dont say "i think" when you make a mmorpg / plan a mmorpg then take the time to look for the infos you need for your game: he Rito (or "Bird People") are a race of bird-like humanoids in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. Their main habitat is on Dragon Roost Island, in which all known Rito reside. They have a tribal elder, with numerous followers and elaborately dressed guards. They are believed to be relatives of the Zoras of Ocarina of Time. No Rito is born with wings, and must visit the tribes' guardian, the great dragon Valoo, to receive one of his scales which enables them to grow wings. It is a coming of age ceremony of the Rito, to journey to the great Valoo to receive their scale. Children with no wings are called chicks. Rito are viewed upon by outsiders somewhat dubiously. Some have an inexplicable bigotry directed towards them, perhaps out of jealousy. Still, Rito are widely accepted as mail carriers, as only they can traverse the seas without cumbersome ships. Rito are capable of flying quickly, and full-grown members can carry humans for a short time. The Rito may be inspired by the Watarara race in one of the Zelda mangas (generally considered not to be canon). These people were more like giant birds than humans, but had a similar gaining of wings past a certain age and the same chieftain leadership structure. Rito resemble condors, and seem to have some relation with the Andean culture: males have dark skin and the main theme of the Rito Island contains some andean instruments such as zampo??a (aka pan pipes) and charango.
One Rito, Medli, tells Link that the Rito were once without wings, and it is also revealed in the game that she is a descendant of the Zora sage Laruto. Though, in the Japanese text of The Wind Waker, "descendant" is not used in the context of a direct relative, but rather Makar and Medli are descendants of the Sage Bloodline. It should also be noted that the sages seem to be able to pass down their power and responsibility as seen in the maidens of A Link to the Past. Additionally, one of the Rito postman's figurines says he is descendant of a famous post man. The postman in question bears a strong resemblance to the postman in Majora's Mask, Twilight Princess and the rabbit-obsessive runner in Ocarina of Time. Curiously, but fittingly, they would seem to have been messenger-people even before their deal with Valoo. The word Rito may be a play on "tori", the Japanese word for bird. as you can see with the rito, you're right... but think about that there are no single zora in the storyline of tww anymore ( except the ghost of the sage ) and that would be FSA, FS, TT ( or NT ) and TMC which play all in "New Hyrule" which tetra and link search for at the ending of tww it would be good to use a newly foundet "Hyrule" as a bigger landscape to have mounts such as Horses or Pigs, then it would have space for instances like the Wind Tower, further the Isles of Tetra / Navi Trackers would be ideal as PvP Battlegrounds
