Triforce of Power



The Triforce of Power, together with the Triforce of Wisdom and the Triforce of Courage, compose the complete Triforce.

According to lore in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, the Triforce of Power embodies the power and strength of the goddess Din. When Ganondorf attempted to lay his hands on the Triforce, the Triforce sensed the imbalance within him, and he gained only the Triforce of Power. He retained it after his defeat and imprisonment. In The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, the Triforce of Power alerts him to the presence of Princess Zelda. He finally loses it when the Triforce is reunited and he is defeated by Link.

In The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Ganondorf is given the Triforce of Power despite not touching the Triforce (explained by the Sages as a "divine prank"). It allows him to survive his execution, but is lost after he is stabbed through the chest by Link's Master Sword.

In The Legend of Zelda, Ganon has stolen the Triforce of Power, which Link must regain after defeating him.
