this is my version of ganondorf! he’s 34 years old, and as stated in nabooru’s introduction, he has no last name due to gerudo culture using mononyms.

born as the first male in a century, ganon was communally raised with koume and kotake taking a fixed point in his life. he was expected to be king, which was a position largely seen as nothing more than a facilitator for public policy the people set forth, and took the role with pride. 

koume and kotake, both elders in the community as well as witches, raised ganondorf to explore himself in relation to magic. ganon becomes what the two older women are as well: a cat sith, a witch that can turn into a massive black cat only 9 times before getting stuck as a cat forever. it’s used sparingly, and the only time he’s brought it out was to see if he could really do it. nabooru also had a close hand in ganon’s upbringing, but he finds it difficult to listen to her lengthy political rants– something he soon regrets when the triforce of wisdom seemingly randomly manifests onto his hand.

ganondorf, a pacifist, has no clue what to do when the hylians start closing down on the gerudo oasis. nabooru is always telling him to strike first, but koume and kotake are telling him to take no position but his own. his inaction, however, leads to travesty. the gerudo are nearly destroyed, with hylian occupation leading to a tanking economy and unprecedented violence. and when a hylian, legendary sword in hand and dressed in green, shows up accusing him of killing his family– ganon realizes little too late that he might pay with his life for his idealistic decisions.
