Skuva

Skuva is a fictional character from the video game *The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker*. Introduced in the game’s sequel, *The Wind Waker HD* (a remastered version released in 2013), Skuva is a young, adventurous girl who plays a significant role in the story.

Skuva is known for her bravery, curiosity, and strong sense of justice, often seeking out new experiences and challenges.

The character first appears in the game’s prologue, where she is seen exploring the Great Sea aboard her father’s ship, the *Glitz*.

She frequently takes risks to protect others, including Link, and her actions contribute to the game’s narrative, particularly in uncovering the truth about her father’s past.

In addition to her role in *The Wind Waker HD*, Skuva has appeared in other *Zelda* media, including the *Hyrule Warriors* series and the *Cadence of Hyrule* mobile game. Her design and personality have made her a fan-favorite character, appreciated for her independence and dynamic presence in the *Zelda* universe.
