Chai is a character in The Minish Cap.[1][note 1]

Biography

Chai spends the entire game sitting in Mama's Cafe, where she wonders what to do about dinner and whether anyone would notice if she repeated the meal from the previous night.[3] As the game progresses, she ponders the need for dinner altogether,[4] eventually assuming that her failure to make dinner caused Vaati to transform Hyrule Castle into Dark Hyrule Castle.[5][6]

She is one of the potential characters to have a random Kinstone Fusion available.[7]

Nomenclature

Chai is a type of tea.

Notes

  1. Chai is also called Moka in The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap—The Official Nintendo Player's Guide by Nintendo Power.[2] However, as this contradicts the name given both in-game and in Encyclopedia, it is not considered Canon.
