Gerudo: Difference between revisions

*The [[Gerudo Desert|desert]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'' is named after the [[Gerudo]]; but ironically enough, there are no Gerudo in the game. The [[Bulblin Fortress|Camps]] in the desert are populated by [[Bulblin]]s.

*According to ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia|Hyrule Historia]]'', [[Ganon]]dorf's sharp, bird-like nose is characteristic of the [[Gerudo]].{{Ref|name=Quote1}}

*When a Gerudo woman finds a suitable male - generally a Hylian - to have a baby with, the baby will also be a Gerudo. This genetic dominance has kept them alive for generations. Interestingly though, after so many millennia of breeding with Hylians, their genetics began to slowly mutate to match their forefathers'. In ''Ocarina of Time'', their eyes were yellow and their ears were round. By the time the [[Zonai]] arrived to the world and [[Rauru (Tears of the Kingdom)|Rauru]] had founded the latest Kingdom of Hyrule, their eyes has turned green and their ears were now pointed, which remained as such for the entire history of this Kingdom, all the way up to ''Breath of the Wild'' and beyond.

**The Gerudo themselves are said to prefer the theory that their atonement for Ganondorf's actions in ''Ocarina of Time'' drove them closer to the Gods, granting them pointed ears like the more pious Hylians and Sheikah.
