A friend of mine is planning on running a Zelda/BOTW dnd campaign, set around a few years before the Second Great Calamity. I was thinking of playing a warlock, and I wasn't sure what some possible patrons could be. If you have any ideas, feel free to comment!
Ultimately, I'd say that you're DM would have to decide what they're willing to allow, but the following are just some quick ideas:
Calamity Ganon (fiend) - Being a representation of the Demon King, I would see Calamity Ganon being a good option for a fiendish patron.
Goddess (celestial) - Being the opposite side of that spectrum, the goddess could be a celestial patron. Perhaps, a bit of a stretch, since she is a goddess afterall...
Mastersword (hexblade) - Mastersword (or other powerful weapons) may grant powers to their wielders.
King Dorephan (fathomless) - As King of the Zora, Dorephan might be able to grant some water-based powers upon a potential warlock.
Dinraal/Farosh/Naydra (genie) - A bit of a stretch on this concept, but the three dragons could easily be patrons to warlocks. Viewed the genie subclass as being a good match based on the elemental aspects (e.g., Dinraal using the efreeti aspect). Would require a bigger reskinning of things, but most of the abilities would be fitting with how these elemental dragons are portrayed, even with them appearing and disappearing at times.
Again, just some quick ideas and suggestions, so they may need to be fleshed out more than what I mentioned above.
Navi could work as the familiar with any of the named ones as well. Still great fairy works as Archfey. Could also add in some ancient creature as a great old one. (I would say the great deku tree, but that is more Ocarina less BotW.

Navi or big fairy: Archfey. "Hey Listen"
Nice! I completely overlooked the great fairies. They would make great archfey patrons.
Not Navi as the familiar…
I can already hear her cursed voice
