( , later King Sidon) is a fictional character in Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda series. He first appeared as a major character in the Breath of the Wild. He reappears as a playable character in the hack-and-slash video game Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity. Sidon is the prince and eventual king of the Zora, an amphibious race, and is the younger brother of Mipha, who is one of the four Champions who help Princess Zelda and Link fight against Calamity Ganon. In Breath of the Wild, Sidon helps Link to reach Divine Beast Vah Ruta so that he gain control of its ancient power to defeat Ganon. Since his first appearance, Sidon has received an overwhelmingly positive reception from both fans and critics. Due to his muscular physique, boundless enthusiasm, and gleaming white smile, he has achieved a large fan following and has also been the subject of numerous works of fan art and memes on social media. Concept and creation Producer Eiji Aonuma and game director Hidemaro Fujibayashi have commented on the popularity of Sidon and have stated that they enjoy Sidon's enthusiasm. Fujibayashi said that during the development of Sidon's character, "he was kind of overly enthusiastic at first". He went on to explain: "We thought it was a bit too much, but as we adjusted his dialogue and improved it, we also came to love his character. So, where he ended up, it makes a lot of sense that people like him". Character design Sidon bears the typical fantastical design traits of the Zora, being a humanoid character with features that resemble a fish. He is primarily red or dark pink in colour, with a tail fin sprouting from the top of his head. Eiji Aonuma has commented on his design: "Actually, the initial colour of Prince Sidon's body was blue, but since he's meant to be Mipha's brother, he obviously wouldn't have looked like a sibling. That's why we gave him a pink-ish colour". Artist Yuko Miyakawa said in development notes that he had been asked to create the character as "a passionate, dignified and powerful character with a stronger physique than other Zora" and based his design on a hammerhead shark. As a member of the Zora race, Sidon is taller than the average Hyrulean, but he is also tall by Zora standards. Due to the slow age rate of the Zora, Sidon is a young man with an age of 135 years.
