Nabooru is the Sage of Spirit.

Biography
Nabooru is the attractive second-in-command of the Gerudo. Like most Gerudo, she has red hair and gold eyes. Link, as a child, first meets her in the Desert Colossus; there she reveals that though she serves under Ganondorf, she wants nothing to do with his plans. She promises Link a great reward if he retrieves the Silver Gauntlets for her so she may steal the Gerudo's treasure for herself. Nabooru, however, is captured by Twinrova before she can receive the gauntlets, and subjected to the practices of brainwashing that Ganondorf has been researching. Seven years later, Link encounters her again within the Spirit Temple, but this time she is in the guise of an Iron Knuckle serving the evil witches, and he must defeat her. When Link completes the Spirit Temple, Nabooru is awakened as the Spirit Sage. Link receives the Spirit Medallion from her. It is never said what it was she intended to reward Link with if he gave her the gauntlets, however her final words in the Chamber were: "If I knew you would be such a handsome young man, I would have kept my promise back then."

In the manga, she was sent by the Twinrova sisters to make sure Sheik can take Link prisoner. She interrogated Link when he came to prison. He fought her, and in the process, cracked the gem on her forehead that served as the Twinrova sisters' means of controlling her. She then fought her comrades, eventually freeing them from the sisters' spell as well, while Link took Sheik out of harm's way. Nabooru then gave Link the Mirror Shield to defeat the Twinrova sisters. Nabooru then helped Link get into Ganon's Tower once she awakened as the Spirit Sage.

Ocarina of Time
Second-in-command of the Gerudo Tribe, Nabooru is the exalted leader and second only to Ganondorf. However, she prefers to work on her own as a 'lone wolf', and lives away from the rest of her tribe, protecting the Spirit Temple. Despite being a thief and her tough image, she is a good person. She knows that Ganondorf is evil, and refuses to follow him, and this is why she helps out Link. She is later awakened as the Sage of Spirit.
