Sil Rhoam Bosphoramus

Sil Rhoam Bosphoramus was the fourty - sixth monarch of the Kingdom of Hyrule, ruling during the Rise of Ganon. He was the son of Syin Nohansen Bosphoramus, brother of Tolban Rhoam Bosphoramus, and father of Nylin Nohansen Zelda I and Rodlin Nohansen Sil.

Physical Characteristics
Sil was a stout male Hylian with blue eyes and white hair and beard. Despite his advancing age he remained physically fit enough to directly confront Ganon in full armor and weaponry, as well as survive being hurtled across his throne room into a pillar by the Moblin Warlord.

History


Before the Rise of Ganon
Sil was born to Syin Nohansen Hildro and Miphraru Rhoam Drodoramus along with his brother Tolban. As the elder of two male heirs he inherited the throne, married Ariane Nohansen Hildro, siring two children, Nylin and Rodlin.

Rise of Ganon
In the 26th year of Sil's reign, Hyrule was invaded by a gargantuan Moblin army under the command of Ganon, which swiftly conquered all territory south of the River Zora in a matter of months, as well as capturing his daughter.

As a precaution, Sil moved the Triforce from the throne in Hyrule Castle to the Water Temple at Hylia Marine, while marshaling his remaining armies to defend the capital at Gundrumether, putting them under the command of his son.

Several months later, after Ganon secured the Darknut Legion and Yiga Clan as allies, their combined armies assaulted the city with the largest force ever seen on the face of Hyrule. In the devastating siege, Sil's son was killed, the city's defenders and populace largely slaughtered, and the Castle breached. The Hylian King made his last stand in the Throne Room, mocking Ganon in hopes of delaying him, but was hurtled into a pillar and fatally wounded. The Yiga wizard Bongo managed to extract the location of the Trifroce from the dying king's mind via the Eye of Truth, but withheld the actual location from Ganon. Ganon allowed the captured Princess Nylin Nohansen Zelda I final words with her dying father before her own execution, in which Sil told his daughter to avenge her brother Rodlin and himself.

Trivia

 * In his original appearance, the King of Hyrule was intended to be a version of King Daphnes from The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. With the release of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, this King of Hyrule was instead changed to King Rhoam from said game, while King Kazakk was merged with King Nohansen.
