Thunderblight Ganon (2024)

Summary

Thunderblight Ganon is one of the four phantoms Calamity Ganon had created during the Great Calamity a century prior to the events of Breath of the Wild.

Thunderblight Ganon was responsible for the death of Urbosa and kept her soul imprisoned in the Divine Beast Vah Naboris which it had also taken control of. When Link awoke from his stasis he eventually made his way into Vah Narboris in the Gerudo Desert and destroyed the phantom, freeing Urbosas spirit who took back control of the Divine Beast.
