History Characters / OlimarsAlimonyVillains

* BadassInCharge: Of the demonic entities within Ganon's Forces.

* AnAxeToGrind: Wields a massive double-headed axe which he uses to slay Azura and Hans with.

* FlechetteStorm: He can summon a flurry of diamond knives to attack Link.

* KnifeNut: He can summon an endless supply of daggers in his boss fights in conjunction with his sword.

* AbsenteeActor: He has a tendency to never actually show up in-person despite being frequent allusions and plot-relevancy.
** In the first visit to the Lake region in ''Lost in Hyrule'', he's pretty much entirely absent despite the area focusing on his rule over the area. The boss fight ended up being against Ghirahim instead, though this is due to the choices of the CYOA participants.
** He becomes relevant again in the Gerudo region during ''Lost in Hyrule'', but only briefly appears over transmission on a monitor.
** Fails to appear in ''The Battle for Hyrule'' despite two separate boss fights that focus on dealing with Eggman's army.
** Despite his likeness being plastered all over Eggmanland, he doesn't make an in-person appearance until the boss fight at the end, where you ''finally'' face off against him.

** To Samus, for obvious historical reasons that reach beyond the scope of the CYOA. Within the CYOA, being captured by Ridley and reduced to a BadassInDistress couldn't have helped matters. Nearly being combined with Ridley into some sort of horrible abomination couldn't have helped matters.

* RecurringBoss: Fought practically once per world earlier on in the CYOA.

** In ''Samus Returns''party is forced to choose between what sort of hybrid monster will be created in the Space Pirates' lab: a combination of Ridley and a Varia Suit-wearing Samus, a combination of the plasm and Samus, or a combination of Ridley and the plasm; they opt to free Samus from her containment tube, thereby creating the latter.

The Demon King bearing an insatiable lust for power. Despite the deadly threat the plasm poses to the entire universe, Ganondorf wants to destroy the Great Hyrule Barrier and let the plasm come flooding in. He believes that he can corrupt the substance with Malice and bend it to his own will, allowing him a clear path to dominating all of existence.

* BloodKnight: Sort of. His motivation for joining the Resistance is that he wants to land a punch on Ganondorf.
* BoxingBattler: He's Mike Tyson, so naturally.
* DeadpanSnarker: A little bit.
* HeelFaceTurn: Goes from Ganondorf's Dueling Peaks general to a soldier in the Gerudo guard before at last joining the Resistance.
* TalkToTheFist: How he suggests Olimar deal with Larry.

* FaceHeelTurn: Downplayed, if not entirely averted. Starts off tacitly as Olimar's companion on the Distant Planet(though unbeknownst to Olimar at the time, he was controlling the Emperor Bulblax) and then later served as Falcon's racing partner in the F-Zero Grand Prix before stealing the prize vehicle.

The second-in-command of Ganon's Forces. Ghirahim craves little more than to see his master come to power and enjoy a little bloodshed along the way. He's responsible for overseeing the rest of Ganondorf's generals, ensuring that they're not plotting any sort of insubordination against his master.

* ThoseTwoGuys: If Ganondorf makes an appearance, there's about a 95% chance that Ghirahim will be present as well.
* WeHaveReserves: Has not one, not two, but THREE separate armies at his disposal.

* BFS: Wields one with a rounded edge in battle.

* {{{Invisibility}}}: Seems to make at least some use of this power in order to keep an eye on the actions of the party.

[[folder: Plasm Jeff]]

[[quoteright:174:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/download_3_88.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:174: Merely a husk of one of the plasm's countless victims.]]

A puddle of plasm posing as the introverted 13-year-old son of Dr. Andonuts.

* GarbageHideout: The group finds him hiding from the ghosts of Threed in a trashcan.
* StuffedIntoATrashCan: averted in that Jeff chose to hide in the trashcan, though the implication of this trope is there.
* TheMole: The party gladly welcomes Jeff's assistance after finding him inside a trash can, not even faintly suspecting that he's plasm before King Boo reveals him as such.
* WeaponsThatSuck: Comes equipped with the Poltersuck, a cheap Andonuts-brand knockoff of the Poltergust.

[[folder: Plasm Villagers]]

The plasm took the form of not only the various high-price houses that plagued Smashville, but the villagers that occupied them as well. They took the form of Shari, Alli, Opal, and ''the'' Villager.

* AnArmAndALeg: Alli inflicts this trope upon Falcon. She pretends to drown, calling for help out in the ocean; when Falcon swims out to save her and finds nobody around, she approaches from underwater and tears his leg off.
* CollapsingLair: What happens to the houses once the plasm's presence in Smashville is revealed.
* ShovelStrike: The Villager pulls this on Cranky in order to subdue him before kidnapping the ape.
* SlippingAMickey: Elise falls victim to this, courtesy of Shari.

