History Characters / HyruleConquestGods

* UltimateEvil: During most of the story, Majora never directly intervenes in events, only appearing in visions to mock its enemies.[[AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever When it does...]]
* VillainsNeverLie: Majora always honors any deals struck with it and never directly lies to others, however, it often presents the truth in such a way as to lead other to destroy themselves via lack of communication or hubris.
** MetaphoricallyTrue

A Druthulidi driven entirely by malice and it's desire to spread it, hence the name. Malice is extremely unintelligent compared to the other Druthulidi, and it is debatable if it's even conscious. Rather than fight for dominion, it spreads like a mold passively, consuming and infecting what comes in its way. \\

* AlmightyIdiot: Malice is in a similar vein to Bellum acting out of instinct to spread as much hate and anger as possible.
* HatePlague: He is a literal manifestation of this trope, seeking only to instil it into everyone and anything.
* RedIsViolent: Has countless glowing eyes and is definitely violent.
* ItCanThink: To a degree, but it is debatable if it ''can'' think.
* TheHeartless: Is this and how he was brought back from slumber.

* EldritchAbomination

The Druthulidi are amorphous beings that are often capable of shapeshifting or possessing lesser beings, ; however, their "true forms'' share common traits in generally being chaotic masses of limbs, tentacles, wings, or death, with one large central eye. All Druthulidi are physically genderless and act as a sort of collective organism, capable of splitting themselves into many smaller beings, and if unchecked would consume all of Hyrule in their singular drive to consume and reproduce. Each of them is overwhelmingly associated with a powerful negative trait or emotion, such as hatred, fear, or endless hunger.

* AlmightyIdiot: Malice is in a similar vein Bellum acting out of instinct to spread as much hate and anger as possible; it's arguable if the Druthulidi has consciousness at all.

[[folder:Iemanis]]
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/iemanis.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:The Neverending Hive]]
A Druthulidi driven entirely by the will to survive and dominate over nature. Perhaps the third largest of its kind, Iemanis' will behave like a virus, slowly subsuming all individuality and variance until all life was but a puppet of its Hive Mind. Iemanis was brought into Hyrule by the First Sages as a weapon against one another, specifically by Demoko.\\

Like its Druthulidi kin, Iemanis endlessly split itself off into arthropod-like beings that would become known as Gohma. After the First Sages struck a deal with Majora to contain the rampaging Druthulidi, Iemanis was effortlessly killed by Majora, but its seven eyes broke off from its dying body and became the progenitors of the many one-eyed arachnid monsters that plague Hyrule, including the Gohma, Tektites, Arurodas, Magtails, and Vitreous and its spawn.

Iemanis was brought into Hyrule by the First Sages as a weapon against one another, specifically by Demoko.\\

* AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever: After he is ressurected, he is easily one of the tallest beings that ever walked on Hyrule.

* TheChessmaster: He allows Sulkaris, or to be more precise the parts of Sulkaris he had assimilated, to go on a warpath to hunt down the other First Sages, letting Hyrule believe that Sulkaris is the true threat, while he has his Gohma secretly take away the Sage Medallions, after Sulkaris kills them, in order to create a new and stronger body for himself once he had aqquired all seven. However, after Demoko realizes that, he makes sure that his disciple Liyer takes the Medallion of Time away from Iemanis' clutches.

-->''Its only wish is to control. To unify not through a bond or common ground, but through will alone. It would drown those in the world in its voice until but one voice was left, its own. Such is this demon, such is the fate it seeks.''
* EvilIsNotAToy: Twice. First, the First Sages try to use him as a weapon, but he has no interest in doing so. Second, Sulkaris assimilates herself into the Gohma as an attempt to use them as a weapon, but Sulkaris ends up corrupted by Iemanis and becomes a pawn to the Hive Mind.

* FromASingleCell: All Gohma were born from him and are bound to him, so he will live as long any single Gohma exists. After all Gohma are fused into him, every damage he takes is represented with some minor gohma coming out from his body.

The Golden Goddesses, Din, Farore, and Nayru, are the creator beings of Hyrule according to the dominant religion of the land. The Book of Mudora claims that they created Hyrule, Termina, and the Sacred Realm, and tasked seven powerful spirits - The First Sages - with maintaining its natural processes and protecting its mortal races, while guiding the three Oracles to bring knowledge and wisdom to mortals. They supposedly created the Trifroce before departing Hyrule and leaving it in the hands of the First Sages and Oracles.

