Sheik is a protagonist from the Legend of Zelda games and debuted in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time in 1998 on the Nintendo 64. While there were plans to bring back Sheik in Zelda: Twilight Princess these were scrapped and fans still wait for Sheiks return in a mainline Zelda game.

Sheik was made a playable character in the Super Smash Bros. Series since the 2nd game of the series, SSB Melee. In April 2014, Nintendo announced that Sheik is returning in Super Smash Bros. 4 WiiU and 3DS.

It was not fully known if Sheik is a male or female and this controversy was the reason for many pages of discussions in forums already for years.

“Princess Zelda in disguise”

That’s what Queen Zelda, from Chile and a big Legend of Zelda fan like myself wrote when she submitted her take on Sheik in his classic design from Ocarina of Time for our Video game Character Database 

She draws a ton of LoZ related stuff, including NSFW fan art as well, so be prepared if you have a look at her complete gallery which I totally recommend. , She also drew Princess Zelda for our project here!
