[[File:Ganondorf | [[File:Ganondorf-Ocarina.png|200px|right]]As the single male Gerudo born to the Gerudo Tribe every hundred years, Ganondorf was born the king of his people. He is a power-hungry thief and sorcerer seeking to find the omnipotent Triforce and use its power to take over Hyrule. Ganondorf is willing to use any means to achieve his goals, including treachery towards the King of Hyrule and manipulation of his own people. | ||
In order to open the [[Door of Time]] and obtain the Triforce, Ganondorf seeks to obtain the three Spiritual Stones, which act as keys to the Door of Time. In order to make the holders of the stones hand them over, Ganondorf curses the [[Great Deku Tree]], infests [[Dodongo's Cavern]] with monsters, and inflicts a parasite onto [[Lord Jabu-Jabu]]. | In order to open the [[Door of Time]] and obtain the Triforce, Ganondorf seeks to obtain the three Spiritual Stones, which act as keys to the Door of Time.
