TotK Penn: Locations, Stable Quests and Froggy Rewards
Find Penn in Tears of the Kingdom at the Lucky Clover Gazette and the stables, including his Dueling Peaks rooftop spot, and check where to claim rewards.
Who is Penn, and where do you start?
Penn is the Rito reporter working with the Lucky Clover Gazette in Tears of the Kingdom. First find him with editor Traysi at the newspaper office east of Rito Village. Their investigation sends you to stables across Hyrule to check rumors about Princess Zelda.
Where is Penn at each stage?
| Stage | Where to look | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| Joining the investigation | Lucky Clover Gazette, beside the road east of Rito Village | Accept the assignment from Traysi, then finish Penn’s partner conversation outside |
| Investigations in progress | Stables with unfinished Gazette stories | Ask Traysi for a remaining lead; there is no mandatory stable order |
| Dueling Peaks story | Horse-head ornament on the stable roof | Penn is above the building, not beside the counter |
| Gerudo Canyon story | Beside the stable’s well | Start from the well Penn is guarding |
| All stable stories finished | Washa’s Bluff in Hyrule Ridge | Penn’s later conversation is here; the final reward is back with Traysi |
The Gazette walkthrough lists all twelve stable stories and their local meeting spots. Penn leaving a completed story is expected; compare the Adventure Log before revisiting a stable that already has a completed entry.
Which quests and rewards are connected to Penn?
| Quest | How to trigger it | Reward or result |
|---|---|---|
| Potential Princess Sightings! | Accept Traysi’s assignment at the Gazette and speak to Penn | The umbrella investigation; Froggy Hood from Traysi after all stable stories |
| Princess Zelda Kidnapped?! | Meet Penn on Dueling Peaks Stable’s roof | Rupees and progress toward the Gazette milestones |
| Zelda’s Golden Horse | Speak to Penn and Harlow at Snowfield Stable | The golden horse, Royal Bridle and Royal Saddle, plus Gazette progress and payment |
| Serenade to a Great Fairy | Meet Penn and the Stable Trotters at Woodland Stable after joining the Gazette | Access to Great Fairy Tera and Gazette investigation progress |
These are selected starting points. For the investigation steps and the complete payment table, continue to the full Gazette guide.
Who gives each Froggy piece?
Penn gives Froggy Armor after four investigations and Froggy Leggings after nine. After all twelve, return to the Gazette and speak to Traysi for the Froggy Hood. The milestones count completed investigations, so the same stable does not always award the same piece.
If Penn is missing at a story you have not finished, check that you accepted the umbrella quest and completed the initial partner conversation. For the nighttime voice investigation at Highland Stable, return at night to continue its specific step.
