Zaleen (Total War)

Zaleen is a high ranking Zora Diplomat and advisor, he is present during the destruction of Domain Prime and later helps rebuild the Dominion with his second wife Princess Ruto.

First Golden Age
Zaleen becomes friends with Princess Ruto while they are still very young and is often caught performing perverted displays with her. Eventually her father King Farkos becomes increasingly disturbed by their relationship and forbids her from interacting with Zaleen. This does not dissuade the two, and they continue to see each other in secret.

Around 90 AG Princess Ruto is violently beaten to death by Zaleen's father, who fell into a drunken rage. Zaleen brings Ruto's dead body to Jabun whom he fasts in front of and prays to for nearly a week to bring Ruto back from the dead. Moved by his dedication, Jabun names Princess Ruto the next Sage of Water and she is restored to life with his powers.

However, later Zaleen also himself becomes irritated by Ruto's spoiled and haughty behaviour, so he chooses to marry Telara instead of her.

Gerudo Wars
In 100 AG, when King Farkos is away on Death Mountain during an invasion of the Goron rupee mine Gor Forgaru, Laruto, an ambassador from Lanayru Province, arrives at the Zora Dominion and asks for a trade agreement between the Dominion and Lanayru. Ruto flatly refuses, claiming that it would cause the half-breeds from Lanayru to come taint the purebloods, even though Ruto herself is a half-breed as well, in spite of Zaleen's advice. Zaleen leaves the meeting early, but quickly returns to warn Ruto and Laruto when he sees an army of River Zora and aliens invading the capital.

In the caverns underneath the capital, Zaleen helps Laruto and Ruto kill the Twili General Onox. However, when the Zora and the Twili are occupied, the River Zora have planted numerous Sols around the capital, and with Onox dead, they abandon their Twili allies and detonate the Sols, demolishing Domain Prime. The Twili are routed, but the Zora Dominion was no more.

Zaleen quickly leaves the Zora Dominion and becomes a priest in the Temple of Time.
