Onox, General of Darkness, is the main villain of Oracle of Seasons.

Background

Onox was a dark dragon whom Twinrova summoned from the Dark Realm to toss the seasons into chaos and bring destruction to the land of Holodrum to light the Torch of Destruction, one of three torches needed to perform the Dark Rites and revive the Evil King Ganon. He takes on the form of a large armored human with a mace who can summon magic tornadoes in addition to his natural strength, and is sent to Holodrum. He starts his conquest by tracking down the Oracle of Seasons, Din, and imprisoning her in a crystal. Afterwards he caused the Temple of Seasons to sink into the earth, messing up the seasons of Holodrum.

General Onox simply sat and waited in his castle with Din while Holodrum withered around him. But one boy, Link, fought his way into Onox's castle and engaged the general in battle. His thick armor could only be penetrated by the Master Sword- or by the Noble Sword with spin attacks. When Onox realized he was losing, he started using Din's crystal as a shield, as it would shock Link with electricity whenever he hit it. Depsite this Onox lost the battle.

But the General of Darkness was not done with yet. He forced Link down to the basement and transformed into his true dragon form to fight Link and continuously spat fireballs at the hero. But Link could ride on Onox's hand and leap from the hand to slash the ruby in Onox's forehead- his weakness. Eventually Onox was destroyed, but he knew his death was not in vain- the Torch of Destruction had been lit, and Twinrova was now one step closer to reviving Ganon.

Other Appearances

• General Onox was featured in the Oracle of Seasons manga. His powers were expanded on, as plants withered wherever he walked and he was accompanied by a black fog that could cloud people's minds and was used to extract Link's life force (until Din revived him). In the finale he was destroyed by a combination attack from Link, Maple and Ricky.

Trivia

• Sometimes in the games he's accidentally called Knox.
• His design is nearly identical to Iron Knuckles in Ocarina of Time, with the only difference being his weapon of choice.
