The Legend of Zelda Wii U

It seems like Ganondorf mostly relies on feral monsters to do his bidding. Still, while they're few in number, we have been introduced to some colorful and entertaining henchmen over the course of the series. This is a poll paying homage to those henchmen. To make it on this list a villain needs to meet three criteria:

1. He or she actually has to be working for Ganondorf. Plenty of villains don't meet that requirement (e.g. Moblin King, Vaati, etc.)

2. He or she has to be humanoid, or capable of a humanoid form, and not just a feral monster (sorry Helmaroc King, I still love you).

3. He or she, preferably, can't be brainwashed or possessed (e.g. Nabooru). I've made one exception for a fan favorite, mostly so I won't get yelled at. :)

So, with that being said, go ahead and choose your favorite Ganondorf minion! Also, keep in mind your choice can be based on whatever criteria you want (e.g. character design, backstory, how awesome their actual boss fight is, etc.) I'm interested to see who the fan favorites are and why.

Twinrova: The Gerudo witch sisters who raised Ganondorf when he was just a boy. They're probably the reason he's such a proficient magic user. After Ganondorf died, they conspired to raise their "son" from the dead in the Oracle games . . . and succeeded. They're probably his most loyal minions.

Veran: She's one of the two minions Twinrova recruits to resurrect Ganondorf. Like Twinrova and Ganondorf, she appears to be a powerful Gerudo magic user, but in reality she's a demonic fairy from the dark realm. Her boss fight involves her polymorphing into a variety of different, monstrous looking animals and beating the **** out of Link.

General Onox: The other minion trying to resurrect Ganondorf. As a General, he's very high ranking in Ganondorf's forces. He wears golden iron knuckle armor with a Gerudo symbol emblazoned on his chest. It might seem strange that Ganondorf has a male commanding his armies, considering that Gerudo males are only born once every one hundred years, but during Link's boss fight with Onox he reveals he's actually a dragon summoned from the dark realm.

King Bulblin: He leads Ganondorf's bulblin forces in Twilight Princess, raining terror down upon Hyrule's desolate countryside and its adjoining provinces. As far as we know, he's the only bulblin capable of speech. Probably lower ranking than some of the other minions on this list, it's not clear whether he takes orders directly from Ganondorf or from Zant.

Zant: A power hungry Twili usurper who stole Midna's throne and christened himself the King of Twilight. He worships Ganondorf as if he were a god . . . as far as he knows, Ganondorf actually is a god. Most of his power seems to actually stem from Ganondorf, and it isn't clear if he's a powerful sorcerer in his own right or just a normal Twili.

Zant was awesome

tho how he acted at the end of TP was kinda......bizzare o_O yet still in character

Fight to preserve that which inspires hope - Ezio Auditore

Onox was awesome if only because he made for a great boss battle

Press Left to brofist.

She actually got a vote on the Skyward Sword forum.

She is different from the others on the list though in that you never actually fight her, just her enforcers.

***Oracle Games MAJOR spoiler****

I wouldn't really consider Veran and General Onox to be minions of Ganondorf, or more accurately, Ganon. They have their own desires and motives, and Twin Rova's plot felt like more of an afterthought on their part, and they are involved mainly just because they like being evil. Kinda simple, but it works.
