It's Hyrule Warriors' 10th Anniversary for me today, so ofc I'm gonna post more of the project I'm doing to commemorate it.

So here we have Zelda in her Argorok inspired fit. I wanted to lean into the armor and go for more of a full set. I'm not particularly skilled or experienced with drawing armor, but I think it turned out well. The clothing under her armor is meant to represent the scales. I even gave her a lower cape (?) to reference the wings.

She also has the Master Sword bc the pose I chose didn't work with her sword lmao

OH YEAH, fun fact I played TP for 11 hours straight just to get reference images bc there's not a lot for Argorok

Based on any criteria: whoever was the most fun to fight, the coolest or most clever design, the hardest battle, general vibes, etc.

Horrible horrible theory: Argorok in tp is somehow a corrupted version of the crimson loftwing

HAHAHA IVE FIGURED IT OUT

A word of advice to video game designers: whatever your enemy loot drop rates are, just double it. Because I guarantee they’re too low right now.

Unrewarding loot grinding sucks, no one likes killing 50 of an enemy type and only getting 3 drops, especially if that drop is a crafting material that they need 50 of.

Been a while.

Still drawing Salamence.

Fun fact; I can only imagine Salamence roaring like Argorok, from Twilight Princess.

(35 seconds into this vid)

Also, I may have thought of a different direction for the side thingies.

Feavvery. :>

On a list of most likely to be part dragon to least likely to be part dragon, where would you put each link in the chain?

Well I'm probably biased BUT

Warriors is at the top, since he interacts very regularly with a dragon(knight) and I really do just think they look similar. they do. They also act somewhat as narrative foils (both are prideful, Volga continues down the path, Link turns back due to his friends, blah blah) so I just. yeah. I'm convinced Volga is legitimately his dad.

Sky is probably right around there with him, just because he interacts with his dragons the most extensively, and they all seem pretty fond of him (...in their own ways lol. lookin at you Faron). I'd make him related to the thunder dragon personally, though that would probably lead to some very strange paradoxes in regards to how Sky exists lol

Wind I think is next, since he's got the next-friendliest dragon who he interacts with a fair amount. I don't have much reasoning apart from that (though Valoo does burn down the fort of the guy who nearly killed him multiple times, so there is that), but it would be plausible at least.

Wild is next I guess, since he's got dragons that aren't enemies. He even helps Naydra a whole bunch at that one part, who's to say he couldn't (somehow??) be related to her? Mom? Naydra mom?? I'm writing that down actually that could be really interesting–

For everyone else I'd say it's probably about the same amount of likelihood (which is to say, slim). You could maybe make a case for Time being related somehow if you factor in the manga thing with Volvagia, but that's about it. Same with Twilight, you could borrow the manga thing with Argorok, though I would edit some of that a bit personally.

Legend's dragons are all bosses as far as I know (though gemesaur king-related Legend would be COOL), which is actually a little surprising. Maybe you could contrive something with that dancing dragon dungeon though. Maybe.

Four just has Gleerok, a fiery dragon boss. Again, you could borrow from the manga and have it be a corrupted dragon, but it seems more creaturey to me so that might get weird.

Least likely is Hyrule I think. He's got like three dragons and all are bosses. though I guess you could make an argument for him having the same colored eyes as Aquamentus and Gleeok's scales. That's pretty much it tho.

Once again, I have been thinking. This time about Twilight's fear of fire.

Twilight has been in two burning buildings, with the other being partly his fault. One burning bridge, he fought Darbus, who at the time was Fyrus, who was constantly on fire until knocked down and fought a fire breathing dragon, Argorok. In a way, in all of these situations, the fire was uncontrollable.

I remember reading one or two fics, where Twilight's pyrophobia was addressed. And I developed a headcanon that Twilight's fear isn't that big with controlled fire, like campfires, but it is still there and he can stay up for hours watching the fire to make sure that it doesn't go out of control. And the Chain have to use any possible method to get Twilight to rest or go check the perimeter.

If I remember correctly, Warriors likes to use the fire rod when fighting enemies. I can just imagine how terrified Twilight is knowing that someone has the power of fire. Or more accurately, he's terrified of the fire rod itself. Yes, it is powerful, but Twilight knows far too well how dangerous fire is, even if its power is used for a good cause.
