personality;
the Hero of Time as the Hero's Shade becomes much more mature sometime after his adventures in Termina. He also seems to have developed a rather sombre attitude and speaks archaically (in a manner similar to his adoptive father, the Great Deku Tree). He is also hinted to be somewhat impatient, growing slightly frustrated whenever Link performs poorly.
When Link first encounters his ancestor however, the ghostly hero offers to teach Link his skills to save Hyrule showing that he is still good in nature. He also seems to care for Link, and called him "my child" before moving on, showing that he fully accepts Link as his descendant.
Despite having been mostly forgotten (save for a few legends of his exploits known to a select few), the Hero's Shade remains loyal to the Kingdom of Hyrule and the Royal Family of Hyrule and continues to assist the kingdom even in death by training Link into becoming a powerful swordsman.
Weapons, Abilities & weaknesses
The Hero's Shade is a powerful being, impervious to attacks, although he can be knocked down during training sessions, presumably due to his status as a spectral figure, with even the Master Sword being incapable of damaging him (which makes sense given he has a good spirit and has even once wielded the legendary blade himself as it's chosen hero). His skills as a swordsman are noteworthy, possessing great knowledge of sword techniques, which he presumably accumulated over the course of his lifetime which is greater than a normal persons' due to having travelled thru time and having experienced adulthood twice. The Hero's Shade not only has the ability to replicate himself, which he uses during training sessions involving multiple enemies, but can also launch large fireballs from the end of his sword (in a manner reminiscent to the iconic Sword Beam). The Hero's Shade also possesses other abilities such as transporting Link to the Ghostly Ether.
Like his descendant, the Hero's Shade can also transform into his own version of the Wolf form, which takes the form of an otherworldly golden wolf. In his wolf form, the Hero's Shade can howl to perform duets with Wolf Link after he howls the songs he learns from Howling Stones, many of which are songs used by the Hero of Time during his lifetime. Unlike Link, the Hero's Shade seems to be able to transform between his spectral skeletal form and Golden Wolf form at will, though it is possible he can only take on his spectral skeletal form within the Ghostly Ether. However he is able to use his Golden Wolf form in both Hyrule and the Ghostly Ether
