Marin is a resident of Mabe Village located on Koholint Island. She is a musical girl who loves singing the "Ballad of the Wind Fish". She is kind towards Taylor and longs to discover what lies beyond Koholint Island.
NOTE: This role requires singing. As such, one of the audition lines is to sing "Ballad of the Wind Fish". You do not have to sing the full song, but it is highly encouraged so I can get a feel for your vocal range.
[You witness Taylor has awakened from a deep slumber.] (Relieved) What a relief! I thought you’d never wake up! You were tossing and turning… [Taylor confuses you for someone named Zelda.] (Confused) What? Zelda? (Friendly laughter) No, my name’s Marin! You must still be feeling a little woozy. [Taylor asks if Koholint Island is close to Pittsburgh.] No…I’ve never heard of a place called Pittsburgh.
[You notice Taylor has an ocarina and invite her to play along.] Hey! That's a nice ocarina you have there! Will you accompany me as I sing?
[Sing the Ballad of the Wind Fish. Sing along with "Marin's Ballad of the Wind Fish".]
Tarin is the father of Marin. He is kind towards Taylor and is willing to help anyone in need.
[You are relieved to see Taylor awake.] Well, Taylor, ya finally snapped out of it… Name’s Tarin. Hope you’re feeling better.
[Taylor transforms you from a raccoon back into a human in the Mysterious Woods.] (Groggy) The last thing I can remember was biting into a big, juicy toadstool… (Shocked) Then, I had the darndest dream… I was a raccoon! (Confused) Yeah, sounds strange, but it sure was fun!
[Taylor notices you eating bananas.] I was hungry somethin’ fierce, so I went and got bananas at the beach… Taylor, if you want some, you should go and get some!
The Owl is Taylor's guide throughout her adventure on Koholint Island.
NOTE: While you are encouraged to hoot like a real life owl, it is not required for this role. Also, you are more than welcome to read just one line instead of all three lines for this audition.
[Taylor is just about to recover her sword when you fly down and speak.] Hoot! Hoot! So you are the lad who owns the sword. (Realizes) Now I understand why the monsters are starting to act so violently. A courageous lad has come to wake the Wind Fish. It is said that you cannot leave the island unless you wake the Wind Fish. You should now go north to the Mysterious Forest. I will wait for you there. Hoot!
[Taylor has just rescued BowWow from a terrible fate.] (Impressed) Hoot! That is a fearsome-looking animal you have there! Do not forget, the next instrument is in Goponga Swamp!
[Taylor is shocked at the mural she has just read.] Hoot! I see you have read the relief. While it does say the island is but a dream of the Wind Fish, no one is really sure. Just as you cannot know if a chest holds treasure until you open it, so you cannot tell if this is a dream until you awaken. The only one who knows for sure is the Wind Fish. Trust your feelings. Someday, you will discover the answer.
This Narrator has an eerie feeling, yet it guides Taylor to her next destination. The voice actor/voice actress who is selected will have a mysterious yet magical voice who provides Taylor with directions.
