An NPC in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom<\/strong> named Addison has become strangely popular. Players have varying opinions on the somewhat peculiar individual, who is frequently encountered along Link\u2019s journey. Some are even messing with the poor fellow by taking away his most important possession.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Link encounters a variety of NPCs during his latest adventure through Hyrule. There are many unique characters who leave a strong impression, and some even show up in several different places rather than stay in one fixed spot. Addison is one such NPC.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Addison is an NPC who continuously puts up signs for Hudson Construction, a construction company founded by President Hudson. In addition to constructing houses and other architecture, the company also supplies building materials to all corners of the disaster-stricken land of Hyrule. Addison says that he was assigned a special task by President Hudson and busily puts up signs displaying the president\u2019s visage in different locations across Hyrule. However, the signs that Addison is trying to put up are, for some reason, unstable. By using different objects to help prop up the sign, the player can receive rupees and other rewards from Addison as thanks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An odd individual who displays some rather eccentric behavior, Addison\u2019s devotion to President Hudson is nothing short of excessive. For example, when first meeting Link, Addison loses his composure and shouts, \u201cPresident Hudson! Are you OK?!\u201d when he drops his sign. He then apologizes to the sign, saying, “I’m sorry, President Hudson! I won’t let you fall over again!” Essentially, he treats the signs as if they were actually President Hudson himself. The president\u2014or rather the sign with his face\u2014is so important to Addison that he will angrily shout \u201cUnforgivable!\u201d if it is to fall. As a result, you will often find him around Hyrule, earnestly supporting the \u201cpresident\u201d to stop \u201chim\u201d from hitting the dirt.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Addison\u2019s intense personality causes players to react to him in different ways. For example, there are those who try to steal Addison\u2019s important signs away from him, but he has a strong grip and fierce determination. Whether you try to launch the sign away with a rocket, try to hit it, or try to set it on fire, Addison will continue to support the sign even as he lets out a shriek. He is so tenacious that it\u2019s almost like his feet are rooted to the ground.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, if you talk to Addison and ask him to \u201cTry letting go!\u201d he will do so without question. Players have taken advantage of this, along with a healthy dose of trial and error, to come up with devices that can send the sign flying away at extreme speeds. When the attempts are successful, Addison shouts his trademark \u201cUnforgivable!\u201d but there\u2019s no need to worry, as no matter how far you separate the sign from Addison, he will casually collect it and return to his initial position. Other users have been seen<\/a> trapping Addison inside a box or trying to use him as a shield after leading enemies to him.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
