Immortality (Type 4) for every Link

[Dust_Collector]

So pretty straight forward, each Link is a reborn incarnation (Zelda Encyclopedia page 18) of the last Link that was beating the shit out of Ganon or Vaati or whoever, so they all get type 4 immortality since they'll be reborn as another Link at some point after they die. AOL Link already has it so his justification would just be copy pasted to the other ones.

Seems simple enough, I agree

 

[SilentLyfe]

Yep. I agree. Though one thing I wonder is would Wind Waker Link get it, since his whole shtick was that he had no connection to the “legendary one”?

I dunno, maybe? it's weird. Like, TP Link is the descendant of OOT Link and even meets his lingering spirit but he's somehow also his reincarnation so having no connection might just mean basically nothing, especially since he's always grouped in with every other Link and it'd be weird for him to have all the same characteristics that they all share while being completely unrelated in any way.

Maybe he's the start of a new line of reincarnation, considering Spirit Tracks Link.

Obviously agreed

Looks legit

I'd add a limited or unconventional tag to it, since it's more like the essence of the hero and the legacy of the triforce being passed on, instead of Link's specific persona, which is different in every incarnation.

And the same applies to Zelda.

 

[Dust_Collector]

I'm down with throwing limited or unconventional to it. Doesn't apply to Zelda tho, unless I'm forgetting something her deal is just bloodline related as opposed to her spirit being reborn, all the Zelda's are purely descendants of the last one and not reincarnations like the Link's are (Only time reincarnation applies to Zelda is when Hylia reincarnated herself as the one from Skyward Sword)

Thought it was on the profiles already, I agree.
