's ability to lift and carry heavy objects
  • Punch Power: a useful trait which makes it easier for the Hinox to acquire treasures of the Fist field
