I love how the Gorons aren't scared of Midna and Wolf Link

"Good evening lil miss, nice night for riding eh?"

I love Gorko. He's my favorite character in this entire game

Especially with my headcanon of Skyward Sword Link wanting to be a scholar? I know he's just soaking up all of his friend's research

Say hello to this incredible reference piece of Danmalaak, put together by the ever-amazing @songs-of-the-windfish!

Lore under the cut ^^

Danmalaak is non-native to Hyrule, coming to the Kingdom from a far-off archipelago called the Alae Islands. His people there are much more predisposed to water travel than your average Eldin goron, as their affinity to pumice and salt allow them to bob effortlessly on the ocean's waters. In fact, Danmalaak's buoyancy is so strong, that he has to wear a weighted diving belt to explore the ocean depths!

Of course, Danmalaak's water affinity does not stop there. The glass-like material covering the salt crystals on his back is a trademark "glaze" his people use to smooth out those nooks and crannies. It gives his body a more torpedo-like shape that helps reduce drag when swimming,, allowing him to swim surprisingly fast through the waves. It's fairly common for his people to switch between glazes as they age, repairing gouges and adding layers as they get older. As a result, elder Alaeans often look like cracked-open jawbreakers, showing layers of encrusted glaze that shimmer under the sunlight!

The sapphires across Danmalaak's front are a deliberate nod to stereotypical sailor outfits. It's also a bit of a nod to his sillier nature (even if his swim trunks are a much more obvious indicator). While Danmalaak's a fairly responsible fellow, having run a successful salvage scow before his current stint in Hyrule, his camaraderie with Cironus' goofball persona has equipped him with a lethal barrage of Dad Jokes. Expect your groaner threshold to explode when in the vicinity of these two!

Thank you again, @songs-of-the-windfish! You art is always fantastic <3

Conversations that happened in my head today:

Me: "okay so lemme get this straight."

Kevin, the brain goblin: "okay"

Me: "in the legend of zelda there are no female gorons."

Kevin: "yup"

Me: "but gorons reproduce?"

Kevin: "no. They're made from rocke"

Me: "BUT YUNOBO!?"

Kevin: "he's not Daruk's literal grandson he's just... Like... Spiritual"

Me: "HOW DOES HE HAVE DARUK'S PROTECTION THEN?"

Kevin: "idfk"

Me: ".... Okay... So why are they allowed in Gerudo town?"

Kevin: "I'm fairly sure it's just a technicality."

Me: "Gerudo town does not do technicalities."

Kevin: "some fans also think there are female gorons they just look so similar to male gorons nobody can tell the difference."

Me: "... I mean hey we love an agender diva."

Kevin: "that's not how agender works."

Me: "shut up Kevin"

A flat color full body commission I did of a Goron Poe in the style of the OoT/MM Composer brothers.

THIS IS A COMMISSION. DO NOT REPOST, USE, SAVE, OR USE TO TRAIN AI.

I'll start uploading my art through here, may be digital or traditional

Here's one of them!

For a little context, my OC's name is Vilah, they're sheikah and they have a zonai armor (I'll explain the whole lore ASAP). Anyway, enjoy(?
