Yunobo

Yunobo is a playable character in Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity. A timid Goron who inherited the power of Goron Champion Daruk's Protection ability, he is summoned from 100 years into the future in Breath of the Wild back to the time of the Great Calamity to save Daruk from Fireblight Ganon and keep Divine Beast Vah Rudania under Hyrulean control.

Role In Game
As the Great Calamity breaks out, Daruk is in Vah Rudania struggling against Fireblight Ganon. Though his Protection allows him some degree of defense and being able to fight back, the Shard of Calamity Ganon proves too powerful, breaking Daruk's shield and sending him reeling. Seizing the opportunity, Fireblight Ganon fires a potentially fatal fireball at Daruk, but as Daruk defiantly braces himself for his death, with a shout, Yunobo plunges out of a time portal from 100 years in the future and uses his own version of Daruk's Protection to block the strike, saving Daruk's life. As the two of them fight off Fireblight Ganon, Yunobo is initially terrified, but with Daruk's reassurance, Yunobo regains his confidence and is ready to fight. Soon enough, they see Link has arrived. Pleased to see him, Daruk draws his sword as he is ready to throw down with Fireblight Ganon again.

After Fireblight Ganon is slain, Daruk thanks both Link and Yunobo for their assistance as, had it not been for them, he would have been a goner. Yunobo is a little sheepish about being a hero in saving his idol, but nevertheless, listens in as the older Prince Sidon explains to everyone about how he and Yunobo were summoned from the future to assist Daruk and Mipha. Daruk laughs it off as they can deal with it later, as their primary objective is what happened at Hyrule Castle as he asks Zelda what happened. Upon learning of the situation, Daruk and Yunobo take Vah Rudania and head for Akkala Citadel to assist. Watching Vah Rudania in action, Yunobo is amazed, but when he tries to call Daruk the "Great Daruk", he reminds Yunobo to cut the formalities. Yunobo apologizes, unsure if he can, but Daruk laughs it off, as right now, Hyrule needs them.

After successfully defending the Citadel and Fort Hateno from Ganon's massive army of monsters and corrupted Guardians, Yunobo and Daruk reinforce Urbosa and Riju with the other Divine Beasts, before all of them are summoned by Purah to unite Hyrule's various races into a single allied coalition to take back Hyrule Castle. Yunobo is impressed by the massive army that includes Gorons, Gerudo, Zoras, Rito, and Sheikah in Master Kohga and the Yiga Clan, and with Zelda leading them, they attack the castle.

After Yunobo and the others break through Ganon's remaining defenses of his most elite monsters and Guardians, they are confronted by Astor and Harbinger Ganon. After besting them both, Astor is then consumed by Harbinger Ganon to allow Calamity Ganon a chance to gain a perfected, physical form. Shortly thereafter, Link is forced to attack Terrako, the small Guardian that summoned Yunobo from the future, after Terrako is corrupted by Ganon's Malice, critically damaging it. Yunobo mourns for Terrako before Zelda, filled with fury and vengeance, declares Calamity Ganon's threat ends now.

Reaching the castle citadel, Calamity Ganon is ready for them, but despite everything that the heroes throw at him, Ganon is invulnerable to everything, until Terrako, despite its condition, runs in and heroically sacrifices itself to self-destruct on Ganon, breaking his defenses and rendering him vulnerable. After he is dealt enough damage by Yunobo and the others, Ganon is cleaved in half by Link with the Master Sword, before Zelda uses her awoken sealing magic to seal him away once more, saving Hyrule from his threat.

With Calamity Ganon gone, the heroes gather on the castle balcony, before the ancient screw Zelda salvaged after Terrako kamikazed itself to weaken Calamity Ganon begins to react, causing Teba, Riju, Yunobo, and Sidon to glow as well. With Hyrule saved and the Champions still alive, their mission was complete and it was time for them to return to their own timeline. After Daruk and Yunobo say goodbye, promising to never forget the time they spent together, Yunobo departs with the other future Champions to be returned to their own timeline.