* TheAgeless

Majora is a dark power far greater than that of the Druthulidi, but usually considered a Demon alongside them due to its vaguely similar appearance and historical manipulation on part of the First Sages. When the First Sages were left to their own devices, they immediately began to hate and fear one another, coveting the power of the Triforce and perverting Hyrule's natural forces twisted attempts to create their own life. With Sulkaris preventing them from stealing the Triforce, and their armies unable to defeat one another, they allowed the Druthulidi into the world as weapons against one another, which proved unable to be controlled and threatened to devour all of Hyrule.\\\

In desperation, the Sages turned toward a greater power, Majora, a being they did not understand and sold Hyrule to it in exchange for stopping the rampaging Druthulidi. Majora honored its word, limiting the Druthulidi's ability to endlessly reproduce, and the Sages united and defeated Sulkaris, exiling her to live amongst the mortals. Majora now lurks in the corrupted afterlife of Hyrule, Termina, slowly playing the self-appointed gods of Hyrule, the First Sages and surviving Druthulidi, against one another.

* TheAntiGod: The closest of being one at least.

* TheChessmaster: The entirety of Ganon's rise to power and attempt to steal the Triforce, as well as Ganondorf's invasion of Hyrule almost a century later, was orchestrated by Majora to lure out Dethl, Demise, and Vaati from hiding and expose their machinations to the world.
** The fall of the Kingdom of Ikana was directly due to manipulation by Majora.
* ColonyDrop: How Majora intends to exterminate the world.
* CombatTentacles

* {{Kaiju}}
* KingMook: Majora seems to be capable of assuming several forms, including separating itself into thousands of [[MiniMook individual entities]].

* MadGod
* MadnessMantra: "No more idols, the pedestals shall fall! No more idols, the pedestals shall fall! NO MORE IDOLS, THE PEDESTALS SHALL FALL!!!"

--->''Did you think you could escape from me? Those of Hyrule will be freed of their delusion. They will see through their self appointed idols. Your fame is rapidly unraveling. The end of mortal zealotry approahces, and it will shatter the pedestals that the people raise those like you upon. Worship will come from full knowledge and the truth of those revered... Not from blind ignorance wrapped in emotional sensation and the exploitation of nostalgia. No more idols! The pedestals shall fall! No more idols! The pedestals shall fall! No more idols! The pedestals shall fall!''

---> '''Majora:''' ''Do you really think the might of your armies can save you now? You knew there was no escape from me, even amongst the clouds. You First Sages have so little time left... All of your work undone just like that. Oh, but you think it was the people themselves who came to revere you! And indeed they did prop you on a pedestal, and worship! They will pay for their crimes, but not before your lies are known to them al!! No more idols, the pedestals shall fall! NO MORE IDOLS, THE PEDESTALS SHALL FALL!''

A Druthulidi driven entirely by the will to survive and dominate over nature. Perhaps the third largest of its kind, Iemanis' will behaved like a virus, slowly subsuming all individuality and variance until all life was but a puppet of its Hive Mind. Iemanis was brought into Hyrule by the First Sages as a weapon against one another, specifically by Demoko.\\\

Like its Druthulidi kin, Iemanis endlessly split itself off into arthropod-like beings that would become known as Gohma. After the First Sages struck a deal with Majora to contain the rampaging Druthulidi, Iemanis was effortlessly killed by Majora, but from its dying body, its seven eyes broke off and became the progenitors of the many one-eyed arachnid monsters that plague Hyrule, including the Gohma, Tektites, Arurodas, Magtails, and Vitreous and its spawn.

** NotQuiteDead: It is revealed that all Gohma are extensions of Iemanis' Will, meaning that Majora only killed his physical body. Demoko also realizes that Sulkaris has been DeadAllAlong and that her body has been used by Iemanis as an avatar to cover his tracks.

Vaati is a Druthulidi driven by nothing other than ego. If it was able to, Vaati would spread and manipulate all life until every being existed to only serve and praise its existence. Like the other Druthulidi, it was allowed into Hyrule by the First Sages with the intent of serving as a weapon against one another, but quickly proved uncontrollable and threatened to subsume all of Hyrule to its boundless ego. When Majora struck a deal with the First Sages to contain the menace, Vaati lost its ability to endlessly replicate and fled deep below the Kokiri Forest in fear. Three millenia before Ganon, Vaati was awoken by a young and ambitious exiled Minish sorcerer named Vaati, who struck a ''deal'' with the Demon in exchange for power.\\\

