Ganondorf is a ruthless warlord with a bloodthirsty craving for power and conquest. He desires to rule Hyrule through pure force and tyranny, advocating the demise of many, as a means of reshaping the kingdom in his own image. His malevolent nature is extremely transparent, to the point that Rauru and Zelda were able to immediately notice his deceit of declaring his loyalty to the royal family of Hyrule. It's for this very reason that he is hated by many, including the Gerudo.
