B I O G R A P H Y The Koroks, also known as the Forest Spirits, are a race from The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Their home is the Forest Haven, and they evolved from the Kokiri species. [In Breath of the Wild, the Koroks live in Korok Forest under the Great Deku Tree at the center of the Great Hyrule Forest region. During the side quest "The Lost Pilgrimage", it is shown that young Koroks take the Korok Trial to reach the Daag Chokah Shrine located in northwest portion of the Great Hyrule Forest which is part of the Lost Woods as a rite of passage. It is also implied that some Koroks like Tasho and Oaki are related and that some of them may actually be the grandchildren of the Great Deku Tree.

B I O G R A P H Y While Koroks are not shown to be capable of fighting themselves, they can craft shields and weapons much like the Kokiri. They use forest materials such as wood and vines to create them such as the Forest Dweller's Bow, Shield, Spear, and Sword. Additionally the eponymous Boomerang was originally a throwing weapon used by the Koroks indicating that Koroks may have used these weapons in the past. Also the Boomerang is the only Korok made weapon constructed with metal though it is non-conductive and non-magnetic. It is unclear if Koroks can eat or if they can what their diet consists of..

Cattail

These invasive plants must be constantly removed to preserve swamps and bogs that border the Tangled Wood and the Scarred Wasteland. Thankfully, they are high in nutrients.

B I O G R A P H Y However at the Spore Store and General Shoppethey sell mushrooms and cooking ingredients indicating they are aware of what Hylians eat. Presumably this knowledge may have been passed down from the time they where Kokiri who presumably had a diet similar to other humanoid races such as Hylians, Humans, Gerudo, and Shiekah. Koroks are apparently really capable woodworkers and building with natural materials as their "Forest Dweller" series weapons are pretty strong despite being made wood and natural materials. Though they are rarely seen or encountered by Hylians, Koroks have had good relations with the Hylian people considering the weapons they make and how friendly they are towards Link.

Most of the background Koroks in Korok Forest are shown to flee from Link when he walks near them, while the ones aware of Link's status as a Champion and the chosen hero treat him with respect. It is also implied that they aided the Great Deku Tree in guarding the Master Sword until Link returned to reclaim it. Though the Kokiri are never mention directly in Breath of the Wild, Koroks are referred to as children of the forest (or simply "forest kids") and are depicted as playful and child-like much like the Kokiri. However there is one veiled reference to the Kokiri in the description of the Trousers of Time which are said to have been made by people who made their home in the forest.
