Ganon: Difference between revisions

Throughout the games, Ganon's intentions have not changed. Taking the Triforce of Power or earning it and spreading darkness over Hyrule, and he often kidnaps [[Zelda]] in the process. Only his appearance has changed. He is a blue pig-monster in ''The Legend of Zelda'', while in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', he is the King of the [[Gerudo]] and has the power to turn into a giant, green monster. From that point on, Ganondorf tends to refer to the villain's human or Gerudo persona, while Ganon is the abomination, beast or demon version of Ganondorf. In ''Ocarina of Time'', he is the only Gerudo male born in that current century, automatically making him their king.

Ganon appears in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]'', and is referred to as [[Calamity Ganon (Boss)|Calamity Ganon]]. Calamity Ganon is known as a primal evil that has appeared throughout the history of [[Hyrule]]. Ten thousand years before the story's events it appeared and attempted to destroy the world. To deal with this threat, the ancient [[Sheikah]] race built an army of mechanical constructs called [[Guardian (Breath of the Wild)|Guardians]] to aid the chosen [[Link (Breath of the Wild)|Hero]] and [[Zelda (Breath of the Wild)|Princess]]. These protectors were aided by four massive creatures known as the [[Divine Beast]]s (also built by the Sheikah) that were used to weaken Ganon. With this army, the Sheikah and [[Hylian]]s sealed Ganon beneath [[Hyrule Castle (Breath of the Wild)|Hyrule Castle]], where it lay dormant for a millennium. In breath of the wild it hibernates within a cocoon, it attempted to regenerate a physical form after link awoke but was forced to confront him in an incomplete state.
