'''Malon''' is a recurring character within the ''[[Portal: The Legend of Zelda|Zelda]]'' series. She is usually portrayed as the young daughter of [[Talon]], owner of [[Lon Lon Ranch]].

=Background=

==Ocarina of Time==

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'' Malon was often seen singing [[Epona's Song]], the song her mother had composed. She was also originally the only person who could tame the horse [[Epona]] and used her to set records at Lon Lon Ranch's track. As a young girl, she met a boy named [[Link]] and nicknamed him "Grasshopper" due to his green clothes. She taught him Epona's Song and found that Epona has grown fond of him.

Over the seven years of Link's slumber and [[Ganon|Ganondorf's]] rise to power, [[Ingo]] took over Lon Lon Ranch and kicked Talon out of the ranch. Ingo forced Malon to stay by threatening to hurt the horses. Link eventually returned and overthrew Ingo by using Epona to beat him in a race. Malon thanked Link afterwards. Her father returned to the ranch, and she sang again during the celebration at Lon Lon Ranch following Ganondorf's defeat. 

==Other Games==

Malon also appeared in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons|Oracle of Seasons]]'', where she lived with Talon in a small house north of [[Holodrum|Holodrum's]] [[Horon Village]] along with a flock of cuccos. When Talon left her in charge of the cuccos, Malon grew nervous, as she had no idea how to treat cuccos. If Link presented her with a helpful [[Cuccodex]], she thanked him by giving him a [[Lon Lon Egg]].

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures|Four Swords Adventures]]'', Malon was featured in one level where the Links worked together to protect her and escort her to her home at Lon Lon Ranch. She also made a minor appearance in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap|The Minish Cap]]'', she sold [[Lon Lon Milk]] with [[Epona]] in [[Hyrule Castle Town]].

==Termina==

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'', Malon has two [[Termina|Terminan]] counterparts: sisters named [[Romani]] and [[Cremia]]. Romani is the counterpart of her child self, while Cremia is the counterpart of her adult self and runs [[Romani Ranch]].

=Trivia=

*Malon is based upon a similar character named [[Marin]] from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]''. According to the [[Hyrule Historia]], Marin and [[Tarin]]'s presences in the dream world are derived from Link's memories of Malon and Talon.
*In ''Ocarina of Time'', Malon also wears an amulet which shows [[Bowser|Bowser‘s]] face.
*''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'' has a pair of characters named [[Talo]] and [[Malo]] whose names are similar to Talon and Malon, yet aside from that there is no connection between the characters.
*She appears as a trophy in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U|Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'', using her model from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D|Ocarina of Time 3D]]''.
