Template:Character Ravio is a character in A Link Between Worlds.

Biography

Ravio operates a shop inside of Link's House, where Link may rent and eventually purchase various items that are critical to reaching and completing certain dungeons.[1] Most items are available from Ravio's Shop near the beginning of the game,[2] allowing Link to proceed through the dungeons in a non-linear fashion. After Link obtains all three Pendants of Virtue, Ravio begins to sell the items that he rents out as well.[3] After Link leaves the shop following this, Ravio tells him of the Quick Equip ability.[4]

At the Game's close, he is revealed to be Link's Lorulean counterpart. Ravio is originally from Lorule. He served Princess Hilda along with Yuga until they decided to take Hyrule's Triforce. Lacking the courage to confront them himself, Ravio fled to Hyrule in search of a hero that could stop them.

Trivia

  • Satoru Iwata has noted that many fans have compared Ravio to Nabbit from the Super Mario series, but dismissed it as an unintentional coincidence.[5]
  • The fact that Ravio is dressed as a pink bunny parallels to that of when Link entered the Dark World in Template:ALTTP and became Bunny Link.
  • When Link approaches his bag in Link's house, he says there's something "more important than life itself" inside.

  3. "I have some big news for you. You may know me as the rental guy. But now I'm in the sales biz too! Great, right? Starting today, you can buy my items too--and at really good prices! If you act now, your first purchase is HALF-price. Only once per customer though... Just to give you a taste of sweet, deelicious ownership!" — Ravio (A Link Between Worlds)
  4. "I've got more big news for you. Top secret. Kind of thing only ol' Ravio knows. Want to hear it? Don't know why I'm asking. Just going to keep talking anyway. It's a little something I like to call... Quick Equip! You know, for swapping items out on the fly? Press your equipped items to use Quick Equip. Easy enough to do, even while you're running around. Of course, you can always take your sweet time thinking about each and every item you want to use. In that case, it's better to just keep using the Items button. Here endeth the lesson! So take Quick Equip for a spin sometime." — Ravio (A Link Between Worlds)
