Zelda

Princess Zelda (ゼルダ姫, Princess Zelda) is the titular character of 'The Legend of Zelda' series by Nintendo.

History
Unlike the majority of Nintendo characters, there are several, distinct incarnations of Princess Zelda seen throughout The Legend of Zelda series. Regardless, most share the same status as the crown princess of Hyrule, the setting for the vast majority of the series. Other hallmarks shared by the Zeldas are their possession of both inherent magical abilities and the Triforce of Wisdom, although these are not depicted universally. While earlier games depicted Princess Zelda as a damsel-in-distress, a number of modern games have depicted her as an ally, companion, and sometimes love interest to the series' protagonist, Link.

Gameplay
Zelda has a very strong defensive game, and can transform into Sheik in order to counteract her weaknesses. Because of this, she ranks in the dead-center of the tier list.
