Revision as of 15:09, 8 October 2007

In Freshly-Picked Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland, bodyguards can be hired to protect Tingle during battles and aid him with some puzzles. Most bodyguards are hired at the Bodyguard Salons scattered throughout Hyrule; the head Salona at each salon will take a commission during the hiring process, but will also ensure that all rupees are returned to Tingle if a bodyguard refuses to work for the sum offered. Only three bodyguards will appear in a salon at a time, though on the second and third continents the head Salona will offer to switch the line-up for another fee. Tingle can only hire one bodyguard at a time; hiring a new bodyguard while already under protection will replace the old one.

The bodyguards available at the salons can be divided into three categories based on their size (small, medium, and large), their personality (lazy, combative, and smart), and their location; a bodyguard cannot leave the continent he or she was hired on, though he or she will wait for Tingle to return unless he hires a new bodyguard. The combination of the first two categories leads to a total of nine character types, which are repeated from continent to continent under a different color scheme. In addition, there are three special bodyguards known as drifters; they can be hired on any continent, but do not appear in salons and are rarely encountered.

All bodyguards have three statistics based on Health, Strength, and Defense that determine their effectiveness in battle. Bodyguards battle in the same way that Tingle does; bumping into an enemy will surround them both in a cloud of dust during which the fighting takes place. If Tingle joins in, the bodyguard will fight more effectively and also provide the rare opportunity for a Tingle Chance. A drifter bodyguard can perform a special attack if Tingle is not in the same cloud as him, however. In addition, bodyguards are immune to environmental hazards such as spikes and bombs (though they will be stunned by them) and will automatically deflect projectiles directed at them. If Tingle freezes or catches on fire, they will run up to him and break him free or put him out.

Bodyguards can be healed with the various Tingly potions that Tingle can create; if a bodyguard loses all of his or her Health, he or she will lie on the ground and wait for Tingle to revive him or her with another offer of rupees (at least as many as it took to hire him or her). The bodyguard will remain until Tingle hires a new one or leaves the continent. Unlike the others, drifter bodyguards will not accept potions or renewals of their contracts and will leave immediately after losing all of their Health.

In some dungeons, bodyguards can be used to help Tingle reach secret areas and acquire Rupee Goods or other rewards. Small bodyguards can crawl into holes too large for Tingle to fit through and pull out treasure chests (these holes must sometimes be bombed open), medium bodyguards can pick the locks on doors, and large bodyguards can pick up and smash rocks blocking the path. However, no bodyguard is required to progress through a dungeon (save for Teddy Todo).

The following is a list of all bodyguards, including descriptions from the game:

Story

Teddy Todo is the first bodyguard that Tingle meets. He is first seen outside of the Hero’s Shrine, waiting for someone to open the way; once Tingle has done so he rushes ahead of him and all the way to a gate that can’t be opened with his weight alone. After Tingle catches up, the two agree to team up and weigh the switches down, though Teddy Todo insists on being hired first. They continue through the dungeon until they reach the lair of the Death Bug; Teddy Todo will fend off the giant larvae created while Tingle deals with the boss, then both can collect the leftover rupees when it is dead. When they try to leave, Teddy Todo gets stuck and demands his share of rupees as encouragement to get out.

Tingle encounters Teddy Todo a second time in the Insect Cavern, where he has been hired by the pirates to collect the treasures within. Though Teddy Todo doesn’t join Tingle immediately, they do work together to progress through the dungeon. If Tingle finds the Mini Death Bug Chrysalis, he can present it to Teddy Todo at the end of the dungeon to get his help with the next boss, the Ultra Death Bug and its later form, Gargantu-Bug. After leaving the dungeon, Teddy Todo will eat the chrysalis and become powered up. He explains his story as a drifter bodyguard to Tingle and offers his protection at a discounted price…this time.

Like other drifters, Teddy Todo will randomly appear throughout the world after a contract is made with him. He announces himself when Tingle enters the same screen as him, and will wait a short time to be hired before leaving again. If Teddy Todo is battling an enemy without Tingle, tapping the dust cloud he’s in will make him pound the ground and stun all enemies nearby.
