History

End of the Timelines

10,000 years before Breath of the Wild

The Divine Beast Vah Naboris was created over 10,000 years before the events of Breath of the Wild by the Sheikah, along with the other Divine Beasts and the Guardians, to fight Calamity Ganon. At the time, four Champions were chosen to pilot the Divine Beasts, who directly attacked Ganon to held the princess of Hyrule and the chosen hero wielding the Master Sword. They succeeded and Ganon was sealed away for more than 10,000 years.

Rediscovering the Divine Beasts

110 years before the events of Breath of the Wild, the Royal Family of Hyrule was warned by a fortune teller of the return of Ganon. In preparation of his return, the Divine Beasts were rediscovered after being excavated and like in the old legend, four Champions were chosen to pilot them. The Gerudo Champion, Urbosa, was chosen to pilot the Divine Beast Vah Naboris.

100 years before Breath of the Wild

However, despite the efforts of the Royal Family, Calamity Ganon surprised them by corrupting and taking control of the ancient Sheikah technology. Thunderblight Ganon, a being created by Calamity Ganon was sent to kill Urbosa and take control of the Divine Beast. Princess Zelda used her power to contain Ganon in Hyrule Castle and his influence on the Divine Beasts was weakened.

During Breath of the Wild

A century later, Calamity Ganon's power grew strong enough to remotely control the Divine Beasts once more even if he was still imprisoned in the castle. Vah Naboris started to wander the East Barrens of the Gerudo Desert, threatening the inhabitants of the Gerudo Desert with the risk of being struck from its lightning should it travel too close to the Divine Beast. With the help of Makeela Riju and the Thunder Helm, Link temporarily shut down and go inside the Divine Beast. There he destroys Thunderblight Ganon and free the soul of Urbosa who assume control over the Divine Beast and place it in firing position with Ganon as target. For freeing the Gerudo, Link is rewarded with Urbosa's Fury, which allow him to command lightning.

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity

Divine Beast Vah Naboris played a major role in the game and Urbosa is chosen to control it to keep Calamity Ganon at bay and makes use of its ability to project lightning from its humps and stampede through the field to run over foes. After discovering the Yiga Clan Hideout with the Sheikah Towers, Urbosa uses it to lead a full-frontal assault against the Yiga Clan to take them out within due to them previously causing them problems. When the Great Calamity begins, it quickly sent forth shards of itself to deal with the Champions and take the Divine Beasts; however, as Terrako summoned the time portals to bring back the future warriors, Thunderblight Ganon's attempted murder and hijacking was thwarted, Urbosa is still alive, and retains control over Vah Naboris. Urbosa works together with Riju to take down thousands of monsters and Guardians around Fort Hateno before they are overwhelmed, but the other surviving Champions arrive to assist them in taking out the remaining forces and eventually fires a laser at Calamity Ganon to weaken it.
