Spoiler warning: Plot or ending details follow. Since Termina is an alternate world to Hyrule, and the goddess Hylia is only known to appear in Hyrule, its inhabitants may have never known the term Hylian. "Terminan" could apply to anyone from Termina, including other races such as Gorons, Zoras, Deku Scrubs, etc. Hylians in Majora's Mask are often called "Terminans" by fans however, this is technically incorrect. Various incarnations of Link, various Hylian Sages, and the Royal Family of Hyrule all have strong ties to various Hyrulean deities and guardian spirits, as well. Hylians are known to be a religious and spiritual people who worship Hylia, the Golden Goddesses, the Light Spirits, and other deities. Hylians are said to have pointy ears in order to hear messages from the gods. In The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Hylians are again one of the most populace races in Hyrule even after the fall of Hyrule as a kingdom during the Great Calamity, and no humans appear, despite the presence of Koroks and Rito. In the Child Timeline and Fallen Hero Timeline, it seems that the Hylians and Humans number approximately the same. In the Adult Timeline, the bloodline began to thin, and Hylians were replaced by humans as the most widespread humanoid species, becoming increasingly rare by the time of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker however, the majority of the Great Sea's inhabitants are still of Hylian descent. In the early part of Hyrule's history, Hylians were the dominant and most populous of the general humanoid races, as shown in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. While most Hylians are depicted as good, they are capable of being greedy, cowardly, or mean-spirited, though often these Hylians tend to be good people deep down and can sometimes rise above their negative traits. Additionally, various incarnations of Zelda and Rauru in Ocarina of Time are capable of telepathy, which they often use to communicate with Link. For Link and Zelda, prophetic dreams usually occur when the forces of evil are growing in strength and the Great Deku Tree explained to the Hero of Time that this is normal for people with precognitive abilities presumably warning them of powerful evil threats and disasters. Some even use this ability to work as fortune tellers with the aid of crystal balls like Fanadi and Sparrot.
Some Hylians like Link, Zelda, Sparrot, and Fanadi have prophetic abilities allowing them to see the future, have prophetic dreams, or sometimes even simply have a strong feeling something is about to occur. Like Gerudo and Humans, Hylians can utilize witchcraft and ride flying broomsticks (such as Irene and her grandmother). The Hylians have therefore given birth to many heroes through the ages, most notably the various incarnations of Link and Princess Zelda. Their heritage also gives them unique psychic and magical abilities.
Many of their villages are primitive and feature farms, windmills, and taverns. The capital of Hyrule Kingdom is a stone castle, with a town surrounding it. Hylian culture and architecture bears a strong resemblance to medieval Europe. Physically, Hylians resemble the other races of humans, and the only difference appearance-wise between them is the Hylians' long, elf-like ears that supposedly enable them to hear special messages from the goddesses, though Gerudo and Sheikah also possess pointed ears.
