Homebrew Gerudo's Species Details

My name is Riju, descendant of the royal line and leader of the Gerudo people! With the power of the heirloom passed down in my family, I shall calm the Divine Beast Vah Naboris. Ancestors of the Gerudo! Answer my call! Aid me in this task!

-Riju, Gerudo Chief

The highly exclusive race of warrior women from the Gerudo desert are a sight to behold. As beautiful as they are deadly, the Gerudo march into combat with passion and drive. They may not live as long as the other races of Hyrule, but they will live life to its fullest because of this. 

Tanned and Fiery

The Gerudo have dark, tanned skin often paired with hair of fiery hues, red being the most common. They have pointed ears and pronounced pointed noses as defining facial features. Their large, sharp eyes offer an enchanting glare, which they often accentuate through the use of make-up.

The Gerudo women are proud of powerful bodies and dress accordingly, wearing long, light flowing fabrics, often showing their midriffs and golden jewelry adorned with gemstones. This theme carries on to their weaponry, as the Gerudo often adorn their signature scimitars, spears and bows in the same manner.
