Chio is a character in Breath of the Wild.[citation needed]
Biography
Chio can be found underneath the Great Deku Tree in the Korok Forest. He explains to Link that the mushroom on his head suddenly sprouted that day, so he had expected something to happen (referring to Link's arrival to Korok Forest).[2] After, he gives Link the Side Quest, "The Korok Trials".[3] Chio tells Link that if he can complete the trials, pulling out the Master Sword will be far easier.[4]
Chio goes on to tell Link that he designed an extra-tough trial himself, as the elder of Korok Forest.[5] He also informs him on what the trials are before he gets started.[6] According to him, it is a ceremony that every Korok must undertake, and everyone has done it including himself and Hestu.[7][8]
