Ganondorf

Ganondorf (ガノンドロフ Ganondorofu,), known as the Great King of Evil or the Dark Lord, is the primary antagonist of the majority of games in the Legend of Zelda series. Ganondorf was born a member of the Gerudo. As the only male member to be born in a hundred years, Ganondorf is made either the King of the Gerudo or the Guardian of the Desert, depending on the game.

Gifted with powerful magic, Ganondorf often seeks the omnipotent Triforce to grant his wish of conquering the entire world. He frequently wields the Triforce of Power, and stages coups against the Royal Family of Hyrule to take the Hylian Throne by force. In the English-localized game manual of The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, his full name is stated to be Ganondorf Dragmire, and his alias before his incursion into the Sacred Realm is stated to have been Mandrag Ganon, meaning "Ganon of the Enchanted Thieves."

Ganondorf is one of the most powerful Nintendo villains of all time. He is also one of daveg502's favorite video game villains.

Legend of the Clashing Sisters[]

Ganondorf made his official first appearance in this story. He was imprisoned for crimes of treason against the Royal Family. He was to be executed until Malbella appeared before him. She presented him with one of the pieces of the Triforce, the Triforce of Power. From there, he proceeded to have his execution done only to surprise the Sages that carried it out that he was able to survive. With the Triforce of Power, much to their horror, he easily broke off the chains and severely injured them. Then he and Malbella went on to assault them. Both then dissipated to search the worthy individuals that possessed the other parts of the sacred relic. those being Link (Courage) and Zelda (Wisdom).

Within Hyrule Castle, they met up with Link, Zelda, and Glentina who was mostly abhorred on what her sister did to their masters; of course with the help of "Ganny," she wanted to achieve the Ultimate Power, in this case the True Force, to achieve her twisted desires for dominance. Ganondorf and Malbella fought off the benevolent trio and all of a sudden, their Triforce pieces reacted with Glentina. With their vows on protecting Hyrule from the Darkness, he realized that the three are connected to each other, although he became zealous that Power can easily triumph. With that, Glentina summoned the strength from the two pieces sealing some of the dark magic away. Then he and Malbella retreated.

At that point, he can only access a fraction of his abilities; however he decided to take himself and Malbella to the Forbidden Realm, outside of Hyrule. There, he was astonished on how Malbella was able to drain the monsters wicked spirits and absorb them into her own. Although, it wasn't even close to achieving the Ultimate Power. Since they were no longer in Hyrule, the Triforce of Power was still active, and with the safeguard spell Glentina used on his piece was null void, both Ganon and Malbella utilized resources from the realm and even set a base of operations there. Afterwards, Malbella used her Dark magic to disable the safeguard, however since she couldn't remove the safeguard spell, this would only disable it temporarily.

Much time has passed, and Ganondorf and Malbella eventually returned to Hyrule. There, they met with Link and Glentina outside the Castle Town and commenced another bout. After much fighting, Ganon's power began to fade, and so they retreated again. Back at the Forbidding Fortress, Malbella realized that Love was what triumphed over them, and so Malbella was devoted to invoke and absorb Hatred. He informed Malbella that the denizens are usually full of insecurity and disdain towards outsiders, like the denizens of Ordon Village who migrated from another land. From that, she intended to use their uncertainty to their advantage.

They appeared before Link, Zelda and Glentina again but Impa interfered and led the trio away. After much frustration, they found them again but the trio and Impa set up a trap for them. As they conversed, they were astonished on what Malbella found out about the Sacred Realm from a Gossip Stone, though Ganon said they're unreliable, he was still intrigued with her intel.

They shattered the barrier, but it was to the point that his powers were fading again, but not before they revealed their plan to intensify dread and hatred to the citizens. Much to their delight, this escalated to the point on losing faith in their own princess. They presumed their plan counteracting Love from the Light wielders.

The appeared again within the Ordon Village where they crashed a party thrown for Glentina by the villagers. They then revealed the the Darkness within the land intensified to the point where some of the civilians were turned into monster, however, Link, Zelda and Glentina plan to purify the land by having Glentina seek out the 4 sacred Guardian Spirits and requesting their aide.

Ganon plotted his next assault at Lake Hylia, where Lanayru dwelt, and Link and Zelda ordered Glentina to awaken it as they dealt with Ganon and Malbella. With the help of the dark witch's newly-attained Darkness, she injured Link and Zelda immensely; however she and Ganon were at a loss after he was unable to break through the safeguard encasing the Triforce of Wisdom. Glentina accomplished her goal on awakening all 4 Guardians and obtaining their strength. With the powers of all 4 spirits combined with Glentina's power, all the Darkness over the land was purged, and Glentina felt more stronger than ever as she infused the last of the Guardian's powers.

After their failure, he had Malbella to open rifts of Darkness throughout Hyrule during Link's Journey. Glentina went to different areas of the land to seal all the rifts and both Ganon and Malbella stood idly plotting their next move.

Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Deku Tree[]

Ganondorf/Agahnim was mentioned during the parody as he disguised himself as a powerful wizard and Royal Family advisor. During the Imprisonment War, he brainwashed all the Hylian soldiers, accusing Link and spreading propaganda that Zelda has been abducted and soon killed, even though he has done the work himself even to the old man at Sanctuary. Later on, when Link obtained the Master Sword again, he sent Zelda and the Sages into the Dark World/Evil Realm; to Link, he thought Zelda was killed along with them. Once he confronted both Agahnim twice then Ganondorf in one body, he, Ganondorf, and Zelda perished, leaving their corresponding Triforce pieces behind. They reunited, and Zelda II made the wish to restore Hyrule and the Sacred Realm and reverse all the death and destruction he'd caused. All was well, except Rauru didn't survive and was replaced by Mewtwo, plus Link suffered from a deep depression awaiting his suicide, though it was averted once the Deku Tree had 100 yellow ribbons around it.
