Ganondorf by Heroine-of-Winds

Ganondorf, the King of Evil.
For those of you who are wondering what the thing above his head is supposed to be, it represents the Triforce of Power, which he possesses.

This was a request from @puppyunity64, I hope you like it! :) Also, I didn't trace, but I did use a reference, because I've never drawn Ganondorf before.

Great drawing!! ^w^

Hope you don't mind me asking, as seeing the Triforce made me think of these questions.

As the Goddess created the Triforce, how and why was Ganondorf of all people given a piece???

What ones do Zelda and Link have respectively???

@NyxStarbright, well, I'll do my best to explain it to you. The saying goes that if someone with a pure, good heart touches the Triforce and makes a wish upon it, the Sacred Realm and Hyrule will become a beautiful, peaceful place, and they will wield the Triforce. But if someone with an impure, dark, and evil heart touches the Triforce and wishes upon it, then the Sacred Realm will become a dark, evil, and chaotic place full of misery and hatred, and the Triforce will split into three pieces: Power, Wisdom, and Courage, and whichever of those virtues the evil individual believes most in will get the piece with that virtue. So, when/if Ganondorf entered the Sacred Realm and got to the Triforce, since he is power-hungry and wishes to control and turn Hyrule into a chaotic, evil world, he gets the Triforce of Power, since he believes in Power most. Thus, the other two pieces (usually) go to Link and Zelda, with Link getting the Triforce of Courage-I will continue this, I ran out of space

@NyxStarbright, Sorry, it wouldn't let me type anymore, I ran out of space. Anyways. *Ahem* With Link getting the Triforce of Courage and Zelda getting the Triforce of Wisdom. Although, in each game, the storyline differs, and Ganondorf doesn't always get to the Triforce first, so it really is a mystery how he would get the Triforce of Power unless he tried to obtain the Triforce, and splitting it into three pieces, and everything else happening that was described above. Very good question!
P.S., if you or anyone else needs or wants to know anything about TLoZ, feel free to ask me. I have a ton of useless info about these games! :)

And @NyxStarbright and @Wind_Waker, thank you both!! :D ^w^

Yw! ^w^

Your information is very interesting! ^w^

No, no I will not have you say otherwise! ^w^

Do you know if there is any way to get the Triforce of Power, off of Ganondorf and find some way to protect it?

NyxStarbright

03 Jan, 2023, 7:42 am

Also I meant to say ty for taking the time to answer my questions! ^w^

@NyxStarbright, As far as I know, the only obtainable piece of the Triforce is the Triforce of Courage, but I could very well be wrong, since I've only played OoT, MM, ALBW, SS, WW, TFH (not much), BOTW, and HW:DE (though that IS a spinoff). So in some of the other games, it's possible that you CAN get the Triforce of Power and the Triforce of Wisdom. :)

And you're welcome! I love talking about this series (obviously, ha), so I apologize if I go on and on about it.
@Wind_Waker and I were recently talking about ALBW, and I kind of went on about it for a while...( sorry, @Wind_Waker)!

But in Skyward Sword...Well, I don't want to give any spoilers if you haven't played it yet @NyxStarbright

I was just thinking that if the Triforce of Power could be fully taken off of Ganondorf, then Link could fully **** him and would not have to deal with him again.

I get more than a little bored with it always being him as the final boss all the time, as the amount of times Link has ****** him and he is somehow still alive???

@Snake-ro, thank you so much!

Heroine-of-Winds

03 Jan, 2023, 5:34 pm

@NyxStarbright, yeah, I know what you mean! But, in pretty much each game, it's different incarnations of Link, Zelda, and Ganondorf, so maybe that's why he's the final boss in a lot of games. If you've never played A Link Between Worlds though, I recommend it, since there's more variety I guess for the boss. :)

03 Jan, 2023, 5:49 pm

@puppyunity64, Yes, MM IS weird! It's got some really odd stuff in it...Like that dead guy dancing on a giant mushroom at one in the morning. When I saw him for the first time I was just like "Oh-kay. Not even gonna ask". It's a really good game though!

puppyunity64

03 Jan, 2023, 5:52 pm

wait dead guy!? when do you see him?

NyxStarbright

03 Jan, 2023, 5:58 pm

@puppyunity64 yes.

NyxStarbright

03 Jan, 2023, 6:03 pm

Okay, I know this makes me sound so dumb but I am ignorant of what the abbreviations mean, except MM - Majora's Mask and SS - Skyward Sword.

So sorry. 0//0

Also I don't hate the games because of what I said about them before, it just doesn't seem to move on.

Is there something that keeps them locked together like that, that I don't understand?

03 Jan, 2023, 6:25 pm

@NyxStarbright, and it does NOT make you sound ignorant! Please don't think that, because most people don't know what the abbreviations are for! It's kind of like, well, TLoZ fan lingo, I guess! And I sure didn't know what it meant until I was already a crazy fan! ^w^ :D

@NyxStarbright, Well, at the end of Skyward Sword (spoilers!)

When you defeat Demise, he makes curse for Link and Zelda, and all of Hyrule basically that his hatred and evilness will come back and reincarnate itself, and that his, Link's and Zelda's fates will be connected, each time all of them are reincarnated. So. Thanks to Demise, Hyrule is eternally cursed to suffer from his wrath.

@puppyunity64, you see the guy when it's like midnight or after, and he's near the mountain area of Termina Field, and he's dancing on those giant mushroom things...He gives you something good if you help him! (;

Wind_Waker

03 Jan, 2023, 7:47 pm

@NyxStarbright I read some comments, and in the
he very first TLoZ game you (Link) obtain the Triforce of power at the very end, though that doesn't stop Ganon from reincarnating. And often times we don't really get to see how Ganon obtains the triforce of power, like in WW and such.

@Wind_Waker, Cool, I didn't know that!