* TheChessmaster

* EvilSorcerer

* TheManBehindTheMan: To Zalunbar.
* ManipulativeBastard

The youngest and weakest of the Druthulidi, Demise is driven by violence and destruction, seeing creation and progress as hideous. As long as something is dying or being destroyed, Demise is sated, which, given the endless conflict plaguing Hyrule, means Demise is perhaps the easiest of the Druthulidi to deal with, possessing its own twisted honor code that eschews cunning manipulation or possession. However, this blind drive for destruction and violence generally results in it being outsmarted by its older and cleverer kin. Demises form is that of a giant worm or slug like creature covered in armored scales - it used to have two legs, but they were severed by Hylia's magic. Unlike its kin, its large eye is contained within a fanged mouth, usually not visible. Like the other Druthulidi, Demise was let into Hyrule by the First Sages in hopes of using it as a weapon against one another, but quickly proved uncontrollable and wreaked war and chaos upon Hyrule, until a desperate deal between the Sages and Majora forced into hiding in the far southwest of Ordona.\\\

Roughly three thousand years before Ganon, the infant Moblin civilization unearthed and awoke the Demon, which quickly dominated and twisted their society into a violent and bloodthirsty military culture in which the Moblins were bred into new and hideous forms as if they were dogs. Using its new toys, Demise waged war upon Hyrule, until a young Akkalan Mage named Hylia, infused with the power of the Triforce, unleashed her wrath upon Demise and its Blin servants, rendering their homeland a blasted wasteland and forcing Demise back into hiding for three millennia. It would reemerge to crown a young Moblin named Ganon as its champion, who, unknown to Demise, actually planned to end its existence by ending all war in Hyrule. Due to the intervention of Dethl and Vaati, Demise's champion was slain, and the Demon briefly aligned with its Hylian enemies to enact revenge on Dethl, before retreating to rule over the Moblins, contented by their endless tribal wars.

* ArchEnemy: Of Hylia.

* EvilMentor: To Ganon.

* NobleDemon: More due more to its own Ego than any sense of ethics, but is willing to negotiate and even acknowledge defeat to a superior foe, and refrains from manipulating or possessing mortals for the most part - practically, this is because defeating an enemy without bloodshed is counter to its entire existence.

Perhaps the most nebulous and insidious of the Druthulidi by its very nature, Dethl is driven by overwhelming fear - of 'existence.'' It hates to be perceived and defined, eroding reality around it into a chaotic nightmare, and if allowed to achieve its end goal would destroy reality itself- along with itself, to be completely unknown. Like the other Druthulidi, it was allowed into Hyrule by the First Sages as a weapon against one another, but quickly proved uncontrollable and threatened to devour all of Hyrule. Dethl eroded reality itself, resurrecting the dead as undead abominations and spreading madness and death until a deal between the First Sages and Majora forced it to flee to the darkness under what would become Kakariko. Centuries later, it was unearthed by the Sheikah constructing the Shadow Temple, who managed to seal it and exploit its nature for their dark power.\\\

Unfortunately, their use of the Shadow Temple as a center of torture and imprisonment slowly fed the sealed Demon, resurrecting the dead prisoners and forcing the Sheikah to abandon and seal the Temple. However, a Yiga Wizard named Bongo would find the Eye of Truth, an artifact connected to Dethl, and fall under its influence, being slowly driven insane with an obsession to unseal the Shadow Temple. She would ally with Ganon and inadvertently release the Demon, which possessed her into little more than a puppet until Bongo was defeated and captured. Bongo was decapitated and thrown into the Well of Kakariko, but the still very-alive Dethl would mutate her headless corpse into a new body, known as Bongo-Bongo.

* EvilSmellsBad: Emits a psychic stench recognizable to other Druthulidi.
* EyesDoNotBelongThere: Its arms are twin eye-stalks.
* FacelessEye

* HumanoidAbomination: Possesses Bongo to escape being sealed in the Shadow Temple.

** ThemeMusicPowerUp
* MeaningfulName: Dethl's name is the ancient Hylian word for 'nightmare'.

* MoralMyopia: Dethl has tormented countless and took great pleasure while doing it, but the moment she loses the advantage she will flee.

* {{Telepathy}}

The largest of the Druthulidi, Bellum is driven by endless animalistic hunger, almost lacking sapience, being little more than a giant mouth that endlessly roams the cosmos eating worlds unlucky enough to be targeted by it. Bellum, like its kin, is a single great yellow eye surrounded by a gargantuan maw and sea of tentacles ending in more yellow eyes. One world that fell victim to Bellum was a water world home to a race called the Parella, who, to save themselves, established a strange symbiotic relationship with the Demon, constructing magical portals to lead it to other worlds to devour. Over time, the Parella have assimilated other creatures from victim worlds into their armies and worship of Bellum, while others creatures have simple attached themselves to the massive Druthulidi to colonize new territory. In this sense, Bellum has spawned a strange cosmic ecosystem around itself like a whale drawing symbiotes and parasites.\\\

* AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever: Bellum is by far the biggest Druthulidi, being as large as the Hawaiian archipelago.

