TotK, late game quest reward, zero main story spoilers, just sidequest things + speculating
So puzzled by this guy I honestly think Zelda team is trolling us w this one. I don't even buy that they're part Zonai. I'm not holding my breath for additional info either.
Anyway first impression was that whatever he is, the Hylian part of him is Gerudo, so I mediated on this guy while drawing the voe set, how I like to do.
I figure that the body paint and clothes that he's shown with are like, his Royal guard outfit or something? As always trying to consider some choices might just be reusing assets (in game he's just wearing the Zoanite armor, and painted like all the Hylians we see, who all seem to be guards or soldiers)
The tail and the leg shape is what's throwing me off so bad, these are not Zonai traits? Other than the greyish color and snout I don't think he has anything in common w the Zonai at all. Still the simplest explanation of course. THEN AGAIN we have such a small pool of examples that one more Confirmed Zonai could change how we understand them.
Anyway as far as the palette and his jewelry go, they seem to be implying an important part of him is Gerudo. I do think it's implied he's the 8th heroine figure also!
happy speculating
