In my upcoming fanfic "Legend Of Zelda: Triforce Legacy", the bad guys are Kyronians. The Kyronians are a technologically advanced, by Hryule standards anyway, race that believe themselves to be superior to all others. They've even gone so far as to rank all the known species. ()= Derogatory term.

1. Kyronians
2. Hylians(?)
3. Gerudos(Sand Harlots)
4. Zoras(Fish Heads)
5. Gorons(Rock Bellies)
6. Deku(?)

You may notice the Kokiri aren't on the list. That's because the Kyronians have no idea the Kokiri exist.

Anyways, here's what I need some help with. Keeping in mind that Kyronians don't look very different than Hylians, what would be some good derogatory terms for Hylians and Deku?

Well Deku aren't really a race, by the standards of Zelda, anyway. They are more of a collection of things under that catogory. But for the Hylians, well, that's a hard one. By the way, what exactly is a fanfic, and what will yours roughly be about?

Fanfic: A writing about a previously scripted work. Ex: Star Wars fanfic, Zelda fanfic. Author makes up details and plotlines centered around setting or characters.

I would consider the term "Lower Mortals..." and Dekus? Um..."Bush Mongers?"

For Hylians they could be called the "long ears".

How about calling Hylians "Elves"? Now, that would be fun.
