Society:

The Kokiri live in an altered Monarchy in which the Great Deku Tree is the leader of the race, a Single Sage represents the race as the defenders of Hyrule and occasionally somebody self-proclaims him as leader of the tribe.

Each Kokiri however has a free will and can do whatever he or she wants and also vote whenever a topic requires a vote

Creation and health:

The Kokiri were created by the Great Deku Tree and formed out of the essence of the earth just like himself. The Kokiri are completely normal humanoids and in no way related to plants. The fairy's that follow them are created each year by the Great Deku Tree during a festival.

The Kokiri body is the same as any other Hylian child except for the fact that it does not evolve further. Kokiri's body are caught in ever lasting childhood and their age varies between 8-12 years old with the majority of them been in the beginning of their puberty (11-12).

Kokiri probably do not reproduce, either because only the Deku Tree can create Kokiri or because they haven't grown far enough for such bodily functions to work. Also because they are only at the start of their puberty it is most likely that they have not yet started to have feelings for the other gender, although exceptions have been seen. It is also known that Kokiri's do not die unless killed and even then they return to the earth and their essence is reformed, thus making the race trully immortal.

It is not known what Kokiri feed on, but this is probably food they find in the forest and at it's best meat of Deku Scrubs and Deku Babas.

Kokiri do not fight that much, but they can handle shields and swords. They also use Catapuls, Saws, or just throw rocks.

Behaviour:

Kokiri are very nice and rarely behave mean to each other, some exceptions are of course possible because they are still children and therefor easily jealous and scared. Kokiri are aslo very courageous and have a strong will to defend their home, but they are very easily scared and will try to hide behind their tribal leader, sage or the Deku Tree.

Kokiri can not conversate telepathicly but they can communicate over long distances by using their magical Ocarinas. Although not many can handle these those that can are Musical Geniusses and create the most lovely tunes in all of Hyrule.

Economy:

The Kokiri is not very big or important, All Male Kokiri do chores around the village and on the occasion the female Kokiri will also do chores or do work that Male's can not do like organising a fancy party.

They also don't appear to use any form of currency, because they eat with each other and probably use a trading economy. The only exception is the shop that sells stuff that is found in the forest in exchange for rupees, but this can easily be because the shopkeeper just likes the shiny colours.

Sightings:

The first sightings of Kokiri's was mere days before the Great Cataclysm and then continued until after the victory party at Lon Lon Ranch after which they returned to the forest. Kokiri lived on untill the Great Flood in which the Deku Tree sealed off their home beneath the sea, keeping the Kokiri Forest, Lost Woods and the race along with him alive.

Above the sea a new forest had to rise to protect the land above the sea. Unable to reach the same point off perfection they had with the Kokiri, the gods created a second Great Deku Tree and he created the Koroks. They were hated because of their disgracing looks compared too the Kokiri and even the Deku Tree was depressed with the results.

The Kokiri still live on under the sea, but we are unable to sigh them again untill the sea disappears.
