Onox a Gerudo? (Oracle spoilers)

Inferno



The Culprit. The general of darkness and villan in OOS. Onox at first appearance looks the same as any big, badass super villan would in a zelda game, but closer inspection reveals that he may not be all we first thought ... Right there on the middle of chest is a symbol, looks familiar? That is the mark of the Gerudo.

Onox looks just like an iron knuckle which in OOT were portrayed as minions of Twinrova, Ganondorf's adopted 'parents.'

At the end of OOS it is revealed that Onox too was a minion of Twinrova and that all his efforts were in order to bring Ganon back from the dead. Now tell me this why would a powerful man of unknown origin want to bring the infamous (ex)king of the Gerudo's back to life?

All signs point to the fact that Onox is the destined male child of the Gerudo people, a male that is born only once every 100 years. I mean seriously the way he is presented: Strong, an extreme lust for power and destruction? these traits sound awfully familiar to me *cough* Ganondorf. Then there is the mark of the Gerudo embedded on his chest plate, a clear sign of his allegiance. His undergarmets too have a Gerudo feel to them. Finally there is his whole connection to Twinrova and the revival of Ganon.

Now this is a bit contradictory but I was hoping maybe someone could help me fit it into the theory, with the theory itself remaining valid, below is a quote from Onox himself.

"Gwah hah hah!
I was summoned
from the Dark
Realm by
Twinrova.
See my true
form! Feel the
might of a
dark dragon!"

Now that is very interesting. Onox was summoned from the dark realm, maybe he is not the king of the Gerudo's after all? Onox then goes on to say...

"Gurrrgh... No...
It's too late.
My orders were
to capture Din
and deliver the
destructive
power of a
seasonless land
to Twinrova.
Now, as the
Flame of
Destruction,
that power is
set to devour
this land!
Gah, hah, hah..."

The king of the Gerudo's wouldn't be take orders from anyone else would he?
As for his true form being a dragon, yes that may be true however he may just be meaning his true potential.

So what do you think? could Onox truly be the great leader of the Gerudo? all comments and critisism are welcome!

Hi no Seijin

If he was summoned by Twinrova, I doubt it.  And the Gerudo symbol can be found on blocks and all sort of things in OoT.  You might as well say the Great Deku Tree is a Gerudo because the blocks inside him have the Gerudo symbol on it.  And Onox's true form is a dragon, not a human, as the King of the Gerudos would be.  There aren't even any Gerudos in OoS, or at least any that I'm aware of.

When Onox says his true form is a dark dragon I don't think he means it the way some have ben lead to believe, he just means his most powerful form, just as Ganaondorf might call 'pig' Ganon his true form.
There may be marks of the Gerudo in blocks in the deku tree, but we're talking about the general of darkness who bears the crest on his armor, he is definately showing some form of allegience, which we already know, we don't know however if there is a possibility that he is king of the Gerudo.

Hi no Seijin

What I'm saying is that the Gerudo may manufactue some stuff for the Hylians and they put their symbol on everything they make.  That suit of armor may have just been made by the Gerudo.
