River Man

The River Man is a character from the Legend of Zelda comics by Valiant. A resident of the Water Town of Saria, he is the husband of Cassiopia and the father of Rus. When Ganon comes to the Water Town of Saria to try to gain the trust of the locals, the River Man believes his words. When Link and Princess Zelda visit the town later, he does not trust them do to his new found loyalty for Ganon. Once Ganon tries to attack Rus, however, the River Man relizes his mistake.

In a later edition, Rus reveals to Cassiopia that Rus has been gravely wounded. Because of this, Princess Zelda brings Miff the fairy to the Water Town of Saria to save him.
