Fire Manipulation - Ganondorf has the power over fire to such a degree as to create rings of fire around he and an opponent, create keese out of flames, hurl fireballs, and so on. >(A Link to the Past, Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess)
Energy Orbs - His signature attack is glowing balls of energy, these having an electrical power to them. They can be repelled by enchanted blades (and magic bottles...). He is capable of summoning a far more powerful version that sends several of these orbs at once, preventing them from being reflected. >(Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess)
Dark Energy - A strange purple energy created using Gerudo dark magic. It is capable of creating small bursts of power, sometimes used as projectiles. If unarmed, Ganondorf will combine them with his punches and kicks to increase the force of his blows. >(Ocarina of Time, Super Smash Bros.)
Dark Wave - Similar to the above, Ganondorf sends a powerful wave of dark energy at an opponent, immobilizing them. It is not powerful enough to hurt them and the spell must be used continuously. >(Ocarina of Time)
Levitation - Ganondorf is able to levitate indefinitely. It's not quite like flying and he can only go so fast while using it. >(Ocarina of Time)
Invisibility - In the absence of bright light, Ganondorf can cloak himself into the darkness and become invisible. The more light there is, the more he can be seen. In complete darkness, he is not only transparent, but he also is intangible. >(Legend of Zelda, A Link to the Past)
Lightning Manipulation - Beyond his energy orbs, he can also create bursts of lightning directed at his foe. These incredibly powerful bolts can cover a large range. >(A Link to the Past)
Mind Control - Ganondorf is capable of forcing his will on others, usually those who are weak willed or who are in a weakened mental state. He can either merely influence them into being his minions or quite literally enter their body to take over. >(A Link to the Past, Twilight Princess)
Shapeshifting - A limited ability in itself, Ganondorf can give into his rage and become a monstrous (but otherwise mindless) beast of great power. In this form, only the Master Sword (and other evil-banishing weapons) are capable of harming him. >(Ocarine of Time, Twilight Princess)
Phantoms - Ganondorf has the ability to create phantoms of himself. These copies are powerful, but not quite as powerful as their master. These phantoms are completley loyal to him, but have some degree of sentience. The most powerful of these, Aghanim, assumed an independant identity. He can also create weaker phantoms to join him in attacks, though they are easily dispelled. >(A Link to the Past, Ocarina of Time, The Wind Waker, Four Swords Adventures, Twilight Princess)
Transformation - Ganondorf is able to transform creatures with his magic, usually to make them more powerful, usually in tandem with mind control. Using Ganon's power, Zant was able to transform Midna into a mere imp. >(Twilight Princess, assumed for most boss enemies in other games)
Crystal Prison - Once an enemy is at his mercy, Ganondorf can trap them inside an impenetrable crystal, even shrinking the crystal if he so chooses. He prefers only to do this with prisoners he may have need of again. These crystals only remain active so long as he wills them to be. >(A Link to the Past, Ocarina of Time)
Shockwaves - By punching the ground with enough concentrated magic, he can create shockwaves powerful enough to damage the ground around him, even destroying the floor below him. >(Ocarina of Time)
Ganondorf APPEARANCE: Ganon is a very tall dude that towers over everyone. He has a kind of olive green skin and bright orange-red hair. He looks like this. HEIGHT: At least 7'2. I have no canon height, but that's what I peg him as. WEIGHT: Heavy. Possibly somewhere around 400 lbs. POSTURE: Straight and tall with a posture fit for a king. VOICE: No canon voice. I like to pretend he sounds like this. ITEMS: He usually is decked out in his armor because he's practical like that. He has silly forehead jewelry too. Probably not a good idea to make fun of it. PECULIARITIES: It's impossible to tell where his eyebrows end. ANYTHING ELSE? He has a Triforce symbol on his right hand, though his glove covers it unless he is in close proximity to another person in possession of one.
