Master Kohga

is a recurring character and Series: in.

Master Kohga is the Leader of the BotW:, an opposing Clan to the BotW: who hunt BotW: on a ceaseless mission. Master Kohga is a respected figure of authority, but he spends most of his time napping and loafing around. NaN Mighty Bananass are what Master Kohga loves most. Master Kohga is known to possess many secrets about the BotW:.

BotW: meets Master Kohga during the "BotW:" BotW: outside of the exit of the BotW: in an open area with a large pit in the center. Master Kohga will recognize that BotW: is the hero he has been searching for and initiates a battle. After defeating Master Kohga, he will use his last bit of energy to perform his "secret technique", which backfires and causes him to fall down the large pit in the center of the area. While falling down the pit, Master Kohga is heard yelling that he shall be remembered and the BotW: will track BotW: to the ends of Hyrule. As a reward, BotW: will receive a BotW: containing the BotW:.

The fight against Master Kohga consists of three phases, each of which utilizes his control over magnetism and levitation. In the first phase, Master Kohga conjures up a rock above him to hurl at BotW:. Striking Master Kohga from afar as he levitates in the air, such as with a BotW:, BotW: or thrown BotW:, will break his focus and cause the rock to fall on his head. This temporarily stuns Master Kohga, partially burying him in the ground and allowing BotW: to attack him unopposed. In the second phase, he levitates above the large pit nearby and conjures up two rocks that spin around him. BotW: must hit Master Kohga when one of the rocks is directly above his head, causing it to once again fall on his head and stun him. In the third and final phase, he conjures up a fortified boulder to attempt to crush BotW:. BotW: must use BotW: to gain control of the boulder and push it back towards Kohga. This will stun Kohga once again and give BotW: the opportunity to finish the fight. In all phases, he is protected by a blue shield which disappears when he goes offensive in the first two stages but remains permanently during the third. NaN Ancient Arrows act like normal arrows when he is hit with one, and Master Kohga and his boulders cannot be stopped with BotW: at any time. He is the only notable BotW: to display this, as even BotW: can be placed under Stasis.

Series: retroactively debuts in, first disguising himself as HWAoC: to try and turn the Gerudo against Zelda, but is zapped by the real HWAoC:. He is later defeated but is saved by HWAoC: at the last minute. He is later shown working alongside HWAoC: as he explains about Ganon's HWAoC:, and the role the Demon King will play in due time.

Later, the Hyrulean Army raids his hideout and defeats them, despite his best efforts. Kohga berates Astor for missing the show and wants HWAoC: to kill him, though they relent when the prophet ominously explains that Kohga and the HWAoC: would become enemies of HWAoC: by harming him.

Later, after Ganon awakens on Zelda's 17th birthday, and the Blight Ganons are stopped from killing the NaN Championss like they were supposed to in, he objects to Astor harvesting souls from his men to revive the Blight Ganons, and is almost killed himself by a Hollow of Link, but HWAoC: intervenes and tells him to run, stating that he would give his life to protect him. Kohga ultimately chooses to stay and fight alongside him. The outcome of the battle is unknown but is implied that HWAoC: was killed. After Zelda has awakened her power and rallies the Hylians, he sheds his Hyrulean Soldier disguise and bows before Zelda, joining the Hyrulean forces in order to avenge his betrayed clan.