* CombatTentacles

* FinalBoss: Is the main instigator and final challenge of the Great Sea arc.
* GalacticConqueror: Ate countless worlds before arriving at Hyrule.

* {{Kaiju}}: Is the largest thing in Hyrule, so big it would be unable to fit on a map. Bellum likely will end up ''being'' a map.
* KingInTheMountain: Is sleeping deep under Hyrule's northern seas. If it were awoken by the Parella, it would likely devour all of Hyrule.

* LastOfTheirKind: Is the last of the Druthulidi along with Malice, having been ignored by Majora due to not being intelligent.

The First Sages, also called Elementals, are seven demigod or angel-like beings that were tasked with maintaining the natural processes of Hyrule and guiding and protecting its mortals. They were Spirits, similar to Fi or Ghirahim, who were granted power over the elemental forces of Hyrule and a physical form, but in exchange lost their invulnerability. Each was intended to maintain a specific sphere of the world of Hyrule, acting similar to organs or special cells - for example, Solahrasin, First Sage of Light, and his Silent Ones, were tasked with maintaining order in Hyrule, being a sort of antibody against chaos and evil. However, with their power they viewed themselves as the gods of Hyrule, mistrusting and loathing each other and coveting the Triforce, and soon began to plot and wage war against one another, and perverted the natural forces they were given dominion of in failed attempts to make life of their own. The sole Sage to remain true to its purpose was Sulkaris, the First Sage of Forests, who unerringly protected the Triforce from her warring kin. When their powers and armies proved unable to defeat one another, the Sages, notably Demoko, First Sage of Time, unleashed the Druthulidi into Hyrule, intending to use the self-replicating demons as weapons to win the war.\\\

However, the Druthulidi quickly proved unable to be controlled, rampaging across Hyrule and waging war on the Sages and each other. Unable to stop the eminent destruction of Hyrule, the Sages turned toward a greater, darker power in desperation - Majora, and sold out Hyrule to it in exchange for cutting off the Druthulidi's ability to endlessly split themselves. The Druthulidi were driven into hiding, and the other six Sages briefly worked together to overthrow Sulkaris and seize the Triforce. However, fearing the truth that they were not impervious might be learned by mortals, they exiled Sulkaris rather than kill her, and subsequently went their own way, villifying Sulkaris as a traitor to the Goddesses and painting themselves as angelic guardians of Hyrule's mortals. In truth, they each ruled over their sphere of elements and mortals as petty gods, increasingly coming to fear and despise one another. Sulkaris, meanwhile, would discover the Gohma born from the dead Druthulidi Iemanis, and inadvertently imprint herself into the Will of the Gohma, gaining true immortality and beginning to seek her vengeance on her kin and their worshipers.

* AdaptationalVillainy: All of them, except Sulkaris and maybe Evaleen, are far more evil than their counterparts of the first games made by UndyingNephalim.

** They made a pact with Majora and Demoko states that they practically sold the world to the Goddess Mocker.
** They banished and vilified Sulkaris and she attempts to use the Gohma to get her revenge. This backfires and Sulkaris becomes a pawn to the Gohma Hive Mind and goes on a rampage to consume all of Hyrule.

* AdaptationalVillainy: In the first games made by UndyingNephalim there are no mentions about Maphaeus being evil.

* BareYourMidriff: Appears as a completely nude woman made of magma and flame.

* PlayingWithFire

Malkorbagia, First Sage of Water, was created to manage the hydrologic processes of Hyrule - its oceans, rivers, and rains. Associated with knowledge, morality, and grace, she was in truth a prudish and manipulative tyrant that hoarded and controlled the histories of Hyrule while doling out the craved waters she controlled to her servants such as the zora in exchange for worship.

* AdaptationalVillainy: In 'Fallen Sage' she was a gracious and benevolent Sage that aided the heroes. in 'Hyrule Conquest', she is a haughty one that, like her siblings, plotted to take over the Triforce and was responsible for bringing several demons into Hyrule.
* AngelicBeauty: Malkorbagia is described as 'formed from the water then young and new of the world, she is of the form of grace, clothed in material, and her vessel hidden from mortal eyes'.

* AdaptationalVillainy: Downplayed. In 'Fallen Sage', while Evaleen was still a villain, some of her quotes imply that she may have been a WellIntentionedExtremist or possibly a pawn of Majora. In 'Hyrule Conquest', Evaleen doesn't show even the slightest bit of goodness, either genuine or warped, and was as much of a {{Jerkass}} as her siblings.

