Koume (コウメ Koume?) and Kotake (コタケ Kotake?) are recurring characters in the Legend of Zelda series. They are the surrogate mothers of the Gerudo King, Ganondorf, and loyal to his cause. In the parallel world of Termina in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask they are friendly characters, as opposed to being antagonists. Koume, the red, has power over fire, while Kotake, the blue, has power over ice.
