Appearances and Biography
Ocarina of Time
Ingo debuts in the Zelda series in Ocarina of Time as Talon's employee at Lon Lon Ranch. During Link's childhood, Ingo is found working hard at the ranch. Within the further seven years of Link's life, Ingo appeals to Ganondorf and is granted ownership to the ranch. He kicks Talon out of the ranch and orders Malon to do the hard work while he charges Rupees in exchange for short horse rides. Ingo will also challenge Link to a horse race but his greedy and vain personality is further revealed upon loss. However, after leaving the ranch, should Link come back (after winning Epona), Ingo's entire personality seems to have changed, being grateful for the opportunity to work under Talon.
He also plays a larger role in the Ocarina of Time manga, acting as a boss himself. He gets brainwashed by Twinrova and sets a trap for Link, but the trap fails and Link is saved by the mysterious Shiek.
Oracle of Seasons

Ingo reappeared in Oracle of Seasons as an easily agitated man who lives in Sunken City and collects vases. To complete his vase collection, Ingo wants a Goron Vase, which was always refused to him by Biggoron. Link is required to get the vase from Biggoron and trade it for Ingo's dinner to continue the Trading Sequence.[1]
Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland
Ingo also makes an appearance in Freshly-Picked Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland, and is found in Lon Lon Meadows. Other than giving Tingle a few tips, and allowing him to keep a Recipe he finds, he only serves a small role.
Trivia
- Ingo's appearance seems to be based on Luigi from the Super Mario Brothers series, whereas Talon seems to be based on Mario. This isn't too far of a step, as The Legend of Zelda series has included things such as monsters (based on Chain Chomp) taken directly out of the Mushroom Kingdom on more than one occasion.
- Link's Awakening featured a character similar in appearance known as the Cucco Keeper.
- Ingo's doppelgangers in Majora's Mask are the Gorman Brothers.
