Name: Zant
Where did they come from? [Name the fandom]: Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
History:Zant was part of the royal line in the Twii's race; a race of people shut off in the twilight realm for eternity. He was to be the next to inherit the throne, but instead Midna took his place before him, causing him to gain a growing hate for the Twii and their entrapment within the twilight realm. In the midst of Zant's grief, Ganandorf appeared before him masquerading as a god and extended an offer to Zant: To give Zant part of his power so that Zant could break off the encasement of the twilight realm so that Ganandorf could also escape the twilight realm. Using his new power, Zant usurped Midna and gained the title of "The Usurper King," and continued on to conquer the world of light by bathing it in Twilight; known as Hyrule.
Personality: At first, Zant emits a cold, collective, and foreboding presence. The few appearances he takes before Link breaks into the Twilight Realm to face him reveals him to be cold and callous. Each one of his moves was made with careful calculation, and exertion of his seemingly limitless power. Zant merely hides a childish, angry personality though with this mask of collective evil. When confronted for the last time, Zant is bubbling with insanity and childish fury; to the point of him seeming like a completely different person than he was before. Whether this change was caused by Ganandorf's power influencing him, or if his insanity came from other means is unknown.

Abilities: Zant has been infused with Ganon's magic in addition to his own royal Twii abilities. He has powerful magic that can be at times, outside of one's comprehension. Powerful illusion, and many strange magics are at his disposal. He even attempted to turn giant and squash link underfoot during one portion of the battle with him! Despite his status as a mage though, Zant's physical abilities, although untrained, are raw and physically powerful; demonstrated by his ability to use the hurricane spin attack in a fight with Link. His fighting style is sporadic, and he is desperate like a cornered animal. Outside of battle, Zant has power over the twilight, and the ability to summon and command corrupted Twii.
Weaknesses: Zant's one-and-all solution is immediate destruction of opposition; showing him incapable of manipulation. He is immature, a charlatan, and fearful of anything willing to stand against him. Inside battle, Zant is merely an animal. Even though Zant is tough enough to withstand multiple strikes from a sword, he is particularly vulnerable to over exerting himself and has low endurance. Through all the weaknesses though, his main one is his inability think in battle; Zant's mind becomes literally unhinged whenever he is forced into a difficult situation. Sporadic, childish, and insane; Zant looses any semblance of a mind. This leaves him highly predictable, and easily fooled. Zant also has a very low tolerance for pain, and one hit either stuns him or spurs him to thoughtlessly flee.
Anything you want to add?: Zant currently has control over his minions. The majority of the time, these minions will appear instead of Zant, and will be sent to do his dirty work. Minions will only appear in areas appropriate for them, (Ei, fire monsters show up in fire like areas, but not in ice areas.). They will be described as they are sent out. Once a "boss" monster sent to a world, it will remain there until killed. When they appear in the story, they will be assigned areas. NOTE: Not all bosses and mini bosses from TP are included, because not all are under Zant's control. Only those under Zant's control will be listed.
Mini Bosses (Easy):
Ook-Area unknown
Shadow Insect Queen-Area unknown
Deku Toad-Area unknown
Death Sword-Area unknown
Phantom Zant-Area unknown
King Bulblin-Area unknown
Bosses (Difficult):
Diababa-Area unknown
Fyrus-Location pre-determined, Death Mountain
Morpheel-Area unknown
Stallrod-Not yet created.*
Armogohma-Infesting Zebes
Argorok-Area unknown
*Zant has the ability to conjure "Stallrod" from any large skeleton using the Twilight Sword. Any body, (There was nothing special about the skeleton used for Stallrod; all powers that it wielded were given to it by the sword), can be reanimated.
