Malon rough sketch

Malon:
"I said I didn't want this circus we are in… I guess I never really meant it…"

Ah, Malon, the sweet, innocent, helpless, ranch girl, right? Wrong! She's a very secure girl, with very high spirits, self confident, independent, very protective, loving and a great Gerudo dancer.

Malon's days go by between Lon-Lon ranch, the Forest Temple, Hyrule's City and the Gerudo Fortress; delivering milk, hanging around with Ari and finally going for hard training with her cousin, Dizi, in the Gerudo's Training Grounds. Most of the training involves a lot of sparring with Dizi and Ari, not that Malon complains or anything but that usually means that she'll end up daydreaming about Ari the whole time X)

That outfit she's wearing is of Gerudo design, she uses it because she's half Gerudo. Usually, she'd have been born with small and round ears and topaz eyes but the Hylian blood of her father was very strong so she only inherited the dark skin and crimson hair of the Gerudos and long ears and blue eyes of her father. That means she has a great empathy, soul reading, elemental resistance and a great condition. She's a gifted dancer since very young, something she inherited from her mother.

Her mother, Canti, died when Malon was very young, around 4 years old, and she became a very lonely girl who hid her pain and problems behind a sweet smile and songs. When she met Link and Ari she started to see the world with a new light and soon she became very attached of the blond girl. Just like the other girl, Malon is deeply in love with Ari but has many problems trying to get to tell her about her feelings; mostly because she feels she isn't good enough for Ari.

Even though here you see her using a skirt, Malon is a great fighter; she uses the Danza style, a Gerudo battle style that uses fluid and rhythmic movements to fight and give little space for the opponent to counterattack. She uses battle claws to fight but she excels in the use of the bow and a very large variety of spells and summoning; just like Link, she can project her spiritual energies into the arrows to cast powerful long-range spells.
This Malon is a Lone Thief of the Gerudos, meaning that she knows some of the most powerful ice magic in the world of Toerre.

She usually hangs around with Ari or with the other spell casters of the group like Numi, Medli, Teneo, Maple and Asmodeus.
