In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'', '''Doc Bandam''' is the eccentric man who owns the [[Chu Jelly Juice Shop]] on [[Windfall Island]]. He supplies the [[Great Sea]] with medicine straight from [[Chu Jelly]]. He loves his work and wants people to donate Chu Jelly to him in order to research new [[potions]]. Every time [[Link]] gives him more Chu Jelly, he will give him a free sample of the new potion, either a red, green, or blue potion, depending on what type of jelly Link gives him. Even if he has already made that type of potion, he will still give Link a free sample. Doc was born on Windfall and frequently takes trips to [[Pawprint Isle]] to collect samples of Chu Jelly from the many [[ChuChu]]s that live there. Link has to bring him five Chu Jellies in order for Doc to construct a Red or Green potion, but fifteen are needed to make a Blue potion. The type of potion Doc makes depends on the color of the Chu Jelly that Link brings him.
