Goron Elder

The Goron Elder is a recurring character in the Zelda series, first appearing in Majora's Mask.

Majora's Mask
The Goron Elder is an aged Goron who appears in Majora's Mask. He is the father of the Goron Elder's Son. On a quest to calm the child down, Link finds the Goron Elder frozen in ice. After freeing him using Hot Spring Water, he teaches Goron Link the Goron Lullaby introduction. Even when unfrozen, the Goron Elder will freeze in a prison of ice if let to stand in the cold.

Spirit Tracks
A Goron Elder also appears in Spirit Tracks, who lives in the Goron Village of the Fire Realm. Like Kagoron, the Elder has a starkingly ashy appearance, not to mention his tall height and heavy build, as compared to the other Gorons living about the village. The Goron Elder grants Link passage to the Fire Sanctuary, and its Lokomo, Embrose, via the passageway through his house at the apex of Goron Village, but only after he speaks with Kargoron and qualms the raging fire geysers that have quarantined portions of his town with Mega Ice from the Wellspring Station.

Upon meeting him, Princess Zelda is quite intimidated, and tries to encourage Link to make a good first impression. When word of Link's Mega Ice quest reaches the Elder, the Elder immediately warms up to Link, and in return steps aside so Link can use his house as a passage to the Fire Sanctuary.

Trivia

 * In Twilight Princess, Gor Ebizo appearance is very similar to that of the Goron Elder from Majora's Mask.