! Ganon's Forces

[[foldercontrol]]

[[folder:Ganondorf]]

The Demon King bearing an insatiable lust for power. Despite the deadly threat the plasm poses to the entire universe, Ganondorf wants to destroy the Great Hyrule Barrier and let the plasm come flooding in. He believes that he can corrupt the substance with Malice and bend it to his own will, allowing him a clear path to dominating all of existence.

* AncientEvil: Given that both the events of ''Skyward Sword'' and ''Breath of the Wild'' factor into the plot, this is to be expected.
* AnimalMotifs: Pigs and Boars, representing his greed and lust for power.
* BadBoss:
** Played straight in that he seems to have little to no regard for any of his underlings. He makes it clear that they're little more than tools to expedite his rise to power; he doesn't view himself as even needing them.
** Subverted somewhat in that he allows his generals to essentially do whatever they want within their regions, so long as they aren't insubordinate. Want to make slaves of your local populace? Kill them for the fun of it? Subject them to the theatre? He doesn't particularly care so long as you keep the region under his greater control.
* DiscOneFinalBoss: He's set up to be the BigBad of Hyrule, with considerable setup to become the overarching villain of the CYOA. Instead, he's summarily defeated in the end of Hyrule's first Act thanks to the disloyalty of not only Dimentio(totally expected), but ''Ghirahim''.
* KryptoniteFactor: The Master Sword is the only thing that can truly do him in.
* RedOniBlueOni: To the much more impulsive and much less calculating Ghirahim.
* RegeneratingHealth: You can wear him down, but he's always going to recover. The only way to defeat him for good is through the use of the Master Sword.
* ThoseTwoGuys: If Ganondorf makes an appearance, there's about a 95% chance that Ghirahim will be present as well.
* WeHaveReserves: Has not one, not two, but THREE separate armies at his disposal.

[[folder:Ghirahim]]

The second-in-command of Ganon's Forces. Ghirahim craves little more than to see his master come to power and enjoy a little bloodshed along the way. He's responsible for overseeing the rest of Ganondorf's generals, ensuring that they're not plotting any sort of insubordination against his master.

! Nohr

[[folder:Garon]]

[[quoteright:189:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/download_363.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:189: How Xander couldn't see Garon's obvious villainy really speaks to his obliviousness.]]

The King of Nohr, hell-bent on taking Hoshido for his own. Sitting on the throne reveals him to be a hideous abomination.

* AnAxeToGrind: Wields a massive double-headed axe which he uses to slay Azura and Hans with.
* BlobMonster: Turns out to be this.
* HoistByHisOwnPetard: He wants to take the Hoshidan throne; sitting on it reveals his true form, which is what ultimately turns Xander against him.
* {{Jerkass}}: His reward to the party for having taken the Hoshidan capital on his behalf? A swift death. Made even worse in that in his own mind, he very well may think that he's being benevolent by killing them quickly as opposed to more drawn-out methods.
* WouldHitAGirl: Cut Azura in half with his battleaxe, in fact.
* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: Decides to kill the party after they successfully defeated the Hoshidan forces, as they no longer have any use to him.

[[folder:Iago]]

[[quoteright:207:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/download_1_390.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:207: Behold, the proto-Ghirahim.]]

The right-hand man to King Garon, as well as a nefarious schemer and skilled mage. He is the one responsible for brainwashing Charlie. He dies in the battle that takes place in the Hoshidan Capital.

* AintTooProudToBeg: Begs Olimar for mercy. Unfortunately for Iago, Olimar sees right through it.
* TheDragon: Garon's loyal-adjacent right-hand man.
* KarmicDeath: Averted in that Olimar actually kills him; or at least, he allows his Pikmin to keep hammering away until Iago perishes.
* ReligionOfEvil: He belongs to one of these, serving the dark god Anankos.
* SmugSnake: Probably the biggest example in the entire CYOA. Allies and enemies alike bear a strong distaste for him.
* UndignifiedDeath: Olimar begins monologuing into his recording device as Iago wastes away in the background, being beaten to death by Pikmin.
--> '''Iago:''' I've got to listen... to y-y-you monologue as I die?! Damn you... you're not even... good at i-i-i..."
* VillainsWantMercy: He doesn't get it.

[[folder:Hans]]

[[quoteright:191:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/download_2_510.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:191: Most character images feature full-body shots, but Hans isn't important enough to have one.]]

A Nohrian criminal responsible for countless atrocities. King Garon released him from prison due to his "rehabilitation". Dies in the battle against Garon.
