They are a dark toned race of mostly females with the exception of one male being born every one hundred years. That male according to legend is supposed to be their king. However Nabooru rebelled against her king in ''Ocarina of Time'', the king being Ganondorf. The Gerudo females usually are dressed in purple attire, have red hair and wield sword like weapons. They seem to not like Hylian culture at all all and the relations with Hylian men are purely for survival reasons. The Gerudos seem to think that worshipping the Golden Godesses and having gender roles is out of the ordinary.