* CastingAShadow

* ProfessionalKiller: Like the other Sages, Evaleen's actions were utterly remorseless, the the point she failed her job and started bringing things *back* from death.

* OurSpiritsAreDifferent

* AnthropomorphicPersonification: Each of the Druthulidi believed to embody each of the rungs that makes up the Lidi'athas; Ego-Vaati, Control-Iemanis, Wrath-Demise, Hunger-Bellum, Fear-Dethl, and Malice-Malice.

* MadnessMantra: "No more idols, the pedestals shall fall!"

The unfortunate Minish was quickly subsumed under the crushing ego of the Durthulidi, which adopted Vaati's personality and name as its own and subsequently toppled the civization of the Forest Minish. The wandering sorcerer then traveled west to the Gerudo Desert, meeting the founding heroes of the Darknut Legion, whom waged a bloody civil war to unify their wartorn people. With Vaati's aid, the Darknuts Zalunbar, Senturon, Yaraxonal, and Baral brought their people under the banner of the Legion, but soon betrayed one another under Vaati's manipulation. Together with Vaati, Zalunbar and Senturon assassinated Baral and betrayed Yaraxonal, sealing her in stone and stealing her Sage immortality, while Vaati hijacked her power over the winds.

* EvilerThanThou: Demise considers Dethl a coward for utilizing DemonicPossession; Dethl looks down on Demise for this [[HonorBeforeReason exact reason]].

* AdaptationalWimp: In canon, Demise is the primal GodOfEvil and the sigle most powerful entity to appear on screen, only matched by his own second coming [[OneWingedAngel Ganon]]. Here, he is a joke compared to the other Druthulidi and a speck of dust compared to Majora.

* DemonicPossession: Defied: Like all Druthulidi, Demise has the ability to possess mortals but refuses to do so, openly claiming that it is a cowardly act.

* EvenEvilHasStandards: Unlike most other Druthulidi, does not lie and manipulate, keeing its end of bargains. Considers possession a cowardly act and openly disdains its kin for fleeing from a fight.

* NobleDemon: More due more to its own Ego than any sense of ethics, but is willing to negotiate and even acknowledge defeat to a superior foe, and refrains from maniulating or posessing mortals for the most part - practically, this is because defeating an enemy without bloodshed is counter to its entire existence.

Sulkaris, meanwhile, would discover the Gohma born from the dead Druthulidi Iemanis, and inadvertently imprint herself into the Will of the Gohma, gaining true immortality and beginning to seek her vengeance on her kin and their worshipers.

** They banished and villified Sulkaris and she attempts to use the Gohma to get her revenge. This backfires and Sulkaris becomes a pawn to the Gohma Hive Mind and goes on a rampage to consume all of Hyrule.

** Demoko implies to Majora that the reason why he and his siblings, except Sulkaris, revolted was because the Goddesses forced upon them their duties. Though this is not justification for their contempt of mortals.

* HateSink: All First Sages, except [[EnsembleDarkHorse Sulkaris]] and maybe [[DeathEqualsRedemption Demoko]]. For all their long age and powers, the First Sages are pretty much like spoiled chidlren that get lots of powers and want to use it and yet at the same time don't want the responsibilities that come with these powers. They only care about themselves, seeing mortals, who they were supposed to protect, as mere ants and have betrayed both their creators and siblings to place themselves as gods.
* HistoricalHeroUpgrade: According the the dominant religious and historical narratives of Hyrule, the Sages are pious and noble demigods who upphold the laws of the Goddesses. In truth, they are petty and callous demigods responsible for almost all the evils in Hyrule.

* RetiredBadass: Almost all the First Sages retain an hands-off involvement in Hyrule, preferring to regulate their duties to created servant races or mortal proxies.
* SingleSpecimenSpecies: Subverted. Desite being the same race, the First Sages physically differ in physiology and appearance, however, their true forms are that of Spirits similar to the Sages from Videogame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess.

* LogicalWeakness: She laughs when she believes that Sulkaris would attempt to kill her with a sword. Sulkaris brings her Armogohma that basically boil Malkobagia alive until she evaporates.

* AdaptationalWimp: In 'Fallen Sage', Evaleen was capable of using her own magic to ressurect herself many times. In this, Evaleen is permanently killed by a blast from the Aura.

* DroppedABridgeOnHim: Killed by Demoko's Aura without even delievering a single sentence.

