Cloyne is a character in Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.[1]

Biography[]

Cloyne is a Hylian resident of Lurelin Village. He runs the All or Nothing Mini-Game. When Link first speaks to him, he beckons him close.[2] He asks if he'd like to be rich without working for it.[3] Link reacts with shock, but Cloyne assures him that what he's talking about isn't illegal.[4]

Cloyne explains that Link can put a wager on the Treasure Chests in the shop.[5] Then, he can open any Chest he picks and get all of the money inside.[6] However, Cloyne reveals that only one will allow a profit.[7] Link isn't allowed to play until he bets,[8] and Cloyne explains the more he bets, the more he could win.[9] He reasons that Link must have expenses, and getting some quick cash couldn't hurt.[10]

When asking if Link wants to play, Cloyne says the only thing he could lose is his pride and his Rupees.[11] He gives Link the option to bet 10, 50, or 100 Rupees.[12] With a 10 Rupee bet, Cloyne states it's smart to just try it out.[13] If Link chooses to bet 50 Rupees, Cloyne remarks that he's ready to make real money.[14] Should he bet 100 Rupees, Cloyne congratulates him on living on the edge, stating that he reminds him of himself.[15] After Link's bet, he sets up the Treasure Chests, telling him not to look.[16]

Once he's done setting up, Cloyne tells Link to step up and take his chances.[17] If Link tries to speak to him during the game, Cloyne reminds him to pay attention.[18]

Should Link not win the game, Cloyne is unsympathetic and says he'll win next time.[19] He asks Link if he's going to keep going or admit defeat.[20] He's understanding when Link decides to stop, respecting that he knows when to walk away.[21] If Link wins, Cloyne comments on his luck.[22][23][24]

Armes, another resident of Lurelin Village, mentions that he goes to Cloyne's shop when it's raining.[25]
