The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s credits have almost exclusively Japanese people in them; but one name sticks out:
By searching around, people have found this forum post from 2007:
Follow your dreams.
when will i get bitten by a vampire like i deserve
A Happy Belated Birthday Silver!!!!!!!
(Would you believe me if I told you, I had this in my drafts for a while now, only as part of a bigger post for all the ‘?’ students and decided to rework Silver’s bit as a belated Birthday Gift to him??? 😅)
So I’ve seen plenty of theories on Silver’s true identity and the most prevalent theory is that Silver is twisted from the Sword of Truth; the sword that killed Maleficent in the original ‘Sleeping Beauty’
And I’m very confident when I say that I don’t think that theory’s wrong.
I know the theory’s wrong.
Normally, I would NEVER say something as confidently as I’m saying this, so I hope that convinces you to give, what I’m about to say, a try.
So first thing’s first; if Silver’s not twisted from the Sword of Truth, what is he twisted from?
Well the biggest clue to his identity, sans icon, is the fact that he uses light magic for his Null attacks—meaning he’s not twisted from something villainous
What fueled this theory was actually another Silver theory; and that’s, that he’s twisted from Aurora herself.
The evidence provided for this speculation is the fact that he exhibits traits similar to Aurora; attracting animals, purple eyes, and a tendency to fall asleep.
But that’s also wrong.
Because while Aurora does indeed share those traits with Silver, it’s not because he’s twisted from Aurora—rather Silver is twisted from what she has.
In other words: Silver is twisted from the Three Good Fairies’ Gifts.
See:
Aurora’s purple eyes were a signifier of her literal enchanted beauty, the Gift of Beauty; Silver’s eyes are explicitly called aurora silver, both in the Magical Archives and in-game, referred to as ‘aurora’, and look purple—in fact if you look closer you’ll notice that his eyes have shades of blue and pink in them. Sound familiar?
Silver’s strange, natural affinity for animals, despite not being good at Animal Languages, is a carry over from Fauna’s Gift of Song, where Aurora’s singing would be so beautiful, animals couldn’t help but be drawn to her. Silver mentions how the animals would always come to him, when he was feeling particularly downtrodden, echoing how Aurora’s animal friends comforted her, when she was feeling lonely.
His tendency to fall asleep, which originally led to theories that he’s twisted from Maleficent’s Curse or the Spindle of the Cursed Spinning Wheel, but that’s already been disproven, by virtue of the detail of his Null Magic above. Moreover, Maleficent’s Curse was that Aurora would die; it was Merryweather that altered the curse so that Aurora would fall asleep instead. So ultimately, Silver’s sleepiness is a result of Merryweather’s Gift.
What gives this theory even further weight is the fact that very suspiciously, Silver of all Diasomnia students, has a classroom chat where he not only mentions a ‘princess from a long time ago’ who received magical gifts from Three Fairies, but name-drops all the gifts.
With his Birthday Suit Up, comes further lore, but also the eagerly anticipated pin, which looks like this:

People were quick to point out the fact that the pattern behind the sword on the pin was none other than Aurora’s Crown itself. So naturally people doubled down on the Aurora Theory.
But remember.
Aurora’s Crown was also a gift.
“This one last gift, dear child for thee, a symbol of thy royalty; a crown to wear in grace and beauty, as is thy right and royal duty.” -Flora
And it was a gift from all the Three Good Fairies.
So then, how should I explain all the sword imagery, if Silver’s not twisted from the Sword of Truth?
Well it’s simple.
The Sword Icon for Silver is an analogue.
It’s supposed to be a physical way to represent the fact that Silver’s the Three Gifts, because let’s be honest, how are you supposed to visually depict something that abstract without the design getting overly complicated?
The Sword was picked because, it too, once again, was a gift; something from Flora to Prince Philip.
The best way to summarise the fact that Silver’s the Three Gifts is by hinting at it with another, more tangible gift.
And that, my fellow TWST Fans, is my evidence on what Silver truly is.
Silver’s twisted from the Three Good Fairies’ Gifts.
How the actual HELL can you have a fukin bias when it comes to k-pop groups-
In order: Fen (19), Mors (20) and Aeron (18). They're dating each other and are also in an international gang.
Fen is the explosion expert, Mors specializes in poisons and Aeron is a computer genius.
COVID is slowly becoming a "third world" disease. While first world countries are hoarding vaccines, having doses for populations many times their size, third world countries can't get any because pharma companies want to sell to the first world countries first. Even then, first world countries will receive them first. While rich countries recover from COVID, they will forget about the pandemic while many other countries live the absolute worst moment of the pandemic without being able to vaccinate their population.

Uraeus before turning immortal, cheering up the First Guardian.
I know it's a bit confusing so I shall explain below the cut :)
Uraeus is an immortal hybrid shifter, meaning he can shift into two animals. Hybrids were new during his youth, though their chance of making it past infancy was below 1%. He was one of the rare babies, but he was ostrichsized from society because of his mixed blood. His mother was a King Cobra shifter and his father was a Boxer Jellyfish shifter.
Because he wasn't a full blood of either side, Uraeus had no control of the venom in his body. He became sick at at 12 in the midst of a march for hybrid rights. He had been bed-ridden until he was 17, when the First Guardian found him on his d3athbed.
She made him immortal using a ring, saw his potential and made him one of her four Protectors.
Since he can't take this ring off himself, Uraeus has been wandering around thousands of years after the First Guardians passing. The world knows him as the Living Fossil, as he is one of the two people who fought alongside the First Guardian.