* OneManArmy: As a walking avatar of Death, can kill with a touch and bring disease and famine upon enemies. Displayed during the battle between First Sages, when, where others fight with weaons and armies, she simply walks by Gohma and disintegrates them.

* DroppedABridgeOnHim: Killed by Demoko's Aura without even delievering a single sentence.

* AGodIAm: Is worshiped out of fear by the Parella and River Zora, in the sense that they continuously lead it to food lest they be eaten themselves.

* AdaptationalWimp: In canon, Demise is the primal GodOfEvil and the sigle most powerful entity to appear on screen, only matched by his own second coming [[OneWingedAngel Ganondorf]]. Here, he is a joke compared to the other Druthulidi and a speck of dust compared to Majora.

* AdaptationalWimp: In canon, Demise is the primal GodOfEvil and the sigle most powerful entity to appear on screen, only matched by [[BigBad Ganondorf]]'s OneWingedAngel for Ganon, his own second coming. Here, God-like EldritchAbomination he may be but he is the laughing stock of the Druthulidi and a speck of dust compared to Majora.

[[folder: Druthulidi]]
Druthulidi, also collectively called Demons, is a name devised by the Akkalans for a race of powerful and destructive eldritch god-like beings from the cosmos.

!!Majora
Majora is a dark power far greater than that of the Druthulidi, but usually considered a Demon alongside them due to its vaguely similar appearance and historical manipulation on part of the First Sages. When the First Sages were left to their own devices, they immediately began to hate and fear one another, coveting the power of the Triforce and perverting Hyrule's natural forces twisted attempts to create their own life. With Sulkaris preventing them from stealing the Triforce, and their armies unable to defeat one another, they allowed the Druthulidi into the world as weapons against one another, which proved unable to be controlled and threatened to devour all of Hyrule. In desperation, the Sages turned toward a greater power, Majora, a being they did not understand and sold Hyrule to it in exchange for stopping the rampaging Druthulidi. Majora honored its word, limiting the Druthulidi's ability to endlessly reproduce, and the Sages united and defeated Sulkaris, exiling her to live amongst the mortals. Majora now lurks in the corrupted afterlife of Hyrule, Termina, slowly playing the self-appointed gods of Hyrule, the First Sages and surviving Druthulidi, against one another.

--->''Do you really think the might of your armies can save you now? You knew there was no escape from me, even amongst the clouds. You First Sages have so little time left... All of your work undone just like that. Oh, but you think it was the people themselves who came to revere you! And indeed they did prop you on a pedestal, and worship! They will pay for their crimes, but not before your lies are known to them al!! No more idols, the pedestals shall fall! NO MORE IDOLS, THE PEDESTALS SHALL FALL!''

!!Iemanis
A Druthulidi driven entirely by the will to survive and dominate over nature. Perhaps the third largest of its kind, Iemanis' will behaved like a virus, slowly subsuming all individuality and variance until all life was but a puppet of its Hive Mind. Iemanis was brought into Hyrule by the First Sages as a weapon against one another, specifically by Demoko. Like its Druthulidi kin, Iemanis endlessly split itself off into arthropod-like beings that would become known as Gohma. After the First Sages struck a deal with Majora to contain the rampaging Druthulidi, Iemanis was effortlessly killed by Majora, but from its dying body, its seven eyes broke off and became the progenitors of the many one-eyed arachnid monsters that plague Hyrule, including the Gohma, Tektites, Arurodas, Magtails, and Vitreous and its spawn.

!!Vaati
Vaati is a Druthulidi driven by nothing other than ego. If it was able to, Vaati would spread and manipulate all life until every being existed to only serve and praise its existence. Like the other Druthulidi, it was allowed into Hyrule by the First Sages with the intent of serving as a weapon against one another, but quickly proved uncontrollable and threatened to subsume all of Hyrule to its boundless ego. When Majora struck a deal with the First Sages to contain the menace, Vaati lost its ability to endlessly replicate and fled deep below the Kokiri Forest in fear. Three millenia before Ganon, Vaati was awoken by a young and ambitious exiled Minish sorcerer named Vaati, who struck a ''deal'' with the Demon in exchange for power. The unfortunate Minish was quickly subsumed under the crushing ego of the Durthulidi, which adopted Vaati's personality and name as its own and subsequently toppled the civization of the Forest Minish. The wandering sorcerer then travelled west to the Gerudo Desert, meeting the founding heroes of the Darknut Legion, whom waged a bloody civil war to unify their wartorn people. With Vaati's aid, the Darknuts Zalunbar, Senturon, Yaraxonal, and Baral brought their people under the banner of the Legion, but soon betrayed one another under Vaati's manipulation. Together with Vaati, Zalunbar and Senturon assassinated Baral and betrayed Yaraxonal, sealing her in stone and stealing her Sage immortality, while Vaati hijacked her power over the winds.

