[edit] Appearances
Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.
[edit] The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
Niko is the lowest crew member on Tetra's Pirate Ship. Link meets him on his first trip to the Forsaken Fortress. He gives Link a challenge when he comes downstairs. Upon completing the challenge, Niko reluctantly gives Link the Spoils Bag. He looks to Link almost as a brother and another low swabbie of the Pirate Ship.
The second time, Link meets Niko at Windfall Island after crawling through a hole in the top of Cannon's Bomb Shop and learning the password. After telling the password to Niko, Link is given another challenge. As a reward for completing it, Niko gives Link Bombs.
[edit] The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass
Niko introduces the game as the narrator in the prologue of the game. He shows his more cowardly nature in the game at the mention of ghosts and the Ghost Ship.

[edit] Possible Ancestry
Theory warning: This section contains theoretical information based on the viewpoints or research of one or several other users. It has not been officially verified by Nintendo and its factual accuracy is disputed.
Some fans speculate that Niko could possibly be descended from the Royal Family of Hyrule. He is a close friend of Tetra, a proven descendant of Princess Zelda. He also closely resembles a man from a painting of the Royal Family, found in Hyrule Castle in The Wind Waker. Also, many of the other members of the Royal Family resemble other members of Tetra's Pirates, and both groups include seven members each. It is possible that at the time of the Great Flood, everything that the Royal Family had was destroyed. Having nowhere to go, they may have built a ship and became pirates.
