Zora

Zoras were originally fire-breathing aquatic enemies that appeared in the earlier, two-dimensional games of the series. With the arrival of Ocarina of Time, Zoras were reintroduced as a more intelligent, anthropomorphic race of peaceful creatures with a developed culture and society. As of Oracle of Ages, official terminology has been defined to differentiate the two species; the hostile enemies are known as “river Zoras” and the kindly humanoids are called “sea Zoras.” It is generally accepted that “Zora” refers to sea Zoras, as they are the more prominent of the two species, whereas river Zoras have been given other names such as “Zora’s spawn” or “Zolas”. The Oracle games are the only two games to feature both river and sea Zoras.