!!Demise
The youngest and weakest of the Druthulidi, Demise is driven by violence and destruction, seeing creation and progress as hideous. As long as something is dying or being destroyed, Demise is sated, which, given the endless conflict plaguing Hyrule, means Demise is perhaps the easiest of the Druthulidi to deal with, possessing its own twisted honor code that eschews cunning manipulation or possession. However, this blind drive for destruction and violence generally results in it being outsmarted by its older and cleverer kin. Demises form is that of a giant worm or slug like creature covered in armored scales - it used to have two legs, but they were severed by Hylia's magic. Unlike its kin, its large eye is contained within a fanged mouth, usually not visible. Like the other Druthulidi, Demise was let into Hyrule by the First Sages in hopes of using it as a weapon against one another, but quickly proved uncontrollable and wreaked war and chaos upon Hyrule, until a desperate deal between the Sages and Majora forced into hiding in the far southwest of Ordona. Roughly three thousand years before Ganon, the infant Moblin civilization unearthed and awoke the Demon, which quickly dominated and twisted their society into a violent and bloodthirsty military culture in which the Moblins were bred into new and hideous forms as if they were dogs. Using its new toys, Demise waged war upon Hyrule, until a young Akkalan Mage named Hylia, infused with the power of the Triforce, unleashed her wrath upon Demise and its Blin servants, rendering their homeland a blasted wasteland and forcing Demise back into hiding for three millennia. It would reemerge to crown a young Moblin named Ganon as its champion, who, unknown to Demise, actually planned to end its existence by ending all war in Hyrule. Due to the intervention of Dethl and Vaati, Demise's champion was slain, and the Demon briefly aligned with its Hylian enemies to enact revenge on Dethl, before retreating to rule over the Moblins, contented by their endless tribal wars.

* YourApprovalFillsMeWithShame: By acknowledging Hylia as being batter at its job than itself, it causes her be crushed by the realization of her evils and seek to amend her actions.

!!Dethl/Bongo-Bongo
Perhaps the most nebulous and insidious of the Druthulidi by its very nature, Dethl is driven by overwhelming fear - of 'existence.'' It hates to be perceived and defined, eroding reality around it into a chaotic nightmare, and if allowed to achieve its endgoal would destroy reality itself- along with itself, to be completely unknown. Like the other Druthulidi, it was allowed into Hyrule by the First Sages as a weapon against one another, but quickly proved uncontrollable and threatened to devour all of Hyrule. Dethl eroded reality itself, resurrecting the dead as undead abominations and spreading madness and death until a deal between the First Sages and Majora forced it to flee to the darkness under what would become Kakariko. Centuries later, it was unearthed by the Sheikah constructing the Shadow Temple, who managed to seal it and exploit its nature for their dark power. Their use of the Shadow Temple as a center of torture and imprisonment slowly fed the sealed Demon, resurrecting the dead prisoners and forcing the Sheikah to abandon and seal the Temple. However, a Yiga Wizard named Bongo would find the Eye of Truth, an artifact connected to Dethl, and fall under its influence, beign slowly driven insane with an obsession to unseal the Shadow Temple. She would ally with Ganon and inadvertently release the Demon, which possessed her into little more than a puppet until Bongo was defeated and captured. Bongo was decapitated and thrown into the Well of Kakariko, but the still very-alive Dethl would mutate her headless corpse into a new body, known as Bongo-Bongo.

!!Bellum
The largest of the Druthulidi, Bellum is driven by endless animalistic hunger, almost lacking sapience, being little more than a giant mouth that endlessly roams the cosmos eating worlds unlucky enough to be targeted by it. Bellum, like its kin, is a single great yellow eye surrounded by a gargantuan maw and sea of tentacles ending in more yellow eyes. One world that fell victim to Bellum was a water world home to a race called the Parella, who, to save themselves, established a strange symbiotic relationship with the Demon, constructing magical portals to lead it to other worlds to devour. Over time, the Parella have assimilated other creatures from victim worlds into their armies and worship of Bellum, while others creatures have simple attached themselves to the massive Druthulidi to colonize new territory. In this sense, Bellum has sawned a strange cosmic ecosystem around itself like a whale drawing symbiotes and parasites. Like the other Druthulidi, it was let into Hyrule by the First Sages, who planned to use it as a weapon against one another. In its insatiable hunger it proved uncontrollable, and if not stopped would have eaten everything and everyone. Thanks to a desperate deal between the First Sages and Majora, Bellum was forced into hiding in the polar depths of the northern Great Sea, slumbering in the deep. Since ancient times the Parella have sought to awaken their god, bringing numerous races such as the Zora to Hyrule to aid them, and fostering a great war that brought down the Empires of the Great Sea.

