Crazy Tracy[1] is a minor but outgoing character in Link's Awakening.
Biography
Crazy Tracy inhabits the Koholint Prairie in Link's Awakening. She is a young woman who has a habit of ending her sentences with exclamation marks. By paying her 28 or 42 Rupees, she gives Link a potion, which she refers to as her "secret".[2][3] The potion will bring Link back to life if he falls in battle.[4] As an extra bonus, she also fills up Link's hearts upon purchase, if he doesn't have the full amount.[5]
Crazy Tracy's house can be reached from anywhere in the overworld map by playing "Manbo's Mambo", as the song will Warp Link to Manbo's Pond in her front yard.
Other appearances

Crazy Tracy is one of the Nintendo characters appearing in the Wii game Captain Rainbow, her first appearance since her debut. In this game, her role is much more complex and she is usually just referred to as Tracy. Like other characters in Captain Rainbow, she is heavily caricatured, having overly large breasts.
Tracy resides in a mansion on Mimin Island where she can be often found sitting or her throne. She enjoys using her feminine wiles and her wish is to "enslave" all men in the world. Tracy stores various things in her cleavage, including a lot of strawberry Pocky, which she can be seen nibbling. The woman has portraits of Mario and Link (artwork from Twilight Princess) and an empty portrait frame above her throne. At night, she can be found powdering her face in front of her mirror or taking a bath behind a showercurtain.
The protagonist of Captain Rainbow, Nick, can take part in a quiz hosted by Tracy. He can also help her "enslaving" Takamaru, the protagonist of the 1986 game Nazo no Murasamejō, who does actually have problems with seeing and even just thinking of women, since he gets very easily "excited", but eventually manages to endure the look of Tracy. A portait of Takamaru will pop up between the Mario and Link portraits after Tracy has "enslaved" him. Furthermore, the Famicom Soldiers from the 1988 game Famicom Wars seem to be "fans" of Tracy, since the short guys can be occasionally seen privily "watching" Tracy in her mansion.
Trivia
