Calamity Ganon

Calamity Ganon is known as a primal evil that has appeared throughout Hyrule's history . Ten thousand years before the events of Breath of the Wild, he appeared to ravage the world, in an event known as the Great Calamity. As with all of the Scourges, Calamity Ganon takes extra damage from Guardian or Ancient weaponry, and Ganon's traditional weakness, the Master Sword. Within the boss room, there is a Royal Claymore, a Royal Broadsword, a Royal Shield, a bundle of 10 Bomb Arrows, and a Royal Bow, all with random attributes. Calamity Ganon is known as a primal evil that has appeared throughout the history of Hyrule. Ten thousand years before the story's events it appeared and attempted to destroy the world. To deal with this threat, the ancient Sheikah race built an army of mechanical constructs called Guardians to aid the chosen Hero and Princess. These protectors were aided by four massive creatures known as the Divine Beasts (also built by the Sheikah) that were used to weaken Ganon. With this army, the Sheikah and Hylians sealed Ganon beneath Hyrule Castle, where it lay dormant for a millennium. A century before the present day, a prophecy was made foretelling the imminent return of Calamity Ganon. Hoping to defeat Ganon in the same fashion as their ancestors, the King and the Hylian people began working to locate and excavate the Guardians and Divine Beasts. A Champion was chosen from each of Hyrule's four races to pilot the Divine Beasts. Princess Zelda also worked to awaken the power to seal Ganon that rested within her, alongside the protection afforded by her knight and the chosen hero, Link.Despite their efforts, Ganon broke free of its prison before Zelda awakened her true power. Unexpectedly, the beast was cunning, and used its power to take control of the Guardians and turn them against Hyrule and its citizens. Ganon also created four blights in his image to infect the Divine Beasts, taking control of the constructs and killing each of the Champions. With most of Central Hyrule destroyed, Link and Princess Zelda fought against the Guardians in a deserted field. While defending Link, Zelda awakened the power to seal Ganon away and defeat the Guardians. Link, however, died soon after, and was taken to the Shrine of Resurrection where he would revive after a long slumber. Until this day arrived, Zelda used her power to contain Ganon within Hyrule Castle. Ganon thinks he can be undefeated. After Link's awakening in the shrine one hundred years later, Calamity Ganon can be seen circling the top of Hyrule Castle, unable to escape. During Link's absence, Zelda's power to contain Ganon has been weakening, allowing the beast to create more of a presence as the days continue. Many characters in the nearby vicinity acknowledge Ganon's existence, often referring to Ganon as an 'it', while the Monks still refer to him as 'Ganon'. Once Link completes his journey and returns to Hyrule Castle, he encounters Ganon in a large room below the Sanctum. Ganon takes a grotesque form, appearing in a centipede-like figure, with a large head surrounded by Ganondorf's signature long flowing red hair. The beast fights with a combination of the attacks used by the blights he created long ago, and puts up a considerable fight even against the Master Sword's power.Once Link destroys this incarnation, Ganon's spirit escapes to Hyrule Field and manifests into its true form: Dark Beast Ganon. A pure embodiment of Malice and Hatred, it is a gigantic boar similar to Ganon's appearance in *Twilight Princess*. Princess Zelda reveals that Ganon has given up on reincarnation to create this form, intending to release the full force of its wrath upon the world. Now that it is free from the prison of Hyrule Castle, Ganon will do exactly that unless stopped.Granting Link with the Bow of Light, Zelda entrusted this task to Link. While riding on his horse around the Beast's massive figure, Link uses the Bow to pierce several weak points on Ganon's body. He then fires one last shot into the core of beast, which releases Zelda from her century-long imprisonment. As Ganon makes one last attempt to attack, Zelda uses the power of the Triforce to finish it off for good.While Ganon seemingly disappears after its defeat, Princess Zelda indicates that Ganon is only 'gone for now'. Though Ganon can no longer take a physical form, it is still able to return in the future.