[[folder:First Sages]]
The First Sages, also called Elementals, are seven demigod or angel-like beings that were tasked with maintaining the natural processes of Hyrule and guiding and protecting its mortals. They were Spirits, similar to Fi or Ghirahim, who were granted power over the elemental forces of Hyrule and a physical form, but in exchange lost their invulnerability. Each was intended to maintain a specific sphere of the world of Hyrule, acting similar to organs or special cells - for example, Solahrasin, First Sage of Light, and his Silent Ones, were tasked with maintaining order in Hyrule, being a sort of antibody against chaos and evil. However, with their power they viewed themselves as the gods of Hyrule, mistrusting and loathing each other and coveting the Triforce, and soon began to plot and wage war against on another, and perverted the natural forces they were given dominion of in failed attempts to make life of their own. The sole Sage to remain true to its purpose was Sulkaris, the First Sage of Forests, who unerringly protected the Triforce from her warring kin. When their powers and armies proved unable to defeat one another, the Sages, notably Demoko, First Sage of Time, unleashed the Druthulidi into Hyrule, intending to use the self-relicating demons as weapons to win the war. However, the Druthulidi quickly proved unable to be controlled, rampaging across Hyrule and waging war on the Sages and each other. Unable to stop the eminent destruction of Hyrule, the Sages turned toward a greater, darker power in desperation - Majora, and sold out Hyrule to it in exchange for cutting off the Durthulidi's ability to endlessly split themselves. The Druthulidi were driven into hiding, and the other six Sages briefly worked together to overthrow Sulkaris and seize the Triforce. However, fearing the truth that they were not impervious might be learned by mortals, they exiled Sulkaris rather than kill her, and subsequently went their own way, villifying Sulkaris as a traitor to the Goddesses and painting themselves as angelic guardians of Hyrule's mortals. In truth, they each ruled over their sphere of elements and mortals as petty gods, increasingly coming to fear and despise one another. Sulkaris, meanwhile, would discover the Gohma born from the dead Druthulidi Iemanis, and inadvertently imprint herself into the Will of the Gohma, gaining true immortality and beginning to seek her vengeance on her kin and their worshipers.

[[/folder]]

* TheChessmaster: He allows Sulkaris, or to be more precise the parts of Sulkaris he had assimilated, to go on a warpath to hunt down the other First Sages, letting Hyrule believe that Sulkaris is the true treat, while he has his Gohma secretly take away the Sage Medallions, after Sulkaris kills them, in order to create a new and stronger body for himself once he had aqquired all seven. However, after Demoko realizes that, he makes sure that his disciple Liyer takes the Medallion of Time away from Iemanis' clutches.

* FusionDance: After Sulkaris has been defeated, Iemanis uses the Forest Medallion to merge all Gohma, both dead and alive, on Misery Mire to create a new body for himself.

* HopelessBossFight: Despite the Hylian Alliance's success in routing Sulkaris and the Gohma, the sudden appearance of a [[AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever fifty-foot]] EldritchAbomination to cap off the final battle is something they just can't handle. Until Zelda submits to Hylia, all they can do is run.

* UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans

* HateSink: All First Sages, except [[EnsembleDarkHorse Sulkaris]] and maybe [[DeathEqualsRedemption Demoko]]. For all their long age and powers, the First Sages are pretty much like spoiled chidlren that wanted to use the power that the Goddesses granted them without wanting responsibilities entrusted on them. They only care about themselves, seeing mortals, who they were supposed to protect, as mere ants and have betrayed both their creators and siblings to put themselves as gods.

* {{Hypocrite}}: They revolted against the Goddesses because of the duties they had imposed on them. After the dust settled, they impose themselves as god-like figures to the mortals of Hyrule, even rewriting the history records to villify Sulkaris.

* FromASingleCell: All Gohma were born from him and are bound to him, so he will live as long the ny single Gohma exists. After all Gohma are fused into him, every damage he takes is represented with some minor gohma coming out from his body.
* FusionDance: Sulkaris merges all Gohma, both dead and alive, on Misery Mire to create a new body for Iemanis.

* PosthumousCharacter: Iemanis was killed by Majora long, long before the events of Hyrule Conquest. Subverted that, while his body may have been destroyed, his Will survived under every living Gohma. Sulkaris later fuses all Gohma to reform Iemanis' body.
